Look for the Loose Brick
I hear salespeople say that speaking to a particular prospect was like "hitting a brick wall." The prospect's guard was up in full force.

The ladder represents the work that needs to be done to get to the top; the wall represents the field of endeavor – the product or market selected to work in.

Successful Failures
In a small pub in the highlands of Scotland, a group of fishermen gathered one afternoon to swap tales over a round of ale. One of them stretched his arms apart to show the big one that got away. At that very point, a waitress walked past carrying a tray of full ale glasses. The fisherman's wild gestures sent the tray smashing against the wall.
