I am a 73 year old combat vet. I thought I was pretty attuned to life. JP takes me where the real answer can be had. I wish he was my father when I was a child.
@faultroy I'm about half of your age - but I'm about to tell you on behalf of this RUclips channel, Shut The Hell UP!!! "Whatever's wrong with you, is no little thing." -Yul Brennar
faultroy Jordans wife has cancer and he lost a daughter also I believe .I find him to be intelligent, articulate and a pure gentleman ,something rare these days and he has the guts to take on these bloody loony left wingers and social justice warriors. The world would be a far better place with more like him .
@Rick Lane What a cruel comment. This man is human too, he is fallible like us all. That doesn't mean that he loses the right to impart the knowledge he has gained over his long career as a clinical psychologist. I believe his wife of many years has been very sick over the last year and JBP was finding this very stressful. It would be kinder to wish him a speedy recovery as we all have so much to gain from this impressive man.
Most heroes are haunted by the very thing they're trying to save people from. They find their purpose in curing other peoples suffering that aligns with their own. You can only truly help people if you go through the same suffering you're trying to save them from. For example, Kid Cudi's music is about overcoming demons and battling the dark version of yourself...and it just so happens he battles the same depression his fans go through. He went to rehab, struggled with suicide and addiction and his music is only effective because he goes through the same battles his songs help people overcome. It's called walking the walk...Same as JP.
He holds you accountable for your own life but offers solutions to the hell people find themselves in at times. It is contrary to the SJW’s and new psycho left Feminist Marxism doctrine of zero responsibility and everyone else is to blame for where you are. Truth is a bitter pill to these people and there are millions of them. Hate is easier than introspection and the admittance of being wrong I guess.
Marcus Jovanovich many people are rabidly allergic to the truth. He speaks golden truth and it’s manna from Heaven for those looking for it. But its greatly offensive to others.
Fools hate wisdom ... And wisdom oozes from JP . We are fortunate to have him and must pay attention and listen and think . Become better every day . Make it part of your plan.
@Sailor of the Mind you're obviously too stupid understand what he's saying. You feel the need to tear people down to build yourself up. You can build yourself up without tearing other people down.
faultroy - I am happy to point out your exaggeration, for example when you say it is ‘mandatory in all schools’ this is hyperbole, as you say ‘all’ curriculum, as though their is no school without this as part of the curriculum, this you state as fact and I doubt it’s authenticity. Also, in the latter end of your difficult to follow rant you say JP has always played it safe and not taken a risk. When you use words like always, that are said in full measure without exception this is hyperbole and is used to manipulate arguments by being emotive. Further, I doubt you have much knowledge of JP’s actual circumstances and are being a cheap online troll. Last of all, I have not lowered my argument to name calling like you, which is a sure sign that you have introduced emotion into your argument, quite contradictory considering the terminology you use as slander. Are you a hypocrite?
faultroy - I didn’t bother reading your entire comment, please forgive me. I question your authenticity in your initial claims of Peterson, you portray yourself as though you know more than most about him, like his lack of risk taking in life. I question how you know that, I mean really know. I very much doubt you know anymore than anyone else on the internet. That’s what my initial comment referred to. Im finished entertaining you, so save yourself the time and don’t reply.
@faultroy You made the assertions... Prove it, or GTFO. The fact is that many universities don't allow Peterson's videos to be shown. Almost all universities are run by Leftists administrators and faculty. They hate Peterson as much as you do. Your assertion is completely wrong. There have even been cases where Peterson's videos were show at universities, where the students were threatened, intimidated, or punished for using the videos in class projects by the schools administrators and faculty! It wasn't being taught by the universities, but by the students. The universities won't allow Peterson's ideas to be presented. The only University that allows his ideas, is the one he teaches at.
Stone Fist I would say it depends. Neurologically speaking, enthusiasm, passion and excitement (as new studies are proofing again and again) are fertilizers for growth and new connections are formed continuously under the right conditions. But due to various reasons, most people today did not grow up that way. Adversity has always been part of human life and those who have to face it before they developed the tools to deal with it, will be formed and shaped by it.
@@Ninitschga very interesting. I consider myself formed and shake by adversity to a good extend. I had to work harder than the rest in school and such.
Albert Gracious I know we usually value the things we „learned“ the hard way more for a couple of reasons: a) overcoming adversity is and always has been critical for human survival - so negative memories and the linked fears do serve an important purpose, similar to an alarm system b) the more effort we put into something / the more pain we endure to reach a certain goal, the more likely we are to justify our investment later on, because it would cause too much mental dissonance to admit that it was unnecessary suffering c) we actually hardly ever learn any new skills in the face of adversity, we only come up with new ways to use the things we already learned - but of course the effect they have is much more profound in those scenarios
I actually agree. Real scary excruciating growth comes out of sheer necessity. Nobody jumps all in in the mouth of a dragon. They do out of necessity: when there is absolutely no other choice.
Many will reach a level of pain that forces them to awaken and go exactly where they didn’t want to. That IS healing. Shining a light on those dark places within will eventually bring peace. ❤️
"What you most want to find, will be found where you least want to look." Man, I was with my headphones and I had to pause the video and take off my headphones, it was like receiving a bullet those words. Is incredible how deep and clear he can speak
I've been listening to him almost everyday since February. What's so strange is, He was it appeared always referring to these moments we've experienced as global family. This situation and Jordan helped me saved myself.
Dr. Peterson God bless you! You have helped me so much. I just want you to know that so many people love you. I know the media wears you down. Thank you for fighting for moral common sense.
"The seas will become stormy for you and pull you down" Damn. That is my life right now. Work is more stressful and soul-sucking in the last 3 months than it ever has been, and every day it just gets worse. I know my pathway is music. So many people have told me my songs are beautiful. That there is something magical about them. But my introversion, fear, and stage fright keep me running away from it. Time for me to tie my tail to a rock, jump into the ocean, and face this monster head on.
Sending you my utmost support!Keep the faith and dare to venture out into the unknown as it is potentially much more rewarding than the comfort zone you find surrounding you every single day. Your comment is an inspiration to me and other individuals. More power to your elbow!
Anger can help you with this. Anger can get you to go into a place you are afraid of going. Get angry now and use it to armour you while attacking your fear. Feelings of regrets later in life about this will pull you down to that dark place you fear without hope of redemption. Get angry my friend and sing your heart out..
This is probably one of my favorite of Jordan Peterson. It is only been in the times where I am extremely uncomfortable and on the verge of a breakdown that true growth happened. Shadow work is not easy but it's worth it. More especially if you have trauma. The only thing I would add to this is before Shadow work make sure you have an inner dialogue that is kind to yourself, because you most certainly will need it!
Since I born until now I'm never seen person with this knowledge and wisdom just like to this generation father Dr. Jordan Peterson. His speech is Gold , how I can thank God about his Gift . Yeah i mean Dr. Jordan Peterson he is Gift from God to us . God bless him and his family . Every time i listen to him i feel happier . Thanks for sharing this Gold and so useful Brother . ❤🙏
@DJ NV I just know Jordan Peterson is a fishy guy, Time will tell when his true colours come out.. He can see the benefit of religion but not God or Jesus of the Bible? 100% he will lead people in the wrong path...
@P C I understand how people like Jordan use it to benefit himself, You just one of his brainless sheep who can't think by yourself... You need him not me...
@Psychonaut It's the system. I'm convinced it has nothing to do with real life. Real life is not the problem. It's all this fake bs pumped through the system day anf night...fake news, fake food, fake narratives, a Satanic sabotage on our worldview and attempt to darken the covenant we have with God. That's the most dangerous thing, and it's everywhere!!! You covenant with the Holy Spirit is the most important, beautiful thing and we need to keep it.
Can't even describe how greatful iam stumbling upon one of this legend's videos in early 2019 , and how much my life has changed , im not gonna say that i encountered the dragon and got the pot of gold , im basically at the cave's entering , instead of preferring the coziness and comfort of pretending my problems dont exist .
Out of all motivations and self help strategies from speakers, Jordan is on another level. Helps u search inside of u to find what's holding you back and helps you move forward..amazing content 💯👍!
Every moment in Dr. Peterson's presence, my intelligence improves. Every moment listening to the mindless twittering of the masses, There is diminishment.
I feel similarly. I also recommend Rudolf Steiner. Though he is more difficult to understand at first, the reward is well worth it. www.rsarchive.org/Books/Download/Philosophy_of_Freedom-Rudolf_Steiner-4.pdf
I am grateful that I can watch and rewatch the wisdom this man has to give - lost my dad when I graduated and this has been as close as I can get to getting solid advice that is meant to improve you as a human instead of simply destroying them
Everytime I ran out of self to love, out of self to pursue,I found my Bible, digging into prayer,confronting my weaknesses, and entering my deepest fears,seeing life's agony recede when a broken me wipes his tears off and confronts unwaveringly the ivory towers of human thought and human limitation . .a broken heart and contrite and teachable spirit as David states in Psalms 51... Courage comes risen from brokenness
We all need to go through challenges and difficult times to grow, getting out of the comfort zone to face our fears and grow. Know that everything will be ok, that everything is working out in your favour and there's always light outside the tunnel. Carry on and don't give up :) you can do this !
Well put, and I agree whole heartedly. Growth, change, strength,honesty are always on the other side of the river. The river being a raging flow of dispair, hatred, suffering, fear, anxiety, pain. But its this river we all must cross to obtain what is needed. Nothing comes easy or free if it has value. There is always beauty in suffering and struggle knowing there is a treasure on the other side. This video reminds me of a quote by Joseph Campbell who did fascinating work in comparative mythology and a studier of Carl Jung, like Jordan Peterson, he said "The cave you fear to enter, holds the treasure you seek."
Eating cheetos in my parents basement sounds safer. I think I'll just drink red bull and play video games down here. Good luck fighting dragons yall, cause I ain't doing that shit.
Dragon is always east..unless you speak about how western world demands the eastern dragon to be delivered ,then west will give the promised gold.. Just kidding
Vesna Djordjevic Dragons are not exclusive to the east, in fact the mythology of western dragons goes back to the middle east where civilization started.
I’m a 58 year old man. I have grandchildren now that I’m sharing my wisdom with in my life experiences. After listening to Jordan Peterson, I feel like I should go back and change some of the stuff I have shared with my grandkids and my kids! Great source for knowledge!
The thing is, I don't need these lessons from him. I already know these things. But I was completely undone in life and was reduced to the lowest version of myself. I lost hope for myself and fell into a pretty dark place. But Im glad I discovered him. I'm glad I found his videos and I feel blessed to be so moved by his passion for the lost and downtrodden souls of this world. Ironically, I know one person who does listen to him and reflects on his words. That person has taught me to try more and to get involved and to start pursuing my passions again.
These archetypes of life lessons are always being brought out in the words of the wise. Throughout antiquity, great and intellectual men and woman have said these "cliche" things. But yet each time we humans hear them they resonate, and deeply I add. They seem so archaic and simple, yet they epitomize truth and reality and personal growth. As we evolved, these "truths", in story, change. Yet as the story changes, as time changes and our environment changes, the underlying message remains the same. Isnt it an absolute truth when we, as humans have been saying something so profound for thousands and thousands of years?
Look where you least want to but don't expect to find the "Golden Goose" every time!!! Life will still demand more of you than what your prepared to give...
I cannot promote this speaker any more than absolutely. He may not have everything figured out but he sure does have a lot. This is the kind of man that I want to be.
Mysticism vs reality is the crux of too many concocted personal problems. Biology is humbling and has a way of reminding me how precious life is or can be via my random birth into existence and external influences.
I think this advice - unfortunately and luckily at the same time - is especially true for those of us who are damaged. Those from dysfunctional families, those who knew what a war zone looks like before they could even mumble the word, those who lost their shelter and family when they were just kids. If you try and run from those things - you‘ll be running all your life. But the moment you stop and face the dark that’s lurking within you - you will start to defeat it and keep it under control.
P C I am not sure I get your point, but of course you can recover from anything. Weather it’s abuse, war or other catastrophic events. I never saw myself as a victim, but as a survivor. Life goes on and the world waits for nobody.
@@Ninitschga Then you are rare in my experience. Many people live out these past experiences as & with a victim mentality. They refuse to see it, face it, or change it. They allow it to destroy themselves & all in their path. Congratulations on your growth. That takes courage, faith & character. 🤗
I listen to this man everyday for at least one hour throughout my day. I have learned so much from him. He is a GODSEND! People who don't like him, can not handle the Truth!
I used this when I was a stock trader....Look where no one is looking. When everyone says no, that's where I want to be. I made a fortune trading like this.
This exact video saved my life from suicide. Suicide is not a one time thing, it spans across time, it's weeks, months, years. This video helped me battle the part of my brain telling me to jump everyday. You are awesome because of that, never stop touching people. You have a gift for it. 3 years later I come across this video as a different person. Now the wall that had the powerful phrase is painted white with no trace of such words. But still, in my mind, I can gaze those words and appreciate them, Jordan, and you, for that marker written short lyric made me stay afloat enough so I could wait for the next boat.
The knights not knowing where to go to find what is essentially the pinnacle of life. They don't even know what it is!! And neither do we!! And their first step is to venture off into the darkest part of the forest to find it..... so simple but so inspirational.
"you don't get gold without the dragon." Well, some people does. But as the gold comes without challenge, such people lack the wisdom as the prize of the challenge and they become the next dragon.
Dear Prof. JP, thank you very much for your effort, capacity, dedication and acquired knowledge. Which is so well shared or delivered. You deserve all our recognition, attention and love. Ps. Don't forget to sleep once in a while and take care. Hug from Portugal
I feel as though I'm in the belly of the beast right now. Still! I have looked hard at myself. I have worked on me for the last several year's. I rid myself of false friends & toxic family. I went through a terrible, year-long depression. I'm still working on me, but I'm still stuck in a town I don't want to be in any longer. Everytime I save for a move, something breaks, & repairs take a big bite from my savings. I keep at it, but there is no end in sight. I have been through the "darkest part of (my) forest". But there is no change. The "old way" didn't work, so I no longer bother using it. But the "new way" doesn't seem to work either. I feel like a rat in a maze, & the damned "scientists" keep moving the panel's around.
You didn’t get where you are overnight, so it’s not going to change overnight (several years) either. Just stick with it and continue to do what is right and good and honest, and you will ultimately reap rewards. Maybe God is testing you on how serious you are about changing.
MissKsMom ; I'm 52. I have always looked hard at myself. That's easy to do when Toxic kin have always blamed their flaws on me. Blamed me for everything! I have endured decades of abuse. Not all of it from "family". Other's see how my kin treat me, & treat me the same way. They have permission, after all. I have studied the Bible all my life. I know it well. I know myself better. Likewise, I have spent year's studying human behavior. More & more, an old adage is proven.... "People ain't no damn good". I have learned this lesson the hard way! But I do NOT know the mind of God. Nor do you. For you to make such an assumption shows only foolish pride on your part. You, like them, put the blame on me. Pure Hubris. I look for answer's everyday. From every source. Many want to appear wise, & offer mantras, quotes, & passages.... But nothing, NOTHING! I haven't already read. You do NOT have the answer's. No one does. My Grandmother use to say, "Those whom God loves, he test's." Well, God must ADORE me. In spite of all I have suffered, & all the Betrayals, I still pray daily. But I am NOT Job. My hope IS fading. (Proverbs 13; 12) These test's cannot go on a lifetime. At some point, they have to end. I have forgotten the exact line, but there is another passage from Proverbs that asks, "...but a wounded Spirit, who can bear?" My wounds are deep and old. Yet new wound's come almost daily. Something has to change.
I’m so sorry my comments were hurtful. Maybe getting away from your family and getting a job you like to keep you from thinking so much might help. I only wish you the best.
@@smc1942 You called your kin toxic? Maybe you're the problem, but of course I don't know. And going through a hard time for years on end like you are isn't a sign of God testing you, keep him out of it. You're in control of your own actions. It's just that what you're doing isn't working. You have to clearly identify the problem, come up with a solution, and put systems in place to prevent it from coming back. I mean, you can't just sit there and blindly wait for an opportunity, you got to go for it. Come up with a plan that includes a timeline, the terms of success and terms of failure, and just go after it! Plan AROUND the problems.
I'm not sure how I came across one of your videos yesterday but, they have been so conducive to me! I was at a point of needing new motivation insight, and there you are! I've listened to this video today (sunday) over 20 times! No doubt God guided me to your videos! Thank you so much!
Totally giving me insight I have never thought about and sorely needed. I would have loved to have had him as a professor for philosophy in college. Those kids don't realize how lucky they are! Maybe they do? So passionate and just a natural at translating the theories, thoughts and really enjoy his updated interpretations of such.. Thank you!
Jordan Peterson is an incredibly well-read, clinically experienced, observer and thinker. I'm so grateful he's willing to expend all the effort he does to help us learn how to pursue our best selves. Many thanks, Jordan!
"That which we need the most will be found where we least want to look."
Ooof. Gut Punch. 🤜🏻
What is that even mean? It is just silly to put it politely.
It’s “ what you most want to find will be found where you least wanna look” tho proud of you putting it in your own words 👏🏼💯
NO GOLD = NO QUEEN. Cold hard truth. Nobody comming to save me or help me. Nobody giving my success to me. Either I get it on my own or die.
You'll never find it in panties......not there...I looked EVERYWHERE!
Serious stop laughing....
The light is in the shadow......you can leave the lights off I know my way around in the dark!:)

What does that tell you about his detractors? There is much confusion and evil in the world.

This man is amazing! His lectures have helped me reform and refocus my life.
@Psychonaut It's the system. I'm convinced it has nothing to do with real life. Real life is not the problem. It's all this fake bs pumped through the system day anf night...fake news, fake food, fake narratives, a Satanic sabotage on our worldview and attempt to darken the covenant we have with God.
That's the most dangerous thing, and it's everywhere!!! You covenant with the Holy Spirit is the most important, beautiful thing and we need to keep it.
Can't even describe how greatful iam stumbling upon one of this legend's videos in early 2019 , and how much my life has changed , im not gonna say that i encountered the dragon and got the pot of gold , im basically at the cave's entering , instead of preferring the coziness and comfort of pretending my problems dont exist .
Out of all motivations and self help strategies from speakers, Jordan is on another level. Helps u search inside of u to find what's holding you back and helps you move forward..amazing content 💯👍!
He’s a legend, in my eyes. 😢
*Summary:*
“You gotta risk it to get the biscuit.”
Flappy Dunker exactly what I was going to say 😂
"Fortune favours the brave" . . . "to the victor belong the spoils "
What I want to know is, will there be gravy with that biscuit? :)
Thankyou
😂
I could listen to this man all day
One of the most meaningful videos I've ever watched on RUclips
I can't imagine what I could have done if I had this man in my life growing up
Every moment in Dr. Peterson's presence, my intelligence improves.
Every moment listening to the mindless twittering of the masses,
There is diminishment.
Great comment
I feel similarly. I also recommend Rudolf Steiner. Though he is more difficult to understand at first, the reward is well worth it.

You may also enjoy CS Lewis' writings, for some reason Peterson has a similar feeling, at least to me.
@faultroy Enlighten us, oh dipshitted one!
@faultroy Looks like I didn't ask a question, but write another essay for me, please.
I'll do it. I'll go where it's dark.
One of the great thinkers of our time.
This man changes lives for the better. Damn.
He speaks simple truth with profound depth... thank you for sharing
“The best things in life are on the other side of fear”
I am grateful that I can watch and rewatch the wisdom this man has to give - lost my dad when I graduated and this has been as close as I can get to getting solid advice that is meant to improve you as a human instead of simply destroying them
This man has changed my life
coming back here at least once per year. this story is an art itself. brilliantly spoken, perfect tone, most inspiring guy to tell it
Man... I swear evertime i need something in life these snippets pop up and same as his book. We are so lucky to have him in our time of life
Everytime I ran out of self to love, out of self to pursue,I found my Bible, digging into prayer,confronting my weaknesses, and entering my deepest fears,seeing life's agony recede when a broken me wipes his tears off and confronts unwaveringly the ivory towers of human thought and human limitation .
.a broken heart and contrite and teachable spirit as David states in Psalms 51... Courage comes risen from brokenness
Alphons De Wit facts
The great teacher.
This guy is a gift
We all need to go through challenges and difficult times to grow, getting out of the comfort zone to face our fears and grow. Know that everything will be ok, that everything is working out in your favour and there's always light outside the tunnel. Carry on and don't give up :) you can do this !
Well put, and I agree whole heartedly. Growth, change, strength,honesty are always on the other side of the river. The river being a raging flow of dispair, hatred, suffering, fear, anxiety, pain. But its this river we all must cross to obtain what is needed. Nothing comes easy or free if it has value. There is always beauty in suffering and struggle knowing there is a treasure on the other side. This video reminds me of a quote by Joseph Campbell who did fascinating work in comparative mythology and a studier of Carl Jung, like Jordan Peterson, he said "The cave you fear to enter, holds the treasure you seek."
Eating cheetos in my parents basement sounds safer. I think I'll just drink red bull and play video games down here. Good luck fighting dragons yall, cause I ain't doing that shit.
@P C lol, maybe If I lurk around the internet telling random people they are dishonorable, I'll have my honor like you have. Cool.
20seconds into the video and there is something deep already.
prince Kazhila you’re quite handsome
@@HausOfAdonis got me blushing here lol. Cheers
Jordan Peterson. Am so happy I found you at this stage of my life
Needed to hear this on so many levels.
Can we agree that this men deserves a Nobel peace prize?
Wow! This was amazing and really made me think.I have to battle through what I fear and not run from it!
I'm lost for words, this Man is so inspirational
East: No Mud, No Lotus.
West: No Dragon, No Gold.
South : No money no Beer
Dragon is always east..unless you speak about how western world demands the eastern dragon to be delivered ,then west will give the promised gold.. Just kidding
Vesna Djordjevic Dragons are not exclusive to the east, in fact the mythology of western dragons goes back to the middle east where civilization started.
Vesna Djordjevic relax
No Bat Eating, No Kung Flu
Jordan Peterson is a gift to humanity plain and simple.
I really appreciate this wonderful cinematic effect as well as the color correction which made this video substantially engaging. Bravo... Keep it up.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed :)
I’m a 58 year old man. I have grandchildren now that I’m sharing my wisdom with in my life experiences. After listening to Jordan Peterson, I feel like I should go back and change some of the stuff I have shared with my grandkids and my kids! Great source for knowledge!
Once again, great advice. Thank you Dr Peterson
Most professors are brilliant, few are next level- he is next level, he gives priceless information.
Thank you, dr Peterson.
Dr. Peterson we love you! Thank You for being a role model and for your sage advice!
I really needed to hear this
The thing is, I don't need these lessons from him. I already know these things. But I was completely undone in life and was reduced to the lowest version of myself. I lost hope for myself and fell into a pretty dark place. But Im glad I discovered him. I'm glad I found his videos and I feel blessed to be so moved by his passion for the lost and downtrodden souls of this world. Ironically, I know one person who does listen to him and reflects on his words. That person has taught me to try more and to get involved and to start pursuing my passions again.
It was a priceless life lesson. Thank you Jordan Peterson, I owe you so much.
I never tire of listening to JBP's wisdom. A blessing to all with open hearts and minds.
These archetypes of life lessons are always being brought out in the words of the wise. Throughout antiquity, great and intellectual men and woman have said these "cliche" things. But yet each time we humans hear them they resonate, and deeply I add. They seem so archaic and simple, yet they epitomize truth and reality and personal growth. As we evolved, these "truths", in story, change. Yet as the story changes, as time changes and our environment changes, the underlying message remains the same. Isnt it an absolute truth when we, as humans have been saying something so profound for thousands and thousands of years?
@faultroy the only manipulator here is you, you are present through out these comments, attempting to tear people down, you lead a very sad life.
Thank you, doctor peterson your videos are changing and have changed my life i am now ready to face my fears instead of doing what makes me miserable
Where was this man when I was young? I certainly could have used
him.
Impress with how he hacks informations and delivers them with so much ingenuity and ease. You are a credit to your profession and humanity.
Look where you least want to but don't expect to find the "Golden Goose" every time!!!
Life will still demand more of you than what your prepared to give...
I cannot promote this speaker any more than absolutely. He may not have everything figured out but he sure does have a lot. This is the kind of man that I want to be.
Mysticism vs reality is the crux of too many concocted personal problems.
Biology is humbling and has a way of reminding me how precious life is or
can be via my random birth into existence and external influences.
Jordan Peterson is truly a blessing for humanity....
I think this advice - unfortunately and luckily at the same time - is especially true for those of us who are damaged. Those from dysfunctional families, those who knew what a war zone looks like before they could even mumble the word, those who lost their shelter and family when they were just kids. If you try and run from those things - you‘ll be running all your life. But the moment you stop and face the dark that’s lurking within you - you will start to defeat it and keep it under control.
P C I am not sure I get your point, but of course you can recover from anything. Weather it’s abuse, war or other catastrophic events. I never saw myself as a victim, but as a survivor. Life goes on and the world waits for nobody.
@@Ninitschga Then you are rare in my experience. Many people live out these past experiences as & with a victim mentality. They refuse to see it, face it, or change it. They allow it to destroy themselves & all in their path. Congratulations on your growth. That takes courage, faith & character. 🤗
I listen to this man everyday for at least one hour throughout my day. I have learned so much from him. He is a GODSEND! People who don't like him, can not handle the Truth!
I used this when I was a stock trader....Look where no one is looking. When everyone says no, that's where I want to be. I made a fortune trading like this.
Teach me bro
Probably a lie. U r still on RUclips posting on comments
@@masonhood3904 So traders aren't allowed to comment?
i lke him because, to me he's honest and right, refreshing to hear that.
Yep, I get it, If you pray for rain, you have to deal with the mud as well,,,,been there and faced what held me back,,,still doing it.
This exact video saved my life from suicide. Suicide is not a one time thing, it spans across time, it's weeks, months, years. This video helped me battle the part of my brain telling me to jump everyday. You are awesome because of that, never stop touching people. You have a gift for it. 3 years later I come across this video as a different person. Now the wall that had the powerful phrase is painted white with no trace of such words. But still, in my mind, I can gaze those words and appreciate them, Jordan, and you, for that marker written short lyric made me stay afloat enough so I could wait for the next boat.
The knights not knowing where to go to find what is essentially the pinnacle of life. They don't even know what it is!! And neither do we!! And their first step is to venture off into the darkest part of the forest to find it..... so simple but so inspirational.
Makes sense in a world that rarely makes sense. Well done. Respect Mr Jordan
Despite all that has been revealed,
life is purchased sight unseen.
Despite all that has been concealed,
life is purposed then revealed.
This man is a hero
"you don't get gold without the dragon."
Well, some people does. But as the gold comes without challenge, such people lack the wisdom as the prize of the challenge and they become the next dragon.
Those people arent happy though, truly happy.
@@theclos16 I know many who are living laughing loving hugging dancing and many in here watching videos like this
@@bmd823 cool, me too.
You are my favorite person and guide I'm a Muslim from Algeria
How does this man know so much about me.
Hes a clinical psychologist👌
Hero Journey -Joseph Campbell-
@@dosia1boby794 the hero with a thousand faces😶
Uhh, decades of serious and sincere study
You are, at least at this time, one of several archetypes which are typical.
A truly gifted man. I pray he is well and will be able to continue sharing his genius......
I can't Believe how much faith I got in Myself just by seeing this video. 😳
Dear Prof. JP,
thank you very much for your effort, capacity, dedication and acquired knowledge. Which is so well shared or delivered.
You deserve all our recognition, attention and love.
Ps. Don't forget to sleep once in a while and take care.

Great editing, thank you
The most the most valuable thing is the journey and not what is first sought out, if you're lucky.
Thank you for more great content!
He may never met multitude of people he has helped to live better..thank u sir
I feel as though I'm in the belly of the beast right now. Still!
I have looked hard at myself. I have worked on me for the last several year's. I rid myself of false friends & toxic family. I went through a terrible, year-long depression. I'm still working on me, but I'm still stuck in a town I don't want to be in any longer. Everytime I save for a move, something breaks, & repairs take a big bite from my savings. I keep at it, but there is no end in sight.
I have been through the "darkest part of (my) forest". But there is no change. The "old way" didn't work, so I no longer bother using it. But the "new way" doesn't seem to work either.
I feel like a rat in a maze, & the damned "scientists" keep moving the panel's around.
What if you were to somehow...gain control of the panel that the scientists keep moving around?
You didn’t get where you are overnight, so it’s not going to change overnight (several years) either. Just stick with it and continue to do what is right and good and honest, and you will ultimately reap rewards. Maybe God is testing you on how serious you are about changing.
MissKsMom ;
I'm 52. I have always looked hard at myself. That's easy to do when Toxic kin have always blamed their flaws on me. Blamed me for everything! I have endured decades of abuse. Not all of it from "family". Other's see how my kin treat me, & treat me the same way. They have permission, after all. I have studied the Bible all my life. I know it well. I know myself better. Likewise, I have spent year's studying human behavior. More & more, an old adage is proven.... "People ain't no damn good". I have learned this lesson the hard way!
But I do NOT know the mind of God. Nor do you. For you to make such an assumption shows only foolish pride on your part. You, like them, put the blame on me. Pure Hubris.
I look for answer's everyday. From every source. Many want to appear wise, & offer mantras, quotes, & passages.... But nothing, NOTHING! I haven't already read.
You do NOT have the answer's. No one does.
My Grandmother use to say, "Those whom God loves, he test's."
Well, God must ADORE me. In spite of all I have suffered, & all the Betrayals, I still pray daily.
But I am NOT Job. My hope IS fading. (Proverbs 13; 12) These test's cannot go on a lifetime. At some point, they have to end. I have forgotten the exact line, but there is another passage from Proverbs that asks, "...but a wounded Spirit, who can bear?"
My wounds are deep and old. Yet new wound's come almost daily. Something has to change.
I’m so sorry my comments were hurtful. Maybe getting away from your family and getting a job you like to keep you from thinking so much might help. I only wish you the best.
@@smc1942 You called your kin toxic? Maybe you're the problem, but of course I don't know. And going through a hard time for years on end like you are isn't a sign of God testing you, keep him out of it. You're in control of your own actions. It's just that what you're doing isn't working. You have to clearly identify the problem, come up with a solution, and put systems in place to prevent it from coming back. I mean, you can't just sit there and blindly wait for an opportunity, you got to go for it. Come up with a plan that includes a timeline, the terms of success and terms of failure, and just go after it! Plan AROUND the problems.
I'm not sure how I came across one of your videos yesterday but, they have been so conducive to me! I was at a point of needing new motivation insight, and there you are! I've listened to this video today (sunday) over 20 times! No doubt God guided me to your videos! Thank you so much!
I love this!!! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Totally giving me insight I have never thought about and sorely needed. I would have loved to have had him as a professor for philosophy in college. Those kids don't realize how lucky they are! Maybe they do? So passionate and just a natural at translating the theories, thoughts and really enjoy his updated interpretations of such.. Thank you!
Right! Except story of Jonah is a factual truth’ Sooo ok💯👍
This man helps a ton its amazing
Often times people don't get him because they do not visualized themselves in what he's saying.
Jordan Peterson is an incredibly well-read, clinically experienced, observer and thinker. I'm so grateful he's willing to expend all the effort he does to help us learn how to pursue our best selves. Many thanks, Jordan!
I love you all
whoooaa!- you beautiful
This guy speaks in rhetoric and simplistic parables that are appeasing to the simplistic minds of his audience.
