Grinding it Out Summary

Summary of
Grinding it Out
From Ray Kroc
The Making of McDonald’s

By Summary Station

Surprisingly, Ray Kroc’s business success may appear to be fate. At least, it was predicted in his early years by a phrenologist – a person, who specializes in predicting the future. Nobody exactly knows what had made Ray’s father take his little son to him one day, but that meeting resulted in the following prediction: this little boy would grow into a big figure in the food industry. Ironically, these words were brought to life. Ray Kroc became the one to stand at the beginning of the giant fast-food industry. Moreover, he founded the world’s most popular fast-food chain – McDonald’s.
The passion for business had been already clear when Ray was a child. He early understood the power of selling. His entrepreneur career was started in Oak Park, Chicago, with a small lemonade stand. Later he experienced working in grocery stores, including selling soda in a store which belonged to his uncle. Kroc didn’t make a good academic score at his school, so he quit it and joined the Red Cross as an ambulance driver. It was a time of World War I, and Ray was a 15 year old.
