Why we should stop blind fanboyism

A lot of people are buying smartphones out of blind fanboyism. People often buy smartphones without looking at what kind of specifications these devices have. For example what kind of SoCs (System on a Chip) these phones use. So they buy a device with a bad processor and after one or 2 months these devices started hanging and they blame Android.

 I had a friend who was a blind Nokia fan. He purchased Nokia N8 at the heights of Android popularity in 2012 and later found out painfully that Symbian OS is dying. Another friend of mine bought a Windows phone just so that he could own a Nokia device. When we using popular apps like Firefox or Chrome he was left out. When we were playing multiplayer games like Clash of Clans and Mini militia he was again left out.

 Then after Collapse of Nokia and HMD Global buying Nokia and deciding to release Android phones the guy decided to buy Android phones made buy Nokia. So he went for Nokia 5 with a Snapdragon 430 processor. It was overpriced at 15,000 INR and only had 2GB rams. Where superior phones like Moto G5s plus was available at 16,000 INR with superior Snapdragon 625 Chipset. Stop blindly following brands without looking at specifications, friends. You will regret these decisions later.

It tries to communicate valuable messages to the readers metaphorically by using characters.  Through the story of the shepherd who went all the way back to the Egyptian pyramids to find his treasure the book inspires us to follow our heart and realise our dreams. Santiago is an Andalusian shepherd boy. His parents wanted him to be a priest. But he decides to follow his heart and become a shepherd instead as he loves travelling. He had a recurrent dream of a treasure which he could fi
