Disruption In Three Simple Steps
Think carefully before starting your business about a product that has the potential to grow into many different areas and eat away at the large incumbent businesses. Create a hyper focused niche product that can solve a problem for a lot of people, but not so many people that an incumbent organisation would be interested… Continue reading Disruption In Three Simple Steps
NHS Startup Part XII – Hustle
A lot has happened since my last update on this project. I can't believe it's been over a month since I did an update. I suppose in my mind I keep thinking "I just need to do this" and by the time I do it, there's another thing that pops up which is just as… Continue reading NHS Startup Part XII – Hustle
Resist Or Desist?
One thing I've noticed is that stuff never happens the way you thought it would. If you're taking a risk and pursuing something important to you, chances are things will go wrong in ways you couldn't have even envisioned. The thing is that if you try and live your life as safe as possible, consciously… Continue reading Resist Or Desist?
Characteristics of An Entrepreneur

Now that there is momentum… Continue reading NHS Startup Part XI – Cultivating Criticism
Yak Shaving
Yak shaving is something coders and programmers talk about a lot. The term was originally in reference to a Ren & Stimpy episode, but became widely used in MIT, took on its own meaning and then spread from there on. It refers to how we are often massively distracted by life's mundane tasks even when… Continue reading Yak Shaving
The Paradox Of Choice
Having a choice when starting a business seems to be a massive distraction and one of the major pitfalls a CEO could face. I find it really interesting that a lot of famous startup incubators tend to give founders around $20,000 to execute their idea. Some of the most successful startups in the world have… Continue reading The Paradox Of Choice
NHS Startup Part X – Vanity Metrics
We have a 100% growth rate per day at the moment. What does this mean? Nothing. Vanity metrics or getting "high on your own supply" is so easy to do. But what matters is the mission and accomplishing what you set out to do. The whole point of a startup is to test a hypothesis… Continue reading NHS Startup Part X – Vanity Metrics
