Nobody looks at a fella on a trike and thinks, there goes a car that failed inspection. Three wheels, moving, doing the entire job.
Product teams forget this. They hold the launch waiting for the fourth wheel, as if the vehicle doesn’t count until it matches the drawing. Meanwhile the trike would have told them everything. Where the road is bumpy. Whether anyone wants a ride. Whether they should have been building a boat.
And my favorite thing about wheels?… you can keep subtracting.
Two wheels is a bike, faster than the trike.
One wheel is a unicycle, absurd but moving…incredibly remarkable.
Zero wheels is you, walking, learning the route on foot. The spec was never wheels. The spec was motion.
Customers don’t buy your architecture diagram.
They buy the feeling of going somewhere.
Stay Positive & Add Wheels Only When The Road Demands Them
