You are what you do.

If you are a builder... or a programmer... or a property agent... or a solicitor... and you decide to start your own business... then you are now a business person. If you were a solicitor, you are no longer a solicitor...

It seems that the current start-up world is obsessed with funding. Whenever people talk at accelerators or incubators and in start-up meetings is always about funding.

For anyone starting out a new business. The myth that you "Jump off the cliff and build the parachute on the way down" is something that many of you will have heard of. This is, of course, a complete lie...
