Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World by William H. McRaven
2.0
Errm. Not for me. I went in fully expecting to be inspired. I *do* think you should make your bed!
But ... like, it’s not even accurate to say the advice boils down to things like “don’t give up,” “don’t judge people by how they look,” “hard work pays off.” The advice just *is* that, full stop. There is not more to it than that.
(And it ignores completely the possibility that there are times that giving up might be for the best or you work hard and it doesn’t pay off. There is no advice beyond that.)
