Picked this up yesterday and finished it today š¤
Although 2020 has been crap for lots of reasons itās officially the year in which Iāve read the most books
Iāve read between 35-40 books this year and this was another great one
Here is what this one is about
Itās based on Admiral William H. McRavenās commencement speech for the graduating class from the University of Texas at Austin
In it, McRaven shares the ten lessons he learned from Navy SEAL training
These are:
- Start your day with a task completed
- You canāt go at it alone
- Only the size of your heart matters
- Lifeās not fairādrive on!
- Failure can make you stronger
- You must dare greatly
- Stand up to the bullies
- Rise to the occasion
- Give people hope
- Never, ever quit!
There was stories for each of these on the book.
My favourite quote was:
āLife is a struggle and the potential for failure is ever present, but those who live in fear of failure, or hardship, or embarrassment will never achieve their potential. Without pushing your limits, without occasionally sliding down the rope headfirst, without daring greatly, you will never know what is truly possible in your lifeā
I enjoyed this one easy to read and short, sharp chapters
Iād give it āļøāļøāļø
