Founders go wrong when they start to believe their business plan will materialize as written. I advise entrepreneurs to burn their business plan - it's simply too dangerous to the health of your business.

We usually bring in people as employees, work with them to turn ideas into startups, then have the entrepreneurs go into the startup as founders.
