I’ve wanted to launch a cruise line since I was in my 20s and I’m so excited that it’s finally happening with Virgin Voyages . When I woke up in one of the Rockstar Suites this morning, I really had to pinch myself. https://virg.in/59w

This is the incredible moment Virgin Orbit flew into orbit. What a beautiful sight to behold: the Virgin LauncherOne rocket taking off from the wing of our 747 airplane and soaring into orbit at 17,500mph to drop off satellites https://virg.in/j89

After an inspiring inauguration showcasing the power of unity, including Amanda Gorman’s breathtaking poem, how wonderful to see the new Administration immediately putting their words into action, rejoining the Paris climate accord and tackling COVID-19.

In our modern, fast moving, digital world, too many of us either took truly human connections for granted or falsely believed we could stay connected with devices. The silver lining in all this is the reminder of the value of a phone call, a human voice, being physically near someone, a friendly handshake and a warm embrace. Let us keep this part of this experience alive forever. #togetherisbetter #happymothersday …see more

Listening, learning and taking action: it should not have taken George Floyd’s death for white people to wake up to the reality of racism around us. It has been centuries in the making. I have always believed that businesses and leaders must be advocates for the common good and this is truer now than ever. Virgin Management has signed Business in the Community’s Race at Work Charter and committed to 5 important and long-term actions. Here are more of my thoughts on Black Lives Matter and the steps needed to create real change https://virg.in/psX #BlackLivesMatter …see more

It can be easy to only do things inside your comfort zone. But the magic doesn’t happen here. Nothing good in my life has ever happened from the safety of my comfort zone https://virg.in/53e

“Why do we kill people who kill people to show that killing people is wrong?” https://lnkd.in/dU7Ykeh #abolishthedeathpenalty

100k cycle and swim: completed! I’ve been looking forward to the 100km cycle because I knew it would be the most challenging stage of the Strive Challenge for me. That’s what the Strive Challenge is all about: having a growth mindset (and raising money for Big Change !) It can be really easy to stay in your comfort zone but that’s not where the magic happens. When you reach your limits and you push past them, there really is no other feeling like it. …see more

Authorities act with themselves in mind. Leaders act with others in mind. Authorities take. Leaders give. Authorities die. Leaders live on.

"Work hard, play hard" sounds terribly unhealthy. I think we would all be a lot healthier, happier, and find greater balance in our lives if we learn to work smart and play always.

Those who choose to adopt an infinite mindset are better equipped to manage the unknown. In fact, they are able to find opportunity in uncertainty. That’s one of the things discussed on this week’s episode of #ABitofOptimism with Jenna Arnold. Listen at apple.co/simonsinek …see more

"Dreams always come from behind you, not right between your eyes. It sneaks up on you. But when you have a dream, it doesn't often come at you screaming in your face, "This is who you are, this is what you must be for the rest of your life." Sometimes a dream almost whispers. And I've always said to my kids, the hardest thing to listen to—your instincts, your human personal intuition—always whispers; it never shouts. Very hard to hear. So you have to every day of your lives be ready to hear what whispers in your ear; it very rarely shouts. And if you can listen to the whisper, and if it tickles your heart, and it's something you think you want to do for the rest of your life, then that is going to be what you do for the rest of your life, and we will benefit from everything you do." - Steven Spielberg #passion #listentothewhispers #findyourwhy #startwithwhy #liveyourwhy …see more
