Picking a subtitle in a language you don’t read or understand is about as meaningful as picking a gibberish word for that subtitle.

Use a metaphor. The early stages of a tree’s growth: “sapling”? “Society grows great when old men plant trees..”. Or “eukaryote”, in Greek, a kernel: the DNA-carrying hard-celled kernel of life-data. You might also consider “metaphase” from mitosis, if you like the biology theme but want to make it a more obvious chronological progression.

Doing psychedelic drugs?
Spending weeks in university lectures about random topics?
Listening to the days worth of classical, jazz and late 70s, 80s and early 90s music from their mum and her parents?
Reading the ramblings of long dead men and trying to understand what they meant?

I'm way too hard on myself and try to be perfect all the time.
