Anyone that's ran a business before or been involved in management will have come across Pareto's Principle at some point. It's the principle that says that 80% of your results come from 20% of your effort. An example would be having a look at your client list and seeing where your revenue comes from.

Start With Why – Simom Sinek
What's you why? Another great great book that I have to write about! Simon Sinek's book is so powerful, yet the concept is so simple! What's the common denominator between Tesla motors, Martin Luther King and Apple? Why is it that people queue up outside to put their deposit down for the new Tesla car, when historically… Continue reading Start With Why – Simom Sinek
NHS Startup Part VII – Don’t Make Me Think
So I met with my software developers today and I think they've pretty much nailed it. It was actually really incredible, because I hardly gave them any direction in what I wanted the app to look like. I just told them what functionality I wanted in detail and told them to be as creative as they… Continue reading NHS Startup Part VII – Don’t Make Me Think

What if?
Whenever you get scared about something and are trying to figure out whether you should take the leap or not, all you have to do is ask yourself three questions: What if I fail? What if I succeed? What if I do nothing? I don't know about you, but the most terrifying out of those… Continue reading What if?
On Leadership
I'm having an interview tomorrow to formally become a "Clinical Entrepreneur Fellow" and be part of NHS Innovation. To be honest I don't know if I'm already in as I've already been invited to the NHS Innovation Expo (for free!) this week. Nonetheless, I suppose it is a formality that I have to go through.… Continue reading On Leadership
Don’t Walk
Don't Walk........ Often we interpret things incorrectly. If you see a "don't walk" sign, how do you know that it's telling you to stand still. Maybe you should be running instead, to avoid danger? Learning to look at things in a different way is a massively useful skill. We all have problems in our life, but learning to look at… Continue reading Don’t Walk
