Jordan Peterson wants to help you rise above suffering and find strength and thankfulness in the face of life\u2019s inevitable hardships.

Darkness and suffering are unavoidable, and many people end up unhappy with themselves and with life in general. However, falling into despair does you no good and can cause you to act out the darkness within you. This, in turn, will worsen your life and the lives of those around you. Peterson offers an alternative to despair. <em>Beyond Order<\/em> Rule 12 states this: Be grateful in spite of your suffering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: <a href=\"https:\/\/greatergood.berkeley.edu\/article\/item\/why_taking_care_of_your_own_well_being_helps_others\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Research may also support Peterson&#8217;s idea that our emotions affect those around us<\/a>. Studies have found that our emotions have a ripple effect on others: When we feel well and healthy, we positively affect the well-being of those around us. Again, this may suggest that the inverse is also true: If we feel bitter and negative, we may also bring down the well-being of those around us, as Peterson says.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing gratitude in the face of the great darkness and suffering of life doesn\u2019t mean that you&#8217;re in denial of reality. Rather, it means acknowledging the darkness and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/finding-gratitude\/\">finding gratitude<\/a> <em>despite<\/em> it. Even when life seems bleak, you can look around and focus on what you <em>do<\/em> have. For instance, you might despair over an investment that went south\u2014however, you probably still have food to eat and a safe home. Thinking like this gives you the strength to go on even during hard times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: While Peterson&#8217;s emphasis on gratitude is certainly valuable, this approach may break down in the face of extreme suffering and hardship. For instance, individuals experiencing trauma or intense physical pain may find it difficult to feel grateful for anything, no less their present suffering. Gratitude can help, but cultivating the ability to feel gratitude in the face of great suffering takes time\u2014so <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/us\/blog\/making-change\/201605\/when-gratitude-works-and-when-it-doesnt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">avoid beating yourself up if you can&#8217;t immediately feel grateful<\/a> for the struggles in your life.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related <em>Beyond Order<\/em> Rules<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Beyond Order<\/em> Rule 7 can be grouped together with two other rules from the book. Each one fits the theme of how to relate to the world at large. These three rules deal with questions of a more existential nature.
