Spark of Inspiration

Life is full of surprises. This weekend I saw this children’s book at the store. The story and the illustrations are fantastic.

I smiled, because I remember Navy Admiral William H. McRaven (RET.) from 2014, when he gave an outstanding Commencement speech to the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin.

Since that speech, he’s come out with two books on “making your bed,” one for adults and a second one for children. His message is powerful. Basically, making your bed in the morning is your FIRST accomplishment of the day.

This message might seem simplistic, but there is more, listen to his speech below, you’ll feel moved, motivated and inspired.

If you haven’t heard his Commencement speech, here it is on YouTube:

Have a great day!

Of course, I’m wondering… Did you make your bed? I DID!
