First and foremost, any business proposal I like must sound fun.

Believe in yourself and back yourself to come out on top. A fulfilling career is waiting for those brave enough to find it.

As an entrepreneur, you've got to protect against the company going bust. And as an adventurer, you've got to protect against losing your life. It's even more important as an adventurer to get it right.

There is no greater thing you can do with your life and your work than follow your passions – in a way that serves the world and you.

Your brand name is only as good as your reputation

I can honestly say that I have never gone into any business purely to make money. If that is the sole motive then I believe you are better off not doing it. A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts.

It's better to say nothing than spend 1,000 words or an hour speech saying nothing. Get to the point.
