I was drinking a greens powder and looked up in the corner of the room and I was just like, there's no way I'm keeping this habit past 30 days. Um, so that was sort of the epiphany of, hey, how do I take uh something as robust and comprehensive and make it into a form factor that could build a habit for consumer.
How do I take uh something as robust and comprehensive and make it into a form factor that could build a habit for consumer. Make it something they look forward to. They go to bed at night thinking about, excited about taking Gruns the next day.
Sometimes motivation follows motion. Not the other way around. And so I think sometimes literally just by putting one foot in front of the other, you don't have to have 100 percent of the answer.
