► It's easy to teach an old dog new tricks when the dog wants to learn them -- so if you are looking to pick up a new skill or get rid of bad habits, make sure you have the honest desire to do so. If you don't feel that strongly about change, then you are just wasting your time trying to attain it. Are you letting other people's expectations drive your goals? You have to make sure your ambitions are you own, otherwise they are never going to inspire you. It's one of those days when you've got to lie low. Try to take the day off, if possible -- though you may find that harder than usual, as your conscience pesters you to take care of business.

Politics is in fact a stage where politicians play a role contrary to their original character. However, unlike the theater featuring the actors ---the player character in a drama based on a fictional story --- political stage trying to play the character in a narrative essay to manipulate, deceive, and deceive the public. They played the character to cover the doings of sloppy, actions are far from ethical values ​​and decency, as well as the disgraceful behavior that is totally contrary to the principles of civility in politics. Politics - which is actually a very noble and a straight path for those who are committed to fight for the aspirations and interests of the people through the public policy process --- has been distorted to be a crooked path to greedy people and don't have dedication. Their orientation only to accumulate wealth by abusing power for personal purposes. Inevitably, politics turned into a very harsh on the hands of the immoral and unethical, those whose minds and hearts just filled with power ambitions to satisfy the hedonic desires and material lust  which become the symbol of worldly luxuries.

So, in order to meet the political lust with material dimension, politicians do not hesitate to do a gigantic scale corruption. On behalf of the rights of authority budgets, they use state money through various modus operandi such as to ask commission money to smooth proposed development projects financed by the state budget, to charge to approve a clause in the legislation, citing kickbacks in return for approval of any manufacturing public policy, and various other similar modes.

Political corruption involving politicians as public officials commonly called Political Extorsion in the process of public policy-making. So, politicians who are involved corruption case actually a set of high-level exploiters (read: Criminal Elite) because of their political positions.

Such political corruption has become a common phenomenon among politicians and hit almost all the political parties, both parties based on religion or secular parties. It's interesting, politicians often apply with echoes of heroic anti-corruption slogans to lure the public and for imaging. They never stop echoing the political rhetoric that corruption is against the law and contrary to the principles of religious morality and public morality. But behind the political rhetoric of anti-corruption, politicians just often times involved in a corruption scandal to perpetuate their power. They have demonstrated a very real political hypocrisy. This is reflected in the words and deeds which are not in line. So, it's not surprising if the public considers that actually the politicians are the bunch of hypocrites.
