In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Business Rockstars sits down with John Paul DeJoria, co-founder of John Paul Mitchell System and Patron Tequila, who talks about his early start in business and the importance of giving back.

As a child, DeJoria remembers giving just a single dime to charity because that was all his family could afford. However, his mother always instilled in him the idea that someone is always in more need than he was, and so DeJoria has made giving back an important part of his mission. That's why he celebrates charitable causes more than he celebrates his own birthday -- or even the day he learned that he was worth a billion dollars.
