"12 Rules For Life"

 Dear reader,


Are you tired of self-help books that promise to change your life but end up leaving you feeling more confused and lost than ever? Well, I have good news for you. I recently read Jordan Peterson's "12 Rules For Life" and let me tell you, it's not your average self-help book.


First of all, let's address the elephant in the room - Jordan Peterson. Love him or hate him, there's no denying that he's a controversial figure. But regardless of your opinions on him, his book is definitely worth a read. So, buckle up and get ready for some life-changing takeaways from "12 Rules For Life."


1. Stand up straight with your shoulders back

Yes, you read that right. One of the first rules in the book is about posture. But don't dismiss it just yet. Peterson argues that our body language not only affects how others perceive us, but it also has a direct impact on our confidence and self-worth. So, next time you're feeling down, stand up straight and see how it changes your mindset.


2. Treat yourself like someone you are responsible for helping

We often tend to put others' needs before our own, neglecting our own well-being. But Peterson reminds us that we are just as important as anyone else and we should treat ourselves with the same care and compassion that we show to others. So, go ahead and indulge in some self-care without feeling guilty.


3. Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today

In today's age of social media, it's easy to fall into the trap of comparison. But Peterson reminds us that everyone has their own unique journey and comparing ourselves to others is not only futile but also harmful. Instead, focus on your own progress and strive to be a better version of yourself every day.


4. Pursue what is meaningful (not what is expedient)

In a world where instant gratification is the norm, it's easy to get caught up in pursuing short-term pleasures. But Peterson argues that true fulfillment comes from pursuing something meaningful, even if it takes longer and requires more effort. So, think about what truly matters to you and go after it.

Stonehenge For centuries, historians and archaeologists have puzzled over the many mysteries of Stonehenge, a prehistoric monument that took an estimated 1,500 years to erect. Located on Salisbury Plain in southern England, it is comprised of roughly 100 massive upright stones placed in a circular layout. Archaeologists believe England’s most iconic prehistoric ruin was built in several stages with the earliest constructed 5,000 or more years ago. First, Neolithic* Britons used primitive tools, which may have been fashioned out of deer antlers , to dig a massive circular ditch and bank, or henge. Deep pits dating back to that era and located within the circle may have once held a ring of timber posts , according to some scholars Several hundred years later, it is thought, Stonehenge’s builders hoisted an estimated 80 bluestones, 43 of which remain
