Product Description
Product Description
The global icon shares his secrets of success and exciting plans for the future.
Throughout my life I have achieved many remarkable things. In Screw It, Let's Do It, I will share with you my ideas and the secrets of my success, but not simply because I hope they'll help you achieve your individual goals.
Today we are increasingly aware of the effects of our actions on the environment, and I strongly believe that we each have a responsibility, as individuals and organisations, to do no harm. I will draw on Gaia Capitalism to explain why we need to take stock of how we may be damaging the environment, and why it is up to big companies like Virgin to lead the way in a more holistic approach to business.
In Screw It, Let's Do It I'll be looking forwards to the future. A lot has changed since I founded Virgin in 1968, and I'll explain how I intend to take my business and my ideas to the next level and the new and exciting areas - such as launching Virgin Fuels - into which Virgin is currently moving.
But I have also brought together all the important lessons, good advice and inspirational adages that have helped me along the road to success.
Ironically, I have never been one to do things by the book, but I have been inspired and influenced by many remarkable people. I hope that you too might find a little inspiration between these pages.

Quick read, but very powerful,

This review is from: Screw It, Let's Do It: Lessons in Life (Paperback)
I loved this book. It didn't take me very long to read it (it is quite short), but I feel that I learned some valuable lessons from the man himself. I must confess to being a big fan of Richard Branson because of what he has done and how he has done it. The advice he gives in the book is both interesting and applicable to anyone who wants to better themselves. A great read.

A great book for general inspiration,

This review is from: Screw It, Let's Do It: Lessons in Life (Paperback)
It is a very simple and easy read, but who said there is anything wrong with that? I loved the book because it inspired my to do something with my own life. Since reading the book I have begun to build my own business empire. It is about as small as "student" was when it started, but hey, if Richard Branson can do it, why can't I?A definate read for any entrepreneur!

Entertaining and Informative - good read!,
By
This review is from: Screw It, Let's Do It: Lessons in Life (Paperback)
First off, overall I have to say that I really enjoyed this book. I doubt that anyone is going to accuse Richard Branson of being a literary genius, but he shoots from the hip, writes from the heart, informs, inspires and entertains! This little book gives you a quick insight into what makes Richard Branson tick, how he got to be as successful as he is today. I recently recommended this book to a client of mine (another highly successful man) for his 18 year old son to read. Both the client and son enjoyed the book as well, for much the same reasons that I did; it's kick-butt, no-nonsense, and tends to open one's eyes to greater possibilities. A small book, it's a very quick read - maybe an hour or two and definitely worth the time and money spent. Enjoy!
