“Make Your Bed” by Admiral William H. McRaven

The importance of belonging – being part of your group – a great speech. – SA. This speech was delivered as the commencement address to the graduates of The University of Texas at Austin on May 17, 2014. 

If you make your bed every morning you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task and another and another. By the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that little things in life matter. If you can’t do the little things right, you will never do the big things right.
