The billionaire daredevil..........." Richard Branson "

   
            " Common folks always keeps from battling against destiny but Exceptionals revolt against destiny , when not in their favour . "
 
                           This is the key difference between an ordinary person and the chosen one . Destiny lets those in its plans whom it treats parallel . But to acquire such a position , one must give primary importance to oneself . It is in our hands to either look upon somebody or make the mob look upon us .

                  Though it be the airline sector or be the telecom sector , the Virgin  Group has a grip over the market and the key person behind forming and taking this entity to the zenith is the chairperson of the Virgin Group , " Mr. Richard Branson " . This man surely knows on which side his bread is buttered .Sir Richard Charles Nicholas Branson (born 18 July ,1950) is an English business magnate and investor.

According to the Forbes 2012 list of billionaires, Branson is the sixth richest citizen of the United Kingdom, with an estimated net worth of US$4.6 billion.

Branson was born in Blackheath, London. His father was Barrister Edward James Branson (10 March 1918 – 19 March 2011)

Branson had dyslexia and had poor academic performance as a student, but later discovered his ability to connect with others.
On one of Branson’s last days at school, his headmaster, Robert Drayson, told him he would either end up in prison or become a millionaire.
At a tender age of 15 ,he convinced his father of allowing him to breed Budgerigar and who also arranged for the accesories required  for the work.
After sometimes he started his record business from the crypt of a church where he ran  "The Student Magazine". He started to get good returns.  Branson eventually started a record shop in Oxford Street in London .Earning enough money from his record store, Branson in 1972 launched the record label Virgin Records with Nik Powell and bought a country estate, in which he installed a recording studio.He then got associated with Banking ,Beverages, Travel , Videogames ,Consumer Electronics, FinancialServices, Films, Internet, Music ,Radio!,Books, Cosmetics, Jewellery, Houseware, Retail ,Mobile Phones,  Commercial Spaceflight.
It seems as if failures and misfortunes ran away from Branson.


He has even shrugged of the inner voice which  was creating confusion when he attempted to create world records. Amongst those attempts the few notables are. his attempt to cross Atlantic Ocean in the least time possible.
In January 1991, Branson crossed the Pacific from Japan to Arctic Canada, 6,700 miles (10,800 km), in a balloon of 2,600,000 cubic feet (74,000 m3). .In March 2004, Branson set a record by travelling from Dover to Calais in a Gibbs Aquada in 1 hour, 40 minutes and 6 seconds, the fastest crossing of the English Channel in an amphibious vehicle. And this passion for adventure is still in Branson's heart.
His ex wife's name is  Kirsten Tomassi  and his current's is Joan eTempleman




He has also tried his best to eradicate miseries from the world. For his selfless services to the society ,he has been honoured and awarded .


At school he was an academic failure, and left without any qualifications. Starting his own record shop with a small loan, Richard Branson became one of the most colourful and successful businessmen in the UK. So how will you get inspired from him?
                                      Well ,let me tell you how I get motivated from Richard Branson's life .For me he is a person ,who had little knowledge but abound in wisdom .He inspires us to go beyond conventional thinking and to achieve whatever we desire.


" For a successful entrepreneur it can mean extreme wealth. But with extreme wealth comes extreme responsibility. And the responsibility for me is to invest in creating new businesses, create jobs, employ people, and to put money aside to tackle issues where we can make a difference ." ............ Richard
Branson
