Deep dives
Embracing Your Inner Monster
Recognizing and embracing our darker, animalistic side is crucial for personal growth. According to Jordan Peterson, we should learn to be 'monsters' that can control our impulses, rather than suppress them entirely. The analogy of the dragon—with potential for destruction or peace—illustrates the importance of mastering this inner beast to achieve greater efficacy in life. This mastery allows individuals to align their actions with higher virtues and navigate life's challenges more effectively.
