| 520 | _a"My Life and Work" by Henry Ford is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The text provides insights into Ford's life, his philosophical approaches to business, manufacturing, and the transformative impact of the automobile on society. It serves as a reflection on his experiences and the principles that guided the operations of Ford Motor Company. The opening of the work introduces the reader to Ford’s foundational beliefs regarding work and service as central to a successful life and business. He emphasizes the value of hard work and intelligent planning, critiquing the then-prevailing attitudes towards finance and profit-driven approaches that neglected genuine customer satisfaction. Ford recounts his early fascination with machinery and mechanics, sharing anecdotes from his childhood and early career that led to the development of his automobiles. This segment highlights his desire to innovate and improve production processes, setting the stage for his later successes in the automotive industry.
