In the beginning it was just about the business - now it's about the brand.
Richard Branson
I find it very difficult to think of mistakes not that I don't make any but because I was brought up to look only at the good things in life ... As for what lost the most money, probably Virgin Cola. It is still No 1 in Bangladesh though.
Richard Branson
Have fun, work hard and money will come. Don't waste time - grab your chances. Have a positive outlook on life. When it's not fun, move on.
Richard Branson
Too many companies want their brands to reflect some idealised, perfected image of themselves. As a consequence, their brands acquire no texture, no character and no public trust.
Richard Branson
Life can seem rather unreal at times. Alive and well and loving one day. No longer there the next.
Richard Branson
The amount of time people waste dwelling on failures rather than putting that energy into another project, always amazes me
Richard Branson
The jet stream is a very strong force and pushing a balloon into it is like pushing up against a brick wall, but once we got into it, we found that, remarkably, the balloon went whatever speed the wind went.
