Here are 5 of my favorite Big Ideas from Sea Stories by Admiral William H. McRaven. Hope you enjoy! I got this book immediately after finishing Admiral McRaven's first book, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life... And Maybe the World. That one's a quick-reading little book on the ten lessons McRaven learned in his SEAL training that we can all apply to our modern lives. It was fantastic. I had a strong feeling this memoir on his "Life in Special Operations" would be just as good. It is. As per the back cover, "Admiral William H. McRaven is a part of American military history, having been involved in some of the most famous missions in recent memory, including the capture of Saddam Hussein, the rescue of Captain Richard Phillips, and the raid to kill Osama bin Laden." McRaven is a brilliant story teller with, as you can imagine, an incredible array of stories to tell. But that's not why I loved this book so much. I loved it because reading it made me want to be a better human being. If you enjoy autobiographies and appreciate the military heroes who serve our country as much as I do, I think you'll love the book as much as I did.
