And what we did is we published the research that shows people who take the personalized guidance, their diabetes comes down by 30% in three months, blinded placebo-controlled study, fasting insulin down by 25%, depression down by 49%, Their IBS, which is 15% of the population, down by 47%, anxiety down by 42%, and we published the research. And here is the better part.
Now we have a product that can diagnose stage one cancer in your mouth and throat. And we got FDA breakthrough device designation. So the whole thing I wanted to do was... Do this thing so we can collect enough data so we can diagnose the diseases. So today, we are the only company that can diagnose stage 0 and stage 1 cancer with 95% specificity and 90% sensitivity.
So companies like Grail, they do the cancer test. Their stage 1 sensitivity is 24.1%. Ours is 90% because we use RNA and not the cell-free DNA, right? By the way, we can now do the IBD, and we are now just doing it for colon polyps, which is 10 years before you develop a colon cancer.
So imagine, instead of waiting for cancer to happen, you can diagnose polyps so you can remove them and never develop a cancer. This is what we set out to do, and now we are able to do that by building a product that consumers benefit today. The data that we collect allows us now to develop early stage diagnostics, and soon
will be able to, in fact, develop drugs with the pharmaceutical companies to reverse them, right? This is the mission, just tell you from the idea, the concept, to execution, how we did it. And I thought that's a good way of explaining how the framework works.
is for hobbies, right? So each one of us say, I'm passionate about this. Passion is for hobbies. Passion is not what moves the humanity forward. obsession, not obsession for a person, not obsession for things, obsession to solve a problem.
When you find yourself obsessed to solve a problem, that's what it takes for you to dedicate your life because nothing that you do in life that's meaningful is not going to be full of hurdles, right?
And when you are obsessed about solving it, you actually are able to find a solution because whether you have to go through the wall, you have to go around the wall, you go under the wall, you go over the wall, it doesn't matter. You're going to solve the problem when you actually care enough. To me, whether you call that you're not star, this is something you're willing to die for.
And then you live every minute of your life living for it. This is how you solve the problem. Every entrepreneur, I don't care who they are, whether it is Mark Zuckerberg or whether it's Larry Ellison, they all go through what I call near-death experiences, right? Every company that feels these near-death experiences. And what I realized is that life of an entrepreneur
is to feel that they're alive. And the only way you know you're alive is you have a heartbeat. And what does a heartbeat look like? It goes up and down and up and down. And when it's smooth, you're dead. So anytime an entrepreneur finds themselves living a smooth life, they have chosen to live a life of a dead person. Right. The ups and downs is what tells you that you're still alive.
When you are down, all you have to do is hunker down and know the next beat is going to be up. And here's the lesson of life. When you are on top of that beat, never become too arrogant because always remember the winter is coming and winter shall come.
I mean, look at Elon Musk. He went through this close to bankruptcy for Tesla and he had three rockets that exploded and he had no money left. I mean, he would have been just completely bankrupt. And here he is one of the richest men, if not the richest man in the world. So what is it near failure to actually a superb thing? Because his fundamental belief, it is worth doing.
When you put everything on the line that it is worth doing, there are people and the universe aligns itself to make it happen for you. And it's not that somehow I'm talking about some voodoo the universe does. What really happens is when you are laser focused Every single person you meet, you start to think about how can this person help me achieve my mission?
Every single conversation is about how will it help me get to my mission? And you start to be so focused that you are starting to surround yourself with people who believe in you. You start to surround yourself with people who are actually going to believe in you and they help you get to what you want to get done. And you could argue that even from non-scientific perspective.
But if you look at that, we as humans are made of atoms, right? What are atoms made of? Atoms are made of electrons and protons. What are they made of? Quarks. What are the quarks made of? Simple energy. So we are nothing but a bundle of energy.
When we focus our energy on something, we resonate at a certain frequency and the other human beings that are also resonating at a similar frequency, they amplify our frequency and then we align. And the people who are negative, they're resonating in a different frequency. Guess what? We don't get to see them. And that's the reason people find themselves in a depressed state.
They surround themselves with all the people who are depressed, right? So my point I'm going to make is that this is really the way of knowing that things are going to be tough. And this is the time if you can just hunker down and don't give up on the other side when you come out. That is the bright side of the thing. The day before the breakthrough is the crazy idea.
And the day after the breakthrough, it's an obvious idea. And that literally happens every day in our life. So I always look at every single day. What can I do to move the mission forward? I may not know how far I have to go, but I know the direction I need to go. And as in the Eastern philosophy and the Gita, as they say, my goal in life is simply about action, not the results.
Results will come from action. And in Sanskrit, it says, That means focus your life on taking action and not focus on getting the results. The results are the outcome. And Amazon has a very similar philosophy. where Jeff Bezos talks about input and not output. He said, I want to know what are you going to do? Why are you going to do it?
If you can convince me your inputs are right, I don't care about the output. Whether the output is right or wrong, it's not something you can control, but input is something you can control.
