What struck me when I read this book.

Recently I came across a podcast of Jordan Peterson’s on God. It’s not for the faint of heart or those looking for a quick or simple turn of advice or knowledge. The blogs are long, in-depth, and philosophical. For some reason, they resonate for me. There are also many tidbits of wisdom and insight I find valuable and relatable to my personal psyche.

As a result of listening to. the blog, I went back and revisited his book “12 Rules for Life” that I read a few years ago. Turns out many of the same concepts and themes in this book are in the podcast.

For a reference point and to embed some of my main observations, I created a mind-map of excerpts from the book that struck me. This isn’t a book review or even a book summary. It is simply a compilation of points that mattered to me at the time I read the book.

Maybe you can relate to the same topics, or possible dig in and find your own pearls.
