Publisher's Synopsis
''A picture tells a thousand words"
Many can benefit from some of the ideas that Jordan Peterson shares. Many have found inspiration in his teachings, but not everyone will tune in to lengthy lectures. If you have been heartened by Peterson's work and looking for a modality that might capture the interest of someone you know, this newly expanded book might prove a compelling introduction to ideas that can be life altering!
Peterson describes a hallmark of truth, saying "it snaps things together....You have a nature, and when you feel that nature articulated, it's like the act of snapping the puzzle pieces together." In this work, the goal is to facilitate that type of revelation, by pairing compelling quotations with visual images which can then be colored! Using humor, word play and creative visual renderings, this work will unlock insight into self and other, detonating truth bombs that let readers peek into the infrastructure of reality and access some of the fascinating insights that underpin Jordan Peterson's worldview. In a resource designed to inspire growth, learning - and a cleaner room - the author provides an inroad, allowing readers to access teachings that have catalyzed many.
Coloring books allow readers to reflect and focus, building concentration skills, this in an age characterized by distraction, busyness and skimming. The coloring book modality is designed to bring quiet back into life. As a modality, it also reinforces Peterson's message: 'what if you attended to each detail in your life like it mattered. Imagine what that outcome would look like!'
Once introduced to memorable quotes and concepts, readers can follow up by watching Peterson's lectures. Additional journaling pages are provided for those who further explore Peterson's work to curate content, recording quotes as they come upon them.
