This is NOT a book on how to make your beds.
"Start Your Day with a Task Complete"
MAKE YOUR BED is one of those strange titles that makes one quickly become curious about what's inside. At least that's what happened with me. Upon noticing this book, I remembered coming across the importance of 'making the bed' in Duhigg's Power of Habit, where he explains how a such a simple task, when complemented with a set of other similarly simple yet consistent tasks, could alter one's behavior through the day. However, the author of this book does not explore such a complex phenomenon. On the contrary, McRaven uses the example of making the bed, to begin an interesting series of events a soldier is expected to master during his field training.
"Making my bed correctly was not going to be an opportunity for praise. It was expected of me. It was my first task of the say, and doing it right was important. It demonstrated my discipline. It showed my attention to detail, and at the end of the day it would be a reminder that I had done something well, something to be proud of, no matter how small the task."
This is a very quick read, which wouldn't take most readers more than a couple of hours. The author has divided the contents to a series of chapters according to various training elements related to a Navy SEAL, from entry to graduation, though not in a single continuous timeline. I did find most of the field experiences interesting since I had very little background the aforementioned program. However, whether this books is for you or not, is completely dependent on two things in my opinion. If you're a hardcore non-fiction reader, already familiar with a lot of self-improvement books, there's very little new to be found here. Secondly, if you're a connoisseur in aspects of military training already, again this might not be the book for you. However, if you're neither of these, this quick read could provide a good, and simple, framework to organize your life. Rounding up what felt like a 3.5-stars to 4.
"The common people and the great men and women are all defined by how they deal with life's unfairness: Helen Keller, Nelson Mandela, Stephen Hawking, Malala Yousafzai, and-Moki Martin."

Fast, fun and motivational read filled with life lessons. Written in a friendly conversational style, the practical advice can be applied by anyone. Highly recommended!

鈥淚t is easy to blame your lot in life on some outside force, to stop trying because you believe fate is against you. It is easy to think that where you were raised, how your parents treated you, or what school you went to is all that determines your future. Nothing could be further from the truth. The common people and the great men and women are all defined by how they deal with life鈥檚 unfairness: Helen Keller, Nelson Mandela, Stephen Hawking, Malala Yousafzai, and鈥擬oki Martin. Sometimes no matter how hard you try, no matter how good you are, you still end up as a sugar cookie. Don鈥檛 complain. Don鈥檛 blame it on your misfortune. Stand tall, look to the future, and drive on!鈥�

This is a gem of a book. Packed full of wisdom and big lessons in 130 pages. I read it slowly and took a different lesson in daily. This is a book I will return over and over again. Rather than go on and on about it, I will share McRaven's lessons with you, but trust me, you will want to read this book to get the full impact of the lessons.

Can a simple act of making your bed change your life? How can something so simple alter your life? Those who are familiar with the Japanese concept of Kaizen can easily understand this concept.
William H. McRaven tells us some simple, practical methods to solve life's complex problems.

I don't know why I requested this book, I thought maybe it'll inspire me to make my bed or inspire me to accomplish stuff.
I should have checked the blurb and the author. Thank goodness it was a very short book. The author is an admiral, former SEAL, etc - I would like to say that these accolades impress me, but that would be a lie. After reading the preface, I remembered seeing his commencement speech given at some American university. While it makes sense to make your bed if anything to start your day accomplishing something - it is simplistic, and depending on your personality, it may not mean much to you anyway.
The rest of the book has some SEAL training examples and personal snippets, but nothing groundbreaking or enlighting, it's the usual trite - don't give up, you'll have difficulties, you need a team etc - most of them go in the "duh/you think so?" category.
To save yourself 20 mins or so, watch the youtube video.
If you're after great (according to me) inspirational speeches - here's one of my favourites, given by the very talented and very intelligent Tim Minchin - Enjoy!

This is very Team America in parts with some mixed blessings.
He means well, but saying at the start "God bless all the american citizens who died in 9/11", but erm what about all the other people who died who weren't american citizens ay?
Make your bed dammit!

5 well earned stars for this motivational story of Admiral William H. McRavens journey to becoming a navy seal. This book was written and narrated in 2017 by the Admiral himself. The book also includes his famous commencement speech, which took place on May 21st, 2014, for the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin.
Admiral McRaven speaks of 10 steps to follow "if you want to change your life or maybe the world."
I won't list the steps here however, I will say that I was very 'taken' by this book and the Admirals experiences, as well as those who served with him, to make the USA and the world a safer place.
The book is only 12 short chapters but is loaded with life-changing information that can lead 'any' individual to find purpose and self-worth in improving their life and the lives of others.
I recommend this book to all my GR friends and to all others as well.

Straight talk from a former Navy SEAL
There are many "self-help" books on the market that contain solid information. However, General McRaven's Make Your Bed comes across as refreshingly different from those books by well known self-help gurus like Dr. Phil or Tony Robbins mainly because the anecdotes he uses to illustrate his ten key points are gleaned from his experiences as a Navy SEAL. I read this little book in one sitting and plan to buy copies for my children. In a nutshell, McRaven says that life is tough, but meeting challenges with discipline, determination, a positive attitude and the support of others will most often lead an individual to a meaningful life that will inspire others.

"If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed." the author said.
I agree with what he mentioned above. I was told to make my bed when I was young by my mom.
Sometimes, I did and sometimes I did not but now I practice making my bed every day.
Of course, this book is not telling you about making beds but a lot of important life lessons to share.
A little book but meaningful lessons to learn.

Simple things change a life.
While the rules are simple, the more critical among us say too simple, listening to the captivating stories Admiral McRaven shares, anecdotes from his Navy SEAL training, should leave you in awe. He shares the fundamental life lessons he acquired through harrowing circumstances that are simple truths which anyone can apply to face the challenges of life. And don鈥檛 we all make life way more complicated than it already is?
McRaven spent 37 years as a Navy SEAL, became Commander of all U.S. Special Forces and led the operation that vanquished Osama Bin Laden. This book, an expansion of a 2014 commencement speech at the University of Texas, is inspiring with its succinct, yet powerful messages. I recommend listening to this reserved, accomplished man reveal the values that have shaped his life and that can be guiding principles in yours.

January 9, 2025
Every year on January 1st beginning in 2019 Admiral McRaven鈥檚 Make Your Bed: little things that can change your life and maybe the world is my go to kick in the veteran start of the year. Below you can see other reviews for each read.
This year wish to share a different piece to purpose and passion. Basics on how I apply what the admiral encourages in a relatable way.
Less 鈥榮ugar cookie鈥� (see reviews below and read book for term translation) and more civilian application. Maybe this will support your focus. Or, not. Pass this on to someone who might benefit.
What I鈥檝e learned over the years of goal setting and New Year鈥檚 resolutions, I鈥檓 a nerdy geek of my calendar and effort. One of THOSE people some wanna hate because only about 8% of us annually tackle these commitments.
Do you consider the year or yourself a failure when a resolution is lost to happenstances year after year?
Welcome to the majority of people. Discover life is in seasons. Not 365 day blocks.
Even a fastidious resolution nut like myself finds solace in knowing you are not alone and shifting toward different outcomes is never too late. EVER.
The year might not end as planned in the beginning. Along the way tracking the why helps with the what鈥檚 next goals. The best way I鈥檝e found is writing this with mindful reflection.
Through researched learned the science of handwriting. Triggering activating parts of the brain that support problem solving. Plus, by visiting the journey and evaluating the happenstances along the way make room for adjustments.
Rather than feel annual resolutions were failed by year鈥檚 end. Retarget when needed and building new pathways is the ticket to the finish line. Each and every year.
Like, for me, should have had at least two books published that were written already. Requirements for me to book tour are in person events. Guitar playing while touring because one book is a sing along song and children enjoy this besides just signing a book.
If ya didn鈥檛 know, I鈥檓 a children鈥檚 author in the making. On target for a book launch fall of 2020. By the end of that year didn鈥檛 think there could ever be a room filled with children and their families again. EVER.
Without in person events how would I ever fulfill the goal of book touring with song and signing?
Just when I think 2022 is gonna be the launch year this fall 鈥� injury in January 2022. Partial rotator cup tear of my right arm.
I couldn鈥檛 write. Type. Drive my Jeep six speed stick shift. Couldn鈥檛 lift my arm. Couldn鈥檛 paint, draw, help with the art for publications.
Almost two years until recouped enough with three appointments a week at the VA doctors that I felt confident in a tour. Not quite there yet for lots of guitar. But, a few songs might not be so difficult as I get back into practice.
2024 is a year I鈥檒l never forget. Though, just beginning. This is the year I鈥檓 believing to check off this one big dream. Step into reality. By years end book signing with the illustrator in NY. And, touring every year here and there for life.
There鈥檚 more TBA. Though this is the one big goal that I didn鈥檛 feel was failed. Things happen. Either within or outside our control.
Had I not been tracking goals and staying the course may have felt a failure.
Instead, capitalizing on the shifts. Acquired new skills. Sought more ways to expand. Prayed into purpose. Found the long term focus. While meeting these annual steps. One by one.
Earlier today, when waking at 4am turned on Wild at Heart podcast on YouTube with John Eldridge. An author I鈥檇 met over a decade ago. Brilliant faithful led human.
If interested,馃憞馃徏
The big take away from this New Year message is not to believe January 1st is the launch cut off.
This can be a season that flows into the new year.
Frankly, the previous three years feel this way. Between COVID closures, Derecho 140 mph winds taking out my creative arts studio, major injury, and a few out of my control happenstances that were devastating requiring a pause I believe now is the time.
Why share this gobbledygook?
Vulnerable to the moment of the first task of the year. Beginning with sharing this annual Make Your Bed Review.
Maybe my experience can support yours or help some person down the road who stumbles upon it.
Sharing how this book actually kicks me in the pants might bless you, too. With new ideas.
How I鈥檝e done this differs from year to year. Maybe it will for you, as well.
In print, have done a block of years in a binder. Typed a cover page. Added my word of the year, mission, vision, and ways I鈥檒l accomplish this statement. Quarterly evaluated. Monthly, too. Am a diligent big rock minder meaning first make room for primary goals. Then, ensured a balance of areas like friends, fun, fitness, finance, etc fill the remainder of the calendar. While maintaining enough white space for spontaneity and creative flow. And, Dolche Far Niente or the sweet art of doing nothing. Recommend this for everyone鈥檚 peace of mind and health.
I tried living without a paper option for a couple of years. This sucked. I thrive and enjoy journaling. Find this is helping me learn to grow into being an author. Management of time and resources, relationships, service to others, and more is a challenge if I鈥檓 not diligent to what truly matters.
For me, this began decades ago. Over the years the method of goal setting has morphed. Matured as new standards are met. Ideas challenge adjustments to better fit the level of arrival.
For fun, to help me track progress try different log and lifestyle outlines. Sometimes these are a boost to the beginning. At times help me frame the year in bites. Days, weeks, months.
This year at my annual December 31st celebration with my faith family was gifted a free PDF called Good Soil 2024.
Reflecting last year鈥檚 guide am revisiting the one created for myself. Rather than edit it any further uploaded here to give away now.
My hope is if someone finds these useful toward their focus and encouragement sharing is a win.
Step one, download to your favorite file style. Step two, either print and fill out or use via ebook on Kindle and looseleaf. On ISO iPhone use the Books App provided and Kindle or for Android which ever works.
Looks easy to read on an iPad. For the phone can expand the page as the font is small. Then, write answers on looseleaf. No printing required.
Me: printed two sided download. Insert into my binder to use throughout the year. Plus, easy review via iPad and iPhone.
Supplies used:
1- one to two inch binder with clear sleeves for paper inserts
2- pencil with eraser to make changes when needed

This year I鈥檝e decided not to reinvent the wheel of reviews. The first I posted in 2020 includes the list of ten from the Admiral. Other than adding a piece that I鈥檝e noted below for this year the original is worth revisiting for myself. And, since that time many more have joined team Patience. It鈥檚 new to you 馃榿
My hope is you have a delightful new year even if it鈥檚 crappy. Find a rainbow, sunbeam, and or sparkle within anything of gratitude. For me, it鈥檚 this book. A reminder to carry on regardless of how many 鈥榮ugar cookies鈥� the last couple of years had dealt. Read book for reference meaning.
One book down, at least 51 to go. Imma shoot for 100 like 2020 or just 52 with more reviews. We shall see where the walk takes me and I鈥檓 so looking forward to reading yours and hopefully we discover new literary triumphs together once again 馃帀
Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World, by Admiral William H. McRaven is a tradition every year on January 1st.
Short and to the point, this easily consumed book based on a commencement speech and hero鈥檚 life takes me back to my days in the military. Or, as a teacher and parent passing on wisdom to encourage success to my son and or students. Plus, as a human being moving through day to day life toward my best.
This book can fit any of our lives when applied as a lesson. The admiral鈥檚 life reflects a hero鈥檚 design. We鈥檙e all hero鈥檚 of our own lives if we want to be. With practice we are.
For me, appreciate the reminders, ten in total to refresh my memory for the year ahead. Especially, what making my bed can mean to myself.
At the end of the day, it always begins with me doing what I can to make myself have a better day, more happiness, a bigger impact in the world.
Ten reminders + why = being change ...
1- Start your day with a task completed
2- You can鈥檛 go at it alone
3- Only the size of your heart matters
4- Life鈥檚 not fair鈥攄rive on!
5- Failure can make you stronger
6- You must dare greatly
7- Stand up to the bullies
8- Rise to the occasion
9- Give people hope
10- Never, ever quit!
If you want to change the world, your own world in the very least, practicing these qualities builds character. Creates a sense of well being matched by faith practices, company mission statements, and even simple family dynamics.
In 2023 I鈥檇 like to add that the author notes and it鈥檚 a mindset of mind similarly, if we endeavor to change the world as he said for 10 people or in my case 1,000 people who then empower a 1,000 and do this ad Infinitum, meaning for infinity, we in fact within a little over a hundred years from his figures or mine sooner as I鈥檝e already hit my quota and am not stopping to continue, just the two of us can change the world in a few generations.
Imagine, with many more on board how amazing this can be. Especially in regard yo kindness, temperance, and generosity.
We can鈥檛 escape life. Why not make it happier and more rewarding? From one man鈥檚 experience these ten tributes can apply to anyone鈥檚. Take a title, insert how you use the phrase, and your own story is written by example for those you lead. Especially oneself.
In the very least, give making your bed a try. With sincere effort you鈥檒l witness a difference within the heart for a well made bed after a long hard day.
Highly recommend the audible version. Read by the Admiral, this book can be consumed to and from work on an average commute. Finished by the end of a work out or walk with the dog. Hear it as a family. Then, everyone make a list of ways they鈥檒l use the ten traits. A teacher can use it as a lesson in greatness. Children can add traits and how they鈥檒l practice their biggest weakness into a strength.
This book has potential for the innovative practice of those whom desire a better brighter day as a beacon to self and through everyday lives.

What starts here changes the world - Admiral McRaven
Every year for the past four this is the book I begin with. I鈥檓 still drawn to the reminders within the context.
The encouragement is remembered daily while making my own bed.
What I noticed since beginning my year here at this book launch point, I enjoy this ritual more than I ever have.
I鈥檝e even made it fun by purchasing a variety of duvets to switch out when sheets are changed.
Year after year when it鈥檚 time to revisit Admiral McRaven鈥檚 encouragement in Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World my focus grows. My enthusiasm for being more enlarges. My purpose via altruism renews.
A fun fact that鈥檚 true for me as well as Admiral McRaven 鈥� I too went down the wall face first.
Though I was a lot more scared going down the wall the first time backwards. Basic training accentuated my enthusiasm and badassery when challenged.
To counteract razing for my meek nature about the first decent boldly climbed the tower again then repelling face first. One of only a few soldiers attempted this.
The admiral is right. Face first is faster 馃ぃ
I'm not someone who needs to engage my amygdala. Not a drop of need for raising my serotonin via physiological adventures. But it's pretty cool I tried.
This book is one of my favorite rituals that makes my life better resulting in making other lives better.
Happy New Years ya鈥檃ll 鉂わ笍

Reread update review 2021. January 1st begins my year with Admiral William H. McRaven鈥檚 Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World. The first read was in 2019.
In 2020 on January 1st replicated 2019鈥檚 first read of the year鈥檚 choice for all the reasons then noted in the first 欧宝娱乐 review of this book below from 2020.
These two years listened on Audible to the Admiral, who鈥檚 the author also, encourage yet another goal or ways to add to self-confidence with teamwork.
Thus began the ritual for starting the year off preparing to change the world.
Who could have imagined 2020 would be so unique for the entire globe?
For me, all new year鈥檚 for decades represent a reset focus on what I can do to be the change in my life and for others.
For this third year in the ritual add the hardcopy print edition to my physical library to share.
2021 marks the beginning of being a world changer in a new frightening way. From guest hosting a ten-part blog and podcast from January to October and children鈥檚 book blog, too, to the first release of a children鈥檚 series in New York City later this year with the Illustrator Jason Squadrito.
What I know for sure is no matter how much my life contributes to the world reminding myself where this begins creates a deeper appreciation for how far I've trekked through everything from Chapter One 鈥漵ugar cookies鈥� to 鈥漝on鈥檛 back down from the sharks鈥� in Chapter Seven. To where I continue to grow to be more for others through my origination story to the message of 鈥漞mpowering happiness though literacy鈥� whether in word or deed.
I'd like to encourage your first book of the year reflect who you are. Remind yourself who you are becoming. Support 鈥漧ittle things that can change your life... And maybe the world鈥�.
If you need a new voice in your head to help you rise above the noise of negative nouns: people places and things try this book with Admiral McRaven narrating on audio from your local library using the Overdrive App or buy from Audible. To see the original speech click the youtube video here馃憞馃徏

Short and to the point, this easily consumed book based on a commencement speech and hero鈥檚 life takes me back to my days in the military. Or, as a teacher and parent passing on wisdom to encourage success to my son and or students. Plus, as a human being moving through day to day life toward my best.
This book can fit any of our lives when applied as a lesson. The admiral鈥檚 life reflects a hero鈥檚 design. We鈥檙e all hero鈥檚 of our own lives if we want to be. With practice we are.
For me, appreciate the reminders, ten in total to refresh my memory for the year ahead. Especially, what making my bed can mean to myself.
At the end of the day, it always begins with me doing what I can to make myself have a better day, more happiness, a bigger impact in the world.
Ten reminders + why = being change ...
1- Start your day with a task completed
2- You can鈥檛 go at it alone
3- Only the size of your heart matters
4- Life鈥檚 not fair鈥攄rive on!
5- Failure can make you stronger
6- You must dare greatly
7- Stand up to the bullies
8- Rise to the occasion
9- Give people hope
10- Never, ever quit!
If you want to change the world, your own world in the very least, practicing these qualities builds character. Creates a sense of well being matched by faith practices, company mission statements, and even simple family dynamics.
In 2023 I鈥檇 like to add that the author notes and it鈥檚 a mindset of mind similarly, if we endeavor to change the world as he said for 10 people or in my case 1,000 people who then empower a 1,000 and do this ad Infinitum, meaning for infinity, we in fact within a little over a hundred years from his figures or mine sooner as I鈥檝e already hit my quota and am not stopping to continue, just the two of us can change the world in a few generations.
Imagine, with many more on board how amazing this can be. Especially in regard yo kindness, temperance, and generosity.
We can鈥檛 escape life. Why not make it happier and more rewarding? From one man鈥檚 experience these ten tributes can apply to anyone鈥檚. Take a title, insert how you use the phrase, and your own story is written by example for those you lead. Especially oneself.
In the very least, give making your bed a try. With sincere effort you鈥檒l witness a difference within the heart for a well made bed after a long hard day.
Highly recommend the audible version. Read by the Admiral, this book can be consumed to and from work on an average commute. Finished by the end of a work out or walk with the dog. Hear it as a family. Then, everyone make a list of ways they鈥檒l use the ten traits. A teacher can use it as a lesson in greatness. Children can add traits and how they鈥檒l practice their biggest weakness into a strength.
This book has potential for the innovative practice of those whom desire a better brighter day as a beacon to self and through everyday lives.

What starts here changes the world - Admiral McRaven
Every year for the past four this is the book I begin with. I鈥檓 still drawn to the reminders within the context.
The encouragement is remembered daily while making my own bed.
What I noticed since beginning my year here at this book launch point, I enjoy this ritual more than I ever have.
I鈥檝e even made it fun by purchasing a variety of duvets to switch out when sheets are changed.
Year after year when it鈥檚 time to revisit Admiral McRaven鈥檚 encouragement in Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World my focus grows. My enthusiasm for being more enlarges. My purpose via altruism renews.
A fun fact that鈥檚 true for me as well as Admiral McRaven 鈥� I too went down the wall face first.
Though I was a lot more scared going down the wall the first time backwards. Basic training accentuated my enthusiasm and badassery when challenged.
To counteract razing for my meek nature about the first decent boldly climbed the tower again then repelling face first. One of only a few soldiers attempted this.
The admiral is right. Face first is faster 馃ぃ
I'm not someone who needs to engage my amygdala. Not a drop of need for raising my serotonin via physiological adventures. But it's pretty cool I tried.
This book is one of my favorite rituals that makes my life better resulting in making other lives better.
Happy New Years ya鈥檃ll 鉂わ笍

Reread update review 2021. January 1st begins my year with Admiral William H. McRaven鈥檚 Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World. The first read was in 2019.
In 2020 on January 1st replicated 2019鈥檚 first read of the year鈥檚 choice for all the reasons then noted in the first 欧宝娱乐 review of this book below from 2020.
These two years listened on Audible to the Admiral, who鈥檚 the author also, encourage yet another goal or ways to add to self-confidence with teamwork.
Thus began the ritual for starting the year off preparing to change the world.
Who could have imagined 2020 would be so unique for the entire globe?
For me, all new year鈥檚 for decades represent a reset focus on what I can do to be the change in my life and for others.
For this third year in the ritual add the hardcopy print edition to my physical library to share.
2021 marks the beginning of being a world changer in a new frightening way. From guest hosting a ten-part blog and podcast from January to October and children鈥檚 book blog, too, to the first release of a children鈥檚 series in New York City later this year with the Illustrator Jason Squadrito.
What I know for sure is no matter how much my life contributes to the world reminding myself where this begins creates a deeper appreciation for how far I've trekked through everything from Chapter One 鈥漵ugar cookies鈥� to 鈥漝on鈥檛 back down from the sharks鈥� in Chapter Seven. To where I continue to grow to be more for others through my origination story to the message of 鈥漞mpowering happiness though literacy鈥� whether in word or deed.
I'd like to encourage your first book of the year reflect who you are. Remind yourself who you are becoming. Support 鈥漧ittle things that can change your life... And maybe the world鈥�.
If you need a new voice in your head to help you rise above the noise of negative nouns: people places and things try this book with Admiral McRaven narrating on audio from your local library using the Overdrive App or buy from Audible. To see the original speech click the youtube video here馃憞馃徏

The title of this book is all that was useful to me; the rest is cliche and macho crap.
February 1, 2018
Sure. It's good advice if you want to be SEAL or if you're just graduating college. But there isn't really nuance. Make your bed. Saddam Hussein didn't. Never quit. Really?

The book doesn鈥檛 contain any tip that would improve your life quality. I would only recommend this to the ones who are currently in a rut and are seeking motivation...
On second thought, the YouTube video does a better job as a motivation. So I guess I don鈥檛 recommend this book to anyone at all. Just watch the YouTube video instead!

To be clear this is not a book, this is kind of a guideline written by a U.S. navy retired , so it is unfair to rate it the same way you rate a book. McRaven wrote this book after his commencement speech in the university of Texas in 2014. He listed the 10 lessons he learned from the Navy SEAL training. I give it 5 stars. Many people may know those 10 lessons he listed, but few really take them into consideration. This book is kind of a reminder for those. University and college students should also read it to be inspired. And in my opinion, if every person can implement those 10 lessons his/her life will be better and by teaching it to their kids the world would be definitely a better place. I recommend at least to listen to his speech on YouTube it summarizes everything in the book.

If you like unoriginal advice from a privileged white dude, then this book is for you.
April 14, 2022
I picked up this book because I'm trying to get into the habit of making my bed so I was intrigued to see what other advice would be here.
However, I hadn't realized that this book would be an army book full of what I fondly refer to as army BS. Army BS is all the things soldiers are told in order to do their job. 鈥淣ever give up鈥�, 鈥渟ometimes life is terrible and that鈥檚 it鈥�, 鈥渄on鈥檛 back down from challenges鈥�, etc.
It鈥檚 not that this is necessarily bad advice, it鈥檚 just that it is manipulative and simplistic. You tell this to soldiers because you want to create obedient and brave soldiers, you are trying to create people who will run into danger, who will be good teammates, who will fight to achieve the state鈥檚 goals.
This is incredibly damaging. The individual is constantly brushed aside. There is never any room to ask, to challenge the system itself. You are fighting against human nature. I truly believe the concept of an army goes against the truest forms of personhood- curiosity, doubt, thoughtfulness. Above all, I have pity towards any person serving in any military.
I do believe there's a conversation to be had about whether such an education is necessary for soldiers. However, it is most definitely not necessary for civilians, thank you very much.
So this book wasn鈥檛 my cup of tea. I rolled my eyes a lot. I've learned a valuable lesson about looking at the cover more carefully. I don鈥檛 have much else to say about this book, other than my lack of recommendation. I'm really not sure why so many people like this book.
What I鈥檓 Taking With Me
- I will say this- my army friends are all amazing, like the army system put you through so much nonsense that you end up with people who just love you for you. My army friends (who would despise being referred to as such) make me feel seen as myself and are all the most genuine and kindest people around.
- And he shows remarkably little sympathy for Iraqis??
- He also implies Saddam Hussein lost because he didn鈥檛 make his bed???
- Seriously, this book did not contribute much to my life, I even didn鈥檛 make my bed today. Clearly I'm a lost cause. Next thing you know, I'll become Saddam Hussein.
--------------------
I would have never predicted that I'm basically writing my bachelor thesis on why we should defund the police. The fact that this could easily be seen as a criminology paper is jolting. And it's quantitative research.
what happened to me??? who have I become???
Also, this book is obnoxious and I only read it because I started already and it was short. Review to come!

鈥淢aking my bed correctly was not going to be an opportunity for praise. It was expected of me. It was my first task of the day, and doing it right was important. It demonstrated my discipline. It showed my attention to detail, and at the end of the day it would be a reminder that I had done something well, something to be proud of, no matter how small the task.鈥�
Wow. I loved this book. I went into it with fairly mild expectations since it's short and appeared to be centered around one topic. But WOAH. The writing style was awesome. And don't even get me started on the quality of each story that Admiral William McRaven featured in each chapter.
The book is about Navy SEALs. But a lot of the advice can be applied to work, relationships, and many other aspects of life.

The book is about Navy SEALs. But a lot of the advice can be applied to work, relationships, and many other aspects of life.

Making your bed first thing in the morning traps in this moisture, allowing your bed to be a home for up to 1.5 million dust mites. And those little things can indeed change your life! Because mites can produce allergens that are problematic for people with asthma or allergies. But if you leave your bed messy, however, the mites are exposed to air and sunlight, which causes them to become dehydrated and die out. This is a conspiracy by the military to get us all killed by mites! Don't make your bed! Dehydrate the mites! Don't make your bed great again! #fightthemite

My husband is not a big reader. He has a job where he鈥檚 on his feet from eight to ten hours a day, and once he gets home, it鈥檚 supper, maybe a quick errand with the kids, and family movie night. Yes, he participates, and, as I鈥檝e mentioned a few times, it de-stresses all of us and has been deemed necessary. After that it鈥檚 YouTube clips until bed. My husband loves military history so once a short came up on his recommended list about a retired navy admiral encouraging everyone to start their day by making their bed. He showed me, and I was hooked. Granted, I do make my bed most days if the cats haven鈥檛 captured it, but this video motivated me to make my bed every time. Fast forward, Admiral McRaven wrote a recommendation on the back of James Patterson鈥檚 memoir that I just completed. I told my husband that by the way, Make Your Bed is now a book, and would he want to read it over our winter break trip. Answering in the affirmative, I picked it up from the library and couldn鈥檛 resist pre-reading it myself.
Admiral William McRaven served in the navy for thirty seven years and has picked up much life knowledge along the way. Make Your Bed was originally a commencement speech that he gave to his Alma mater the University of Texas in 2014. When he saw that his speech about making your bed went viral on YouTube, he was encourage to craft the twelve lessons he gave at the speech into a book. All of the lessons focus on his service in the navy and what he learned along the way. Civilians from all walks of life can learn from these lessons even if they are not fit or otherwise want to join the navy. The navy seals are among the most physically fit people in the world. They go through hell week as part of their basic training and many in the platoon quit. The average person, myself included, is not fit to join the navy seals, much less swim with sharks and walk up to their shoulders in mud. Not quitting when a task seems to be too much because the reward is that much greater is a universal lesson that can be taken to heart. I know it makes me pause when I complain about mundane tasks like balancing work and errands. I think I can withstand it.
Many of these lessons do include vignettes about the navy seals. Having been drawn into being obsessed with the navy thanks to Top Gun (story for another time, see family movie night reference), I found most of these stories to be engaging and eye opening. I can sleep safely at night due to the sacrifices that these brave men and women make every day. Yet, that is not the message that McRaven makes here. He says that if you make your bed in the morning, you can feel like you accomplished something that day. And even if your day turned out not so good, you can come home at night and lie down on a clean, well made bed that you made on your own. That was the gist of the viral YouTube video, commencement speech, and book. I gleaned much and left encouraged from it. Even though it is short, the message is large, and I have a feeling my husband will enjoy it as well.

"Remember...start each day with a task completed. Find someone to help you through life. Respect everyone. Know that life is fair and you will fail often. But if you take some risks, step up when times are toughest, face down bullies, lift up the downtrodden, and never, ever, give up - if you do these things, then you can change your life for the better...and maybe the world!" (103-104)
It was in an op-ed written in the Washington Post that introduced a man to the forefront of attention, who, through service, dedication, and sacrifice had protected and defended the United States for close to four decades mostly behind the scenes. That man, Admiral William McRaven, would go on to offer much in the way of comfort and clear-headed thinking the country may have lost over the past few years with regards to U.S. leadership by stating such things as: "I am a fan of President Obama and President George W. Bush, both of whom I worked for. I admire all presidents, regardless of their political party, who uphold the dignity of the office and who use that office to bring the nation together in challenging times." McRaven went on to write, "Trump has "embarrassed us in the eyes of our children, humiliated us on the world stage and, worst of all, divided us as a nation." The full article to those statements can be found here:
Arguably, Admiral McRaven represents the cream of the crop when it comes to understanding leadership in accordance with American values, much like recently ousted Secretary of Defense James Mattis. In this short-but-sweet book entitled Make Your Own Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World, McRaven recounts his triumphs and tribulations through the intense training he undertook to become a Navy Seal, and how these universally applied ideas can be translated in accordance with anyone one wants to achieve something higher in life. Admittedly gems like "never give up" sound comically generic to any self-help book, but the way McRaven presents himself allows for this fact to be overlooked. It's generally heart-felt and sympathetic, and interestingly McRaven is able to realise the lessons learned here aren't exclusive to the more demanding of military professions. He is someone who through openness and realisation can see the forest through the trees, which sadly is quite refreshing in the current culture of tribalism and hotly contested ideas. The book also has little tidbits of interesting information, regarding the culture of SEAL training and membership, alongside his interactions and observations with Saddam Hussain, who was guarded directly after capture under McRaven's leadership. Although not a ground-breaking book in the art of self-help, it was a pleasant and soothing reminder of the benefits of hard-work overcoming all the struggles we face in life, and how sweet that can really be.

Admiral William H. McRaven鈥檚 book, Make Your Bed- Little Things That Can Change Your Life鈥� And Maybe The World is another one of those really small self-help books that you can stack on a really small shelf, maybe in your really small tiny-house right between Maria Shriver鈥檚 Just Who Will You Be? And Randy Pausch鈥檚 The Last Lecture.
The retired Admiral鈥檚 book of levelheaded insights was originally a commencement speech to the graduating class of the University of Texas in 2014. These common sense perceptions are the kind of things most folks have been taught by their parents, but seeing as this is in Texas, their parents were probably too busy marching with the NRA for expanding gun rights or working to impugn the value of women鈥檚 reproductive rights to be bothered with advice.
Start the day with a task completed. You can鈥檛 go it alone. Failure can make you stronger. The lessons should not be new to anyone, yet like most of these things, what we know and what we actually do are often completely different things.
For instance, chapter three speaks to it鈥檚 only the size of your heart that matters. Though to a large section of people there would be the caveat that the size of your heart matters just a little less then your sexual orientation or how brown your skin is.
Chapter seven states we must: stand up to the bullies yet last I checked, the White House is home to possibly one of the bulliest bullies to ever make you do his homework and still get your brown-bagged lunch stepped on while Congress is working hard to take away the health insurance from millions of people.
Sigh.
I do like books like these鈥攅ven thought there is nothing really new to be learned, I find them centering. They focus me on what is important and remind me that we all go through periods of tough times and failure.
McRaven writes well and the book is a strong compass, pointing to what should be important in our lives. Plus, I now know what the Navy Seals mean by becoming a: sugar cookie, something I have experienced without knowing the definition for many years.

REVIEW鈥∕cRaven recounts many poignant tales from his naval training and military experiences that served as the impetus for his ten principles. It was very interesting having a small window into SEAL training. The principle are sage advice of heart, perseverance, courage, and risk. The book seems redundant at times but the message was good. Loved learning about the SEAL unique recipe for sugar cookies. MAKE YOUR BED would be a good gift for new high school and college graduates who may potentially facing challenges and workplace adversity for the first time. Overall, the book is a short, quick and entertaining read.
