I don’t think that you have any insight whatsoever into your capacity for good until you have some well-developed insight into your capacity for evil.

Jordan Peterson

You should never sacrifice what you could be for what you are.

Be Yourself Sacrifice Worth
The secret to your existence is right in front of you. It manifests itself as all those things you know you should do but are avoiding.
JORDAN PETERSON

Consult your resentment. It’s a revelatory emotion, for all its pathology.
JORDAN PETERSON

Emotion Yourself
But we can aim too high. Or too low. Or too chaotically. So we fail and live in disappointment, even when we appear to others to be living well.
JORDAN PETERSON

Dream Failure Live Philosophy
Every bit of learning is a little death. Every bit of new information challenges a previous conception, forcing it to dissolve into chaos before it can be reborn as something better. Sometimes such deaths virtually destroy us.
JORDAN PETERSON

Born Death Destruction Force Learning

JORDAN PETERSON

JORDAN PETERSON

When the aristocracy catches a cold, as it is said, the working class dies of pneumonia.
JORDAN PETERSON

Death Politics Sick
We require routine and tradition. That’s order. Order can become excessive, and that’s not good, but chaos can swamp us, so we drown – and that is also not good. We need to stay on the straight and narrow path.
JORDAN PETERSON

You’re not perfect just the way you are. You could be better!
JORDAN PETERSON

You should not overlook the guidelines of your culture. Life is short, and you don’t have time to figure everything out on your own. The wisdom of the past was hard-earned, and your dead ancestors may have something useful to tell you.
JORDAN PETERSON

There’s a worthy and noble ambition: strength in the face of adversity. That is very different from the wish for a life free of trouble.
