Dear Prime Minister Ambani,
Please accept my humble apologies for not realizing that you are the real boss of India.
Naturally, you would prefer to maintain your monopolistic exploitation of the great people of India, but would you nonetheless consider allowing Starlink to compete?
There are many areas of India, as there are in all countries, with no Internet access, which denies children the opportunity for education and for small businesses the opportunity to sell their goods to a global market. Starlink would change their lives for the better.
Thank you 🙏
My dear young person,
Don’t succumb to mediocrity. There’s enough of it going around. Aspire for craftsmanship, as that is what leads to joy and beauty.
The world needs more people who’re proud of what they make, and less of those who couldn’t care less.
@porterit_ damaged my TV during transit from Gurgaon → Bangalore due to negligent and improper packaging by your own staff.
Facts:
• I explicitly warned the packers about inadequate packaging
• Your team assured me the TV would not be damaged
• TV arrived damaged
If this is not resolved immediately, I will:
1️⃣ File a formal complaint with the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission
2️⃣ Escalate to National Consumer Helpline
3️⃣ Pursue compensation for loss, mental harassment, and litigation costs
@porterit_ damaged my TV during transit from Gurgaon → Bangalore.
Issues:
1️⃣ TV was damaged due to improper packaging by Porter’s packers
2️⃣ I explicitly raised concern at the time of packing — your team assured it was safe
1/3
3️⃣ Now you’re refusing responsibility, citing a “7-day complaint window” that was never disclosed at booking
Hidden terms after damage ≠ customer protection.
I expect Porter to own the mistake and resolve this fairly.
Transparency and accountability matter.
@porterit_ please take responsibility for the damage that you did as I used your package and mover service first time in life.
Now you say I should have reported earlier (within 7 days) although it was not mentioned in T&C while booking.
@IndiGo6E My flight on 5 Dec (4:40 AM) has been rescheduled to 7 Dec, leaving me with no way to reach on 5 Dec, even with Plan B. I have an emergency and this change puts me in a very difficult situation.
Please help me get on a 5 Dec flight at the earliest.
Flight #: 6E819
Great outcomes usually require trade-offs and sacrifices, but you don't have to neglect your physical and mental health;
too many people are somehow proud of not having enough time to sleep, exercise, enjoy their meals, watch their kids grow, share meaningful conversations with their family and friends;
many unhappy people love to say the contrary, but it's entirely possible to reach your goals and enjoy the journey too, you just need to understand your strengths better than anyone else;
don't wait until you are old to realize that you spent your whole life walking on a path that someone else wanted you to walk.
Every agritech entrepreneur in their entrepreneurial journey climbs many mountains. Three of which are very important.
The First one could be called "What is Right".
Passion drives the journey that unfolds in this mountain. Most agritech entrepreneurs at their early stages, start at this mountain. Most business models are filled with idealism in this mountain.
When entrepreneurs discover the limitedness of climbing "What is Right" without a clear pathway to profitability, they start climbing the mountain called "What Market Wants".
This is the rite of passage for many entrepreneurs who discover the grit needed to play the entrepreneurial game. This is where teens become adults.
There is a challenge though.
Most entrepreneurs get stuck in this mountain for decades and continue to play entrepreneurial games only inside this mountain. They get so conditioned by what happens in this mountain that they think the entire universe lives in this mountain.
Very few, minority of minority seek out the third mountain: "What is Right and What Market Wants".
This is the mountain where purpose and meaning meets success as defined by the world outside. It takes a search of a different kind to discover the third mountain in the first place and set out for a pilgrimage to climb the third mountain.
It is a pilgrimage, for the third is the most sacred of all the mountains.
Which mountain are you climbing?
