William H. McRaven
“Our goals in life will give us courage.
Nothing and nobody can stand in your way.
Without it, others will define your path forward.
With it, you can accomplish any goal.
So, have courage to pursue your goals.”
Admiral William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

William H. McRaven
“Nothing matters but your will to succeed; not your color, not your ethnic background, not your education, and not your social status. If you want to change the world, measure a person by the size of their heart.”
Admiral William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

William H. McRaven
“At some point in your life you will fail.
It will be painful. It will be discouraging. It will test your very core.
But, if you persevere, and learn from the failures, it will strengthen you.
No one is immune from making mistakes.
True leaders must learn from their mistakes, use the lessons to motivate themselves, and not be afraid to try again or make the next tough decision.
You can’t avoid The Circus. At some point we all make the list. So, don’t be afraid of it.”
Admiral William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

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.”
Admiral William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

William H. McRaven
“Hope is the most powerful force in the universe.
Hope that, in the very worst of times we could rise above the pain, agony and disappointment.
We each have the ability to carry on and not only to survive but also to inspire others..
Sometimes all it takes is one person to make a difference.
We will all find ourselves neck deep in mud someday.
That is the time to sing loudly, to smile broadly, to lift up those around you and give them hope that tomorrow will be a better day.”
Admiral William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World
