Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible says that a merry heart doeth good like a medicine. Do you know that it takes more effort and facial muscles to frown than to laugh? Laughing or even a chuckle brings comfort to us, along with a healing effect. I had the privilege of working on the Presley's Jubilee in Branson, Missouri one year. The show consisted of great music and plenty of comedy. The jokes were clean and very funny. People love to laugh at a good joke and especially without profanity. While compiling this book, I attempted to do just that. I hope you enjoy the book, but be careful that you don't split a side or slap a knee too hard!

Download or read book Screw Business As Usual written by Richard Branson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the trailblazing founder and CEO of the Virgin Group, a powerful argument for using business to make a positive impact in the world. Richard Branson, one of the world’s most famous and admired business leaders, argues that it’s time to turn capitalism upside down—to shift our values from an exclusive focus on profit to also caring for people, communities and the planet. As he writes, “My message is a simple one: business as usual isn’t working. In fact, it’s ‘business as usual’ that’s wrecking our planet. Resources are being used up; the air, the sea, the land—are all heavily polluted. The poor are getting poorer. Many are dying of starvation or because they can’t afford a dollar a day for life-saving medicine. . . . Prophesying doom and gloom is simply not my style. . . . I think business can help fix things and create a more prosperous world for everyone. I happen to believe in business because I believe that business can be a force for good. By that I mean doing good is good for business.” Screw Business as Usual shows how easy it is for both businesses and individuals to embark on a whole new way of doing things, solving major problems and turning our work into something we both love and are proud of.
