12 Rules for Life Review Reddit

Here are 12 rules for life summarized, but if you don`t have time, here is the video version I just made, 12 rules for life in 12 minutes As for the book, it`s a good book. I didn`t find anything useful for life that I hadn`t read or picked up elsewhere. Anyone who regularly deals with such things (whether you call it self-help or philosophy) will be familiar with the ideas. What Peterson does very well is to make these lessons very accessible and very understandable. It`s not a book for people like me, it`s a book for people who are looking for the And but are a bit stuck in the weeds looking for flowers. It changed my life, made me take responsibility for my life instead of always feeling like a victim. I do not agree with all his conclusions, but it is really well done. It`s also free as an Audi pocast I enjoyed this book (I`m in chapter 9) and I find useful information to apply to my life. I give to this book 2/5 because if you really, really think that you can fight through all this fat, there are hidden gems in this book. In the preface, Peterson mentions that he originally intended to create a short essay on the 40 rules he originally created on Quora, but reduced it to 12 because he “had much more to say.” Unfortunately, what he “had to say” was not the information that originally earned him a first place on Quora.

If he had simply cut the repetitive analysis of Disney and the Bible and just written a short essay on 40 rules, I think it would have made a better book. It may be helpful to think about the lotus flower. This plant begins its life at the bottom of a lake, and inch by inch it escapes the darkness until it pierces the surface of the water and blooms in the sun`s rays. If you want a list of rules, there is much better, or even better, create or own. That`s why it`s important to follow rule 12: Make the most of the smallest pleasures life offers. I just don`t like the scam element. Of course, he chose these rules because they were things he had failed. That`s how people write so personally. And his rise to fame would also have been protesters he campaigned for.

For example, if there is a “lesson”: Be disciplined in life, I would cover entire shelves worth self-help books. Authors need to take this point and write pages of material to make a book. Don`t assume that the book is about 12 rules for life and that the essays explain what the 12 rules are. The 12 chapters are all about how chaos arises, and the chapter title is just a memorable, related, and often tangential aphorism. Another interesting thing is that I started noticing all the rules in the real world. For example, look at footage of Conor Mcgregor walking through UFC events to see how Rule 1 is taken to the extreme, haha. He claims to be a top lobster, whether he suffers a defeat or a victory. Another example is my sister`s parenting methods. She refuses to discipline her youngest daughter or allow her husband to do so. As a result, she`s a child`s monster if she wants to be, and my sister openly said the other day that she didn`t even want to pick her up from daycare. She continued to talk about her own daughter as if she didn`t love her because she loves her (although she obviously loves her). Two chapters later, in rule 11, Peterson`s pathologies are revealed.

This rule is supposed to explain why you shouldn`t disturb children while they skate. Instead, Peterson tries to push his entire political worldview to 10 pages, praise to men for making stamps to the evil of Cambodian death fields and Khmer Snape in less than 5 paragraphs. Don`t get me wrong, I actually agree with much of what Peteron writes, but here he`s just using what a book of life tips should be to attack Derrida and Satre (with few real arguments, mind you. There are many, but he fails to present them). I have the book and the rest. 12 more rules for life. and I would certainly suggest that you listen to the man above. In my opinion, Jordan Peterson`s books are good and yes, you can learn from them, but they are more for people who want to improve and who have moral dilemmas or dilemmas about the meaning of their existence, etc. The first is to restrict the rules. Too many rules lead to frustrated children who constantly encounter obstacles.

So limit yourself to a few basic principles that are easy to understand, such as: don`t bite, kick, or hit anyone unless you`re to defend yourself. When I think about it from that perspective, it explains why JP is willing to do some of the interviews he does (like Channel 4) and publish 12 rules. He almost has an ethical obligation to say “yes” as often as possible. I mean, is there an interview he won`t do? Regardless of the quality of 12 rules, it allows to get at least one thing, it benefits from a continuous increase in general awareness. It`s not supposed to be his big opus, it`s just meant to do something with the current attention he has. It`s probably rushed and scattered, but I could absolutely see him say, “The most important thing is not to lose too much ground as a public figure, to stay in the spotlight as long as possible to spread as many ideas as possible.” Because that`s what really matters, how much energy and motivation does he have to keep up the fast pace? Again, he often talks about his own limitations in the face of such massive attention, and I guess he means, “I use that attention correctly,” not “I treat it emotionally.” So, basically, maybe a poorly written, disorganized book with a certain truth is better than no book at all. In 12 rules, many things stand out as a perception he has through his experience of the world, which I think should be taken with skepticism. This is my personal opinion, because I have seen ardent supporters of Peterson who are not willing to take words against him. The book doesn`t just tell you how to live, or tries to slowly lead you to epiphanies about how chaotic your life is; Instead, JBP weaves archetypal images with essential life lessons (albeit what it considers essential). The use of archetypal and biblical images is the reason it resonates so much, because we are aware of these ideas in one way or another (Barthes considered this to be the mythology of culture, I think), and JBP highlights and highlights them. For example, let`s say you review the past year and find that you haven`t been as productive at work as some of your co-workers.

You might immediately feel like a total failure. But if you had to zoom out and look at every aspect of your life, you might find that you`ve made real improvements in your family life. One of the main reasons to lie to ourselves and others is to get what we think we want.
