'Branding is everything'
Branding is everything. A young girl once came up to me and told me I could be famous because I looked just like Richard Branson!

If you aren't willing to try everything and make a mistake, then you'll never make anything of yourself.
I just like to enjoy life and push myself. Of course, there is method to my madness. When you are entering into a new industry, for example, it helps to do something to get your name on the front pages.
