"Don\'t limit yourself in life by your age, or what you think you\'re capable of doing. You\'re always as old as your mind leads you to believe." \\u2014 John Paul DeJoria
John Paul DeJoria is an American entrepreneur and philanthropist who has launched multiple global enterprises and is renowned as one of the \\u201c100 Greatest Living Business Minds\\u201d by Forbes.
John Paul DeJoria\\u2019s rags-to-riches biography is incredible and truly exemplifies the American dream. Once homeless, he has struggled against the odds to craft a unique life and many unique businesses.
In 1980, John Paul and hair stylist Paul Mitchell converted a partially borrowed $700 into
John Paul Mitchell Systems, which is today the largest privately held salon hair care line. In 1989, he co-founded Patr\\xf3n, the first ultra-premium tequila, and now the world\\u2019s number-one ultra-premium tequila, which he sold to Bacardi in 2018. John Paul went on to co-found John Paul Pet, ROKiT, and many other enterprises.
He has signed The Giving Pledge, along with others like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet, as a formal promise to continue giving back, and he has also established JP\\u2019s Peace, Love & Happiness Foundation as a hub for his charitable investments, which span the core values of his companies: sustainability, social responsibility, and animal-friendliness.
