!!!!!SPOILER ALERT!!!!!
Okay, so since the advice in this book is so good and needs to be spread throughout the world. I am gonna give you snapshots of every single rule. Hopefully, it will intrigue you enough to go out and read the full book and get full in-depth experience that this book will give you. I will say don't take the book lightly, really read and think about what the book is saying and how it pertains to your own life.
SCIENCE! That's the first word that popped into my head during this chapter, at least in the beginning of it. The author talks about birds, lobsters, and other animals. He goes into detail about each one's way of showing dominance and the hierarchy system that they enforce because that is what they all have in common. That is what the chapter goes on to talk about.
Peterson goes on to provide the benefits of living higher in the hierarchy and the awful circumstances of being lower. The ones who are lower are stuck living with the circumstances in a destructive loop that only drags them lower or doesn't allow them to grow. At that point, your life really isn't happy, its just filled with anxiety.
The author then goes into the hierarchy that is awfully known as bullying. People are bullied when they can't fight back or when they choose not to fight, not to be violent. Bullying is put up with at all times of someone's life. STOP TAKING IT!!! Everyone allows this to cause them to hit rock bottom. The thing about rock bottom is its real, and they only way to go up is to accept that you have hit rock bottom. "Standing up physically also implies and invokes and demands standing up metaphysically. Standing up means voluntarily accepting the burden of Being."
