Brian O'Driscoll Quotes

I learned from my parents that you have to get pleasure out of what you're doing, or don't do it.

You have to be very committed and find happiness in the work that you do.

I work for enjoyment and satisfaction - not just to earn a living.

If you enjoy what you do, if you are interested in what you do, I really think that's the best situation.

The best part of getting to do what you like is just doing it. That doesn't have to do with being famous or even successful or even powerful. I see people in life who are just doing a job and seem to be having a good time. And that's the trick.

I am going to continue to work hard, but I do not take it too seriously, I just do what feels right and I really want to have a good time.

Working at what you enjoy is far more important than what you're working at.

You have to work hard, and you have to enjoy what you're doing. If you don't enjoy it, no matter how hard you seem to work, you're not going to be working as hard as you can because you're not enjoying it.

The worst days of those who enjoy what they do are better than the best days of those who don't.

I enjoy what I do. I think it shows.

I only am in this business because I enjoy it. I think that is the only way to be in the business.

I certainly can't complain. I work six days a week, if not seven, and eighteen hours out of twenty-four - fortunately, with a great deal of pleasure. Why? Because I only do something if I want to do it; I need to feel a desire, to find pleasure in moving forward, creating, moving, inventing.

I love what I do, so I don't mind working.

Why would I retire from something I enjoy doing? I can hardly wait to get here.

Like what you do, and then you will do your best.

Working every day isn't hard if you love what you're doing.

I don't think I've worked a day in my life.

I just always enjoy it; if you really enjoy what you do, you don't want to stop.

I'm a work horse. I like to work. I always did. I think that there is such a thing as energy, creation overflowing. And I always felt that I have this great energy and it was bound to sort of burst at the seams, so that my work automatically took its place with a mind like mine. I've never had a day when I didn't want to work. I've never had a day like that. And I knew that a day I took away from the work did not make me too happy. I just feel that I'm in tune with the right vibrations in the universe when I'm in the process of working. ... In my studio I'm as happy as a cow in her stall.

Do what you love and you'll always love what you do. I've found that that's true most of the time.

I love to work. Doing things we love is how we relax, I think.

Because I don't see Virgin as a company but as a way of life and I fully enjoy it, I don't think I'll ever retire.

I'm not the "not-working" type. I derive pleasure from my work. Work gives me relaxation too. Every moment I am thinking of something new: making a new plan, new ways to work. In the same way that a scientist draws pleasure from long hours in the laboratory, I draw pleasure in governance, in doing new things and bringing people together. That pleasure is sufficient for me.

I enjoy what I do and it's a great way to live your life.

The only advice my Dad's given me is: If you ain't having fun, it ain' working, so always have fun with what you're doing. If you don't love it then there's no reason to do it. And don't do it for fame or money- do it because it's something that you feel is right.
