    This made me think about a conversation I had with a friend who was wise WAY above his years. I was about 10 riding motocross stopped chatting with my friend's older brother, about 16, next to this big jump I wanted to try and he was like, "You haven't hit that yet?! Oh man you got it." And I said, "Yeah you're probably right, I want to do it but I'm scared!" and he just looked at me and was like, "... so then do it scared." And it blew me away, because he wasn't dismissing the fear like I expected him to, he totally understood and acknowledged it, and was like you're scared? So what, do it anyway. Do it scared. And I think about that REMARKABLY often even still, and this was almost 20 years ago now.

      That's exactly what "Don't be a pussy means".

    • @FromThe3021
      @FromThe3021 3 года назад +7

      "Don't be a pussy", as in
      "Don't be a scaredy cat".
      Being a chicken means you cluck & run around, refusing to go through with the act (like when two drivers play chicken).
      A scaredy cats will either just sit there and lick itself, ignorant to the pressure of any commands or it will scurry off in such haste that will include a jump, flip or any other crazy cat like manoeuvre (see Internet) which will itself will be more challenging than the act. In either case, the cat isn't genuinely scared, why would they be? They have 9 lives.
      They might run from a dog but that's just smart. As soon as they are out of reach, they just chill, no matter how nuts the dog might be going below. The cat will chill just out of reach. So what I'm highlighting is that a scaredy cat isn't a scared cat or a cat that's scared, a scared cat would throw itself out of a building window just because it doesn't want to a be picked up. Can you picture a cat shaking, fearful of its abusive owner? It doesn't happen.
      So for example, when a group is encouring someone, they get called "chicken" first. If the person gets up in response to do it straight away, the group starts calling out "scaredy cat" because they have stepped up like they have no fear but this never works as encouragement, the person is only reminded they don't have 9 lives. When does anyone get called both these names then just go ahead and do the act? I haven't seen it.
      However, when someone is called a "chicken", if they aren't,m and they start to explore the idea, they may invision themselves doing it, they are still scared but they go through the possible scenarios, building up courage. The group sees this and they start to yell "Don't be a scaredy cat", meaning do it scared. "Don't be a pussy".
      So that's it kiddies, remember. "The more you know, the more you grow".

      I think that's a failed statement.

I feel like he's prodded a LOT of people,, just a little bit. Perhaps enough for them to look further into the concepts themselves... People can love or hate him, but I think it/'s getting harder to sell the story that he's a harmful influence, Nothing he suggests is anything other than beneficial to one's life. Lol seems like they gave on on trying to label him alt right, as they did years ago and failed miserably.

    Theo, I’ve heard some fearless self analysis from you in this conversation and have seen a lot of admirable introspection that I respect. What a great episode. You really navigated this conversation in a brave way. I’ve watched this podcast and thought to myself, “How would I navigate the waters with Jordan Peterson?” In my idiot’s mind’s eye, you really did a great job, and your sincerity and honesty drove the discussion. I saw a part of you that stepped away from the comedic aspect of your social construct. Well done, bro. I applaud you, as well as Jordan Peterson.

      I agree and I also get the feeling Dr Peterson quite enjoys talking with someone as genuine and intellectually as innocent as Theo. He really got a kick out of many of Theo's analogies as he explains his perception so honestly without trying to keep some fake persona. Plus he openly hates Satan which is generally an indicator of a good person

    The first book I took each rule and ruminated on it, taking notes and trying on the behavior until i integrated it then moved on.. It took me months to get through it.
    This one I read in one sitting I was so famished for the material.. Then went back and read it again, taking notes and, again beginning to try on the behavior.
    The second way was, for me, better because I was able to incorporate more in a shorter time frame.
    This man has touched my life profoundly. I am 73 and it is never too late to learn, grow and be a better person.
    So glad to have him back. Hope to have the honor of seeing him in person again. Being in a room with a couple thousand people hanging in every word was a truly spiritual experience. That his humility does not allow him to grasp what joy he gives is amazing. He is completely without arrogance or hubris.
