BOOK: Make Your Bed by Admiral William H. McRaven (Session 1 of 3)

Guests: Gabe Boyd and Mike Thornberry

 

Chapter 1 Start Your Day with a Task Completed

• Make your bed - physical
• Time with the Lord - spiritual

 

Gabe - we live in a chaotic and undisciplined world…this is one thing I can control.

 

Making my bed correctly was not going to be an opportunity for praise. It was expected of me.

• Don’t look for the praise of men…Col. 3:23

 

Chapter 2 You Can’t Go It Alone

 

If you want to change the world…find someone to help you paddle.

 

Seven men, all working together

 

The small rubber boat made us realize that no man could make it through training alone.

 

Now, lying in bed, all I felt was self-pity…but, my wife Georgeann, reminded me of who I was

• Tough love
• Good spouse - calling you up to all that God has for you…

 

Chapter 3 Only the Size of Your Heart Matters

 

Instructor challenged a guy - “prove me wrong” (motivation)
