“There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit. And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord. And his delight shall be in the fear of the Lord. He shall not judge by what his eyes see, or decide disputes by what his ears hear, but with righteousness he shall judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the earth; and he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips he shall kill the wicked. Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist, and faithfulness the belt of his loins. The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together; and a little child shall lead them. The cow and the bear shall graze; their young shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. The nursing child shall play over the hole of the cobra, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder’s den. They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.” Isaiah 11:1-9 ESV

It's highly likely that this is a different tree species altogether.

It will be like in the picture, other species will start growing on your corpse.
Flies are usually the first ones to lay there eggs, a fresh cut is perfect for that.

Yes, if you have the right supports available. Tree stumps CAN go on to live for hundreds of years, but they don't do it alone. They only survive because they are connected to other trees through their root systems and the other trees actively send nutrients to the beleaguered stump.
Humans are not so different. The more supports you have in place the easier it is to fail and begin anew. If you have no supports though it's almost impossible.

I am in disbelief how you not only cut off the sides (easy crop job) but also somehow slightly rotated everything?! Like... What?!

Perhaps new to this forum but this often reposted image is doctored. The tree stump and sampling are not even the same species

Just because a tree grew out of a stump, it does not mean “whatever happens in life you can always start over”. Factually incorrect conjecture is not motivating.

I’m not sure that works with humans the way you are thinking. The image is closer to a baby eating a dead parent to grow.
