Make Your Bed

William H. McRaven was a United States Navy SEAL for 37 years. Having led troops and served in combat, he became the commander of all US special operations forces prior to his retirement. 

In this #1 New York Times bestseller, McRaven asserts that committing to acts of discipline, completing incremental tasks and persevering are what matter most. He offers a short collection of aphoristic advice punctuated with stories from his distinguished military career. McRaven’s unique perspective – and surprising humility from such a tough warrior – may inspire you even as his simplistic viewpoint may tweak your impatience.
