If you follow your dreams and spend your life doing what brings you joy, you are more likely to find success
Richard Branson
Image
If you don't succeed at first, there's no need for the F word (Failure). Pick yourself up and try, try again.
Richard Branson
Image
Money is a poor indicator of success.
Richard Branson
Image
I never went into business just to make money - but I found that if I have fun, the money will come. I often ask myself, is my work fun and does it make me happy? I believe that the answer to that is more important than fame or fortune. If it stops being fun, I ask why? If I can't fix it, I stop doing it.

So I've seen life as one long learning process. And if I see - you know, if I fly on somebody else's airline and find the experience is not a pleasant one, which it wasn't in - 21 years ago, then I'd think, well, you know, maybe I can create the kind of airline that I'd like to fly on.

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
Image
It is not for me (to decide). It is up to the company to decide whether the price is fair or not.
Richard Branson
Image
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.

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.

Image
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
Image
I'm not the sort of person who fears failure.

It's obviously incredibly important to keep the body fit in order to keep the mind fit, and be able to find time for friends.

We will be producing supersonic planes which will go far, far faster than Concordes. New York to Tokyo could be less than an hour. You could be traveling at 19,000 miles an hour orbitally.
