Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The number one Sunday Times and Audible best seller from 'the most influential public intellectual in the Western world right now' (New York Times) - read by the man himself.

How should we live properly in a world of chaos and uncertainty?

Jordan Peterson has helped millions of people, young and old, men and women, aim at a life of responsibility and meaning. Now he can help you.

Drawing on his own work as a clinical psychologist and on lessons from humanity's oldest myths and stories, Peterson offers 12 profound and realistic principles to live by. After all, as he reminds us, we each have a vital role to play in the unfolding destiny of the world.

Deep, rewarding and enlightening, 12 Rules for Life is a lifeboat built solidly for stormy seas: ancient wisdom applied to our contemporary problems.

What a ride?

A compelling piece of literature that lead, more than anything else, to me asking myself some telling questions.

Some of Peterson's points are controversial, however the depths of good research and the insights gained from them are priceless. If, and it's always the big if, I can succeed in applying even some of his rules to my everyday life, I have no doubt that I'll be better for it. Poignant and thoroughly enriching. Thank you

An essential for anyone and especially new parents

Does what it says on the can. only thing left is to act upon what you learn. It has greatly imprived my life and the way I behave and can certianly see this book as a good precursor to raising a child with the strong and articulate and non-bullshit rules.

One of the most inspiring books I've read

"Life always gives us exactly the teacher we need at every moment". This book embodies the idea of personal responsibility through mindfulness, awareness and a desire to embrace the challenge that is life. I love the use of religion, philosophy, science and history to illustrate the 12 rules. I challenge people to read and not feel awake to the possibilities of living a full and proper life. If you are prepared to listen, his words can and will transform your life and the lives of those around you. Break the cycle of generations, listen to what he has to say and take responsibility. Suffering is the human condition but with that comes the opportunity to derive meaning, real meaning. I want to thank the author for taking the time to consolidate his learnings into this wonderful book. The gift of giving is appreciated and will live on.

It changed my opinion on nearly everything. I haven't read a book in a while that has had such a profound effect on me.
