Why Do People Take Credit For Your Ideas?


Listen Later

Have you ever had an idea for something on your software project, but someone else takes the credit?

Plagiarism can be extremely frustrating, and it’s typically caused by narcissistic personality types.

In this episode, I share why this happens, how to prevent it – and how to cope with it.

I also share a personal story of when this has happened to me.

This sucks, there’s no way around it.

But if you’re creative enough to come up with new software development ideas, you can do it again!

I hope this episode helps you avoid this situation in the future, and have a healthy mindset if you unfortunately do get plagiarized.
