More quotes by Richard Branson
Life can seem rather unreal at times. Alive and well and loving one day. No longer there the next.
Richard Branson
My definition of success? The more you are actively and practically engaged, the more successful you will feel.
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
I'm not superstitious. I don't really believe in star signs, sorry, or superstitions.
Richard Branson
Take the competition seriously, but not yourself.
Richard Branson
If family or friends are unwell or ill - it's perhaps the only thing that really can make one feel vulnerable.
Richard Branson
As people's access to the internet grows we're seeing the sharing economy boom - I think our obsession with ownership is at a tipping point and the sharing economy is part of the antidote for that.
Richard Branson
Above all, you want to create something you're proud of.
Richard Branson
You know I think if the people who work for a business are proud of the business they work for, they'll work that much harder, and therefore, I think turning your business into a real force for good is good business sense as well.
Richard Branson
Every business, like a painting, operates according to its own rules. There are many ways to run a successful company. What works once may never work again. What everyone tells you never to do may just work, once.
Richard Branson
A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts.
Richard Branson
My general attitude to life is to enjoy every minute of every day. I never do anything with a feeling of, 'Oh God, I've got to do this today.'
Richard Branson
The quality of business communications has become poorer in recent years as people avoid phone calls and face-to-face meetings, I can only assume, in some misguided quest for efficiency.
Richard Branson
We should focus on what people get done, not on how many hours or days worked. Just as we don't have a nine-to-five policy, we don't need a vacation policy.
Richard Branson
I am a great believer that you need passion and energy to create a truly successful business. Remember many new businesses do not make it and running a business will be a tough experience, involving long hours and many hard decisions - it helps to have that passion to keep you going.
Richard Branson
I think business needs to have a heart and to have a heart a company must be more than just a moneymaking machine.
Richard Branson
I truly believe that capitalism was created to help people live better lives, but sadly over the years it has lost its way a bit. The short-term focus on profit has driven most businesses to forget about the important long-term role they have in taking care of people and the planet.
Richard Branson
Set impossible challenges. Then catch up with them.
Richard Branson
We spend most of our lives working. So why do so few people have a good time doing it?
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.
