What do Order and Chaos mean for you, day to day?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll cover two critical concepts from 12 Rules for Life about Order and Chaos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-chaos-and-order-in-balance\">Chaos and Order in Balance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chaos is unexplored territory.<\/strong> It\u2019s the things and situations we don\u2019t understand. It\u2019s where you go when you get fired; it\u2019s the threatening stranger on the street; it\u2019s the scary audacious goal you\u2019ve wanted. It\u2019s also the realm of possibility and where new ideas form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Order is explored territory. It\u2019s stability and structure.<\/strong> It\u2019s your plan for the next day, the comfort of tradition, the customs we use to treat each other. Yet it also can mean concentration camps, fascism, and, less extremely, personal stasis and lack of growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We like being in Order.<\/strong> We don\u2019t like when we are forced to leave Order for Chaos, like when tragedy strikes, when you\u2019re cheated on by your partner, or when you\u2019re fired.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But Order isn\u2019t enough <\/strong>&#8211; there are still vital things to be learned. You don&#8217;t want to be stuck unchanging in Order for all of your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The ideal place is to be right in the middle between Order and Chaos. To have enough Order to feel tethered, but enough Chaos to be challenged and learn new things. <\/strong>This is where meaning is to be found. In other words, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-push-yourself\/\">push yourself<\/a> to the limit of your ability and challenge yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-making-order-from-chaos\">Making Order from Chaos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This comes from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/jordan-peterson-rule-10-be-precise-in-your-speech\/\">Rule 10 in 12 Rules for Life: Be Precise In Your Speech<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you have a problem, there is often the temptation to paper it over, to think the problem will go away by itself. It\u2019s easier to keep the peace and avoid the anxiety, despair, sadness that will come with confronting your problems. <strong>It\u2019s easier to pretend the problem doesn\u2019t exist, than to admit it does and the pain that accompanies it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe you hate going into work everyday. Maybe you can\u2019t stand the way your partner chews. Maybe you stare blankly at the ceiling each morning, unable to drag yourself out of bed. You don\u2019t know exactly what it is, but it\u2019s more pleasant not to think too hard about it and try to get through another day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Left unaddressed, this will gradually build until it leads to a catastrophic failure. You will regret not having acted sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Specificity turns chaos into a thing that you can deal with.<\/strong> If you have a vague unease, you will struggle with it until <strong>you define it explicitly and give it a concrete form<\/strong>. Once you precisely identify the issue, you will likely realize that you were far more afraid than you should have been, and you now have a specific target to confront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a cancer somewhere in your body, wouldn\u2019t you want to know where and what it is as soon as possible, so you can do something about it? <strong>Why don\u2019t you treat every other problem in your life with the same urgency and clarity?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Give structure to the chaos through specific speech<\/strong>. If you speak carefully and precisely, you can make order from the chaos, develop a new goal, and navigate to it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be precise. <strong>What is the problem, exactly? What do you want, exactly? Why, exactly?<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 12 Rules for Life, Jordan Peterson refers to Order and Chaos.
