Michelle Mone Quotations

I think when I first started out I got a bit carried away with myself,

I love the water; it inspires me, even if it is dirty London water that I look at.

The thing is with the media, I have a love-hate relationship with [it]. [Journalists] are only doing their jobs and you can't get your own way all the time.

Every day is a school day. I learn something new every day, and I never know what's going to happen next.

I thought not being part of the [Britain] union was a bad idea. We are better together. It was dangerous for business as there were no [concrete] plans around the currency or the economy.

I have always shouted from the rooftops about my businesses but I had never ever spoken about my personal life.

I am not a professional coach but I believe being healthy inside and out and cleansing your demons ... helps you perform better in business and become a more positive person.

Yes, some people will say you get successful obese businesspeople. But are they happy? Probably not.

What happened in my personal life affected my career too. I am not perfect and I have made a lot of mistakes. Being an entrepreneur is incredibly lonely. There were many hurdles along the way. From starting out, to making it, and almost losing it, to fighting back, to nearly losing it all again. There have been extreme highs and extreme lows.

It's like a footballer from a working class background; they're given all this money and fast cars and it goes to their heads a wee bit and I think it went to my head a wee bit.
