Here are 5 of my favorite Big Ideas from "12 Rules for Life" by Jordan B. Peterson. Hope you enjoy!
Jordan Peterson is one of the world's leading intellectuals. He's a Canadian clinical psychologist and professor at the University of Toronto. (Before that, he taught at Harvard.) He’s published over 100 scientific articles and he’s super-popular on TH-cam. This book is wonderfully intense and equally thoughtful. Peterson’s integration of everything from evolutionary psychology, politics, religion and morality is astounding. After taking a super-quick look at all 12 Rules, Big Ideas we cover include the importance of mastering the flow or Order + Chaos (and why RULES are so important), Rule #1 (stand up straight, shoulders back! Remember lobsters...), Rule #2 (Treat yourself better! Remember pets...), Rule #6: Clean up your life (remember to start stopping...), and the fact that your Being is in your Becoming (which is connected to Rule #4...).

do u have reviews about exercises? sports? like rebounding? jump rope? Yoga? breathing? Wim hof method? MMA UFC? intermittent fasting? water fasting? thats all important too. not just reading books u know. put THEORY INTO PRACTICE! knowledge not used is TOTALLY useless. knowledge is power when its used! to succeed: u read - u practice it- u get the result: good or bad. 3 step proces.
I wanna know his workout regimen!!! Haha
I love Jordan Peterson!

💌 No. 1 jumps out for me. It lays the foundation for the other points to connect to esp. in this example of the Yin and Yang energy of light and dark comparison to the Order and Chaos in our lives.

Great presentation Brian, you are getting better at this, and glad to see that you have remained committed to your mission. You picked a fine book to review. The few elements you touched on made for a concise and useful summary.
Now in regards of the 'basic essence of the book, getting really really good at dancing with that dynamic' of order & chaos, this puts me in mind of a Christian directive:
"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it."
This narrow way that leads to a fulfilling or optimized life, may very well be the same principle teaching that you and Peterson are encouraging others to live by. What would you say are the similarities between treading the 'narrow way of Christ' and the 'path between chaos & order' depicted in the yin/yang symbol?
Thanks for your note and kind words!! And what a great question! I love your take on it and the seed has been planted for contemplation!

Hey Brian, awesome work... been following for years now. I wanted to ask also, what’s your diet like? In every video I can notice you leaner and more vascular... keep it up!
he is doing ultra low carb
Thanks, Crevok!! I've been leaning more into my experiment with a keto approach: lower carb (zero sugar, flour, grains, etc.) + high healthy fat + moderate/adequate protein and tons of greens. And... I've been stepping up my Spartan training--lots of aerobic work a la Phil Maffetone (we'll be featuring him a lot soon: www.optimize.me/authors/dr-philip-maffetone/) and tons of grip training (installed stuff on my office ceiling and in backyard--lol).

Brian I just love your books reviews and watch it quite regularly. I congratulate you on your mission to enlighten the world with knowledge and personal growth.
As an Asian knowledge is very sacred to us and so is the material (books and notes) from which knowledge is derived.
May I suggest a correction of an oversight which is regularly happening in your presentation. Please keep a small high table where you can gently keep the books or notes (before you start) rather than chucking it down near your feet which looks very disrespectful.
All the very best.
See the best in people too, especially those who put in efforts to help others.
All the best to you too.
Nice review man! Solid takeaways!

You look great ! Working out regularly am assuming ? Not a fan of Peterson and am a Universal Spiritual Teacher, LGBTQ WORLD CITIZEN and Multidisciplinary Artist who is a scholar of religions, philosophy and history. That stated, did enjoy Peterson's analysis of Biblical stories and his interpretation of the movie THE LION KING from a mystic, intellectual and philosophical perspective.
Thanks, Adrian!! For the kind words (I'm really into Spartan Races these days) and open perspective on the totality of Peterson's work!!

Dude... I am a big big fan of yours !! Literally all my books now a days come from your recomndations..... so basically I love this book ! BUT I found rule5 hard to swallow. I know you are a dad !! Do you "slap" your kids...
What is your thoughts on physical discipline!? X thanks Brian....
Alex!!! Thanks for your note and kind words. And re: #5: I'm with you 100%. That was pretty much the only part of the book that I was like, "Dude... Really?!" I don't believe physical discipline is optimal. Obviously, we don't want to be permissive but I believe there are much more wise ways to bring forth the best within a child!

We do not need more rules. We need to submit to the rule and reign of Christ who alone can save us from our sins, which is a world of darkness , chaos , and confusion. You can not save yourself. Jesus said "I am the light of the world. He who follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." We do not need a lobster. We need to take the yoke of Jesus and learn Christ who gives us rest. See Matthew 11:28-30

I like JP, hate this book it's mediocre advice if that. but many of JP's other advice is useful, just my opinion. Order & Chaos overview is good, but make up your room, push your shoulders back, blah blah

*I am really not that impressed by his book for many reasons, some of which are*
*1* ) Its language was not that easy, and the links between the ideas are poorly demonstarted. What does the price's law have to do with us? Does he try to tell us that whatever you do, you cannot change this equation? Does that help us?
*2* ) It seems that Peterson himself is so confused. In one hand, he presents the world, rather establishes that the world should be seen by the Darwinian perspective which is very clear in rule 1 & 2, then ironically and without telling us why he tells us that we should act in the contrary. For example, the hierarachy is based on evolution. If so, why would we help others?
*3* ) He employed lot of religious symbolism while in fact they are against the rule he tries to make and demonstrate. For instance, he uses the christian concept of the original sin which is by itself very problematic, then he tells us, we have to respect ourselves! Well, christianity tells you that you are nothing because you are born sinner and under the wrath of God. It does not compatible with this idea he tries to make. And there are many things can be said about his book which I would describe it as perplaxing!
*Note* : the rules by themselves are not necessarily bad , but the frame he presented them with is really really bad and confusing.
Thanks so much for your candid thoughts on the book!!

"Peterson’s integration of everything from evolutionary psychology, politics, religion and morality is astounding."
I beg to differ. See, e.g. www.currentaffairs.org/2018/03/the-intellectual-we-deserve
Brian, I will always respect your positivity and ability to find meaning in everything before you. However, you can do better than elevate Peterson, who though may speak to some important fundamental truths at times, is not worth the baggage -- and also pain -- that comes with him.
Thanks for the respectful feedback! Part of a longer chat but even if you don't agree with him (not sure if you've studied his work/read the book), I stand by my statement that his integration of such a broad range of subjects is astounding!
Optimize is now free! Sign up/tell your friends! www.optimize.me
@@HeroicBrian Grateful for your response and open mind. I don't agree with the political undertones that are an undercurrent for a lot of his work, though I don't begrudge those who find that he speaks to something valuable at times. I do, however, believe that being a hero in this moment means that we are careful about what stories we give space for, and that we challenge those who inadvertently (or deliberately) support stories that are harmful or inaccurate. Given Peterson's often disingenuous engagement with "leftism" and too often downright harmful response to trans activism in Canada, I believe that we ought to pay attention to Peterson's political project and especially how it's employed by his many fans.
If we want to extract meaning from Peterson's work, we have a responsibility to deal with that which might be toxic, especially when Peterson does so much to, as you say, "integrate" his commentary on a broad range of subjects. Maybe that is a task too difficult for the positive and noble task you've set yourself with Optimize, but given Peterson's tremendous imprint on many young men's minds, the risk is too great to not at least say something. In any event, perhaps this is something you'd be willing to think through out loud in some form, as there is a lot to sort through when trying to find wisdom in a world where its sources might require careful moral navigation.
Thank YOU for your thoughtful and open-minded perspective. To be clear, I have NOT engaged in following the political controversies surrounding his work so I'm being a bit hypocritical when I ask: Have you read his book?! (Laughing as I type that.) Although I don't agree with everything in it, from my vantage point, it's a very (!) powerful call to live a moral and courageous life--something we need a LOT more of in our world. Again, part of a longer chat, etc. but, in my opinion, if more young men (and women) followed the wisdom in his book, we'd live in a better world. With love, -b

@@HeroicBrian I haven't read 12RfL in its entirety, though I've read a good number of posted excerpts, listened to some of his book-related interviews, and have watched lectures and videos prior to the release of 12RfL. I will easily grant that Peterson can say something of value, just as easily as I will argue that there is a political project poking through that we should pay attention to and confront where it's harmful or untrue. Take, for example, his woefully inadequate discussion of mass shooters, explored in Kate Manne's review. www.the-tls.co.uk/articles/public/jordan-peterson-12-rules-kate-manne-review/
You rightfully asked whether I have basis for offering my own critique, and I feel that I have engaged with his work and 12RfL enough to be understandably wary. I do not expect for you to reverse your praise of Peterson; I just hope that you consider this a good faith attempt for you to, at the very least, review the available criticism and controversy, even if it goes against your general philosophy to avoid such things.
crab shoulder posture part is only
applicable part of this book for real life . Other parts just gibble-gabble boring as hell.
