William H. McRaven
“Life is full of difficult times.
But someone out there always has it worse than you do.
If you fill your days with pity, for the way you have been treated, blaming your circumstances on someone or something else, then life will be long and hard.
But, if you refuse to give up on your dreams, stand tall against the odds—then life will be what you make of it and you can make it great.
Never, ever, ring the bell! Never quit.
It doesn’t sound particularly profound, but life constantly puts you in situations where quitting seems so much easier than continuing on. Where the odds are so stacked against you that giving up seems the rational thing to do.”
Admiral William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

William H. McRaven
“If you want to change the world, be your very best in the darkest moments.
At some point we will all confront a dark moment in life.
If not the passing of a loved one, then something else that crushes your spirit and leaves you wondering about your future. In that dark moment, reach deep inside yourself and be your very best”
Admiral William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

William H. McRaven
“Life 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 daring and taking risks, you will never know what is truly possible in your life.
If you want to change the world, sometimes you have to slide down the obstacle headfirst.”
Admiral William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

William H. McRaven
“Start each day with a task completed. Find someone to help you through life. Respect everyone. Know that life is not fair and that you will fail often, but if you take some risks, step up when the times are toughest, face down the bullies, lift up the downtrodden, You will SUCCEED and never, ever give up.”

William H. McRaven
“Bullies thrive on fear and intimidation.
They are like sharks that sense fear in the water.
They will circle to see if their prey is struggling.
They will probe to see if their victim is weak.
If you don’t find the courage to stand your ground, they will strike.
In life, to achieve your goals, you will have to be men and women of great courage.
That courage is within all of us. Dig deep, and you will find it in abundance
There are a lot of sharks in the world.
If you hope to complete the swim you will have to deal with them.
Don’t back down from the sharks.”
