Agreed, but I think this infographic is more aimed at writers trying to write books / short stories / scripts-- and for them, it's pretty good advice.

Even then, a story in which everything goes wrong eventually becomes predictable and boring, The stormlight archive would be a very different and much shorter book if everything that could have gone wrong did.

Obviously outside of very specific genres not everything can be sunshine and rainbows either. As in all things in life, balance is important, I think.
