1
If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed.
2
If you make your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the first task of the day.
3
It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task, and another, and another.
4
And by the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed.
5
Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that the little things in life matter.
6
If you can't do the little things right, you'll never be able to do the big things right.
7
And if by chance you have a miserable day, you will come home to a bed that is made. That you made.
8
And a made bed gives you encouragement that tomorrow will be better.
9
To pass SEAL training, there are a series of long swims that must be completed.
10
One is the night swim.
11
Before the swim, the instructors joyfully brief the students on all the species of sharks that inhabit the waters off San Clemente.
12
They assure you, however, that no student has ever been eaten by a shark, at least not that they can remember.
13
But you were also taught that if a shark begins to circle your position, stay on your ground.
14
Do not swim away.
15
Do not act afraid.
16
And if the shark, hungry for a midnight snack, darts towards you, then summons up all your strength and punch him in the snout, and he will turn and swim away.
17
There are a lot of sharks in the world.
18
If you hope to complete the swim, you will have to deal with them.
19
So if you want to change the world, don't back down from the sharks.
20
Over a few weeks of difficult training, my SEAL class, which started with 150 men, was down to just 42.
21
There were now six boat crews of seven men each.
22
I was in the boat with the tall guys, but the best boat crew we had was made up of the little guys, the Munchkin crew we called them.
23
No one was over 5'5".
24
The Munchkin boat crew had one American Indian, one African American, one Polish American, one Greek American, one Italian American, and two tough kids from the Midwest.
25
They out paddled, out ran, and out swam all the other boat crews.
26
The big men
27
and the other boat crews would always make good-natured fun of
28
the tiny little flippers the munchkins put on their tiny little feet prior to every swim.
29
But somehow these little guys from every corner of the nation and the world always had the last laugh, swimming faster than everyone and reaching the shore long before the rest of us.
30
SEAL training was a great equalizer.
31
Nothing mattered but your will to succeed not your color, not your ethnic background, not your education, not your social status.
32
If you want to change the world, measure a person by the size of their heart, not by the size of their flippers.
33
The ninth week of training is referred to as Hell Week.
34
It is six days of no sleep, constant physical and mental harassment, and one special day at the mudflats.
35
The mudflats are an area between San Diego and Tijuana, where the water runs off and creates the Tijuana Sloughs, a swampy patch of terrain where the mud will engulf you.
36
It is on Wednesday of Hell Week that you paddle down in the mudflats
37
and spend the next 15 hours trying to survive the freezing cold, the howling wind, and the incessant pressure to quit from the instructors.
38
As the sun began to set that Wednesday evening, my training class, having committed some egregious infraction of the rules, was ordered into the mud.
39
The mud consumed each man until there was nothing visible but our heads.
40
The instructors told us we could leave the mud if only five men would quit.
41
Only five men, just five men, and we could get out of the oppressive cold.
42
Looking around the mudflat, it was apparent that some students were about to give up.
43
It was still over eight hours till the sun came up.
44
Eight more hours of bone-chilling cold.
45
The chattering teeth and the shivering moans of the trainees were so loud, it was hard to hear anything.
46
And then one voice began to echo through the night.
47
One voice raised in song.
48
The song was terribly out of tune, but sung with great enthusiasm.
49
One voice became two, and two became three, and before long, everyone in the class was singing.
50
The instructors threatened us with more time in the mud if we kept up the singing, but the singing persisted, and somehow the mud seemed a little warmer,
51
and the wind a little tamer, and the dawn not so far away.
52
If I have learned anything in my time traveling the world, it is the power of hope.
53
The power of one person, a Washington, a Lincoln, King, Mandela, and even a young girl from Pakistan, Malala.
54
One person can change the world by giving people hope.
55
So if you want to change the world, start each day with a task completed.
56
Find someone to help you through life.
57
Respect everyone.
58
Know that life is not fair and that you will fail often.
59
But if you take some risks, step up when the times are the toughest, face down the bullies, lift up the downtrodden, and never ever give up.
60
If you do these things, the next generation and the generations that follow will live in a world far better than the one we have today.
61
And what started here will indeed have changed the world for the better.

このレッスンについて
「Speech To Change Your Life Today! Admiral McRaven "Make Your Bed" Motivational Words Of Wisdom」を使って、シャドーイングで英語を練習しましょう。
毎日15〜30分の練習で、IELTSスピーキングへの自信と実践的な英会話力が身につきます。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
