Stop trying to live someone else's life

Stop trying to live someone else's life.

I realize now that there are some people (especially one) for whom I have great esteem. And that, unconsciously, I try to copy my habits, my life to that person's life.

I find myself in situations where I ask myself: what would this person have done? How would they have reacted? Until then, normal, you might say.

But when it becomes an obsession, it's no longer normal in my opinion. I have to understand that as humans, we all have different experiences. And that our actions and reactions are conditioned by them.

I also need to understand that while it is normal to want to be inspired by other people's actions, this should not impinge on our own decision-making abilities.
