But as the world changes, maps go out of date and lead you astray. And since the Chaos is not going away, it\u2019s time you stop fearing it and learn to surf it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To Caesar what is&nbsp;<strong>Caesar\u2019s<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I might be a progressive, but there is much I agree with when reading Peterson\u2019s books. You should certainly develop self-respect, tell the truth, pursue that which has real value, learn to appreciate the small things in life, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think his writing style is captivating and while some take issue with the references to myth and archetypes, I think they are great. Humans have been using those to make sense of the world for millennia for a reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also admire his capacity to inspire people to improve their lives without judgment or making them feel like failures. There is much that progressive commentators could learn from him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But most importantly, I think that he correctly and very astutely identifies the pains of modernity\u200a\u2014\u200aand of modern men in particular. The confusion, being lost, feeling like the carpet has been pulled from under our feet. Like we\u2019ve been taught one thing, but now we\u2019re told it\u2019s all wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chaos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hurts, doesn\u2019t it? Being lied&nbsp;to. Being told you\u2019re one thing and then learning it\u2019s all a fiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, men absolutely do need some way to deal with all this Chaos around us and Peterson\u2019s charisma pulls many towards following his Map.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m not going to discuss his rules or ideas. Nor do I care what you think about them either. I\u2019ve got a more fundamental issue to raise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You see, there is a problem with printing maps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They go out of date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Change and&nbsp;Chaos<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As the world keeps changing, things are no longer what and where they used to be. An old map might get you to many places just fine, but all too often following it will leave you looking for stuff that\u2019s no longer there or surprised at encountering things you didn\u2019t expect to find.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem with Peterson\u2019s map is worse though: it was way out of date already at the point of publishing. It seems like he drew it from memory, showing the world as it was in thelast century\u2019s Alberta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps on Peterson\u2019s old map climate change wasn\u2019t a problem (yet) and people getting to choose their gender was the domain of science fiction. Perhaps the social power dynamics were different. But the world has changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Peterson doesn\u2019t seem to like change. To him, that\u2019s just Chaos. It\u2019s the dreaded Relativism of not knowing what\u2019s what anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, well, the world doesn\u2019t care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It keeps changing anyway and does so at a faster pace than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since Peterson released his <em>12 Rules For Life<\/em>, we have witnessed a pandemic, a recession, a war which brought back the spectre of nuclear extinction, reinvigorated old alliances and changed international dynamics, and the emergence of generative AIs which are already completely reshaping our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the world power balance continues to shift eastwards, new media change how we consume information and build relations with other people, and nobody is having kids anymore so we need to seriously rethink the entire economy to make sure we won\u2019t all starve once we \u2018retire\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since at least 2016 I have been celebrating every New Year\u2019s Eve saying: may there be no more of this mess going forward! If the Universe was listening, it was clearly laughing at me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We live in interesting times. The boundaries of states, of power, of who gets to do what, of what is normal, of the very fabric of our society, are redrawn every day. Do you feel like someone is pulling the carpet from under your feet? It\u2019s not the carpet! The whole damn world is shifting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not a world in which you can rely on a map an old man has drawn from memory of his younger years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this world, you need to go back to something more fundamental, more universal, more basic than that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why I like the Compass metaphor. The world might be changing, but the fundamental directions, the fundamental Values can still guide you. And, as Aristotle has argued, developing Excellence in a range of Virtues will allow you to keep your direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Surfing the&nbsp;Chaos<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Peterson does draw our attention to the positive sides of Chaos, too. It\u2019s Chaos that brings opportunities, enables creativity and challenges ossified traditions, he admits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it is pretty clear that all of those matter much less to him than Order. He claimed that his <em>Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life<\/em> is more directed towards harnessing Chaos, but let\u2019s be honest, these rules are not half as good as the first twelve and you can tell his heart wasn\u2019t in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So at this point, I would like to thank Dr Peterson for his good work on drawing some decent maps that are clearly better than nothing and can help some people get out of the deep waters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that\u2019s where we part. He continues to pretend that the changing world can still be navigated based on those old maps. He continues to treat Chaos as something to avoid and thwart wherever possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I say: don\u2019t fear Chaos. Chaos might bring some instability. It might make you feel that you may lose. Sometimes painfully. But you won\u2019t die. You will survive, because Chaos is also the source of life, an opportunity to become anything you want, to shape the world and build new and awesome things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might feel like you\u2019re falling for thirty minutes, but you\u2019ll be fine. You just need to throw away the map, take out your Compass, and get a surfboard. Where does the surfboard come from? I don\u2019t know. Chaos provides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the world is changing faster than ever and it won\u2019t stop just because Dr Peterson wants it to. If you don\u2019t move on with it, you will be left behind. You won\u2019t have a say in shaping&nbsp;it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The history of humanity is the history of changing the world. Of transcending what is natural and developing new, better ways to be. Of creating stuff that wasn\u2019t there before and throwing away what\u2019s old and outdated. Of wrestling possibilities out of Chaos and making them real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be a part of that history and I assure you, brother, the sun will shine on us again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jordan Peterson describes the modern world as chaotic and claims to offer you a map that will help you safely navigate through it.
