维珍老板称做生意就像画画

"There is no point in going into a business unless you can make a radical difference in other people's lives. To me, it's like painting a picture: You have to get all the little nuances right to create the perfect picture, or the perfect company."

“要想做好生意，就要能想办法对别人的生活进行彻底的改变。对我而言，做生意就像画画，在创造出完美的作品之前，你必须打点好一切琐事。做生意开公司也是一样。”

Artists have a way with the canvas: They find the inspiration, envision the picture before they put the brush to the canvas, prepare the tools, and finally get to work.

艺术家自有自己的一套方法：他们先寻找灵感，在动笔之前先构思出整幅画作，再准备绘图工具，最后才开始作画。

They take their time with each brush stroke, ensuring that the end result is as close to perfection as possible. According to Branson, entrepreneurs should approach business with the same delicacy.

画家们每画一笔都要力争完美。维珍老板布兰森表示，企业家也要用类似于作画的精益求精的态度来做生意。

"So I'll throw all the paint up and get all the best people in. By the time it sticks on the canvas, we'll try to start getting some order into it. Every little single detail has to be right."

“所以我会招贤纳才，同时专注于作画。把每件事都处理得井井有条，每一个小细节都精益求精。”
