It’s good to take risks.Risks equal new challenges.
і десь там, не знай його де, у тобі, мліє, кричить від гіркоти, задихається від слизу, від багняняної плотної плазми крові, мліє від жовчу брунька. брунька життя і брунька любові.

This part, I can resonate a lot with. Most of the little things I know now were learnt by taking up much more than I can offer and trying to offer it.
While this is talking about productivity, I think the basic challenge is getting people to understand that with (out) the environmental contexts & linitations as they stand…
