The way to “say it to yourself” is, to always know what is possible with what you have today.
But that can only happen once you have a clearly identifiable product that you are selling …. whatever it is.
That’s what Facebook has done. And Apple is not doing much more of. Who knows who Darwin will pick as the survivors of variation and adaptation ?
