More quotes by Richard Branson
I have learnt more from my failures than my successes.
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
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
Protect your reputation. Don't be afraid of making mistakes.
Richard Branson
I have always believed that there is no point in having regrets as you learn far more from mistakes than successes. Embrace a mistake and learn from it don't regret them.
Richard Branson
Business is the force of change. Business is essential to solving the climate crisis, because this is what business is best at: innovating, changing, addressing risks, searching for opportunities. There is no more vital task
Richard Branson
Rather than getting nostalgic...embrace the new opportunities and challenges available to you now.
Richard Branson
We've definitely cracked the technology. Now we're just trying to be able to produce the amount of fuels that we need to satisfy our own needs and then other people's needs.
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
Ridiculous yachts and private planes and big limousines won't make people enjoy life more, and it sends out terrible messages to the people who work for them. It would be so much better if that money was spent in Africa - and it's about getting a balance.
Richard Branson
Realize that the people who are working with you, this is their life. You know, 80% of their time is spent at work. Make sure that they're proud of what they're doing, that they're enjoying what they're doing.
Richard Branson
You don't learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over.
Richard Branson
I'd like to see the government back a programme of research into the medical properties of cannabis and I do not object to its responsible use as a recreational relaxant.
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
I am convinced that companies should put staff first, customers second and shareholders third - ultimately that's in the best interest of customers and shareholders.
Richard Branson
Being an entrepreneur simply means being someone who wants to make a difference to other people's lives.
Richard Branson
Listen to the customer's complaint and act fast.
Richard Branson
Entrepreneurship is about turning what excites you in life into capital, so that you can do more of it and move forward with it.
Richard Branson
Learn to live on the edge.
Richard Branson
With space travel, [it's] no different. You know, in 1990 I read the name Virgin Galactic Airways. Loved the name. And set out to try to find an engineer or rocket scientist in the world who could build a safe, reusable rocket that could take people to and from space and we could start a whole new era of commercial space travel.
