More quotes by Richard Branson
Fortunately we're not a public company - we're a private group of companies, and I can do what I want.
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
My biggest motivation? Just to keep challenging myself. I see life almost like one long University education that I never had - everyday I'm learning something new.
Richard Branson
We will eventually build space science labs and hotels, prodding the capability for missions beyond the orbit of the Earth. Our space-hotel guests will be able to take breath-taking excursions, flying a couple of hundred feet above the Moon's surface in small two-man spaceships. In time, we will launch missions to Mars and beyond.
Richard Branson
You need lucky breaks to be successful.
Richard Branson
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.
Richard Branson
Money is a poor indicator of success.
Richard Branson
Grow internally first. Strengthen your bottom line first before considering external growth.
Richard Branson
Many assume my business success has brought me happiness. But the way I see it, I am successful because I am happy.
Richard Branson
I think you can get happiness through making a real difference in other people's lives by setting out to make other people's lives better and setting out to right the wrongs in the world.
Richard Branson
I make up my mind about whether I can trust someone within 60 seconds of meeting them
Richard Branson
Always think, 'what's the worst that can happen' and have some kind of strategy to deal with it
Richard Branson
Good brands reflect the histories of the time and the group of people that made them. They can not be copied. They can not be recycled.
Richard Branson
And [we hope to sell] the clean fuels to other airlines. I mean, the exciting thing about the breakthrough with clean fuels for the airline industry is there's only 1,700 pumps in the world that fill up the airlines.
Richard Branson
Age isn't as important so long as you are surrounded by people you love, doing things you passionately believe in.
Richard Branson
I believe in myself. I believe in the hands that work, in the brains that think, and in the hearts that love.
Richard Branson
Companies need to have a lot more flexibility with their people... . If somebody wants to golf around the world for two months, okay, well, maybe on an unpaid basis, let them do it. That sort of flexibility I think is incredibly important because most of our time, we spend at work.
Richard Branson
I've been very lucky. I come from a very close family. I'm also in a relationship that's been really good. Lasted a long time. We've got wonderful kids from that relationship, and they've had the benefit of being together. It's fantastic to have that sort of togetherness. It's a rarity these days.
Richard Branson
It is not for me (to decide). It is up to the company to decide whether the price is fair or not.
Richard Branson
As much as you need a strong personality to build a business from scratch, you also must understand the art of delegation.
Richard Branson
