Your Attitude determines your Altitude

[Music]

there are times

when one walks a chosen path and there

are times when destiny chooses

you to walk a chosen path your attitude

decides your future my life has been

full of challenges and choices

i always chose fight or flight and

results or excuses

welcome friend my name is sudhir mary

and

i am from puna i come from a typical

middle class

family and my parents had their own

dream about me

giving me higher education

[Music]

so looking for a good job in government

or either in a bank

marriage and family for me but little

did they know

that i was dreaming about being an

entrepreneur

that too in super specialty field of

manufacturing

newborn life-saving devices in india

my life has been always full of

challenges and choices

i never went for an easy thing

i started my manufacturing activity and

my distribution channel

is india in november

2017 i got a phone call from a senior

doctor friend from

america asking me whether i can

manufacture

a portable human pasteurizer

he had tried to get it developed in

california usa

but the cost of development told to him

was around 1 lakh 50 000 us dollars

that’s approximately what uh 1.20 crores

indian rupees

and the development period was two hours

two

years my doctor friend said okay thank

you very much bye bye

and he directly called me on the phone

and said siri can you develop me a

portable human male pastor

for me oh i said why not i immediately

said yes

because it was a new opportunity for me

to develop

being an entrepreneur i always liked to

develop new things so i immediately said

yes

and started researching and studying

about the

pasteurization process and the smaller

nuances of it

believe me within three months i came up

with two prototypes of human milk

pasteurizer and displayed it to the

doctors from

usa and india everybody appreciated that

but i was not satisfied with it so i

started developing a third human milk

pasteur

which was better in aesthetics

it was eco-friendly and it was user

friendly

so i developed the third prototype

in the month of may and gave it to two

hospitals in india in india

for clinical trials both this hospital

were very satisfied with the results

of the product name kemi which we named

the

kim there’s a short story behind this

this

there was a baby girl born in california

and

her mother immediately died after giving

birth to her the name of the baby was

kimi

that triggered the idea of developing a

portable human milk pasteurizer so we

named our product the human milk pasteur

as kimi

so during one such promotion out of puna

then a news came to me on a phone that

news was absolutely shocking

it was weird i was not able to believe

it the news was i was suffering

from esophagus cancer

there was a large tumor found in my food

pipe

and i was not even able to sip

water forget eating food

the same day evening there was a dinner

organized for the delegates and

everybody was enjoying the evening and i

was not even able to swallow

water whenever i used to take a sip of

water i had to run to the washroom

and vomit everybody was wondering what

was happening to me

nobody was knowing except me so when i

came to know that i’m suffering from

cancer i took the decision in my own

stride

i said okay if i have cancer i have to

face it i cannot run away from it

so i went to the doctor and said okay

you do your treatment

you start your work i do my work

so i started with a treatment known as

chemotherapy

it’s a very dangerous uh therapy

and it has multiple side effects and one

of the side effects major side effect

is the hair loss waking up in the

morning

and seeing your hair scattered over your

bed

is a very dreadful sign is a very

unhappy sign

so what to do about it i tackled that

problem in my own way

i straight away went to the barb to the

saloon and had

a haircut so i solved my problem so now

i’m not feeling bad

that i have hair loss

totally and i got

admitted to the hospital and started my

chemotherapy

during chemotherapy the cancer treatment

medicines are given or put on a saline

style and given to you intravenously

so when asked to you need the

there was a need to go for meat to a

bathroom has to carry that salience time

which was hanged with the treatment

water and i used to go to the washroom

because i didn’t want any nursing staff

for the doctors to give me back back

i didn’t want sympathy from anybody for

this

the doctors won me several times but i

took it in my stride

because i didn’t want sympathy in total

i had three chemotherapies of 72 hours

eight chemotherapy of one day

followed by 33 radiation therapies

and followed by a dilatation procedure

in which a rod is introduced in your

esophagus

to make your food pipe bigger

in between this i was able to ship one

of

my products that’s the kimi to usa

when i was getting the daycare treatment

for my cancer in the hospital i used to

go with my better off

in the hospital i have to rush to the

admission counter

get myself admitted then has to go to

the

billing counter pay the bills then i

have to go to the

ward get myself admitted and i would

request the doctor to start my therapy

everybody surrounding me were absolutely

so surprised by my attitude that’s why i

always say attitude matters

it matters during this course of

treatment

i was absolutely behaving like a normal

human being

i was doing my job on my laptop i was

watching movies i was watching

songs i was thinking about how to make

my products better i was designing

i was writing notes every i was doing

like a normal person

then after completing my chemotherapy i

went to usa

and it was like a dream come true

still today medical equipments are

imported from america

to india it was the first insulins that

a medical equipment was

exported from india to america and i was

overjoyed

we visited a lot of hospitals there in

america and

showed our innovation for this

innovation

we got a worldwide painting see

the entire world was calling me the

entire world was a market for me because

i had a word patent

but this unseen problem of cancer

you know delayed the process

after america i went to sri lanka for

promotion of kemi

and while i was in sri lanka this murmur

started

of the school pandemic

19 pandemic when i returned back from

sri lanka to

india in the month of march after few

days there was an entire nationwide

lockdown from few days after that i

started receiving

call from various business houses and

eminent government persons and eminent

personalities

to requesting me to manufacture the

adult ventilators

but how did they come to know me to come

to know about me about

my ventilation knowledge simple

from since 2004 i was manufacturing the

newborn bb care

newborn ventilators and was up and

providing it to all over india people

were knowing me that i have the

knowledge of making ventilators

and they believe that sure can solve

this problem because there was a dark

need of ventilators and there was a ban

on exports

and people were dying due to lack of

ventilator so it was mandatory that

somebody in india

should come up and manufacture a

ventilator so they chose me

to manufacture and yes i grasped this

opportunity with both hands and i

started

remember friends i have a

commerce background i am a become

mba with no technical and no clinical

knowledge

but my dream was to make an ventilator

in india

so i started studying ventilators and

ventilation

and its nuances since 1999

so that study of ventilators and

ventilation helped me

in manufacturing a state of the art

adult 20 liter

in this pandemic and now we are happy to

say that is supplied

all over india and is helping the

doctors to save

lot of patience i

even wrote a book on high frequency

oscillatory ventilator and is being used

and it has been referred in lots of

hospitals

my knowledge and for my

passion in ventilation department of

critical

care and anesthesia of km hospital puna

honored me the doctorate of their

faculty

i even got a doctorate from usa for my

knowledge

and for my work in ventilation

my work of ventilation gave me an award

for mariko innovation foundation they

had

given a challenge to manufacture

ventilators and it was an open challenge

to all manufacturers

all over the india and they chose my

product my ventilator as the best 20

litre

in the world so my friends i always say

if you have to be you have to be a

believer first then only you become

achiever

there’s nothing easy in life my friends

it’s all about hard work

toil tears and perseverance in 1999 when

there was a

strike in my company i took that

opportunity and

started studying the ventilation which

eventually helped me in this pandemic

same thing happened while developing

kimmy the person was involved with me

right from day one

in development of kimi left the project

halfway

and i had no other choice so i took the

opportunity and scrapped the entire

project i started

working from scratch and i developed a

new entirely new product

entirely new design of kemi which is not

only successful

all over the world but even it has

painted

worldwide weekend so friends

let me again tell you there’s nothing

easy in life there’s an order of

perspiration behind every successful

person

you need a single point focus

determination

perseverance and above all honesty in

every aspect of your life

if you have this you will never be

denied of success

thank you very much for your patience

listening god bless stay safe

thank you

you
