I listened to a fair few Jordan Peterson podcasts including one with Tim Ferriss and another with Mark Manson. There are too many unnecessary detailed passages surrounding religion but these can be scanned over. The premise of their being a narrow path between chaos and order that we should aim to walk along feels very truthful to me. And how the rules are set up in a way to balance one thing with another. I love his honesty about the yin and yang, light and dark of the world. His views can often be contrary to my own personal views however this has pushed my own thinking further and I have welcomed this challenge on my ideas. The rules feel actionable and lead you on an interesting path of self-discovery through a process of questioning and seeing yourself in elements of his anecdotes, patients and narratives. The book flows and the tone is appropriate for the topics he discusses. The book uses complex and sophisticated language but the word choice is impeccable. The rules are important and pivotal and the rules fit with our time and link to real current social issues.
However, this book has really surprised me.
For me it was full of long-winded, irrelevant, unaccessible stories and the rules felt loose and unhelpful and with little substance. I really disliked his first book, 12 rules for life. The book unpacks the inherent dangers of being too complacent or afraid of change in our lives. Neither complete order or complete chaos will give you fulfilment.īeyond Order encourage the readers to reach out into the domain beyond which is essential in adjusting to an ever-changing world. Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life by Jordan Peterson 🚀 The Book in 3 Sentences
