believed coke excited home pepsi taking truly until
I am so excited by the thought of Virgin Cola taking on Coke and Pepsi in their home territory, ... I have always believed that you can never truly be an international cola until you have launched in the home of the colas -- America.
betrayal believe spirit
I believe that drudgery and clock-watching are a terrible betrayal of that universal, inborn entrepreneurial spirit.
determination believe effort
I personally don't believe anything is impossible. With enough determination and effort, almost everything is possible.
believe opportunity people
You must have the courage to trust your instincts and be ready to question what other people don't. If you do that, you can seize opportunities that others would miss. Believe in yourself, and use everything you can - including the obstacles - to propel you along the road to success. Who knows what you might achieve?
inspirational crazy believe
I believe in benevolent dictatorship provided I am the dictator.
fun business believe
I have no secret. There are no rules to follow in business. I just work hard and, as I always have done, believe I can do it. Most of all, though, I try to have fun.
believe people trying
If you love what you do and if you believe in what you do, others will share your enthusiasm. Passionate people find their way to the Virgin Group, and when they do, we snap them up and try to keep them within the family.
strong regret believe
Universities are fantastic places to gain knowledge on a subject, develop a personal network, explore your character and learn new techniques to approach problems. I do however believe that there is a strong argument for students who have an idea they are passionate about to just try and turn it into a reality. I fell into this category and I don't regret not going to University.
believe years phones
We believe that within five years, 96 percent of British consumers will have access to the Internet, whether it be through a personal computer, a set-top box or a mobile phone.
fun believe exercise
I can honestly say that I have never gone into any business purely to make money. If that is the sole motive then I believe you are better off not doing it. A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts.
believe long people
Age isn't as important so long as you are surrounded by people you love, doing things you passionately believe in.
believe differences purpose
I've had to create companies that I believe in 100%. These are companies I feel will make a genuine difference. Then I have to be willing to find the time myself to talk about them, promote them and market them. I don't want to spend my life doing something that I'm not proud of.
success fun believe
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.
stars sorry believe
I'm not superstitious. I don't really believe in star signs, sorry, or superstitions.
