That isn't Peterson's message though. His is more of a ...exert control over your own life in a small way - you can't control the world, but you can give yourself a clean room as a first step to taking control of your life and your ability to respond to the world and opportunities (of whatever kind) when they arise. To develop a sense of personal responsibility and competence in the face of sometimes profoundly difficult situations. To not be overwhelmed and find a way to direct your efforts to your own advantage - to do what you can to make your own little part of the world, yourself, your family your friends a better place to be,starting with yourself.
