You're welcome. I second Majenrobe's comment, too: I enjoyed reading about how another communist solves everyday problems. I can see the dialectic working through the piece, too, even if you're self-consciously light-touch. I'm a fan of the self help genre but a lot of it is just apologism for capitalism. There's a space in the market for communist self help!
I'm going to look at that book on five-day projects.
You mention that China in the section on constant improvement. I'm not 100% sure but if you're interested, you might find the Chinese phrase for it in the literature on the pursuit of 'Common Prosperity'. E.g. this whitepaper talks about 'time-phased' projects and 'perseverance over generations', which is close to what you're talking about.
Sometimes I write words on the screen and it's only afterwards that they make sense to me lol, thanks 😁
