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.

More quotes by Richard Branson
I felt uneasy about making the rapid decisions I have always made, and wondered whether every decision should be formally ratified and minuted at a board meeting.
Richard Branson
I'm sure if Brawn GP keep plying me with champagne and putting gorgeous Virgin girls either side of me, you never know!
Richard Branson
Success comes from delegating, risk-taking and having a good TEAM!
Richard Branson
When you are starting a business or going down any challenging endeavor, you are bound to encounter challenges. You are going to hit many roadblocks and obstacles. These are obstacles that would make any sane person want to throw in the towel and quit. If you want your business to succeed, you can’t do that (duh).
Richard Branson
I have no secret. There are no rules to follow in business. I just work hard and, as I always have done, believe I can do it. Most of all, though, I try to have fun.
Richard Branson
There is no planet B. We have to take care of the one we have
Richard Branson
I've been lucky to have survived balloon trips, boating trips, you know, a lot of rather foolish things in my life, so I was definitely born under a lucky star.
Richard Branson
I personally don't believe anything is impossible. With enough determination and effort, almost everything is possible.
Richard Branson
There's nothing like the endorphins from being fit, and the incredible endorphin rush that goes with that. It beats drugs, drink, and almost anything else I know.
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
To be a great leader, you must be a great listener
Richard Branson
I set up this magazine called Student when I was 16, and I didn't do it to make money - I did it because I wanted to edit a magazine. There wasn't a national magazine run by students, for students. I didn't like the way I was being taught at school. I didn't like what was going on in the world, and I wanted to put it right.
Richard Branson
Coming up with the bucket list is the easy part, but ticking off the list is the challenge. I love a good challenge, which is why I strongly advise everyone to come up with a bucket list. It doesn't have to contain out of this world tasks. But once you have written down the list, screw it, just do it!
Richard Branson
Although my spelling is still sometimes poor, I have managed to overcome the worst of my difficulties through training myself to concentrate.
Richard Branson
We have the enormous opportunity in our hands to make a positive difference for business, people, and the planet.
Richard Branson
Space is hard - but worth it. We will persevere and move forward together.
Richard Branson
Every single astronaut who has come back from space comes back determined to do more to protect it.
Richard Branson
If you are a new startup company, try not to arouse the interest or suspicion of your competition especially if they are a bigger company. They can crush you while you are still in your startup phase. Lie low while still strengthening your bottom line.
Richard Branson
I have enjoyed life a lot more by saying yes than by sayings no.
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
