Yes to some extent and would vary from person to person depending upon the determination level for the necessity to be achieved. Such moments drive people to ignite their creativity to the maximum extent until a solution is found  and this is driven by individual's determination.

Hello I am Paul.

Would like to quote small examples.

Say, I am always used to take the main road or the highway to reach any place and one day, I take a wrong turn and suddenly realise that where I've got into is the wrong path and would take me a long time to get back on track following the main road, then I decide to explore or to invent a new way from there by driving through the residential area or say some not so used path as I have to reach some place urgently.

From this Small Example would like to share that if we throw a little light on our daily routine, we will find number ofo examples which will support this saying.

Most of the inventions that changed people's lives were created based on that principle.Lets take for example the invention of electricity by Thomas Edison.The story goes as following : one day , Edison's mother was sick so he took her to a doctor to check her up.Because the light was thin in the room,the doctor did a mstake in diagnosing her disease.As a result,she eneded up dead.So Edison started working on something to improve the light in a room : The light bulb was invented and hence the electricity that powers now every house and machine on earth !

No, I don´t agree on that.

It´s like a company that is strictly committed to produce products opun market demand. Such companies are the `Followers`, 

Other companies produce products and then they creat the need for the product (e.g. antivirus programs)
