“Made in America also talks about the most effective learning environments for a budding entrepreneur and business man. Learning from your peers as well as your competition is crucial when you are trying to build a business. You not only learn from others but you also learn from yourself and your past mistakes. If you do not allow yourself to make mistakes you will never be presented with the ability to learn from them.”

“If you want to get anywhere, you must know your numbers, have deadlines and meet them, and consistently and constantly strive to improve. Apply this principle to improving yourself, your family, your finances, and your community.”
About the book:
Meet a genuine American folk hero cut from the homespun cloth of America’s heartland: Sam Walton, who parlayed a single dime store in a hardscrabble cotton town into Wal-Mart, the largest retailer in the world. The undisputed merchant king of the late twentieth century, Sam never lost the common touch. Here, finally, inimitable words. Genuinely modest, but always sure if his ambitions and achievements. Sam shares his thinking in a candid, straight-from-the-shoulder style.
In a story rich with anecdotes and the “rules of the road” of both Main Street and Wall Street, Sam Walton chronicles the inspiration, heart, and optimism that propelled him to lasso the American Dream
