Restart is about pausing and beginning again with intention rather than just reacting. When Krishna Kalyanen's packaging partner walked away, he faced a genuine dead end. Rather than scrambling to find another vendor — the reactive move — he stopped, assessed the situation, and made a deliberate choice to build the capability himself. Moving to Indianapolis, setting up the facility, and sleeping on a cot in the office was not a frantic pivot. It was a calculated reset.
