Perceptions

We don't see things, off course we perceive things, our five senses gives only the input information and our brain perceives things. And we don't perceive reality, rather the perceptions are formed basis one's assumption. A normal mountain could be very different for different individuals based on their own assumptions and those assumptions define how we see/feel/hear/smell/taste things. Assumptions are formed over a period of time and any major change in those assumptions can completely change the way we perceive the reality. How do assumptions change? see new things, think afresh, do something new everyday, read variety of things, listen to things that change the way you think. Astronomy is one subject which changes the way you look at things, there are many more Twitter news and YouTube channels which gives fresh new ideas / news on daily basis, those things questions our assumptions and changes the way we perceive things. As a leading neuro scientist Beau Lotto puts it, the next innovation is not technology, it's seeing / perceiving!
