“How do you become more productive?”

Richard Branson leaned back and thought for a second. The tropical sounds of his private oasis, Necker Island, murmured in the background. Twenty people sat around him at rapt attention, wondering what a billionaire’s answer would be to one of the big questions—perhaps the biggest question—of business. The group had been assembled by marketing impresario Joe Polish to brainstorm growth options for Richard’s philanthropic Virgin Unite. It was one of his many new ambitious projects. Virgin Group already had more than 300 companies, more than 50,000 employees, and $25 billion per year in revenue. In other words, Branson had personally built an empire larger than the GDP of some developing countries. Then he broke the silence:

Pity is one of the noblest emotions available to human beings; self-pity is possibly the most ignoble.

Pity is the capacity to enter into the pain of another in order to do something about it; self-pity is an incapacity, a crippling emotional disease that severely distorts our perception of reality.

Pity discovers the need in others for love and healing and then fashions speech and action that brings strength; self-pity reduces the universe to a personal wound that is displayed as proof of significance.

Pity is adrenaline for acts of mercy; self-pity is a narcotic that leaves its addicts wasted and derelict
