Mark Manson's 3 Rules for Life

These 3 Rules for Life are simple, straightforward but nearly impossible to adhere to.

One of the best lessons I’ve taken from @Jordan B Peterson over the years is that we can create rules for life for ourselves. I think this is incredibly profound. The idea that we can set our own principles to navigate the world promotes self-control and discipline.

So I sat down and asked myself, what are MY rules for life? And, what makes a good rule for life? For me, they need to be simple and straight to the point, but also nearly impossible to achieve – because why would you want a rule for life you can hit within a year? They should require constant effort.

I’ve shared my three in this video. You can love them or hate them, take them or leave them, I don’t care. But I’d like to see your rules for life in the comments.

Timecodes:

RULE #1: You are responsible for everything in your own experience. Even if it’s not your fault. 1:45

RULE #2: There is no such thing as a bad emotion. There are only bad reactions to emotions. 6:06

RULE #3: Every action and decision you make should be motivated to improve lives. 10:39
