It is important in life to turn adversity to 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.

The idea that business is strictly a numbers affair has always struck me as preposterous.

Entrepreneursh ip is a great leveller, since having the benefit of a wealthy background or a generous investor isn't always an advantage. The wonderful thing is that money is not the sole currency when it comes to starting a business drive, determination, passion and hard work are all free and more valuable than a pot of cash.

Wine, like life, is meant to be enjoyed.
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.

My philosophy in life is that you only live once. Live life to its fullest.
Richard Branson

I am a great believer that you need passion and energy to create a truly successful business.
Richard Branson

My interest in life comes from setting myself huge, apparently unachievable challenges and trying to rise above them.

To be a great leader, you must be a great listener
Richard Branson

Unless you dream, nothing will happen. If you dream, you might be able to make your dreams come true.
Richard Branson
Image
Leading by fear is a lot of companies' approach, and a horrible way for people to exist in their lives, when most of your life is spent at work.
Richard Branson
Image
I have always lived my life by making lists: lists of people to call, lists of ideas, lists of companies to set up, lists of people who can make things happen. Each day I work through these lists, and that sequence of calls propels me forward.
