Doing this will make you a little proud and encourage you to do other tasks one by one. At the end of the day, that tiny step will turn into many tasks accomplished. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that the little things in life matter. If you can't do small tasks correctly, you will never be able to do bigger ones. FROM ADMIRAL McRAVEN'S OPENING SPEECH AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS DIPLOMA CEREMONY On May 17, 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven delivered the commencement speech at the commencement ceremony of the University of Texas at Austin. Inspired by the university's motto, "What starts here changes the world," McRaven shared ten principles that helped him not only through his Navy SEAL training and long maritime career, but also through the challenges he faced in life, and explained how people can use these fundamentals to change themselves and the world. His speech subsequently went viral and was viewed more than 10 million times. In this book, McRaven tells both his own stories and the stories of the people he encountered during his service as a soldier, who overcame the difficulties and made difficult decisions with determination, compassion, honor and courage.
