"You have to believe your actions have some redemptive possibility"
This just hits the nail on it's head.
Absolutely. And we have no idea how the symphony of our actions affects others and what the effects will have upon all of us.
I so appreciate that he says "something you might do as a clinician OR as a friend or as a partner." Helping someone heal is not sacred to the realm of the clinical.
Tbh I think he's just avoiding argument of authority 😆
I literally five minutes ago had a dr. Say they argue to me their way is better than God's. Perfect timing ty
Dr. Peterson! I'm 18 years-old and trapped inside of a perpetual Purgatory but I escaped Hell thanks to you. Over the last year and a half you opened up my eyes to the fact that there is a lot of order and stability on which my culture rests.. guided at least at its core by Judeo-Christian values. I've mostly stayed away from the social world but when I talk, I often accidentally imitate the characteristic themes of your speaking. The patterns of thought you've outlined in "Maps of Meaning" and "Personality and its Transformations" often encourage me during daily runs, weight-lifting, or while I strive stupidly and blindly to be "the best dish-washer" and prep person at Taco Bell. I struggle severely with amphetamine addiction to motivate myself to sit stupidly and quietly in college.. long enough to find real meaning and truth buried in the shallowness and ease of a lot of classes and the "tacit" mentalities of my classmates. I'm trying to quit and I'm making the most meaningful moral choices that I can conjure up.
Maybe it's stupid to pretend I'm writing this to you specifically but screw it. I'm sick of repressing my words to conform to the shallowness of the world. You made Christianity meaningful to me. You saved my life by awakening possibility in me. And even though I've hit a long plateau for the last 9 months, I'm treading it with a certain superordinate grace and faith. God bless you.
Stay the course❤ living with purpose and meaning is the only way to live. Wishing you strength.
That’s what prayers are for. It’s mustering up a positive mind for someone in your life you feel good about.
Phil: 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-meditate on these things.
I’m an old man, I’ve known a great many troubles but most of them never happened.
Stay strong but look into taking omega-3 supplements to calm the mind. Most of us are deficient, but with supplements and oily fish the brain will mend and attention span will improve.
God bless you, you are on the journey of your life. I will pray for you 🙏
Awesome
I came back listening to you sir after a year or so....I am on this path and have bettered my life and trying to better the world around me ...thanks a lot sir ... gratitude

@S1Cool Gratitude is the key to fighting depression. I wrote a list of 10 things I was grateful for when I was living in my bed and just wanted to die and it worked! I was a homeless veteran and now I express my gratitude for having a roof over me and my dog. My friends died around me as a 35-year-old so I ended up without any other friends left. Its easy to feel sorry for yourself and the pain inside is driving you insane. Now I am over the worst part and have rewired my brain into another type of thinking! If I did it as a suicidal drug-addict anyone can????!!!!

Honestly, as soon as I started going to church a few months ago, my overall mood has been consistently high. Much higher than I can ever recall. It's helpful to have real connections and to turn your focus outside of yourself towards something greater.
So very true. 💛
I’ve started doing the same thing. 100% agree.
God bless you, awesome and true 😊
I dropped out of church 10 years ago because of frustration with church leadership when I should have just changed churches, I’m not in denial I’ve been on a downhill roll ever since.
Hey, please dont turn your back to god when your „high“ is over and normal or even bad things happen. ..
Please lift each other up, all ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
To do something good for another person Is a great way to fight depression and anxiety. I gave myself the task of finding at least one stranger to help like giving a homeless man a meal or helping an old lady with her groceries. I spent 7 years in bed in a deep depression after several friends who were around 35 years old like me and my closest and dearest souls and they died for one reason or the other pre-pandemic. Practising being Grateful by starting each morning to get together a list of 10 things I was grateful for, no matter how significant it might seem, and together with tons of prayers by only focusing on gratitude got me out of my bed and back into life again.
Thank you Jordan for being my therapy almost daily. I fail daily but one day I will bring about the changes in my life that would make you proud of what youre doing for people.
Thank you so much Mr. Peterson, god has blessed you with the ability to bless others. My sincere and deepest gratitude. I hope you have a beautiful life.
- Stop drinking or at least stop binge drinking.
- Get to bed early and get enough sleep. (this is crucial)
- Get out every day.
If any of those are difficult, talk to your doc about meds to help get you where you need to be. Therapy is hit or miss unfortunately, but it's worth trying if your insurance covers it.
and, doing nothing is the one thing in your control that is more or less guaranteed to make things worse. one 'trick' i used to convince myself to get out more was that if i was going to be miserable anyway, i might as well change the scenery. slowly led to not instantly reacting to these negative impulses. that's a start at least, which can be huge.
Who's insurance covers it??? Not mine I've always paid cash😮

After the first step is the next step! The most important step a person can take.
Watching this giant of a man in the flow state, so excited by communicating with his peers in humanity. Fellow travellers looking to lift themselves up. Employing a sophisticated story to convey a message to that aim. Just bloody marvellous eh. Thanks Doc 🙏🔥
I PUT this video in my “keep for another time”!!!! THANK YOU!!💝🕊️
Great reminder on the power of small, consistent actions! 🌟 Focusing on incremental improvements truly compounds over time and creates lasting change.
This man has earned every penny he has, through hard work. This isn't easy at all!
He makes it look easy, but he combined many great thinkers ideas in a way to provide practical
benefit.
Dr Peterson Sir, you are a beacon of hope...I highly respect how you deliver the much needed information to the masses. I pray for you and your family !!!!
Ive never not known the sense of depression, its been a feeling deeply entrenched in my day to day life sense I was a teenager. Anyone else?
Same here, I think in my case it's because I'm autistic. I can remember being depressed as a kid.
I remember this saying...a child can only be as happy as the saddest parent. My mom had a lot sadness but was rarely depressed. I think that is my challenge to make sure I don't pass that level of sadness on to my kids.
I was depressed my entire life and occasionally still experience it. Now I have the tools to fight it though.
My mother nvr missed a chance to tell me what a "space cadet" and "loser" I was. I realized, in alcoholic anonymous al-anon that it was her voice in my head that was the main cause of my self-destructive behavior. Took me years of therapy to understand this and forgive her. I willingly cared for her in her last painful years of life (yup, ME, the black sheep) and was finally able to forgive her, bc I realized she was projecting what was done to her.
Forgiveness brings peace, and that, with taking responsibility for my own life choices, is how I moved forward.
God bless you, Dr. Peterson. You're truly a gift from God to today's confused world!! ❤❤❤🙏
Sometimes it’s a good to go to a psychiatrist and get antidepressants if you really don’t remember what it feels like to not be depressed
I didn't grow up Christian but I found out that the concepts written about in the bible are literally real, not just metaphorically. Jordan Peterson was a blessing for me having a map of why the values really mattered but when I found out the literalness I realised there was a spirit world full of evil. And the reason I'm saying that is because the devil deeply wants to make people miserable, disobedient of God and full of darkness and lack of hope. So I wanna say that although I don't know the details and I wasn't in the exact same position as you , Jesus lifted me straight out of that place and gave me a real relationship with the Father and protection from the devil. It doesn't mean everything is always perfect and it doesn't mean the devil doesnt try to tempt and afflict and all that. - but Jesus has proved to be genuinely trustworthy and real - beyond my understanding no matter how wise my decisions are. When we're in sin and lack of faith, pathways to evil open up and allow it to afflict us more, when we put things on Jesus he can keep us spiritually safe - the big stumbling block is often choosing our own will and understanding over God. not every church is amazing. But Jesus is faithful. and the other lesson I learnt was drawing near to him and not waiting for some sort of miracle allowed me to open myself a lot more to him and eventually the assurance of his existence came anyway. Praying and being in the bible has been a complete refuge me and the devil tried very hard to keep me away from that - he even keeps Christians away from that where he can. It's not just a comfort, it's a spiritual reality which much of this dark world tries to keep us away from or doubting. We can still make mistakes while we're on the right path but the important thing is we're on the right path. The important part is that we have the core of his mercy and salvation - that our sins/disobedience (conscious or unconscious) of God - the source of goodness have kept us away from him and in darkness and lead us into an eternity without him because there is no darkness in him - and that what Jesus did on the cross was a sacrifice so that God was just in allowing us to have complete mercy and access to him and eternity with him in love and goodness when we put our trust in him and turn ourselves from darkness and disobedience. This is a real thing and may not make sense at first but i'm glad God allowed me to face some consequences of my actions to see how true this is. God bless you
Apologies if this is a messily written message but I hope you get the point, and if it seems right and good for you to do so then pray to the Father for truth in Jesus name and for his guidance and salvation (which everybody needs no matter how well they're doing)
A voice of truth & logic in our times. Truly blessed by your insight & existence. God bless you & continue to stand true to who you are & your beliefs
So many people need to hear this right now. Praying for our country! ❤

@@lovepeople951 that's a very interesting take, especially coming from an iraqi. food for thought, thanks!
Seein Dr. Peterson bringing wisdom to a captive crowd is a thing I only imagined, but at the time, the turn of the decade I thought of him as a more reserved college professor at most, involved accidentaly into chaos by political activists who would share bits of knowledge to young (at the time) people. I'm glad this is actually happening, amazing. Those who kicked him out of the system and took away his license out of malice made this happen, thankfully he conquered this dragon and is using it as flying mount. I can't help but smile seeing these losers seething and him thriving.
Beyond me how anyone can hate this man. He literally just wants people to be happy, healthy and have a meaningful life
Because many folks trouble listening to people they don’t agree with. His political can be a bit hard for some to swallow but even so he has a lot to offer the world a lot!!!
I find it incredible that a clinical psychologist can stand on a stage like a comic monologue depression related talk for so long to a massive group of people just sitting listening to it.
No doubt paying good money for it as well.
To me it shows what state mind the population is in.
Well done to Mr Peterson
Thank you so much for your insightful talks Dr Peterson!! You’ve had such a huge impact on my life!
Thank you again Mr Peterson! If psychologists talked & explained everything like you do, the world would be a much better place! Most psychologists just listen to your BS & give very little input! You also are very good at motivating people! I wish all that you have helped would say it! Because you have helped many people to make life better! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for keeping us updated! I feel sympathy
and empathy for our country. low income people
are suffering to survive, and I appreciate Deborah.
You've helped my family with your advice. imagine
investing $30,000 and receiving $95,460 after 28
days of trading.
I began investing in stocks and Def earlier
this year, and it is the best choice l've ever
made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost
a million, and I have realized that when a
stock makes it to the news. Chances are
you're quite late to the party, the idea is to
get in early on blue chips before it becomes
public. There are lots of life changing
opportunities in the market, and maximize
it.
What opportunities are there in the market,
and how do 1 profit from it?
You can make a lot of money from the
market regardless of whether it strengthens
or crashes. The key is to be well positioned.
I would really like to know how this actually
works.
All you need is a good capital, and the
service of a professional broker, with those
your investment will most certainly produce
high yields.
I feel like this video popped up at the perfect time
No such thing as coincidences. The universe loves synchronicities and revealing them to you in the perfect timing 💛

I've been in a real low point recently. I'm very glad this video crossed my path.

Oh my! I was just today reading Dante's Comedy where he comes out of Inferno and finally sees the stars again, staggering into Purgatorio after the horrors of Inferno and he is washed by sweet Virgil with the dew, washing away the stain and grime of hell. He still has a long, long way to go, but it is so moving. Anyone reading this, do yourself a favour and read the whole Comedy of Dante, not just Inferno. Read it all. You will never be the same.
I've been wanting to...your comment just made me order it!!
Thank you, Sir ♥
YES! YOU DEAR DR. are SO DEAR to share your knowledge to the world. I am quite old now but back when I was 25 with5 babies and # 6 on the way and my husband was a fireman. I was at the sink trying to cut my wrist and the thought of going to HELL had me hesitating.
…what if HELL was worst than this??? And if it was IT IS FOR
ETERNITY!!!
After crying a long time… and a few knicks watching the blood drip and thinking and talking to Jesus but mostly to HIS Mother Mary.
I decided it was not worth the risk. I chose life. It did get better and I think of that when I get very down because being OLD is not for sissies. It is still better than HELL. Now, I have been working at Sainthood. Much better. 💗🎁💗🕊️🙏💝
Good work.
One of the things people may know that you don't is about you. We tend to think we know ourselves best. That simply isn't true. We know ourselves uniquely. We see ourselves from an internal perspective that no one else can. That doesn't make it better or more complete than any other perspective, just different. In fact, we often miss things about ourselves because of that internal perspective. Listen when people describe you there is something to it. Listening doesn't mean heed; they might also be talking trash.

I know this is a great community so I decided to come here to get some advice. So recently I have been kind of the person everyone goes to if they need to get stuff of their shoulders, which I’m glad to be there for them don’t get me wrong, but it has started to weigh on me. And I’ve had a lot of stuff happen in my life, but over all I have a good life. But recently I have been getting more and more depressed so I went to my mom and asked her to take me to a doctor and therapy and all of that. I only told her that I have been very sad and I just wanted someone to talk to. I didn’t tell her that I have harmed myself and has suicidal thoughts because she has said that only attention seekers to that stuff. So she scheduled an appointment and told my dad about it so when I went to his house we started talking and he was talking about how my step sister needs therapy and that he doesn’t think I need it because I’m fine. So then I called my mom and told her to cancel the appointment she made and she said that he was right because I don’t have anything major going on. But then she started comparing me to my friend, who does not have it very good at all. She basically said that my friend has it super bad off and that I should be grateful that I have a good life and that I need to be there for my friend. And I am there for my friend they will call be balling their eyes out and I’ll try to be there the best I can for them. But they never ask me how I’m doing and if I start talking about my issues they will start comparing our problems. But I am kind of lost on what to do now because it just keeps getting worse. I’m open to any advice whether it’s in my favor or not. Thank you all!
I suffer with Depression.. it is so much worse if you also have debilitating anxiety disorder. If it’s not your depression getting you down, it’s your Anxiety stopping you from doing new things. 😢
Iam depressed too
I am sorry to hear this.

0:25 This just raised my mood. I might not be as hopeless as I think considering I came up with this exact strategy on my own but I'd like to point out that scale shouldn't just be 1-10 (depression) but from -10 up to +10 (Depressed X Happy/Maniacal). I think it's slightly more accurate and gives more leeway for unexpected swings of mood (which was very useful in my case..). The problem is I never truly figured out what was causing the changes. They seemed random and, for the most part, not corelated with any external influences. I guess the only thing to do here, as always, is to try again like a madman, repeating things and expecting different results.
In the event that you begin to feel useful to other people, particularly your family, you will never again experience feelings of depression.
It is possible to recover from depression. Simply take things easy and look for a reason to function.
"What you don't know, is more important than what you do know."
Then the question is: how do you find out?
Quitting caffeine fixed my depression. I once spent every day wanting to end it all. I had no self esteem. No motivation. No creativity. Stuck in the loop. It turned out caffeine caused my episodes. Society doesn’t talk about this but we are ADDICTED and it’s causing a depression epidemic. Just look at how many caffeinated drinks there are at the local 7-Eleven. Look at all the kids holding a Frappuccino after school.
How did you even discover that? I would think that's a rare thing, and it's rarely one trigger for a person. I have to skip coffee some days due to stomach issues. it makes no difference, other than that I'm more tired that day. I drink small amounts that add up to a large mug or so a day, so I doubt it's that. One of my small pleasures in a sea of crap and getting by. Plus it used to be seasonal, where over half the year I was normal.
@@saintejeannedarc9460 Could probably be a case of overuse, or maybe a problematic association of coffee drinking with numbing the feeling of dopamine absence...while at the same time facilitating coffee-provoked anxiety, but the kind of anxiety that your unaware of, because the dopamine dose gives a feeling of "good-procedure-followed" that overshadows the realization of anxiety, although it is there. (Probably I don't make sense but yeah...)
Very interesting connection you made. I do drink way too many of those spiked drinks. I should give your theory a try.
@@jaimhaas5170 It's always worth a try. I do no caffeine drinks other than coffee and a bit of tea. Tea is a pretty different kind of caffeine, related but different.
it makes sense that if you are neurotically inclined, caffeine could make that worse. or if you are just naturally sensitive.
This one came up at the rightest time . Boy was i depressed 😔

Refreshing to hear him speak about the same things in almost exactly the same way for years with it feeling "new". Its a good reminder of what his rules are. Although I wish Dr. Peterson would expand upon his 24 rules or add more. It takes about a year to go through all his self development content.
Thank you for creating and sharing this content, Jordan. You do an immeasurable amount of good.
This is solid.
Heavy, heavy stuff man. Love it
One step at a time can get you upward and onward. ❤ Thank you Dr. Peterson.
First step is the hardest. I was 50 lbs heavier and in terrible shape 3 years ago. Now I run a 5k here or there and joined a gym with a weekly class schedule. All started with picking up some weights and learning from there.
Thank u dr. Peterson.
Keep a mood record every hour.
Have a observation eye like horus and birds and improve everyday.
Introspect everyday what led to the condition of mine like this.
I suffered with depression until started martial arts. No anti depressiants now for 3 years and going well
The man, the legend
May God protect and bless you dearly❤❤❤❤❤, thats my prayer🌹🙏🥰
Good message
Despite of not sharing some of your other ideas Mr Peterson , this video is very helpufulff to me . I apretiate it a lot. Thanks
Honestly at this point I doubt I'll ever step away from it.
Far too comfortable being at the bottom and I would rather stay here than fall again.
Self defeat is more bitter than honestly failing after trying your best because if you do your best and fail, you’ve learned something that may help you succeed next time but self-defeat is failure because you’re too lazy or cowardly to try. You decide your fate. If you’re a natural coward you can overcome it through effort. The same is true of lazy people. All it takes is effort. Tell failure to get out of your head; there’s no room for it there and it doesn’t pay rent anyway.
I wish more people would listen to Jordan.
Yeah this is good 👍
I especially like the fact that I can look at my life and very easily fit what the good doctor is saying to match what I experience. I’ll always take internet advice with a grain of salt but it’s a good start when the person talking actually understands my perspective.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand it's 11am with depression... Being healthy is something I crave 😿 I just try not to give up
Phenomenal
Dr Peterson - thank you for educating us with your wise words
Jordan Peterson is out here saving lives💯Pray that you and your family have a blessed one, J. P.....along with everyone else watching🙏
Thanks for everything JORDAN PETERSON 🙏🏻❤️
I guess I'm doing pretty good for 70 years old if my cats would just quit fighting😾
Thank you Jordan.
It's noon and I am alone in bed. Time to get up.
Get up man! What are you waiting for!!! :))
Make your bed first thing when you wake up. It’s a great motivator not to crawl back in.
You can do this!
Go serve someone else today, this week, watch the magic happen
Wise words. Thank you Dr. Peterson for all that you do.
So hard to do what you love when the dark clouds roles in.
The beautiful thing is that once you consciously track your mood your psychy will slowly alter your actions on its own.
If you don't have enough energy for the rest it's 100% ok to focus on just tracking.
i am suffering so badly and medications don't work and therapy either it feels like some dark energy that attacking me please may god help me :(
See a different professional. You are in the wrong place. Most meds take 2 weeks to start to work.
Look at the parts of your life that are negative or out of balance.
Make apologies to people, try to fix everything.
If tou are not able to fix any relationships.... seek Atonement.... yes Atonement a very hard this but will bring peace.
Wish you only the best. Just a quick comment from my side I don't know the details. Good luck!!!!!
I urge you to seek out a Catholic priest to talk to, or at least a legit, Christian-based psychology practice. They can do a world of good! Also, if there is anything of the occult or mildly occult in your life -- anything at all, like dark-themed video games, movies, TV shows, books, etc.,... or individuals in your life who are fascinated by that stuff... root all of it out of your life immediately and forever. Things like ouija boards, tarot cards, witchcraft, or magic spells, or even seemingly benign things like horoscopes or yoga can lead to darker stuff.
Next step is to root out anything that involves heavy internet use.
My advice. Find a provider willing to test you for meds that will work for you genetically, in addition to other things people are mentiining on here. A small town dr of mine did dna testing thru Geomind for me. I have been on so many different SSRIs over the years, only to still be painfully depressed and anxious. The thing about my depression was no matter how beautiful a place i was in life, i felt emotional pain without reason. I was starting to give up after a lifetime of depression, thinking that i may be treatment resistant. My dna testing found i have MTHFR gene issues that affect B Vitamin usage, not allowing them to be used entirely. B vitamins affect mood chemicals in the brain. Geomind identified drugs that will work and what would cause side effects or not be effective. Two prescription changes and i started living my life for the first time. I understand why people are happy. Now i can feel it. For the first time in 40 years. No depression. Feeling happiness and gratitude daily for my life. Annoying everyone i come across because i am in a good mood! I am devoted to my faith i will honestly say faith is the only thing that kept me here for many years. I thought i would die young but now hope to live to old age because the crushing pain of suffering is over. I have been healed. It can happen for you even if you feel you have tried everything. Try geomind testing
Hi - God bless you. I never used to be a Christian but in 2021 i found out that the spirit world and Jesus and that basically everythign written in the bible is literally real. And Jesus saved me from darkness I was in. The devil wants us to be miserable, to lose hope and to constantly associate everything with shame and condemnation. But God sent Jesus because even though every human being has disobeyed God, sinned and done wrong (whether conscious or not) and fallen short even by their own standards - which has extremely big consequences for our souls, because God is the pure source of love, goodness and life, so when we disconnect from him I believe it's disconnect from goodness itself - one small wrong part on a helicopter can make things go very wrong (sorry couldnt think of a good enough analogy lol). But even though have all these consequences which we do "deserve" - God sent Jesus to give us mercy and lift us out of that by living a perfect life, being a perfect example and being a sacrifice so that he could fairly/justly "pay the fine" for our sins and allow us to be saved by putting our trust in Jesus and obeying him - once we do that we're no longer trusting ourselves for salvation and goodness but we're trusting in God and God is living through us. Once we let go of what's hurting ourselves we are able to pick up what helps us. And praying and reading the bible (particular the new testament) was a complete refuge to me when I came to God. the devil literally tried to keep me away from those things and he constantly tries to lie to us, make us think his ideas and thoughts are our own, and pull us into temptation, lack of hope and condemnation - but Jesus has already set the path for us and saved us. We simply need to walk in obedience - and what saves us our trust in him (and I believe his sacrifice), not our own deeds/works. It's not always been perfect or easy but the more we draw near to God and stay away from darkness and keep asking him for truth the more clear it becomes - and one of the biggest gems for me has been realising that if we draw near to God first before waiting for any sort of miracle or anything - then our feet will be on solid paths and for me atleast it has become very very clear it's literally real. So God bless you. If some of this stuff sounds weird or overly religious don't worry too much. The important thing is a loving relationship with a heavenly Father who literally knows you and loves you - so just ask him - Jesus says "Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find" and as we draw nearer to him we find out exactly what that means. Obviously I don't know your situation , I pray God will bless you. For me a big thing has been leaning on God and not my own understanding and being careful of that pride, and knowing that when we sin/disobey God - evil has ways of getting in - and the devil loves putting temptation in our way the moment we are climbing out of darkness so yea. If this is a lot of information I wouldn't worry too much - Jesus allows us to have strength in him and not ourselves so we don't have to know everything or do everything from our own innate might. Even if the stars don't align immediately, it's unbelievable how good and merciful God is - and if we stay steadfast it begins to take shape , especially if we keep seeking truth and understanding. Just a side note: I don't personally recommend catholicism at all and I believe there are a lot of other churches which stay more faithful to the bible - but yeah not tryna make this super denominational or anything. God is good and knows our hearts. hope things get better for u and apologies if this is an insanely long comment ive just been tryna stream of consciousness share some truth which has absolutely saved my life on the deepest level. We speak against lies of the enemy in Jesus' name

Interesting how I need this today. Thank you
Listening very carefully ❤
9:04 If you put your mind to it, ... there _are_ things you can set straight.

Let’s go JP!!!!
Heard someone say JP successfully spec'd into an INT/FAITH build.
Man idk where I would be if I didn't stumble upon him
I think a lot of depression symptoms can be ameliorated by exercise and touching grass. Diet also plays a factor, but cardio and time spent outdoors has a big impact on one's mood.
"Purgatory beats the hell out of hell." Nice (unintentional?) antanaclasis.
Yeah, but what if you don't have any friends? :/
Hey man friends can come from the strangest places. Don’t be afraid to take that chance and talk to someone you don’t know once in a while.
Then what would be your first point to lend your ear to, is to notice your state of mind or being through different times in your week. Notice those, then do them more often like he said. Or if there isn’t much, try new things! Hobbies or sports are a great way to make new friends.
Make one… a good one of course. “ it wasn’t good for man to be alone.” Said, the creator of the world 🌎
Anything Could Happen 🔥
I can’t believe you used my ‘name’. I your talk. Thank you.
And this is the man whom the College of Psychologists of Ontario wants to strip of his licence to practice. Because of a few tweets expressing disapproval of and disagreement with "progressive" and "woke" ideas and people. Oh, and one where he called one of the Canadian prime minister's aides a "prik" [sic].🙄 Mad world.
My persnickety half of my brain: "One percent better over 50 weeks equals 1.6446 times better, it takes 70 weeks to get to twice as good."
The other half: " It's still worth the effort, less than 18 months. What would happen if you did two percent better? Three percent? Figure out what would be realistic and give it a try anyway."
Sir Peterson, does the mechanistic view of science manipulate what is considered truth by omitting subjective complexity or qualia?
two thumbs up
“It’s not like you’re gonna get out of this alive” 1 life left
If you want to be good then remember that you are part of life and your purpose is part of this this life, to act against life itself is evil (live spelled backwards) so committing crimes against yourself are in fact crimes against life itself and thus serving evil.
Therefor it's your moral responsibility to treat your own life as worthy as that of anyone else, but not more than that (you are not above anyone, that is pride).
I believe you can
don't condemn yourself for struggling to stop
4:37 Peterson: "Vision pays attention. Assume that the person you're listening to might know _something_ you don't."
dont agree with everything the man says but man hes earnest
If you decide.... that's all it takes...you have the choice of being depressed or not. Change your mind and change your life.
I got away from my depression by decorating in a pine theme and now I'm living the evergreen dream
