A shared cultural system stabilizes human interaction, but is also a system of value-a hierarchy of value, where some things are given priority and importance and others are not. They will fight, instead, to maintain the match between what they believe, what they expect, and what they desire. It isn’t precisely that people will fight for what they believe.Shared beliefs simplify the world, as well, because people who know what to expect from one another can act together to tame the world."What shall I do when my enemy succeeds? Aim a little higher and be grateful for the lesson."."There is little, in a marriage, that is so little that it is not worth fighting about."."What saves is the willingness to learn from what you don’t know."."It is far better to render Beings in your care competent than to protect them."."Virtue signalling is, quite possible, our commonest vice.".In my opinion, the organization just makes it far too difficult to actually absorb it. Overall, there are great sections, and a large amount of information in the book. Despite the complicated sections that could be broken up, some rules could have been summarized in a much shorter form, and indeed, Peterson originally came up with the list in a much shorter form for Quora - at times it feels like this.At the same time, many sections feel meandering, and the connections that Peterson tries to make often don’t make sense to me, to the point that I have to re-read repeatedly, and ultimately just make me frustrated.The book feels disjointed - there should be more than 12 rules, and more sections, and the book would be much clearer.This seems to be a result of a few things: The main problem I have with it is the poor flow.
There is good information here, but I found the book unnecessarily bloated and cluttered. Ultimately, the rating I gave it (6/10), is a reflection of the poor organization and flow of this book. I really struggled to come up with a rating for this book.
