So in this case, the dragon(problem) grows so big in the child that it shakes the house(family). So essentially, the kid just wanted the problem to be noticed.

@@schmingusss Think about the point where the dragon starts to chase the bread. The dragon (problem) is getting so big from being ignored it is now starting to negatively effect people outside of the house as well. When we choose to ignore our problems instead of facing them, they grow and grow until everything around us, including people start to feel the effects. Edit - Think about a coworker who has a fixable problem they like to complain about. You wouldn't have to hear about it if they just fixed it.
His Harvard years are filled with much more cogent, detailed analysis. His later years are much more ramble-prone. I think Harvard basically milked him of his best years.
Interesting. Can you imagine how the constant protesting, badgering, yelling, and death threats this decent man undergoes must affect him? He cannot get away from it at any waking moment . . .
This one video from 2002 perfectly sums up all his lectures in his career in one hour. From cleaning your room to the Abrahamic adventures to facing the dragon, with no points missing. Absolute perfection.
@@lazaruslong697 maybe. Maybe not. Maybe you are the one who's missing something. I can't say. But humble yourself to the possibility that you might be the one on the wrong side of that debate. I'm not saying that you are. Only that it's dangerous to assume with such confidence that YOU are the one who has it completely figured out.
I completely agree with you. It's like the world is so easy to manage as long as we are told what it is about. We are walking blind! How the hell are we supposed to avoid conflict when no one talks? No one points out what the heck their problem is and just leave it to grow?
I'll take your comment literally and recommend a video called "Jordan Peterson on what made Hitler hate Jews". There is a chance that this shallow, naive and ignorant of very important events insight into Hitler will fail to fascinate you. If it will not... well, you probably get fascinated by anything.
I actually knew a lot of people just like him, he just happen to be the one that in some given time got attacked by the macabre sjw marxist radicals and he actually attacked back, resulting in all this Jordan Peterson phenomena.. There really are millions of guys like him.
That was incredible and the subtle messaging can’t be missed for most adults. The first step to solving a problem is to acknowledge that it exists. Thank you for the presentation!
Michael Wilson Well he has touched my life and the life of many others. all over the world. in the history of man, a very very very very VERY small number of people can say that. That's genius. the majority of humanity will not be remembered past their children. What is genius, the ability to create or the laying off the foundation for a created future? Either way, I wager that 100 years from now your grand children will not remember you. someone will be reading Maps of Meaning though.
SpeakerWiggin49 How is Gordon judgemental of people who break the norms lol... He just curses at people on tv for not cooking well enough/not caring if they should be able to cook better (usually are trained). As for calling Peterson verbally abuse... extreme stretch for a guy you’ve probably never even met. And if you have an actual reason to call him abusive let me know. I’m curious.
Of course he is not a special snowflake and I bet he is also not perfect, but his way of explaining the inside of the human mind is amazing. Especially the mind of a child and how an adult can easily damage that child's mind (at least that's what I got out of that dragon story). Also it's not wrong admiring him, don't you think? He is very good at being a professor, a psychologist and also a father.
''Also it's not wrong admiring him, don't you think?'' It definitely isn't, but fanatically idolizing him may either bring about serious blind spots on your part, or may just as well reveal underlying blinds spots which have led you to generate a distorted perception of the role he oughta fulfill, and which he is able to fulfill in your life, being not the only one of his kind for there exist rather many minds like him, even more proficient, eloquent, or holding certain attributies more advanced than his, while in other ways being less erudite or so. You just gotta know where you look, but it certainly isn't all that bad of a starting point to worship a man of such greatness, certainly not, though beware of projecting longings for a father-figure, for example.
Not really. You could have a father like this and still end up a druggie because all your life people expected you to be like him and you just wanna be a DJ. Or when he goes to work you're left with your mother who's actually depressed being married to a perfect man and takes it out on you. Or or or.... Yes, life is tricky
When I realized what he was talking about I paused the video and I went and talked to my sister and we talked out a bunch of problems we had at home and I understand her so much more now. We live together but we haven’t talked like that in a long time. Thank you
The older folks probably told thier kids about this epic ptofessor and his current students are the kids at college age. Or maybe his students are a type of youth sucking vampire....
Peterson should do a lecture series or TV show for children. With the right cardigan, he could be Mr. Rogers with a hoser accent. I imagine him telling an archetypal fairy tale of the victory of the curious and brave individual over the fun hating collective!

there are three forms of Jordan Petersons. the first is this version, the anecdotal free thinker and explorative Jordan, who is young and eager. There is the Older Jordan who is contemplative, and emotional, and wise and precise. Then there is bearded Jordan who is brilliant badass, consistent, and austere. For every problem in life you need to hear a Jordan, and there is always one for you specialized just for your needs.

This makes me think about the home I grew up in and the home I live in now. Things that were ignored do indeed grow and grow until you cannot ignore them anymore, but by then of course it finds the weakest point and brusts out as anger or some other unhelpful fiery emotion.
I looked this book up on Amazon and apparently so did everyone else too. Most of the reviews mention finding it through Jordan Peterson. The author must surely find it amusing that their childrens story has found a new audience with adults around the world listening to a Candian college professor.
a friend shared this with me a LONG TIME AGO and it was my introduction to Jordan Peterson. Now, whenever someone wants me to watch some video I tell them sure but they gotta watch something for me to... 💞
Haha the tow truck is towing away the bakery truck at the end! Enjoyed that story. It reminds me of another that I read as a kid called "Because a small bug went Ker-choo" (or something of the kind) about how small problems cause incrementally bigger and bigger problems, and eventually lead to chaos. (A bit like the old lady who swallowed a fly, except I guess that's kind of the opposite to a problem that grows because you ignore it.)
Wisdom incarnate, humility that is genuine, more personable than you could imagine, and true to his convictions. It takes an obtuse, bitter, wretch or a deliberately ignorant fool to not see the good in this man. We're blessed.
for long my one of biggest fears was that I could not teach my children really meaningfull things. I now introduced them to Jordan Peterson videos and as a result I feel worthwhile as a father
Arsene Lupin try not to outsource your ability to teach you will learn a lot from your kids by teaching. Sit down take the time to absorb Petersons messages and wisdom and try and share it with your kids to the best of your ability! It will have so much more meaning to hear it from you and seeing you practice this timeless wisdom.
Personally, for me at 24 it doesn't matter so much to me if my dad would teach me how to live meaningfully, I've had to learn that the hard way. What would matter most to me is that if he lived more meaningfully. Nevertheless, life goes on!
Wow... almost brought me to tears. There's nothing defining about life than this, in my opinion. I quote here from Adventure Time, "Don't let the dragon drag on". Being to slowly and steadily notice it... look within ourselves with our surroundings. Slay the dragon if you have to. Negotiate, befriend and ally with the dragon if you have to. Embrace and celebrate the dragon if you have to. Just don't let it do only one thing: unconsciously kill us all.
I came to see how young he was, but stayed for the whole lesson. It was like watching a movie with popcorn that you’re so heavily invested in. Wow, what a great lesson and a great man to have taught it. I’m glad I bought his book. Stay strong, you amazing Lobster!
You'd think that after watching this you could just stand up, sigh and realize what you've been doing wrong, to then go about and fix it, but that is extremely difficult to do when the problem surrounds your entire family and not one time are you all in agreement, which is what is needed to take care of the dragon.
10:38 is chilling. The thought of coming home one day and having all that I’d worked for throughout my entire life gone in an instant. My house, my assets, my family just gone. And worst of all; it’s entirely my fault. Because if it isn’t my fault, I can curse God and die (figuratively speaking), but to have it be the result of my own day-to-day neglectfulness both knowingly and then eventually unknowingly as my guilt gets swept under the rug by the toils of the day. Only to have it come back full force out of nowhere is more than I (or most people) could bear.
Modern divorce does it to guys every day. "You're a man, you can rebuild". Tell that to the guy I knew ehose wife divorced him because she was just bored of marriage. He was 3 years off retirement. Without even LOOKING at the paperwork a male judge said "I believe all assets have been divided equally" when they obviously hadn't. He got out of their with a caravan/camper trailer and a crap van ready for the scrap heap.
It's a childrens story with a very strong message. If you choose to neglect your problems those problems will start to get the best of you and it will not go away until you address it or face it head on.
Going through this comment section is a little unnerving. Why is everyone trying to attribute his battles against SJW's of today, to a lecture which occurred in 2002 in regards to parenting. This lesson implied that parents should not ignore what their kids are telling them (its childhood psychology), yet everyone attempts to convert this lesson into one which applies to the political sphere. Signed, An anti-sjw Libertarian.
Robert Naylor It does apply. SJW’s today ate the result of them and their parent having Peter Pan syndrome. They’ll never grow up. I was an SJW, but when I had kids, I couldn’t raise them like a child would raise them. I gave up on politics altogether now. I can’t be with social justice warriors or go into the warrior’s justice social. Both side of the isle are the same thing, just backwards.
Everyone who watches this liked it and feels empowered to start hating on the sjw’s because a greater mind than theirs validated their beliefs. Like a kid relying on their dad or something like that. But people will always refer to what’s going on in their time as-well since JP has become more popular with my generation and younger.
Because everything you hate you become. Anti sjw are just as annoying as sjw. Constantly seeing problems that their hated enemy see and pointing it out to normal people who think both types are clowns.
This video has been a massive help to me. It’s amazing when human experience is put to story how it becomes much more applicable in life. In the last two days I addressed a couple small dragons, and today I took on 3 fairly ominous ones. They do get smaller as soon as you look at them. Also I’ve found myself less frustrated by my more painful emotions. I’ve sort of accepted them as a part of life that can be limited in their destructive tendency if I simply pay attention to the matters causing the pain. Got a few more scary dragons to look at soon.
I'm not sure it is because of the content of his lecture, but he sounded more cheerful when he was younger. Nowadays he seems more serious and kind of grim. I think dealing with people with mental disorders and studying various maleficent personalities mast have affected him a lot.
We all get beaten down by life as we get older... I was happier when I was younger, too. Although, there are some folks I've noticed, are mean when young, and they mellow out with age.
My wife and I have been together for 20 years. In that time all.of our friends have split or divorced. One of the reasons we believe we have stayed the course (aside trust etc) is because we are always upfront an honest about everything, even if it's a difficult or even painful subject. Nothing is ignored for long, if at all.
Priorities also help! My parents are still together as well after 35+ years. All my dad's other siblings aren't. Yet, over the years they and even his parents always criticized how he lived his life. Education, financial, lifestyle, etc. And, even during those years, they would call him for advice, only to try their own method again and again. Watching it over the course of 35+ years has been very eye opening.
"Why did (the dragon) have to grow so big?"
"I'm not sure. I think it just wanted to be noticed."
Ouch man, cuts like a knife.

Young Jordan Peterson's class is full of old people. Older Jordan Peterson's classes are full of young people.

Probably isn't a class, is probably a workshop.
That's because young peterson's classes were actualy academically interesting, whereas older peterson's classes are just a vomit of cold war bullshit
Probably because the old ones are dead
That book is incredibly intelligent. It is written for the entertainment of children, but the real message is for the parent reading it.

Jordan Peterson: Sometimes I sit with friends of mine who are very young children
I looked this book up on Amazon and apparently so did everyone else too. Most of the reviews mention finding it through Jordan Peterson. The author must surely find it amusing that their childrens story has found a new audience with adults around the world listening to a Candian college professor.
Wow.. never seen a video this old of Professor Peterson..
I hope he gets back on his feet soon. The world needs him.
He actually got more handsome as he aged.
I'm a straight male guy and I'm still liking this comment
He's truly like a fine wine
He had too big hear.
JC his comment is in no way sexual, so that’s irrelevant.
Actually, it's just his haircut and outfit that has changed.
JP: "I don't mind dragons this size, said mother."
Everyone: *laughs*
Me: ooooooh, so i wasn't the only one who've thought of that.
Marvel Studios de-aging technology is amazing.
I remember this from childhood, it’s interesting to think about a deeper meaning
not recognising a problem, and saying there isn't one and that everything is fine whilst it grows until the eventuality that it becomes unfixable
Andy Faull agreed
a friend shared this with me a LONG TIME AGO and it was my introduction to Jordan Peterson. Now, whenever someone wants me to watch some video I tell them sure but they gotta watch something for me to... 💞
I'm a simple man. I see young JP, I click.
Lol yup
Yup
"Do Not Allow Your Children to Do Anything That Makes You Dislike Them" -JBP, many years later.
Haha the tow truck is towing away the bakery truck at the end!
Enjoyed that story. It reminds me of another that I read as a kid called "Because a small bug went Ker-choo" (or something of the kind) about how small problems cause incrementally bigger and bigger problems, and eventually lead to chaos. (A bit like the old lady who swallowed a fly, except I guess that's kind of the opposite to a problem that grows because you ignore it.)
Watching this for the third time. Last time was more than a year ago. There's just that much value in these clips.
Haha it's like a 90s program, still a timeless genius
"So I cooked a whole bunch of pancakes and made him watch as I ate them."
Whoa...Dr. Peterson used to be young?!
Wisdom incarnate, humility that is genuine, more personable than you could imagine, and true to his convictions.
It takes an obtuse, bitter, wretch or a deliberately ignorant fool to not see the good in this man. We're blessed.
Listening to Mr. Peterson makes me miss my father.
almost made my cry again! thank you! It is my favorite piece of J.B.P ! ! !
for long my one of biggest fears was that I could not teach my children really meaningfull things. I now introduced them to Jordan Peterson videos and as a result I feel worthwhile as a father
Arsene Lupin try not to outsource your ability to teach you will learn a lot from your kids by teaching. Sit down take the time to absorb Petersons messages and wisdom and try and share it with your kids to the best of your ability!
It will have so much more meaning to hear it from you and seeing you practice this timeless wisdom.
Personally, for me at 24 it doesn't matter so much to me if my dad would teach me how to live meaningfully, I've had to learn that the hard way. What would matter most to me is that if he lived more meaningfully. Nevertheless, life goes on!
You should talk about your experiences and what you take about them!
Wow man that hit hard at the end. Such a genius way of combining a genuine funny story with a very strong, helpful message
Wow... almost brought me to tears. There's nothing defining about life than this, in my opinion. I quote here from Adventure Time, "Don't let the dragon drag on". Being to slowly and steadily notice it... look within ourselves with our surroundings. Slay the dragon if you have to. Negotiate, befriend and ally with the dragon if you have to. Embrace and celebrate the dragon if you have to. Just don't let it do only one thing: unconsciously kill us all.
I came to see how young he was, but stayed for the whole lesson. It was like watching a movie with popcorn that you’re so heavily invested in. Wow, what a great lesson and a great man to have taught it. I’m glad I bought his book. Stay strong, you amazing Lobster!
You'd think that after watching this you could just stand up, sigh and realize what you've been doing wrong, to then go about and fix it, but that is extremely difficult to do when the problem surrounds your entire family and not one time are you all in agreement, which is what is needed to take care of the dragon.
7:31 i remember this from the chapter of dont make your kids do what makes you hate them or something of that name.
10:38 is chilling. The thought of coming home one day and having all that I’d worked for throughout my entire life gone in an instant. My house, my assets, my family just gone. And worst of all; it’s entirely my fault. Because if it isn’t my fault, I can curse God and die (figuratively speaking), but to have it be the result of my own day-to-day neglectfulness both knowingly and then eventually unknowingly as my guilt gets swept under the rug by the toils of the day. Only to have it come back full force out of nowhere is more than I (or most people) could bear.
Modern divorce does it to guys every day. "You're a man, you can rebuild". Tell that to the guy I knew ehose wife divorced him because she was just bored of marriage. He was 3 years off retirement. Without even LOOKING at the paperwork a male judge said "I believe all assets have been divided equally" when they obviously hadn't. He got out of their with a caravan/camper trailer and a crap van ready for the scrap heap.
Why did the dragon grow so big? I don't know. I think it just wanted to be noticed. Wow.
I wanted to clean my room now i am watching this incredibly intelligent child story.....
Another great video of Jordan Peterson on psychology, and I love it was cut right after the punchline in the end.
It's a childrens story with a very strong message. If you choose to neglect your problems those problems will start to get the best of you and it will not go away until you address it or face it head on.
I want Jordan Peterson to record audio books
Anyone else putting off homework to watch this?
fisticuf I never let school get in the way of my education
Dr. Peterson would probably tell you to do your homework and look after your responsibilities first and foremost to the best of your ability.
fisticuf Guilty as charged !!! But in my case I have 4 midterms today LOL
More like putting off going to bed

You deserve an award for this comment. Brava brava 👏👏👏
I saw this when is came out on TVO probably about 10+ years ago. I bought the book from Amazon, for my kids, in 2007.
This reminds me of a family I know. They have so many problems but don’t face any of them and then they wonder why their lives are in shambles
Tragic.
I loved this - seems to end abruptly though. Thanks for linking the source, I'll go get the rest of it there!
Going through this comment section is a little unnerving. Why is everyone trying to attribute his battles against SJW's of today, to a lecture which occurred in 2002 in regards to parenting. This lesson implied that parents should not ignore what their kids are telling them (its childhood psychology), yet everyone attempts to convert this lesson into one which applies to the political sphere.
Signed,
An anti-sjw Libertarian.
Robert Naylor It does apply. SJW’s today ate the result of them and their parent having Peter Pan syndrome. They’ll never grow up. I was an SJW, but when I had kids, I couldn’t raise them like a child would raise them. I gave up on politics altogether now. I can’t be with social justice warriors or go into the warrior’s justice social. Both side of the isle are the same thing, just backwards.
Everyone who watches this liked it and feels empowered to start hating on the sjw’s because a greater mind than theirs validated their beliefs. Like a kid relying on their dad or something like that. But people will always refer to what’s going on in their time as-well since JP has become more popular with my generation and younger.
Because everything you hate you become. Anti sjw are just as annoying as sjw. Constantly seeing problems that their hated enemy see and pointing it out to normal people who think both types are clowns.
It's incredible how MUCH more charismatic JBP is at his age than when he was 30 or even 40.
remember acetate paper for over head projectors??
good times.. i always loved when the teacher would write up there.
This was my favourite book when I was a kid and I had completely forgotten about it!
Billie: "Mom. I'm can prove there's a dragon...DRACARYS!!" lol
This explains my entire life. I'm sending this to my mom
This was back when his name was still
Peter Jordanson.
Jordan's looking very Canadian here, and I mean that as a compliment!
I love how he talks the same then as he does now
This video has been a massive help to me. It’s amazing when human experience is put to story how it becomes much more applicable in life. In the last two days I addressed a couple small dragons, and today I took on 3 fairly ominous ones. They do get smaller as soon as you look at them.
Also I’ve found myself less frustrated by my more painful emotions. I’ve sort of accepted them as a part of life that can be limited in their destructive tendency if I simply pay attention to the matters causing the pain.
Got a few more scary dragons to look at soon.
SEINFELD
This is nothing short of brilliant. I love this.
He looks like Danny Tanner from Full House here.
LMFAO
That's true!!!
And Tom Hanks in the 90's.
Love this guy. I think I watched every bit of content on him on the internet. I will ever go back to uni to watch his lectures.
I’m a grown man listening to Jordan Peterson tell me a children’s story lol
I love his analysis of children’s books!
A lot other people miss until they sit into a lecture like this!
Legend has it that Jordan Peterson is alive from the beginning of time and HE is the dragon.
I just realized that young Jordan Peterson and Kevin McDonald bear a resemblance
I'm not sure it is because of the content of his lecture, but he sounded more cheerful when he was younger. Nowadays he seems more serious and kind of grim. I think dealing with people with mental disorders and studying various maleficent personalities mast have affected him a lot.
Boris Nikolic he has his cheerful moments even today, yeah we become more serious with age but we also (are supposed to) get more competent
Boris Nikolic . He'd gone through some rather rough times with his daughter's health. That's probably one of the reasons.
I got the opposite impression. He seems angry and accusing in this video. He seems caring and hopeful when he's older.
We all get beaten down by life as we get older... I was happier when I was younger, too. Although, there are some folks I've noticed, are mean when young, and they mellow out with age.
He looks like a more educated version of a younger Seinfeld here.
This guy was f***ing brilliant even in his younger years.
Excellent analogy .
Why does Jerry Seinfeld know so much about philosophy?
Lool the irony, when he was young he taught old people, but now that he's old he's teaching young college students. :)
CLEAN YOUR ROOM
My wife and I have been together for 20 years. In that time all.of our friends have split or divorced. One of the reasons we believe we have stayed the course (aside trust etc) is because we are always upfront an honest about everything, even if it's a difficult or even painful subject. Nothing is ignored for long, if at all.
Priorities also help! My parents are still together as well after 35+ years. All my dad's other siblings aren't. Yet, over the years they and even his parents always criticized how he lived his life. Education, financial, lifestyle, etc. And, even during those years, they would call him for advice, only to try their own method again and again. Watching it over the course of 35+ years has been very eye opening.
