Rule II For Jordan Peterson



 On Page 51 of his book, Beyond ORDER  12 MORE RULES FOR LIFE, Jordan lays out Rule II: "Imagine who you could be, and then aim single mindedly at that."

This rule sounds like it is setting up the life of maverization for each individual young person. He reminds young people to assess who they are and who they could be. Great advice.

Then the eloquent Peterson continues with these fine words: "After all you are complex beyond your own understand; more complex than anything else that exists, excepting other people. . . . You are not only something that is. You are something that is becoming--and the potential extent of that becoming also transcends your understanding."

Jordan here seems to be alluding to the existential fact that the awakened maverizer is in direct contact with what is universal and divine.
