The HBO Original four-part docuseries BRANSON, directed by Chris Smith (HBO’s “100 Foot Wave”), debuts THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT) on HBO and will be available to stream on HBO Max. New episodes will debut at the same time on subsequent Thursdays.

Synopsis: Sixteen days before Richard Branson is scheduled to make a potentially historic flight as the first passenger to reach space in his own spacecraft in July 2021, the billionaire entrepreneur sits down for a conversation with acclaimed filmmaker Chris Smith, in light of the risk that lies ahead. Smith ultimately takes us on an expansive and intimate 70-year journey, from Branson’s upbringing as the son of a spirited, tough-love mother in Britain, to his pursuits of extreme, personal daredevilry that serve both to grow his businesses’ brands and feed his insatiable, lifelong thirst for high-stakes adventure. With added insight from family members, business associates, and journalists, and illustrated by decades of archival and home video footage, BRANSON reveals the ups and downs of a man driven by risk taking in both his business and personal life, reflecting on the costs and rewards of his lifelong, relentless optimism and boundary-pushing.

After dropping out of school where he struggled with dyslexia, Branson began his entrepreneurial career as a 15-year-old publisher of a student magazine and went on to become a millionaire by the age of 22 with the booming success of Virgin Records. His launch of the airline Virgin Atlantic soon followed, along with a myriad of other Virgin branded businesses with varying levels of success, culminating in the launch of Virgin Galactic, his commercial spaceflight company in 2004. His record-breaking, transoceanic boat and balloon challenges, and now his crusade to bring customers to space, have all been positioned by Branson with the Virgin brand front and center. Branson remains a complex figure, committed to both philanthropic initiatives and his own bottom line.

Participants: Alongside exclusive interviews with Branson himself, the series features his colleagues and employees, as well as insights from both business journalists and industry experts. Also included are intimate interviews with his family, including revealing excerpts from conversations with Joan, his wife of 33 years, his sisters, his daughter Holly and son Sam, and an extensive personal archive of his late mother Eve, whose lively presence in Branson’s life continues to loom large.

However, golf also comes with several considerable investments players should indulge in. If you have just started feeling the golf club and plan to enjoy this game for a long time, you might want to check out some of the incredible gadgets that would accompany you through this new sports journey.

Rangefinder

This device is an easy and effective way to locate distant objects on the comprehensive golf course. This portable gadget that you can effortlessly carry around the fairway is accurate and precise in its measurements.

Using this will cut off a significant amount of time and save your energy by looking through yardage books and additional math games. A rangefinder also utilizes laser technology to determine distances and magnifiers for clearer sight on far reaches.

Golf Simulator

This equipment is a very innovative and helpful way to experience golf. Anyone can easily set it up inside the house. You can conveniently play golf using simulators with your family and friends without thinking about the condition of the weather outside.

The better choice for a golf simulator is the one by SkyTrak. This device comes with many features such as performance metrics, thousands of golf courses, video support, and many other helpful tasks. It has a pro-feel to it as it accurately gives your swing speed, launch angle, ball speed, among others. Its simulation is also at high-definition graphics for more immersive virtual gaming.

GPS Watch

GPS tracking watches are easy and interactive tools that will help you navigate golf courses. Many GPS watches specifically made for golfers have thousands of golf courses preloaded in the device’s operating system. This way, the maps are stress-free and convenient to use. As a handy device, some also have features that can record scores, so you don’t need to memorize them.

Swing Trainer

Having a proper swing is vital as it makes a good hit and prevents any accidents that can affect you and other people. Swing trainers mainly help in the improvement of your swing performance. This trainer will improve your grip and wrist positions, making handling easier to enhance the hit itself. It can also develop a constant swing speed to learn your swing tempo.

Fitness Watch

A fitness watch is not inherently only for golf players, but this is a very helpful gadget to have while playing.

These wearables serve as your monitor to keep your health in check. It comes with important measurements such as blood pressure, pulse rate, and oxygen level. The wristband, however, should be strong enough for harsh environments.

However, one can now enjoy this sport and even make a career out of it by investing in one-time equipment. So if you’re dead serious about breaking through the golfing realm’s A-list, the above are some of the tools to consider greatly.

” When I got enough confidence, the stage was gone….. When I was sure of Losing, I won……. When I needed People the most, they Left me……. When I learnt to dry my Tears, I found a shoulder to Cry on…… When I mastered the Skill of Hating, Someone started Loving me from the core of the Heart…… And, while waiting for Light for Hours when I fell asleep, the Sun came out….. That’s LIFE!! No matter what you Plan, you never know what Life has Planned for you…… Success introduces you to the World……. But Failure introduces the World to you……. ……Always be Happy!! Often when we lose Hope and think this is the end… God smiles from above and says, “Relax Sweetheart; It’s just a Bend, not the End..!”

WORTH READING IT AGAIN AND AGAIN
