On the weekend I was chatting to a person about business as I do from time to time. As they told the story of their journey as an entrepreneur, I listened intently.

When they had finished, I paused. 

They had reached a certain level, but couldn't quite make it to the next stage. In this case, ambition was greater than their ability to deliver upon their goals. The business person couldn't quite figure out what was holding them back.

But I could.
