Perceptions

There was a nasty story about Obasanjo when I was small doing some black voodoo to kee Yar Adua or was it the infamous India 99 - 1 Nigeria match which only existed in the mind sphere of the young ones. 
Fake perceptions have a unique and irritating way of creating a fake image in our minds. A lot of us listened to funny stories that we extremely believed while growing up. After reaching certain stage in life, we needed to take such fake image away from our minds and picture the true reality. 

It is quite shocking how fake perceptions have gone a long way to ruin the lives of future leaders. There are still intelligent people that believe voting is scam because of the perceptions they have, if voting had ever been a scam then why do the politicians purchase votes with #500 😆😆😆😆. 

They have given you a fake perceptions to allow only the weak take part in decision makings then they manipulate both the weak and strong. 

It will be quite shocking to know that certain white kids were brought up with the perception of being the supreme race just like Hitler's perception about the Jews 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆. 

The younger generation today believes they need to achieve their inner yahoo spirit before they can become notable in the society, that's a fake perception that is now a cancer in our society. 

The question is what is the fake perception you grew up with and still controls your orientation about life generally. You can list them in the comment box because I am sure a lot of us had various fake perceptions about life. 

ALWAYS, LIFE IS A JOURNEY AND TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN YOUR PERSONAL JOURNEY, THERE IS A FREQUENT NEED TO LEARN, UNLEARN AND RELEARN.

Novelty

The term novelty pertains to the quest of newness, the quality or state of newness. It also refers to the quality or appeal of being new.  In our daily lives it is widely seen how people go on to fulfill the quest of novelty in purchasing material items such as the latest phones, latest designer items which include clothes, shoes, bags, watches, cars, gadgets and so on.
