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.

The Woodstock Exchange - Worth a visit?

In the gritty streets of Woodstock, Cape Town, there stands a true spectacle of a building, The Woodstock Exchange. Once a dilapidated eyesore, it's been given new life as a mixed-use development, housing offices for the downtrodden 9-5ers, shops for the materialistic masses, and apartments for the lost souls looking for a place to crash.


It's not your ordinary building, oh no. It's a building that's been transformed, you see. It used to be an old and rundown place, but now it's been given new life. Inside, you'll find all sorts of wonders, from offices that are fit for the most brilliant of inventors, to shops and cafes that will make your mouth water.

But that's not all, my dear reader. This building has a secret, a secret that lies in its very walls. You see, it's not just a building where people work and shop, it's also a place where people live. Yes, that's right, there are apartments, lofts and even penthouses, all tucked away inside.

And the cherry on top, you ask? A rooftop terrace and a public courtyard, perfect for a spot of afternoon tea or a gathering with friends.

The Woodstock Exchange is a true marvel, a one-of-a-kind creation that's sure to delight and surprise. It's a place where the impossible becomes possible, and where the ordinary becomes extraordinary."
