12 Rules for Life

I recently started reading 12 Rules for Life again – for the third time. Jordan Peterson has spent a lifetime developing a gift for the rest of us. And that gift can be summed in two words: Objective Correctness.

Here are the 12 Rules – incase you aren’t interested in googling them for yourself.

  • Rule 1: Stand up straight with your shoulders back
  • Rule 2: Treat yourself like someone you are responsible for helping
  • Rule 3: Make friends with people who want the best for you
  • Rule 4: Compaire yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today
  • Rule 5: Do not let your children do anything that makes you dislike them
  • Rule 6: Set your house in perfect order before you criticize the world
  • Rule 7: Pursue what is meaningful (not what is expedient)
  • Rule 8: Tell the truth—or, at least, don’t lie
  • Rule 9: Assume that the person you are listening to might know something you don’t
  • Rule 10: Be precise in your speech
  • Rule 11: Do not bother children when they are skateboarding
  • Rule 12: pet a cat when you encounter one on the street
