He¡¯d say, ¡°If you pour water on flowers, they flourish. If you don¡¯t give them water, they die.¡± I¡¡ 4¡¡ as a child I said something ¡¡5¡¡ ¡¡about somebody, and my father said, ¡°¡¡ 6¡¡ time you say something unpleasant about somebody else, it¡¯s a reflection of you.¡± He explained that if I looked for the best ¡¡7 ¡¡people, I would get the best ¡¡8 . From then on I¡¯ve always tried to 9¡¡ the principle in my life and later in running my company.

¡¡¡¡¡¡ Dad¡¯s also always been very¡¡ 10¡¡ . At 15, I started a magazine. It was¡¡ 11¡¡ ¡¡a great deal of my time, and the headmaster of my school gave me a ¡¡12¡¡ : stay in school or leave to work on my magazine.

¡¡¡¡¡¡ I decided to leave, and Dad tried to sway me from my decision, ¡¡13¡¡ any good father would. When he realized I had made up my mind, he said, ¡°Richard, when I was 23, my dad ¡¡14¡¡ ¡¡me to go into law. And I¡¯ve ¡¡15¡¡ regretted it. I wanted to be a biologist, ¡¡16¡¡ I didn¡¯t pursue my ¡¡17¡¡ . You know what you want. Go fulfill it.¡±

¡¡¡¡¡¡ As ¡¡18¡¡ turned out, my little publication went on to become Student, a national ¡¡19 for young people in the U.K. My wife and I have two children, and I¡¯d like to think we are bringing them up in the same way Dad ¡¡20¡¡ ¡¡me.
