Just thinking about all those great scientists and doctors from the past is so inspiring! Just in the last 100 years we've created the vaccine for polio, sent humans to the moon, the range of medications we have has vastly increased and then there's IT - the Internet is, in my opinion the next industrial… Continue reading Innovation Is Dead

Glamorising Failure
I've written quite a lot about failure on this blog. For example Here and Here. I just want to get one thing straight here. Failing is for losers. We shouldn't be glamorising failure as if it's somehow a good thing. It still sucks to fail and if you fail too many times, you are a loser.… Continue reading Glamorising Failure
Speed & Momentum
Speed and momentum are key. If you stand still the wind will break you down.
There’s A Revolution
There's a revolution happening..... Right now, you have the same access to connections as the biggest and best corporations in the world. You can literally find anyone through the internet and if you can bring value to them, you can build real connections. Right now, you have access to your own media company.

Pareto’s Principle
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. Most… Continue reading Pareto’s Principle
It’s Messy
University was this: Patient comes in, you listen to them, you do some tests, you give them treatments and then you've fixed them. Real life is this: Patient comes in, they talk about things in a way that you can't understand (e.g. "it burns behind my knees all the time, except when I'm doing something),… Continue reading It’s Messy
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?
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
Who Is Your Critic?
When you're creating something, the haters always seem to emerge. That can't be done. Who do you think you are? That's not your job. You're not qualified. The only criticism you should ever take to heart are from people in the arena. Who have put themselves out there and are creating, just like you. Sure,… Continue reading Who Is Your Critic?
Focus On the Negative
Why is it that when the phone rings we assume the worst? Ring ring. "Hello, Rakeeb, I need to talk to you about a patient you saw yesterday. Please can you see me after your clinic is over?" The narrative in my mind started immediately. "I must have done something wrong...I hope they didn't end… Continue reading Focus On the Negative
