Editorial Reviews
Review
"Should be read by every leader in America... [MAKE YOUR BED] is a book to inspire your children and grandchildren to become everything that they can. It is a book to discuss with your executive leadership team as a spur to meeting shared goals. Most of all, it is a book that will leave you with tears in your eyes."―Wall Street Journal
"Full of captivating personal anecdotes from inside the national security vault...McRaven's lessons, like his commencement speech, extend far beyond his bed-making. He devotes the 10-chapter book to lessons about moving beyond failure, standing up to bullies and giving others hope."―Washington Post
"McRaven...has taken the genesis of what he learned during SEAL training and his nearly four decades in Navy Special Operations into a thin, powerful book."―USA Today
"Exquisitely simple...superb, smart, and succinct ideas."―Forbes

5.0 out of 5 stars This book helps encourage organization and a fresh start to the day.
Bought this as a gift for a child who needed encouragement to get through a long day with work. The simple messages encourage you to stay organized, and do the small things that help relax, encourage you, and feel more positivity by accomplishing the little things in life. Highly recommend!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great little book
I have gifted this book to quite a few family and friends. Plain speaking, to the point, well written, and great advice.
4.0 out of 5 stars Short, easy read
This is a very easy, short read. It is quite clear that the author led a full life, but the book is not terribly profound. It is a collection of short stories about the Navy. I was expecting something mind-blowing, reading the reviews. It'd be a nice gift for someone thinking of entering the Navy. Personally, I'd run the other way. You have to really love your country to go through all that. Kudos to those who do.
5.0 out of 5 stars Recommend for teens and adults
This book was a required summer reading for my 9th grader. It is an excellent read with great lessons for anyone! I liked hearing my daughter speak about it so much that I asked her to read it to me!
5.0 out of 5 stars Worth every penny and more!
This book is such a great gift. I bought it on sale for my nephew's graduation but I continue to recommend it to all my friends and neighbors, especially those with kids. There are so many words of wisdom about life, grit, determination, respect, and honor... Ideals and lessons often lost and/or missing from our world today.The audio version is also fantastic, delivering these impactful stories/messages in the author's own words and inclination. I also bought the children's version of this book for my nephew. In the event he wasn't interested in reading it, I could just leave him with a few key lessons from Admiral McRaven.You won't regret purchasing this book!
5.0 out of 5 stars Super book.
Lot of fun to read and share!!!
5.0 out of 5 stars Most uplifting and encouraging book!
I already own this book. A friend bought it for me years ago when it came after his speech! It's so inspiring and encouraging. This is a kind of book you can reread over and over again when you are going through some struggles in life.I purchased this copy for a teacher friend who is experiencing some personal hardships and hope it gives them some strength and vitality to continue doing one of the hardest jobs on the planet!So don't forget to thank a teacher! They work really hard to teach, mentor, discipline, and help guide kids to be better citizens and well rounded human beings!

Great Book
Muito bom livro. O almirante nos mostra passo a passo o caminho para modificar o mundo e a nós mesmos.
Excellent Book
Hi, I am Abhimanyu from the Republic of India, This book is based on practical facts, nothing fictitious written in this Book. One of the most decorated officers of the US Army wrote this Book. It's like cream out of Milk. I like the way Sir McRaven depicted the true facts of his SEAL training days. If I applied properly the knowledge I gathered from this Book I can overcome any obstacle in my life & thrive towards perfection. I strongly recommend this book for everyone especially those who are mentally weak. It can guide you through your tough time & unleash the warrior from within your soul. I am truly honoured to share my review about this masterpiece. Thank You all ladies & gentlemen.
