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 readers.

Let Bob teach you about: CONFIDENCE PERSISTENCE GOALS SUCCESS ATTITUDE COMMUNICATION ACTION DECISION RISK RESPONSIBILITY MONEY CREATIVITY There are a few people who are truly successful and many others who work hard all of their lives attempting to be successful. As a result, the average person believes that success is hard to obtain and that those who do achieve it are either lucky or extremely brilliant. Most people are so busy attempting to make ends meet that they never take the time to really study the highly successful people. Every person who has made such a study has arrived at the same shocking conclusion: success is merely a decision. You must decide what you want and then begin moving toward it. You decide where you are, and you begin with whatever you have. That’s it. "The only limits in our life are those that we impose on ourselves." - BOB PROCTOR

Book excerpt: Why have people from different cultures and eras formulated myths and stories with similar structures? What does this similarity tell us about the mind, morality, and structure of the world itself? From the author of 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos comes a provocative hypothesis that explores the connection between what modern neuropsychology tells us about the brain and what rituals, myths, and religious stories have long narrated. A cutting-edge work that brings together neuropsychology, cognitive science, and Freudian and Jungian approaches to mythology and narrative, Maps of Meaning presents a rich theory that makes the wisdom and meaning of myth accessible to the critical modern mind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jordan Peterson's lectures and writings on psychology, philosophy, and religion have been a cultural phenomenon.

Jordan Peterson, God, and Christianity: The Search for a Meaningful Life is the first systematic analysis, from a Christian perspective, of both Peterson's biblical series on YouTube and his bestselling book 12 Rules for Life, with an epilogue examining its sequel, Beyond Order. Christopher Kaczor and Matthew R. Petrusek draw readers into the depths of Peterson's thought on Scripture, suffering, and meaning, exploring both the points of contact with Christianity and the ways in which faith fulfills Peterson's project.

Book excerpt: The inspirational sequel to 12 RULES FOR LIFE, which has sold over 5 million copies around the world - now in paperback In 12 Rules for Life, acclaimed public thinker and clinical psychologist Jordan B. Peterson offered an antidote to the chaos in our lives: eternal truths applied to modern anxieties. His insights have helped millions of readers and resonated powerfully around the world. Now in this long-awaited sequel, Peterson goes further, showing that part of life's meaning comes from reaching out into the domain beyond what we know, and adapting to an ever-transforming world. While an excess of chaos threatens us with uncertainty, an excess of order leads to a lack of curiosity and creative vitality. Beyond Order therefore calls on us to balance the two fundamental principles of reality - order and chaos - and reveals the profound meaning that can be found on the path that divides them. In times of instability and suffering, Peterson reminds us that there are sources of strength on which we can all draw: insights borrowed from psychology, philosophy, and humanity's greatest myths and stories. Drawing on the hard-won truths of ancient wisdom, as well as deeply personal lessons from his own life and clinical practice, Peterson offers twelve new principles to guide readers towards a more courageous, truthful and meaningful life.

Download or read book 12 Rules For Success Fulfillment and Betterment written by Timothy Presley and published by Timothy Presley . This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelve rules for living a good life, twelve specific actions to take, and the examples of what you can do in your life that illustrate the many applications. Twelve Rules for Life is both an intimate look into the rules of life that successful people follow by heart and a breath of fresh air in the culture of self-help. Whether you agree with the rules themselves or not, you will find much to think about and discuss in this book. Whether you are living in a large metropolitan area or in the middle of nowhere, I believe that we all need 12 rules for life. We may not agree with them, but we need some guidelines to follow. This is not a book about religion and philosophy; this is about how to live life, and how to live it well. There are no "rules" in this book. Instead, the rules are the way of life that successful people follow by heart--and they are based on their own experiences. Successful people tend to have certain habits and ways of thinking that you can learn from and apply to your own situation. This book is for everyone, no matter what their religion or political affiliation. It is for everyone because it contains the same rules that you will find in any successful person's life. It's truly a guide to how to live, without all the baggage of religious dogma, politics, and bad advice. These rules may not be for everyone, but they are for you. You may not agree with these rules, or even like them. That's okay. The important thing is that they give you a clear idea of what successful people do to lead a good life, and how these principles can be applied in your own life. Here are the 12 rules for life that I believe need to be written down and put into practice today. My hope is that you will not only read these rules, but take them to heart: 1. Be a Student of Life 2. Live in the Present Moment 3. Don't Compare Yourself to Others 4. Make Decisions Based on Facts, Not Emotions 5. Don't Take Things Personally 6. Do Your Best 7. Learn to Say "No" 8. Always Try to Make Peace and Not War 9. Don't Pursue Happiness Only 10. Don't Just Do Something, Stand There 11. Master the Art of Letting Go 12. Learn to Trust Your Intuition If you take these 12 Rules for Life to heart, I believe that your life will improve dramatically. You will become happier, more successful, and you will be able to live life with less stress. What is the "12 Rules for Life"? The 12 rules are not my own; instead, they are the way of life that people who are successful follow by heart. Pick up this book and learn from the lives of people who have been able to live their life on a higher level and start living yours.

Download or read book Political Correctness written by Rudyard Griffiths and published by House of Anansi. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twenty-second Munk Debate pits acclaimed journalist, professor, and ordained minister Michael Eric Dyson and New York Times columnist Michelle Goldberg against renowned actor and writer Stephen Fry and University of Toronto professor and author Jordan Peterson to debate the implications of political correctness and freedom of speech. Is political correctness an enemy of free speech, open debate, and the free exchange of ideas? Or, by confronting head-on the dominant power relationships and social norms that exclude marginalized groups are we creating a more equitable and just society? For some the argument is clear. Political correctness is stifling the free and open debate that fuels our democracy. It is also needlessly dividing one group from another and promoting social conflict. Others insist that creating public spaces and norms that give voice to previously marginalized groups broadens the scope of free speech. The drive towards inclusion over exclusion is essential to creating healthy, diverse societies in an era of rapid social change.
