i don't see anything wrong with trying to"copy"those things we admire about another person.

for example,i have some friends who i admire for their paitence,and in some cases wisdom.

I hope you didn't misunderstand me. I agree with what you said. It is just that I think it is not fair to ourself to compare ourself with others. Others have different capacities and capabilities than we do. To try to be something we are not will only cause inner confusion and will likely cause us to have a negative attitude about ourself.
