About this listen
From the acclaimed, number-one New York Times best-selling author of Make Your Bed - a short, inspirational book about the qualities of true, everyday heroes.
The Hero Code is Admiral McRaven's ringing tribute to the real, everyday heroes he's met over the years, from battlefields to hospitals to college campuses, who are doing their part to save the world.
When Bill McRaven was a young boy growing up in Texas, he dreamed of being a superhero. He longed to put on a cape and use his superpowers to save the earth from destruction. But as he grew older and traveled the world, he found real heroes everywhere he went - and none of them had superpowers. None of them wore capes or cowls. But they all possessed qualities that gave them the power to help others, to make a difference, to save the world: courage, both physical and moral; humility; a willingness to sacrifice; and a deep sense of integrity.
The Hero Code is not a cypher, a puzzle, or a secret message. It is a code of conduct; lessons in virtues that can become the foundations of our character as we build a life worthy of honor and respect.

A Timeless Message to Us All
Well said Admiral!!
Now, more than ever, we need to be reminded of the qualities that matter, that we'd all like to have and that transcends politics, culture or religion. Especially in these times where there are such divisions, and basic truths and self-evident facts can’t be agreed upon or worse, ignored.
The narration by Admiral McRaven is moving. His passion and conviction really comes through and adds that extra dimension to the incredible individuals he describes.
