This problem is, I don’t have a goal. I don’t know where I’m going, I’ve done most everything I can think of I wanted to do and I feel completely stymied life sometimes just seems hopeless and what I’m looking for is hope or some enthusiasm towards any goal.
I’m having tea while listening and straightening my hair. Yes, I like that illustration of the desert. I have a plan - develop my mind, body and soul so I just go work out first.
Thank you so much - everytime i take so much courage from you - am greek,my grandfather use to say, if u dont have a port,no wind is favourable - thanks for being here for all of us
I have no idea how to move fwd. I went to school for teaching & got great grades, but couldn’t pass the difficult Algebra in the license exam. I developed test taking anxiety. I went back to school for nursing & couldn’t pass the algebra for the practical exam. I got tutors/ nothing worked. Now I have too many student loans & no idea what to do. I feel stuck. I know I have test taking anxiety to the point I feel like I can’t concentrate. Now I have no idea of what I can do to make a good living & avoid test taking. I feel stuck & want to move fwd but everything I wanted to do feels out of reach & I have no idea what I want to do or can do now.
You want advice? 1. Go back living with your parents, so there is no financial stress and need for anxiety. 2. Get your anxiety straight 3. Get a job to pay off your debts 4. Move forward and be stoic and in moving over again
Be a cat sitter, find happiness by working hard on anything, if you can't do it, do something else and keep trying until you find what suits. Ask your neighbourhood if any assistance is needed as you aren't working and need guidance and motivation.
Boo hoo stop whining (i say with love). Understand these are first world problems. Be happy you can drink fresh water every day. As for your loans, don't pay them, they'll go away in 10 years. Make your financial mistakes when you're young and you'll be ok to use what you've learned by 30. It's not the end of the world. I was homeless by the age of 12. I pitied myself for 10 minutes and then decided to never pity myself again. Picked myself up by my bootstraps and began carving my way through this world. That's what you need to do right now. We all have our challenges to face in life. Nobody has it easy, it's all a matter of perspective.
This is truly visionary. So simple, yet so profound. I've been at a loss since the twin events of my wife's passing and my retirement from work. I did observe just before my retirement that "unscheduled time will not my friend". If it wasn't a work schedule, my family life/relationship pretty much dictated the allotment of most, if not all of my time. Man, I could not have been more right. Since that time I've been pretty much an aimless wanderer, operating in fits and starts to get a grip on a direction. Pick a positive direction and make a heading for it. Might need a course correction along the way but you gotta have a goal/direction. And no, it cannot be a "general direction". Be specific and be time constrained or it won't work. Trust me, been doing that and it does not. Thank you for this content!
So, my father had a large amount of narcissistic traits with co-morbid bpd. My mother was always seeing to his needs. At first, my eight year old sister handled my emotional needs until my mother had another child two years later. My older sister always wanted at younger sister. This left me forgotten with an unavailable father, an occupied mother, a teenage brother, a parental focused adolescent sister, and a doted upon younger sister. How would I even start?
Its why to heal betrayal the best medicine is the parties to heal in a manner where both are healthy while they then get closure from each other. That's the best way not always the way that's possible. I had an attorney once named barney. He was frequently late n drunk.
what do you do if you want nothing, maybe one will say that one have not found what he wants, or perhaps the goal is to suffer less but what if you are content in the suffering even it troubles you, its like an addiction
Does Canada feel like Canada after it is returned in responsible hands, after growing up in the country and seen the land handed over to muslims or Palestinians hot and bothered to work but really bad at it. I've worked in the trades and temps for 20 years and there's a difference today how ethics seem unprepared to handle tasks from other countries. They can do the job to the end of the day. My issue is they horde all the tools and leave them in wide places hard to recover like they're stashing tools. In temp situations if they stash a tool and not return that tool is found by me.
But there is a problem..I am living in this fantasy world from last 10 years... something bad happenes to me ,I just go to that fantasy world....i start thinking about all good things, ....and i haven't moved a single Inch in my life in 10 years....

I suffer depression. Also anxiety. I love you.
I can't stop nodding- his way of speaking and explaining is so raw and knowledgeable.
Thank you so much, Jordan Peterson.

Your intelligence is showing!
I wish I learned this in my teenage years…
Sometimes the agents of karma swirling around me when I’m out at say -Walmart or a doctors appointment makes for weird confusion moments.

Anticipatory pleasure? I’ve heard of anticipatory anxiety, but not anticipatory pleasure.
