Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

During my 24 year career as a Naval Aviator I had my share of failures, more so from what I didn’t do than for what I did wrong. I hit the glass ceiling at rank 0-5. This was a tough pill to swallow, so the last 5 years demanded a lot of courage as I served in dead end obscure positions. I never gave up or lost hope. This has paid off handsomely in the form of free health services as I approach age 92.

A simple book with a positive message on how to succeed and the worthy objective of leaving this planet a little better for having been here. I had the privilege of listening to Admiral McRaven address my son’s class at his Naval OCS graduation and commissioning more than a decade past. His advice to “make your bed” and more to that and other groups has been a good memory I’ve carried since and one I recommend to all, but especially to the next rank of young people about to embark on their life adventure.

What I recommend is you give this book to your children and your grandkids I read this book when I was part of a program called grizzly charter Academy. This book changed my way of thinking changed me entirely

It’s great book! So inspiring and an easy read. My goal for 2025 was to read more and this was the first one! You won’t be disappointed!

Outstanding Lessons for life. This is very good instruction that will inspire many people to succeed in life’s challenging journey.

Make your bed is a book that reflects the hardships you’ve endured or will endure. The stories are emotionally driven by sacrifice and the willingness to sacrifice comfort for the bigger picture.

Everyone, especially every young person, should read this. I see it planting seeds of hope as each plans his or her future.

This book gave me ideas of ways to face my challenges resulting in a bright hopeful outlook.Thank you Sir, for your service and caring heart.
