More quotes by Richard Branson
I can honestly say that I have never gone into any business purely to make money. If that is the sole motive then I believe you are better off not doing it. A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts.
Richard Branson
If you run a business, put on top your employees, then your consumers, and then your shareholders.
Richard Branson
I just wanted to create things that I could be proud of. Money was just an evil byproduct to pay the bills at the end of the year.
Richard Branson
A generation ago, the image was that you had to trample everyone else down to succeed but I don't believe that makes good business sense.
Richard Branson
I don't live my life thinking about if only. I just try to think positively about the future. We'll never know for certain what would have happened if we'd gone to Iraq. The important thing is that we've got to do everything we can to prevent other wars.
Richard Branson
Just watching Israel bombarding Palestine and Palestine sending one or two little rockets over to Israel - it's just too sad for words.
Richard Branson
I am constantly pushing myself and my own expectations and have always found that I've always come out better for it. Fear is human nature, but turning fear into opportunity is what will make a difference. I would much rather look back at my life saying I can't believe I did that, than, What if I had done that?
Richard Branson
Over the years I have found one of my best strengths is my ability to recognise talent and trust them.
Richard Branson
The years I would have spent at University, I spent building Student Magazine and Virgin Records. For me that was far more fun and satisfying. I have treated everyday as the University education I never had and think I learnt more about business and life than I would have at University in the process.
Richard Branson
I have always lived my life by making lists: lists of people to call, lists of ideas, lists of companies to set up, lists of people who can make things happen. Each day I work through these lists, and that sequence of calls propels me forward.
Richard Branson
Only a fool never changes his mind.
Richard Branson
Life's too short. If you're passionate - stand up.
Richard Branson
People do not mind people who try things and fail. If you're a good entrepreneur, you're not going to succeed in every single thing you try. You've got to try to succeed at more things than fail.
Richard Branson
Give your employees a mission that matches their ambitions. When you challenge people, they surprise you.
Richard Branson
Breaking the rules and challenging convention is in the DNA of every successful entrepreneur.
Richard Branson
For a successful entrepreneur it can mean extreme wealth. But with extreme wealth comes extreme responsibility.
Richard Branson
Explore this next great frontier where the boundaries between work and higher purpose are merging into one, where doing good really is good for business.
Richard Branson
If a chairman of a company visits Seattle, that chairman should take all the staff out in the evening and have a few drinks together, talk together and party together and not be embarrassed about the staff seeing the weaker side of you.
Richard Branson
I believe in benevolent dictatorship provided I am the dictator.
Richard Branson
Any successful entrepreneur knows that time is more valuable than money itself.
Richard Branson
