Sometimes the best thing that could possibly happen is something not working. How many times did Twitter bump up against its inability to scale on the way to being successful? (Yes, maybe a bad example.) What if someone had said, “Oh it’s never going to scale, we shouldn’t do this“? History has shown that if there is a need or a desire, people will find a way to satisfy it. There are good problems to have and bad problems to have – make sure you are not on the side of trying to avoid having good problems.
