  Hospitality - Creating a Space...

  The concept of hospitality goes beyond simply entertaining guests. It is the art of making people feel valued, comfortable, and at ease in a given space. True hospitality is not about perfection or impressing others but about creating an environment where people feel welcomed and cared for. It is an intentional practice that involves thoughtfulness, warmth, and a genuine desire to serve. 
  Why hospitality matters can be seen in everyday interactions. Whether welcoming a friend into your home, greeting a stranger with kindness, or ensuring a guest feels at ease, hospitality has the power to transform relationships. It fosters connection, builds trust, and creates lasting memories. In a world where many feel disconnected, a hospitable spirit can make all the difference. It allows people to feel seen and valued, offering them a sense of belonging in an unfamiliar or even familiar space. 
  There is a difference between hosting and hospitality. Hosting often focuses on preparation, aesthetics, and the logistics of entertaining, such as planning meals or setting up a guest room. While these elements are valuable, true hospitality goes deeper. It is about the atmosphere and emotions a person experiences in a space. A well-decorated home means little if guests feel uncomfortable, unwelcome, or like an inconvenience. On the other hand, a modest setting can feel like a sanctuary when hospitality is extended with sincerity and care.

  The Self - A Very Short...

  'Know thyself' is said to have been one of the maxims carved into the Temple of Apollo at Delphi. On the face of it, this does not seem like a very difficult task. My self is with me at every moment of every day, I have access to its inner thoughts and feelings, and I am hardly liable to mistake someone else for me. At the same time, however, the self is surprisingly elusive and opaque. Our understanding of the self is replete with puzzles and paradoxes: I cannot be anyone but who I am, and yet everyone will acknowledge that there are circumstances in which being oneself is a difficult task. If I change enough, I can be said to have become a different person. I cannot get away from myself, and yet I can find and lose myself. 
   
   
   
  In this Very Short Introduction, Marya Schechtman uses insights from philosophy, psychology, psychiatry, sociology, and popular thought to consider some of the most compelling and puzzling questions about the self, including questions about what kind of object a self is if it is an object at all, what it means to be oneself and why it is important, what kinds of changes the self can and cannot survive, whether a self can be separated from its body, whether more than one self can exist in a single body, and what role engagement with the environment and with other selves plays in constituting and maintaining the self.

  The era of capitalist uncertainty is over—structured success is the future. 
  For generations, society has been trapped in the illusion that free markets create opportunity, individual ambition leads to wealth, and financial security can be achieved through hard work and risk-taking. But history has proven otherwise—capitalism breeds instability, economic collapse, and an ever-widening wealth gap. 
  This book exposes the myth of self-made success, the failures of uncontrolled markets, and the need for a structured economic system where prosperity is not a gamble but a guarantee. A.A. Castor presents a bold and direct manifesto for transitioning into a state-controlled model of wealth, where competition is eliminated, financial uncertainty is erased, and every citizen is assigned an economic role designed for national success. 
  What You'll Learn: 
  ✔ Why capitalism has failed and how its chaotic nature leads to long-term economic ruin. 
  ✔ How structured planning guarantees success by eliminating speculation and financial mismanagement. 
  ✔ The power of AI-driven economic control in creating efficient career placement and wealth distribution. 
  ✔ Why absolute obedience to structure ensures financial security for every citizen. 
  ✔ How controlled affirmations rewire the mind for discipline, loyalty, and permanent prosperity. 
  The time for free-market illusions is over. The future is planned, structured, and secured. This book is a directive—not a debate. Those who follow the new road to wealth will thrive. Those who resist will be left behind.
