MAKE A NEW START IN 2021 WITH POSITIVE DAILY HABITS FOR A HEALTHY MIND, FROM THE INCREDIBLE No. 1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

'SUPERB, SMART, AND SUCCINT' FORBES
_____________

Struggling to find structure in your life? Finding yourself lacking motivation?

Start by making your bed.

In 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven addressed the graduating class of the University of Texas, in a video which immediately went viral.

He shared the 10 life lessons he had learned during his Navy Seal training that helped him overcome challenges not only in his long Naval career, but also throughout his life.

In Make Your Bed, he builds on these principles by sharing inspiring tales from his own life and those around him in the military, explaining how anyone can use these basic lessons to change themselves for the better.

Maintaining routine and structure is more important than ever in the age of home working, flexi-time and the general busyiness of life. Learn exactly how to master the essential daily habits that will ensure your mind stays both calm and ready for the day ahead.

Written with great humility and optimism, this timeless book provides simple and universal wisdom, practical advice, and words of encouragement that will inspire readers to achieve.

Must read for 13 + year olds

As an eighth grade teacher I see children everyday who never take a risk, who don't know how to work properly on teams, and stay down after an ounce of bad news or criticism. I wish I could buy 150 copies for each student I teach.

Straight talk from a former Navy SEAL

5 April 2017 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

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.

I got this as a kindle book and starting reading it before hitting the sack. I read the entire book straight through, underlining my favorite passages, and it is so well written! Lots of simple but sage advice and this book will be on my annual re-read list. Great advice from a great hero!!

I will make my bed everyday.

A respectful, thought provoking book which should be required reading for all adults, and maybe reread a couple of times at different stages in a person's life. It gives purpose and direction. What a very fortunate graduating class to have begun life hearing from Admiral McRaven.
