“If you fulfill your obligations everyday you don’t need to worry about the future.” - Jordan Peterson

I haven't read the book but I can clearly realize everyone one of them in my life. Especially when it comes to friends, we hung out with people just because we know them for a long time even if they don't bring any value into our life.
Great video!
and that moment when you feel everything is meaningless, i guess everyone experiences that at some point, glad that you are back!

[kosmasmanetas]

Although I like your videos, I would recommend to anybody to read the actual book.. you cannot even scratch the surface of this book in a 10 minutes video... trust me, - a random guy from YouTube.

[carlosbanderas]

The parenting rules were especially interesting for me because Peterson argued that hitting your child is worth it if it means that your child learns the ability to be a social person. He argues that hitting your child now is more helpful then them being bullied because they haven't learned to trade etc.
Roughly speaking.

Congratulations Brandon on getting through your existential crisis and as well for having the courage to share with others your struggle. I'm sure this inspires others facing similar challenges and I trust that by now you realize your work brings a lot of value to other people's lives, probably far more than you can imagine. Keep up the good work!

I would recommend everyone to read it if you can make the time summarized mate well done

[Jacky-Boy]

Having read the book a year ago and then watching this video to recap the rules I'm very impressed with this summary. Naturally a lot was dropped so that the video wasn't 3 hrs long but the main points and general narrative of each chapter was successfully captured in my opinon.

[danielsimon]

hanging out with people, trusting them and never getting away only because you know them for a long time is one of the biggest mistakes a young person could make
