Defying Gravity: The Branson Way
Picture this: A four-year-old boy abandoned miles from home, told to find his way back with only a few coins for emergency calls. This wasn't neglect-it was my mother's deliberate strategy to build self-reliance. Before turning twelve, I was cycling fifty miles cross-country with just basic directions. These weren't acts of cruelty but calculated lessons in problem-solving that would later fuel my entrepreneurial spirit. My family's DNA runs deep with adventure-my mother disguised herself as a boy to train as a glider pilot when women weren't allowed, and my uncle Clare's peculiar diet of hedgehogs and wild plants led to him teaching survival skills to elite military units. Our modest home in Shamley Green became the perfect playground for childhood adventures and early business experiments, with just one rule: be home for dinner. Isn't it fascinating how these early challenges shaped my approach to risk and opportunity?
