Actually, I experience something of the opposite. Other people's work falls into place in my own work. Forcing me to learn new things from them and that in itself is as important as being creative. Also, the stimulation of being with highly creative people in itself is something of a rush. It just makes me happy to see other people create and succeed. That said I believe there is a fine line between aping someone and getting inspired by someone, and that is something you have to navigate on your own. I don't know why, but I always think about Steve Jobs ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CW0DUg63lqU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CW0DUg63lqU) whenever I face something like this. It's like a metric. What can I learn from this which applied to my work makes it great?
