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

Richard Branson
Brave people don't live forever, but cautious people don't live at all.
Richard Branson
No matter where my travels take me, my day starts with a good work out, preferably kitesurfing or tennis. Exercise puts me in the right state of mind for the day. Dedicating time in the morning to exercise your body will make a big difference when you have to focus your mind on the day's work.
Richard Branson

To have created one of the most respected companies in the world. Not necessarily the biggest.
Richard Branson
We all are now very aware of what a connected world we live in - connected to each other and to the earth that gives us everything we have. We need all countries and companies to step up and play their part - setting strong goals, having clear plans, and openly demonstrating progress.
Richard Branson
We've all got to do everything we can to avoid conflicts.
Richard Branson
People flourish if they’re praised.
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
You don't learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over.
Richard Branson
Everything in your business can be outsourced... if you're not emotionally attached to doing it all.
Richard Branson
