Ambitious; Unbelievable; Insane; Illicit; Bad-ass. These are just some of the words I wrote down whilst reading Richard Branson's autobiography, Losing My Virginity.
This book gives a unique insight into the life and times of one Sir Richard Charles Nicholas Branson. From ambitious schoolboy, to business start-up entrepreneur, criminal, adventurer, and philanthropist. It's interesting to see that there was nothing magical about the growth of Virgin to the monstrous brand it is today — some luck, perhaps, but a lot of insight, hard work, and perseverance through minor and major setbacks alike. (You'll never believe how many times Virgin has come so close to financial ruin!)
I highly recommend this inspirational read.
