Maybe, you’re building a D2C brand or growing it as part of its team.
Maybe, you have someone guiding the way. When that happens, mistakes aren’t as costly and success isn’t as far.

📘 What does it take to win beyond boundaries?
Sometimes, it means rewriting the rules entirely.
Harsh Mariwala didn’t take on the giants head-on.
He built Marico by owning the categories they ignored—and scaled them into leadership positions.
This mindset powers Narrowcast: Winning Beyond Boundaries—the 4th edition of Blume’s annual book, featuring hard-won insights from S3 of the Blume Podcast by Karthik Reddy (@BKartRed).
Featuring:
🔥 Harsh Mariwala @hcmariwala on counter-intuitive market entry
💡Girish Mathrubootham @mrgirish on product-led GTM

More than a book—it’s a companion for every founder chasing bold outcomes.

Some things when explained simply seem profound because we have seen things from that perspective. The human mind invariably tries to complicate ideas. Those who know their stuff can always explain things in the simplest manner possible.
Students at NYU asked the creators of South Park the million-dollar question:
“What makes a good story?”
They gave one of the best explanations of story I’ve heard:
“If we can take the beats of your outline, and the words ‘and then’ belong between those beats… you got something pretty boring.
What should happen between every beat you’ve written down is the words ‘therefore’ or ‘but.’”
They go on to say, “That gives you the causation between each beat, and that makes a story.”
Point 1:
There’s an idea in storytelling called ‘Promise, Progress, Payoff.’
Essentially, a story is a neverending cycle of promises that are paid off over the span of the story.
It’s a cycle of expectation and resolution. Cause and effect. Conflict and progress.
Point 2:
A story isn’t a bunch of random events thrown together.
A story is a series of but / because / therefore moments.
A famous example:
• Harry discovers he's a wizard. Because of this, he goes to learn magic at Hogwarts.
• But then he learns Voldemort wants to kill him and rule the world.
• Therefore, he must find a way to defeat him.
Point 3:
‘And’ implies a simple continuation.
‘But / Therefore’ give prior events meaning through causation.
‘But’ implies conflict. ‘Therefore’ implies progress.
I’m reminded of a Hemingway quote:
“Prose is architecture, not interior decoration.”
Great writing is intentional. It doesn’t wander. It builds upon itself.

North #Atlantic#Ocean records its highest ever #sea surface #temperature. This unprecedented event can lead to #heatwaves, #fires, #storms and #flooding in large parts of the planet. Not a good news and a news which must get some attention !!

In 2019 a green sea #turtle came from the sea and laid eggs on the middle of the aircraft runway of Maafaru airport in Noonu Atoll of Maldives. Little she knew that it is no more her home now. The old nesting site for these turtles was turned into an airport. Turtles have habbit of returning back to the same location. No more same for them. Remember, when habitat goes they too will go. Today is #WorldTurtleDay

"Where do we watch Succession now?"
First the IPL and now HBO, it's clear that Disney is going to going to lose Hotstar subscribers in India.
This is intentional.
It's a story about activist investors, a new-old CEO, how Hotstar is essentially cable TV and a myth of bundling.
