Double Windmills



“Every morning in basic training, instructors showed up in the barracks. The first thing they’d inspect was your bed. If you did it right corners would be square, covers tight, and pillow centered just under the headboard. It was a simple task but every morning we were required to do it to perfection.  If you make your bed every morning you’ll have accomplished the day’s first task.  It’ll give you a small sense of pride and encourage you to do others. By the end of the day, that one task will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed teaches that little things matter. If you can't do little things right, you’ll never tackle the big things. If by chance you have a miserable day, you’ll come home to a made bed. A made bed is encouragement that tomorrow will be better. If you want to change the world, start by making your bed.” – Admiral William H. McRaven, head of Navy SEALS
