More quotes by Richard Branson
One key to entrepreneurial success is to get a great group of people around you who believe in your idea.
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
I believe a good leader brings out the best in people by listening to them, trusting in them, believing in them, respecting them and letting them have a go.
Richard Branson
The Virgin brand is not a product like Coca-Cola or Famous Grouse whisky. it's an attitude and a way of life to many. That attitude is about giving customers a better time and better value in a fun way that embraces life and seeks to give the customers something new.
Richard Branson
Perhaps my early problems with dyslexia made me more intuitive: when someone sends me a written proposal, rather than dwelling on detailed facts and figures I find that my imagination grasps and expands on what I read.
Richard Branson
We [Virgin Group] have been successful not by wasting time scrutinising our competitors but by looking at ourselves from the point of view of our customers do and seeking feedback through listening.
Richard Branson
What can you do to make a difference? And why should you do it? (...) the scale of one's social investments doesn't matter. What matters is that you operate as a force for good at every scale available to you.
Richard Branson
I've used the Phoenix Centrifuge to replicate what the body's going to go through on the flight up. I've also done some gravity tests with ZERO-G [a charter-flight service in Arlington, Va., that uses modified Boeing 727s to simulate weightlessness], which went great.
Richard Branson
India is an incredibly vibrant market, which Virgin already, through Virgin Atlantic, has the pleasure of working in. I am delighted that Virgin Comics will not only help to launch the Indian comic market and spin it into the West, but will develop new and exciting talent.
Richard Branson
I know enough to know that no man is an island.
Richard Branson
I have always believed that there is no point in having regrets as you learn far more from mistakes than successes. Embrace a mistake and learn from it don't regret them.
Richard Branson
It is only by being bold that you get anywhere. If you are a risk-taker, then the art is to protect the downside.
Richard Branson
I'm a lad of the '60s. I started a magazine to try and end the Vietnam war, but it was a number of years before I had the profile, the financial resources and the time to do more.
Richard Branson
You're offering a great service. People are tuning in. So continue to find great people, continue to do what you're doing. And do it better than your rivals. I know that's easier said than done.
Richard Branson
When people warn me against doing something once my mind is made up, I grow increasingly determined to try it.
Richard Branson
Chance favors the prepared mind. The more you practice, the luckier you become.
Richard Branson
Only a fool never changes his mind.
Richard Branson
Protect your reputation. Don't be afraid of making mistakes.
Richard Branson
I have learnt more from my failures than my successes.
Richard Branson
If you have an idea that's going to make a big difference to people's lives, and other people are not doing it, you know, just say screw it, do it and get on with it, and give it a go.
Richard Branson
