What's your goal with everything you're doing?
I would like to live a life with greater peace and less friction.
And I think that this is helping me achieve that.
I think that if you were to capture what exercise does for ADHD in a pill and sell it, you'd be a trillionaire overnight.
You'd beat Elon Musk to his trillion pound, billion dollar, trillion dollar fortune.
Because I think what exercise does for the brain and body is just incredible.
And specifically, there is something about running that has changed my life.
And I know that people use that a lot and it's cliched, but I remember...
Three years ago when I stopped drinking and I started walking outside every morning, that was the first thing I started doing to try and ground myself and think, I need to heal myself.
I'm going to walk for an hour every day.
I'm going to work out what the hell to do with my life.
I saw people running past and I was like,
These people run.
It just looks such hard work.
Why do they do this thing?
It's miserable.
And people go say how amazing it is, how fantastic.
God, I don't know if I like that.
And I started losing weight and I started lifting weights in the gym and feeling better, losing some weight.
And I thought, you know, I might give this running thing a go.
