Rapid Intake Summaries: Make Your Bed: Little Things that Can Change Your Life... and Maybe the World | William H. McRaven
The Outline of Contents
A. My Thoughts About This Book B. Rapid Intake Summaries C. The Authors A. My Thoughts About This Book
The first time I saw this book was from Amazon.com as a “recommended read” and didn't really pay too much attention to it even when I physically passed by it in a Barnes & Nobles store.
I thought to my self, “This book sounds stupid... Really? A New York Times Bestselling book that teaches you how to make your bed?” So I just ignored it but I keep seeing the speech video on my social media feed as it got shared around and rose to become a viral video. Its popularity grew so much that it intrigued me as well to check it out. I mean, this “wisdom” was coming from an Admiral, one of the highest ranks in the Navy. So I finally decided to actually watch little snippets of the speech on YouTube. As I watched it, I found it to be more interesting than what I had first thought. So I got it from Amazon.com and read the entire book. The book and the speech video were parallel and similar in terms of their contents. But the book offers so much more value than what Admiral McRaven could deliver within a 20-minute speech.
