“Everything is judged by its appearance: what is unseen counts for nothing. Never let yourself get lost in the crowd, then, or buried in oblivion. Stand out. Be conspicuous, at all cost.

"Keep people off-balance and in the dark by never revealing the purpose behind your actions. If they have no clue what you are up to, they cannot prepare a defence.

"Be wary of friends-they will betray you more quickly, for they are easily aroused to envy. They also become spoiled and tyrannical. But hire a former enemy and he will be more loyal than a friend, because he has more to prove. In fact, you have more to fear from friends than from enemies.

The 48 Laws Of Power stands as one of the best books I've ever read. My aim is to create an engaging succinct audio summary of the book that exemplifies each of the laws observance's and transgressions. This book is centred around power and human behaviour which some interpret as, manipulation, thus it is a controversial book to some. A lot hate it, a lot love it. I believe the most important thing in any new-found knowledge or idea is keeping an open mind. There is a lot of value in the idea's ...

The most significant and practical component of Jordan Peterson's 12 Rules for Life may very well be encapsulated in his last chapter - the 'CODA' (conclusion). This video serves as a self-reflective exercise that will take you through a list of very confronting thought-provoking questions. I did not originally plan to make a video on this component of the book, but after reading it, I felt I had to. Don't treat this video as another 'self-help' video you watch mindlessly to give the illusion of...

This may be one of Jordan Peterson's most contentious rules in 12 Rules for Life. Rule 11 provides many thought-provoking ideas on the patriarchy, the effect our softened world of comfortable living has had on children and adults alike, the psychological differences between men and women and much more, such getting inside the minds of terrorists and mass murderers. If you are sensitive to new ideas and get emotional when people challenge you intellectually, then you are someone who should DEFINI...

Jordan Peterson's Rule 10 demonstrates the severity of hiding the monster in the closet, AKA not acknowledging the insidious problems that fester within us. Rule 10 contains a strong presence of practicality and familiarity within it as most will find they can take something tangible from this rule and apply it to improve their relationships immediately. It does this by identifying common pitfalls of how our relationships fall apart whilst revealing how we can maneuver through this chaos into a ...

Rule 6 of Jordan Peterson's 12 Rules for Life stands as one of the most profound and powerful chapters in this book. It forces you to engage in brutal honest self reflection. It forces you to critically analyse your responsibilities to yourself and the world around you. Or rather, understand that before you aim to fix the world, you MUST fix yourself. Thereby fixing YOUR world (yourself), you fix THE world. Stand tall, take responsibility and set your house in perfect order. Click here to Get 12...

The principles in this rule should be communicated to every future and current parent. I almost titled the video, 'parenting 101' (I may still change it to that). However Peterson demonstrates to the reader how the information in this rule transcends the act of parenting. Practical examples and very thought provoking content on human behaviour and psychology are the bedrock of Rule 5. It's hard to articulate into words how powerful and important this chapter is. IMPORTANT: Please let me know wha...

A summary and interpretation of 12 Rules For Life - An Antidote To Chaos, by Jordan B. Peterson. 12 Rules For Life will summate many facets of the human experience and how to navigate through the chaos and order of life. So many people (especially my demographic) are lacking a structure of how to navigate through the world, create their identity and find their purpose within it.
