Rule #9 Assume the person you are listening too might know something you don’t.

Why are we bad listeners? Because listening might change the way we think, and change is scary.
Join me for a discussion of Jordan Peterson's Rule #9 - Assume the person you are listening to might know something you don't.
Watch the video presentation on my youtube channel.

Rule #8 Tell the truth or at least don’t lie.

We're all liars - YIKES that's tough to write and even more difficult to admit on an individual level.
Rule #8 in Jordan Peterson's 12 Rules for Life, Tell the truth or at least don't lie - forces us to take an inventory of ourselves and the Gods or masters we serve. I've got a knot in my stomach just writing this.
For this rule I was joined by my long time friend Georgia Spiropoulos. It's a tough topic and I'm sure you'll find it interesting and challenging.
Join me over on my blog - LifeInTheWick.com for more information and a video presentation of this podcast.
Thanks so much for listening.
