Scrambled cities: If you're not gonna do the work(on your soul), then you might as well work til you die

 There are two tiers in normal life. Those who are survive and those who thrive.  But nothing is a mistake in life: Nothing comes by chance. You have to prepare for it.  If you thought life was about making money and beating out the Jones's, you've lost already.  Life is: Desire for connection. All unhealthy competition is isolating. We live in an isolated-enough world already. This connection comes from a surprising place: Self-acceptance. A lot of us need to go back to the classroom. A lot of us need to take a silent breather and check in with what we need. This takes serious work. It's the real work. It relies on respect for others and self-respect.  A lot of people in the self-help community try to push the self aside: Manning up is the only side of it they see.

When to keep and when to cut loose

When people ignore you or treat you like an expendable thing, cut them out.
Excise them like a tumour. You do not need them, and they are yet to realise
That they need you. But when that time comes, it'll be much too late.

When people call you for things that they need, but forget that you also have
a life of your own, don't let them do it. It'll only cheapen your one-time existence.
You have very little time on earth, and somewhere, someone appreciates it.

They sap your energy without you even realizing it. And in this country,
There are plenty of sappers who don't give anything in return. Don't let them
Steal your soul. Rather harden yourself like a pack of nails. Harden and desensitise.

Don't let them feed off you like bacteria. Become the surgical surface you admire
In laboratories and space stations where nothing can grow that does not belong.
