Restore

Your ability to return to a previous version of yourself — recovering lessons, habits, or strengths you once had.

Aman Narang and Toast Surviving COVID

High fit

Restore is about returning to a previous version of yourself — recovering habits, strengths, or ways of operating that once worked. Aman Narang, facing a 90% revenue drop and a company on the edge, consciously reached back to the mindset and pace of the early basement days. He didn't try to manage the crisis like the CEO of a $5 billion company — he dropped back into the scrappy, customer-obsessed urgency of a small startup. That's a deliberate restore, not a regression. He pulled out the version of himself and the team that had built something from nothing.
