If you seek entrepreneurial wisdom, who not better to get it from than the ultimate money magnet Sir Richard Branson. Read and enjoy Branson touching on various topics, from the book "Screw it, Let's do it".

Branson on the importance of Goal setting“I believe in goals. It's never a bad thing to have a dream, but I'm practical about it. I don’t sit daydreaming about things that are impossible. I set goals and then work out how to achieve them. Anything I want to do in life I want to do well and not half-heartedly.”“If something is what you really want to do, just do it. Whatever your goal is you will never succeed unless you let go of your fears and fly.”

Branson on taking the first step"A journey of a thousand miles starts with that first step. If you look ahead to the end, and all the weary miles between, with all the dangers you might face, you might never take that first step. And whatever it is you want to achieve in life, if you don't make the effort. You won’t reach your goal. So take the first step. There will be many challenges. You might get knocked back - but in the end, you will make it.”

Branson on Internet opportunities“The Internet has opened many new doors. A friend of mine wanted to hire a van. So he looked on the net and soon had twenty offers of a van with working driver. There are work and trading chances on the web – it has changed the lives of people with ideas and energy. Even those with little little experience can create a successful Internet mail-order business.”

Branson on the importance of growing“If you challenge yourself, you will grow. Your life will change. Your outlook will be positive. It’s not always easy to reach your goal but that’s no reason to stop. Never say die. Say yourself ‘I can do it. I’ll keep on trying until I win.’” “For me, there are two types of challenge. One is to do the bests I can at work. The other is to seek adventure. I try to do the both. I try to stretch myself to the limit. I am driven.”
