BASED ON THE INCREDIBLE GRADUATION SPEECH WITH OVER 10 MILLION VIEWS ON YOUTUBE
If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed.
On May 17, 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven addressed the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin on their Commencement day. Taking inspiration from the university's slogan, "What starts here changes the world," he shared the ten principles he learned during Navy Seal training that helped him overcome challenges not only in his training and long Naval career, but also throughout his life; and he explained how anyone can use these basic lessons to change themselves-and the world-for the better.
Admiral McRaven's original speech went viral with over 10 million views. Building on the core tenets laid out in his speech, McRaven now recounts tales from his own life and from those of people he encountered during his military service who dealt with hardship and made tough decisions with determination, compassion, honor, and courage. Told with great humility and optimism, this timeless book provides simple wisdom, practical advice, and words of encouragement that will inspire readers to achieve more, even in life's darkest moments.

##在同名演讲上有所扩充。简短有力，少废话。整本书即便是出声念出来，也用不了两个小时。非常能振奋人心。
##Quite inspiring. More a speech than a book. Suitable for children seeking the reason for success. The stories shall plant a seed in the reader's heart.
##听书。" You shouldn't expect life to be fair and reasonable. The ridiculous thing to do would be to waste time by refusing to accept life's challenges. Instead, you need to pick yourself up and march forward."
##练英语阅读食用。里面的内容不及一句make your bed有力。
##女子监狱励志女预警推荐的一本鸡汤书，感觉海豹突击队的训练真的太有挑战性了啊，挺有意思的
##下午花了两个小时认真读完了，了解了一些海豹突击队的训练情况，非常佩服这些铁人（身体和精神上都是巨人）。确实有几处说到心坎里了，但是这些鸡汤书讲的道理都差不多，不是很惊艳，但是基本值回书价。
##看演讲快的多，认真读完的第二本英文书（第一本是大二读的格拉德威尔的异类），全当学单词了…
