Here are his top tips for budding entrepreneurs:
1. Use your sense of intuition, passion and inspiration to guide you to the business you would love to create – that is a large part of what will make you successful – your own authentic energy
2. Avoid dreambashers – people who are afraid to live their dreams and who are happiest telling you why you can’t live yours. You already have enough of them in your own head
3. Be aware of your own resistance – often what you’d most love to do is what you most avoid and procrastinate about – but through your resistance and start doing the things that are most meaningful to you
4. Find great business strategies and use them in your authentic way – find out what works for other people to attract clients and then find ways of authentically integrating those ideas into your business.
5. Learn by doing – nothing breeds confidence like success – so start in tiny ways to make your dream come true. Don’t wait until you are ready – start and you become ready
6. Know that the biggest factor in your success will be your ability to attract clients – develop at least six strategies for attracting clients

I'm very proud to announce that I am now the career/work columnist for In London magazine. My first "Ask Gaby" came out this month and I had so much fun doing it.
The best way to move forward with your Gulp! is to take small steps every day. If you do this, you'll be amazed when you look back two weeks later and see what you've been able to achieve.
