Summary
What does everyone in the modern world need to know？ Renowned psychologist Jordan B。 Peterson's answer to this most difficult of questions uniquely combines the hard-won truths of ancient tradition with the stunning revelations of cutting-edge scientific research。
Humorous， surprising， and informative， Dr。 Peterson tells us why skateboarding boys and girls must be left alone， what terrible fate awaits those who criticize too easily， and why you should always pet a cat when you meet one on the street。
What does the nervous system of the lowly lobster have to tell us about standing up straight （with our shoulders back） and about success in life？ Why did ancient Egyptians worship the capacity to pay careful attention as the highest of gods？ What dreadful paths do people tread when they become resentful， arrogant， and vengeful？ Dr。 Peterson journeys broadly， discussing discipline， freedom， adventure， and responsibility， distilling the world's wisdom into 12 practical and profound rules for life。 12 Rules for Life shatters the modern commonplaces of science， faith， and human nature while transforming and ennobling the mind and spirit of its listeners。

Came in search of wisdom/ conservative commentary on life。 Found only weird references to religion that made it impossible for me to finish reading this。 I mean， how can you cite some 2000 years old book as a authoritative source of anything？ Those people didn't know what's gravity， atoms， randomness， causality。。。 yep， they didn't know much of anything about anything。 It's an insult to reason。 Came in search of wisdom/ conservative commentary on life。 Found only weird references to religion that made it impossible for me to finish reading this。 I mean， how can you cite some 2000 years old book as a authoritative source of anything？ Those people didn't know what's gravity， atoms， randomness， causality。。。 yep， they didn't know much of anything about anything。 It's an insult to reason。 。。。more

Slušao sam jednom prilikom propovijed jednog svećenika koja je išla otprilike ovako : " Gledam ja sinoć na televiziji kako tamo na Bliskom istoku ljudi， mladići ginu za svoju vjeru， doslovce daju život za vjeru， a šta radi naša omladina？ Naša omladina gleda televiziju noću， sluša glazbu i zabavlja se。。"Dakle， poželjni su mladići koji ginu za svoju vjeru， bolje i mrtvi nego da žive život kako sami žele。 Promišljanja o životu ovog autora me podsjećaju na tog svećenika， tj。 mislim kako bi Peterson Slušao sam jednom prilikom propovijed jednog svećenika koja je išla otprilike ovako : " Gledam ja sinoć na televiziji kako tamo na Bliskom istoku ljudi， mladići ginu za svoju vjeru， doslovce daju život za vjeru， a šta radi naša omladina？ Naša omladina gleda televiziju noću， sluša glazbu i zabavlja se。。"Dakle， poželjni su mladići koji ginu za svoju vjeru， bolje i mrtvi nego da žive život kako sami žele。 Promišljanja o životu ovog autora me podsjećaju na tog svećenika， tj。 mislim kako bi Peterson bio daleko autentičniji i bliži svom biću da je postao neki pastor koji bi po svojoj rodnoj Alberti širio "svoja pravila"。 Za njega život je patnja， i valja ga ograditi hrpom pravila da bi se smanjila dodatna patnja。 Kako žalosno。 Koliko su mu ta pravila pomogla vidljivo je iz njegove nedavne situacije， kada je radi ovisnosti o antidepresivima jedva izvukao živu glavu。 Reklo bi se "lako je tuđim kurcem koprive mlatit" Petersone。 Masovno citira Bibliju， a podupire moć， moćnike， postojeće društveno stanje， a sam Isus je rekao da će bogataši teško ući u kraljevstvo Božje。 Po njemu svaki je čovjek uvijek kriv sam sebi za sve što ga snađe。 Što naravno nikad nije tako。 Vjerojatno je i on onda kriv sam sebi za sve teškoće koje su ga stigle u životu。 Šokantan je nedostatak empatije kod ovog čovjeka， njemu je normalno da na radnom mjestu kolege ismijavaju， vrijeđaju drugoga， ako se on ne može prilagodit njihovim redneck šalama。 Nije zasigurno bilo lako odrastat u vukojebinama Alberte。 Opisuje iskustvo kako mu se jedan dobar prijatelj ubio。 Međutim nigdje nema znaka empatije kako je bar razumio njegovu situaciju。 Postoji samo hladna konstatacija njegova stanja， "ko mu je kriv" i osuda。 Riječi poput patnje， žrtve， krivnje ， grijeha dominiraju ovom knjigom。 Pomalo je šokantno što ovaj čovjek predstavlja "jednog od najutjecajnijih intelektualaca Zapada"。 Izgleda da je Zapad u ozbiljnoj krizi。Ovaj čovjek kao da je umro nekada davno pa se sada ogradio pravilima da ga život nikad ne pronađe sa svojom spontanošću， ljepotom， nepredvidljivošću i ludilom。 Vidim da je objavio i narednih 12 pravila hehe Čime li će ga život iznenadit iza novog seta pravila？ 。。。more

Every other year or so I come across a book that seriously falls short of my expectations。 This book is one of them。 I read over 50 books a year and I rarely don't finish one。 However， my library book is about to expire and I don't plan to renew or finish this one。 I made it more than halfway， so I believe I gave it a fair try。The wording is too poorly academic， often combining Kafka， Hume and the Biblical topics all in the same sentence。 Even after dissecting the prose in a paragraph， I often f Every other year or so I come across a book that seriously falls short of my expectations。 This book is one of them。 I read over 50 books a year and I rarely don't finish one。 However， my library book is about to expire and I don't plan to renew or finish this one。 I made it more than halfway， so I believe I gave it a fair try。The wording is too poorly academic， often combining Kafka， Hume and the Biblical topics all in the same sentence。 Even after dissecting the prose in a paragraph， I often found it circular， uninteresting or unnecessary。 The author comes across as a Christian， who prefers the Old Testament and the discussions on the devil more than a "positive" message。 His use of other philosophical works support the biblical material。 At the same time， he tries to separate his stance from the Bible alone。 I just was turned off by his rhetoric。 。。。more

I really enjoy the words of Jordan Peterson， and this book is no exception。 I felt like the author rambled a bit too much about certain subjects that did not necessarily re-enforce the "rules" of each chapter。 This book has good bones， but be prepared for tangential filler。 I really enjoy the words of Jordan Peterson， and this book is no exception。 I felt like the author rambled a bit too much about certain subjects that did not necessarily re-enforce the "rules" of each chapter。 This book has good bones， but be prepared for tangential filler。 。。。more

Jordan you knew the last thing we need is another set of rules and yet you chose to write one。Aristotle was wrong， you can't become virtuous by doing virtuous actions。 Thus this book is wrong too unfortunately。 Becoming is different than learning a craft。 Becoming is infinite and therefore you would need an infinite set of rules。 Becoming can't be done from the surface downwards。 First you need to dig and then make your way upwards。Waste of a perfectly good tree。I've only read a couple of chapte Jordan you knew the last thing we need is another set of rules and yet you chose to write one。Aristotle was wrong， you can't become virtuous by doing virtuous actions。 Thus this book is wrong too unfortunately。 Becoming is different than learning a craft。 Becoming is infinite and therefore you would need an infinite set of rules。 Becoming can't be done from the surface downwards。 First you need to dig and then make your way upwards。Waste of a perfectly good tree。I've only read a couple of chapters but that was enough for me to write this review。 。。。more

There's lots of talk about Peterson own life and his political and religious beliefs trying to disregard the book or his work。 No， I don't agree with him on everything - but that's not the point。 If your house in on fire - you don't ask the fireman what he thinks about religion before he saves you - and maybe sometimes Peterson goes too deep into his own beliefs - but just take from it what you need。 Some rules didn't apply to me， certain rules I have implemented in my life before knowing about There's lots of talk about Peterson own life and his political and religious beliefs trying to disregard the book or his work。 No， I don't agree with him on everything - but that's not the point。 If your house in on fire - you don't ask the fireman what he thinks about religion before he saves you - and maybe sometimes Peterson goes too deep into his own beliefs - but just take from it what you need。 Some rules didn't apply to me， certain rules I have implemented in my life before knowing about the book - but even if 6 rules out of 12 helps you， it's great step forward。 In contrast to many other self help books， this won't tell you that if you are positive your life will be great - instead tells you to take responsibility for your own life - there are truths that are certainly hard to hear - no one wants to accept that he is responsible for his own misery or wasted time。 And yeah， he didn't came with anything revolutionary then other psychiatrist， philosophers and writers didn't already talk about - but he says it in language easy to understand。 He does the research for you。 。。。more

Leyendo este libro pude aprender de la razón del por qué de algunas cosas que desconocía asi como también aprendí queQuien conoce al prójimo es inteligente。Quien se conoce a sí mismo， es iluminado。Quien se vence a sí mismo es poderoso。Queen está satisfecho con lo que tiene es rico。Quien se esfuerza tiene voluntad。Quien permanece en su camino perdura。Quien muere no perece， empieza la vida eterna。En resumidas cuentas un libro 100% recomendado。

If you want a light self help book， this is not the book for you。 However， if you want a meaningful and inteligent book that actually makes you think about your life in a deep way， this is the book for you。 It's a slow read， you cannnot rush it because every chapter gives you a lot to reflect on， but to me it was absoulutely life changing。 100% reccomend if you are willing to engange in some deep inner work。 If you want a light self help book， this is not the book for you。 However， if you want a meaningful and inteligent book that actually makes you think about your life in a deep way， this is the book for you。 It's a slow read， you cannnot rush it because every chapter gives you a lot to reflect on， but to me it was absoulutely life changing。 100% reccomend if you are willing to engange in some deep inner work。 。。。more

Peterson's work on YouTube。 He seemed someone who I agreed with sometimes and didn't at others。 But in all of it， in contrast with the ideologue-driven culture of our day， he seems to possess logical and ethical integrity， un-bridled by any specific polarization。 I find him all at once fascinating， necessary， annoying， captivating， and confounding。 There is much wisdom in this book， and also plenty of pseudo-spiritual， philosophical fluff。 Peterson seems to be at his best when he is giving passionate admonitions or recounting powerful anecdotes。 How he connects all of this into meaningful， logical lines of thought， though， is often hit or miss。 His best insights， in my opinion， are found in his pointed exhortations toward individual improvement， which he is very good at giving。 But for a person so bent on convincing his readers they should shut up and improve themselves before critiquing anything， he sure spends a lot of time critiquing things。 This has to be one of the greater ironies of the book。 Either Peterson believes his existence is in such order it can manifest the degree of severity with which he critiques other ideologies， or he believes his critiques are categorically different than the ones he disapproves of。 I'm guessing it's the latter。 Peterson is hardly wishy-washy in his presentation， and this is good。 Unfortunately， however， he presents many ideas with equal severity and absoluteness， regardless of whether his supporting proof comes from rigorous scientific study and historical data， or the vague justification of "it's in the yin and yang symbol， which is old， so it's true。" This makes some of his points， and the corresponding confidence with which he presents them， less convincing to me。Some of the chapters landed well—clear， direct， entertaining， challenging， supported by evidence， and generally charitable toward the reader and the world。 Some took long， arduous detours through unnecessary stories and indulgently verbose rabbit trails that had little to do with the main point of the chapter。 This was frustrating， because I often felt the stories and the philosophical rigor were appreciable， but irrelevant to the main point。 Some of these chapters could have been even a quarter of the length and possessed the same， if not more， efficacy。As a Christian reader， Peterson is an incredibly interesting read。 He seems to slip through the fingers of any categorization or understanding， and his formation by， and subsequent teaching of， Christian thinking is delightfully confounding。 I would imagine to non-Christian readers this gets woefully long in the tooth。This is a book that hits the surface of our current cultural landscape less like a swan dive and more like a cannonball。 And I believe that is in part Peterson's aim。 He leads readers into a great degree of necessary and welcome soul-searching and self-improvement， which is good。 But he does little more to help us develop categories for beneficial ethical， political， or social engagement。 Instead， he tells us all the wrong ways to do it。 And he does little to acknowledge actual societal disparities of race and gender， other than to take a detour through Marxism and write off group identity politics as unsound and untenable。That's not to say he doesn't make a lot of good points in these sections， but， again， Peterson seems far more concerned that we not be Marxists， than how we should be anything else。 "Sort yourself out，" he admonishes， "and society will too。" This might be true in theory and in practice， but is an incomplete answer to some of the most important questions our society is asking right now。 "To what degree does the historical disenfranchising of Black Americans through chattel slavery and Jim Crow impact the disparity in opportunity for them today？" is a very important question to answer。 The answer is not "it doesn't。" And I don't think Peterson would even say this。 But， again， I do think his effort seems solely focused on convincing his readers to not be Marxists more than anything else。 Throughout the book， he dodges these societally-pervasive and incredibly important questions。 And that is to the detriment of his arguments， and to the book。Jordan Peterson continues to be a fascinating and important thinker in an age increasingly defined by groupthink， both on the right and on the left。 Take this work for what it is—Peterson in his purest form。 Someone worth listening to and considering， but not worth believing on every issue or on every point， despite the absolute factual certainty with which he presents all of them。 Eat the meat and spit out the bones。 。。。more

A clinical psychologist advising the world on which steps one should take to live a mentally， healthy life is one confident enough to open himself to criticism from far and wide。 Professor Peterson proscribes things with which I agree and some with which I disagree。 That said， his edicts are worth considering; agree or not。 A work worth reading。
