They're telling very small lies, just like in the Dragon book. You can catch them, because otherwise the system will correct itself.
Jeff Sandefer discusses the identification of 'toxic' kids and references 'the Dragon book,' which may pertain to a specific guide about the symptoms of deceit. This mention suggests a book focused on understanding dishonesty, although it could also be metaphorical.
The imitation of Christ
Buy The imitation of Christ by Dennis Joseph Billy on Amazon
Dive deep into scripture and the second most read Christian book of all time, the imitation of Christ. You'll learn how to become a better individual through prayer, fasting, and giving in spite of today's broken world.
In this segment, Dr. Jordan Peterson promotes Hallow, a Christian prayer app, highlighting 'The Imitation of Christ' as the second most read Christian book of all time. The mention encourages listeners to explore this book alongside scripture to improve their personal growth through practices like prayer, fasting, and giving.
The Pilgrim's Progress
Buy The Pilgrim's Progress by John Bunyan on Amazon
It's Pilgrim's Progress; it's the hero going out looking for the Grail, fighting dragons and monsters, and then you realize when you get to the end it wasn't about the Grail at all.
In this segment, Dr. Jordan Peterson and Jeff Sandefer engage in a discussion about the hero's journey within the framework of designing a school. Sandefer references 'The Pilgrim's Progress' as an illustration of a hero on a quest who ultimately discovers that the true treasure lies not in what was initially sought after, but in the journey itself.
