Don't Wish You Had, Be Glad You Did
A native of North Carolina, Jud Ammons traces his successful business career as a developer back to his mountain roots where he was raised on hard work as a farm boy. As mentioned in the prologue, what might have looked to others like pure luck or a magic touch really boils down to this: lots of self-motivation, sweat and a strong work ethic. Jud believes that you can't waste so much time planning that you forget to get started. His motto is, Don't wish you had, be glad you did. Laced with tidbits of wisdom, this book is intended to encourage and motivate other businessmen, tradesmen and potential entrepreneurs by sharing his story, his successes and failures, and his principles.

Refreshing!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
What a wonderful and refreshing "picture" of someone who has become very successful without compromising family or values. The author's "comfortable" style of writing made me feel as though Mr. Ammons was sitting next to me, sharing his life and philosophies in warm conversation. Excellent book!
Surprisingly good

I was surprised at how much I liked this book. The author has much more to say than just about his small-town childhood, and he does have some good tips on business and child-raising. The book is written in a very conversational style, which makes it an easy read.

This is a wonderful book that reminds me of sitting down and listening to my own grandfather tell me stories of his life and growing up on a farm.
