I'm just an over the road truck driver but listening to these lectures and podcasts I feel like I'm really broadening my horizon. Thank you.
Thank you for doing the work that keeps our society running smoothly. You're not just a truck driver, you're an important part of our society.
i love truck driving, i love driving
Don't say "just".
We are all indebted to people like you!
And "AS a truck driver a CANADIAN HERO" I am a truck drivers kid from Jerseyville..Author of one national best-selling cookbook and soon to release the"last diet book ever needed". I Loved ❤️ my courageous important D.A.D "RIP". A great man despite him calling me stupid and who bravely fought in the Korean war and could go into a bar with a buck and come out drunk. A man with a great walk. He still makes me smile. Believe it or not he won the lottery for real. An orphan left by his mother with a positivity despite the odds. Thanks Mr truckdriver for helping me write to you about a great man to another great man.

Damn Accurate!!!

He is spot on with his understanding of the mind and consciousness. I haven’t found anyone who explains it better than he does. He is quite amazing in all he has done. I agree with your highlight at 30:45, Thanks for sharing this.
Yup! JP is a blessing to many @@KindnessMatterz
Hell yeah
Correct
It’s hard to imagine going through life without your lectures, Dr Peterson

17:45 Jordan Peterson on Dostoevesky
20:29 Importance of writing (ability to articulate)
37:37 How to be humble while being confident (nöyryys)
why aren't you at the top?!
Thnks mate
I totally agree about Dostoevesky. I read "The Brothers Karamazov" for a college class-- "Sacred Symbols and Patterns of Thought Through Time". That was something like 30 years ago, and I still think about it. Especially the chapter called "The Grand Inquisitor." So much yearning to know truth, so much confusion, complications, false ideas mixed up with true ones.
Jordan B Peterson: "My message to the Hungarians
Do not rebel against your PM
Your leader is trying to restore the metaphysical foundation of the 1000 years old Hungarian empire
I would like to tell you a secret about Jesus and a secret about your PM. Another name for Jesus is Viktor"
Thank you🎉
I still can't believe these lectures are availible for free.
Yeah you are buying a diploma... But education is free...
just as some of the best things in life...
Ikr? Awesome
@@tabucyedisamsun2425 I mean, to be fair (and a bit of a dickhead), watching lectures on RUclips technically isn't free, as you need to pay the electricity invested into watching a RUclips video.

Back in late 2016 when all the fuss about Trump began, the algorithm started to show me videos about a canadian professor who spoke about truth, mithology and history, little did I know that these videos would influence my life the way that they did. I hope this video is thrown into the algorithm for another person to enjoy. We are very lucky for having JP alive talking to us.
This man is a true blessing to humanity.
I found him around that time too, 2015 or 2016, when he started appearing on Joe Rogan's podcast. Joe had interesting psychologists on often, but that first exposure to JP just blew me away. Then I discovered he had all these lectures of myth and Soviet ideology, two things I'm fascinated by. And then had written a book to help people with depression take back control, which I was struggling with at the time. I owe so much emotional and intellectual growth to Dr Peterson now.
I wonder what Dr. Jordan Peterson's stance is on Neon Genesis Evangelion.
I credit Dr. Peterson’s lectures in helping me write and finish my tv show pilot and script for my own graphic novel. Maps of Meaning was a life changing course!
Good luck with your endeavors.
Kinda helps with the whole memory recall thing. I can remember in my middle school years having a friend from PR named Freedom. Wasn’t his real name and he barely spoke a lick of English. We nicknamed him Frito as a result because of how he annunciated his name in his broken English dialect and accent. However, his favorite snack was chocolate peanuts. For some reason I had a sense of awe and surrealism how he was so enthralled with the excess and accessibility to his favorite treat. Which, made me aware for a moment that he probably didn’t have it as good as I did before we met.

He is definitely a gift for all of us who can truly appreciate and understand his philosophy. I’m looking at this students that are sitting in that room and they didn’t know how lucky they were to be there to listen and to learn one the best teachers of our time
I have a great respect ✊🏼 for JP he’s very humble and smart man. I hope he will be healthy and driven to share his teachings with us for long time.

it's more of a matter of reducing your ego enough to understand you have been wrong in most areas of thought, it's not his philosophy, he propagates it

Wow Man congratulations
I love writing. It makes my ideas real. I sit in front of my computer. dial up Google Docs and all of a sudden I'm understanding myself better 29 pages in writing a long, long letter to someone I'll probably never meet. Writing is a conversation--with myself, sure, but with someone of whom I have a model in my head. Everything I've ever written, including papers and articles and two screenplays, were addressed to an imaginary reader. It's communication.
Hey Karen, can we see a blueprint of your writing?
@@gillianobigiman4063 There is no blueprint. I tell my addressee what I'm thinking about and reread it so I know where I am in the world. I'm up to page 47. It has done more for me than I dared dream.
Try going back to pen/pencil and paper.
You might be surprised at what happens...
@@snowyrain5730 very interested in what you mean by this
@@somethi3741 There's a very big difference between using some kind of technology to "write" and not doing so.
Have you seen all those ads for "grammarly" ? Show me anyone who actually needs something like that to write anything at all (in their native language no less!) and I'll show you an idiot.
Similarly, actually writing with a pen/pencil/paper is an organic process and therefore can provide insights while working you won't experience otherwise.
Not to mention, you won't ruin your eyes by staring at a screen all day.
I’m way too poor and probably way too old to go to a traditional university. I had zero desire to go after high school, 20+ years ago, and instead went straight to the work force but also went to a more affordable trade school. I’m grateful for videos such as JP’s so I can get an idea of indeed how to write my own story. Thank you, Jordan. ❤️🙏☮️
Maybe you may give me some advice, on how to cope because sometimes I feel like I'm losing I'm 22 yrs old men, trying to find means to stay sane and build a good future. I have no diploma, no degree but just high school certificate which is not doing a thing. My one dream is left in trading
WOW!!!
"You're either in love with what you know, or you're in love with what you don't know, and there's alot more of what you don't know, so pick you're love carefully..."
WOW!!!
Suddenly my humility doesn't have to cost me my self-confidence!!!
“Suddenly my humility doesn’t have to cost me my self-confidence.” WOW… wow YOU!
One of the greatest gifts my father gave our family besides his unconditional love was his wonderful library of great literature.
Thank you dad, and thank you always JP for your never-ending unconditional inspiration.
how fortunate you are to have had a dad who loved unconditionally and shared books with you. beautiful & wonderful.
Dr. Jordan Peterson put into words what I have recognized to be true for many years but could not articulate clearly. I am grateful for his teaching because it allows me to discuss life issues with my sons in conceptual terms rather than just anecdotal stories and my own life experiences. Thank you Dr. Peterson!
Nothing like eating and watching an hour long Jordan Peterson talk. When I first found out about him I didn’t know he had videos this long, or a podcast even. Now I have something to watch besides movies and shows.
38:08 - "You're either in love with what you know, or you're in love with what you don't know... And there is a lot of what you don't know... So... pick your love carefully"
I am so glad to hear you say that you wrote & re-wrote your sentences over & over. That’s what I do & sometimes it takes me forever to just right a note of encouragement in a card. 😊
you are not alone!! :)
Definitely you are not alone.
I've been a long-time follower of Dr. Peterson, but what really struck me about this video is Dr. Peterson's advocacy for the humanities. I am a student of History, and I have felt over the past several years this sense that my study, along with the rest of the sister disciplines in the humanities, have been denigrated constantly, accused of being an area of knowledge that no longer provides any sort of economic or moral value. The prevailing rhetoric now is that young people either have to get a STEM degree, or go into Trade School; there is nothing else in between that is a worthwhile effort. It seems as if there has been a moral darkening over the population, a growing fixation with what is practical and not with what is good. Yet we've seen with the handling of the pandemic that there is a need for a humanitarian education, because we are increasingly faced with the crises of unethical science and governmental policies. I hope that soon, Dr. Peterson will not have to dissuade people from studying the humanities, and that our western civilization once again rediscovers the importance of the humanities. After all, the study of the humanities was one of the only things that pulled Europe out of the Dark Ages and into the Renaissance and Age of Reason.
Indeed.
The humanities lost their prestige when they began to produce activists instead of thinkers.
Words cannot describe what this man has done for me, and many of my friends. I will be forever grateful for your gift Jordan. I cannot wait to see you in Saskatoon. Thank you Dr.Peterson

The best professor I had in college gave me a C on my first written assignment in his class. I am actually pretty good with words, and pretty well-read, and I was accustomed to getting high marks on everything in all my classes and here I was with a C in front of me? Well, my writing was not concise, it didn't get to the point, it had unnecessary words. It was a linguistics course, not a writing course, but Wick Miller taught me how to write. And it was the best thing I learned out of all my classes.
This man is the kind of professor that I thought I would had at university but I never had
Same here bro. I studied in south korea. Profs mainly used power point and always read...😢 disappointed from univ. lectures😢
I wonder what Dr. Jordan Peterson's stance is on Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Like any brilliant artists, God only made a few.
My husband was abused physically and had cancer as a child, when i met him he stuttered so bad he could barely state his name. Today he speaks clearly, is cancer free, and a great father to both our children. The victory belongs to Jesus!!
Amen. God bless you and your family.
The victory belongs to your husband 🤦♂️
@@lucas8409 he didnt invent Jesus.
@@lucas8409who found the strength (or was given, depending on how you want to look at it) via utilizing the “good” force in the Universe.
Christians attribute it to God/Jesus.
The fact remains that there IS a difference between Good and Evil. The Christian God is the “Good” outcome of every decision every person throughout time could ever make.
Taking notes on Jordans lectures is like writing a book, everything he says is fascinating
I know hey! 😅
"No one argues with their own pain." Now that is a view worth looking into. This is rich. I would love to be enrolled in this course.
Watch his Maps of Meaning course! It's all free, right here on this channel.
Nothing but love and gratitude.. all the way from Jordan in the Middle East ❤
Can't wait for the web course / program that Jordan is building to teach writing skills!!!
im carefull not copy his style tho
Self authoring program is on his website for several years already.
Just recently came across Jordan's lectures and I'm amazed by the (what I describe as) "succinct complexity" of his teachings. I'm so grateful this informative and knowledge-expanding content is available for free and publicly, and thank you Jordan for teaching in such a logical, easy-to-understand and truly inspiring way. 🌟
Yes, agreed. He is a wonderful teacher.

Highly appreciate these lectures, the perspective. After losing my spouse, I lost direction... Mostly meaning. After 4 years of mess and stupidity, treading water wasn't enough. I made rough goals, picked a direction to swim for shore. Your Utube channel has crystalized and given myself a focus these past months. I thank you for turning down the volume of suffering.

"Why would you look into the darkest places? It's because in the darkest places you can find what still shines... then you know it's a real light". J. Peterson. Here a short video (3 mn) with the cumulative studies (from Harvard and so on) showing the effect of faith in dark times in my channel.
@Jack Sprat Sure. That is why one must base any opinion in meta-analysis. In this case more than 100 meta-analysis.

It's not necessarily generated by accomplishing something!"
Thank you for this quoting this
@@The_Idea_of_Dream_Vision You're welcome...
I can see, old as I am, how he would have been and I hope still is, a truly inspirational lecturer. The one you REALLY wanted to be in the class of. A true, great, teacher. THESE are the people we NEED in education, at every level. I studied a crap degree - as in it was great if you wanted to be a chartered accountant. But I did something called The International Management Programme...so I had an AMAZING professor lecturing on the papers in my 4th year, to do with international management. And that experience, was the first time I ever had my mind and horizons in an intellectual sense, truly broadened.
Talks like these that help me put together things I've been trying to assemble myself. Connect the dots. Along w learning things I haven't even considered. I'm working w a much less informed and knowledgeable mind than him, so being able to utilize what he knows is a blessing.
Peruvian writer and Nobel Prize in Literature, Mario Vargas Llosa, wrote many years ago a book called The Truth of Lies. This lecture reminds me of that book. Regards from Chile Dr. Peterson.
This is quite an interesting video with great content, thanks for sharing.....
Building a great future will require making changes to your life now. Whether having a great future to you means having a family, a high-paying job or getting into your dream school, it’s the things you do today will affect your tomorrow. You will have to plan and make deliberate changes in your life.>>
Speaking of financial freedom, I've been thinking about it a lot and the best option is to invest more because I don't think you can get very far depending on a single source of income.
Investing can be intimidating for many people because there are so many options and it can be difficult to determine which investments are the right ones. I would like a recommendation if you have any?
Investors should be careful with their exposure and be careful about new purchases, especially during inflation. These high returns in this recession are only possible under the supervision of a trusted or professional advisor.
You can see how far Dr. Peterson has come, with his recovery and HEALTH, since the conversation with Matthew McConaughey.
Jordan has my whole heart. I love this man and respect his knowledge and words more than words can explain! I just adore him
Part of some of the best lectures I've ever heard from one person.
Thank you for this. Take care Dr Peterson.

I broke up with someone yesterday, and I can assure you being able to write properly and communicate effectively saved us all a lot of drama. Them saying I was a good communicator I felt was a testament to that. I have JP to thank truly, he taught me the importance of being articulate, getting your point across, and the importance of writing in the practise of that.
Me as well, I did not speak my mind but instead wrote down all my thoughts and feelings so I could adequately express them. We have amicably parted ways and I am excited for the future and my next chapter.

As an engineering student who doesn’t take philosophy as a degree very seriously (at least in the state of our universities today) I think I’d be willing to change my degree if I had the opportunity to take a class or two from this man,,, the world needs a few more people with this level of intelligence and wisdom
Wow. Just wow. This is a powerful compilation. Thank you.
My religious/non-religious philosophies are in constant question hearing Jordan Peterson speak. I hope you do more podcasts with Sam Harris. Love you JBP
About halfway through a man mentions a smoking addiction and how he realised he used it as an excuse to not do certain things. That was definitely a big part of it for me.
It's sad but especially after I had my child and was done breastfeeding I started again because I was around it and that made it easier to pick it back up..but many family members were only willing to watch my child when I was smoking.
So I kept smoking because "why not" (and I was depressed and stressed). Until I started to realise I didn't want a smokers cough and I didn't want to spend the money...then I realized I could just say I'm smoking but choose to breathe and take a moment instead. One family member did thankfully understand and was kind to knowingly watch my child for a bit while I just had a break (without smoking).
Back to being honest..I discovered who I wanted around me and my child anyway vs who I didn't. The people that were refusing to watch my kid if I wasn't smoking...all of them ended up being people that I now cut out of my life for many reasons. Just being honest about that one thing was a big hint.
I've cut off my entire family so I understand this
These lectures are golden. I have very few people in my day to day, that I can reflect on any of these greater questions. Your own inner dialogue gets lonely, so I appreciate these videos very much.
I hope Mr. Peterson is doing well.

"Part of being a good person is to alleviate suffering." (16:52)
That explains so much.
It explains the polarization we see today; when we reach a conclusion about how to reduce suffering, we tend to think that others who don't see it that way are working against us.
It explains the temptation we all have to dehumanize those who disagree with our own perspective on what causes suffering and how to reduce it.
It explains why Dr. Peterson has often expressed frustration at people teaching a false morality; chasing after that phantom good only increases suffering, rather than decreasing it, while simultaneously helping its proponents *feel* virtuous and moral.
To know how to truly reduce suffering long term, you need to know the foundational truths of existence.
Glad i can enjoy being in your classroom a true blessing they are available to everyone
Professor Peterson is opening up his figurative heart that is educational and enjoyable in connection to learning which leads to understanding.
Less, “What’s the meaning of life?” and more, “What gives life meaning?” ❤️JBP 🙏
Free knowledge is the most valuable and powerful thing to me and I just started watching your lectures and know I can learn more from you. You’re work is more valuable than many realize I just wanted to thank you and I look forward to learning more.

@@MichaelLabs ok. thank you
@@hosseinakbari9609 I would suggest reading 12 rules for life before reading maps of meaning. 12 rules for life goes into detail on some these ideas in maps of meaning but in a more understandable/graspable way.

Why good writing will always triumph over intersectionality: A decent story will almost always involve multiple characters, and for them to be good characters they have to be written as individuals with their own dreams, motivations, and limitations. This is quite anti-thetical to what progressives in general want: That everyone think exactly the same, have the same morals and desires. If you can swap the names of any number of characters and the story remains the same, odds are you've failed to write anything interesting; and that none of the characters written actually grows past a stereotype.
If you think about it, a lot of stories and movies in the past do have 'woke' themes to them, but none of it mattered because the characters that exist are fully fleshed out; they are individuals. More modern media where the wokeness takes center stage, the characters aren't fleshed out: They become the ideology, a hollow shell that spits out talking points and is never challenged or put to the test; but rather everything they encounter simply re-affirms their position. Their dreams aren't challenged, their resolve isn't challenged, there is no self-reflection or even a hint of possibility that they could be wrong; having a personal internal obstacle is one of the most critical things for a character to develop, but woke characters are given speedbumps to run over: Not life altering dilemmas.
yep. the first thing that comes to mind is santa inc (the shit series from sarah silverman and seth rogan) and it is a prime example of wokeness destroying good storytelling and character introspection/development for the sake of pushing their message. santa (the white male character) explains to the main female character she isnt cut out to be the next santa because she is evidently bad with children. he explains this is in a completely reasonable and compassionate speech, and even offers her a job to work behind the scenes (which of course she scoffs at and brings up the "men getting credit for what women do" BS instead of just being thankful) but at the end of it, the main female character just tells him to fuck off - the character that we're supposed to root for. he of course turns out to be evil, as the writers figured that they needed a proper justification for the protag to be ungrateful, but its such a fucking mess and doesnt work at all, because she of course has to be depicted as the 'right' one. the female protagonist is complete selfish, self-centred and awful to people, but its ok because shes a woman and spouts feminist talking points. its honestly a concerning trend that ive seen in woke media, how selfish, arrogant, and self-important the characters are and how selfish their actions are, and its constantly downplayed or straight up ignored by the writers who have similiar worldviews. wandavision is another example of characters being selfish as fuck and getting away with because "her fee fees were hurt )):"
@@user-bs1ky4uy3s WARNING SCAM alert. Please note this is not Jordan Peterson but a scam.
My book has 5 main female characters. All of which different in not only their looks and sexuality, but also background, political class, culture and philosophy.
It's more fun when you have interesting characters in conflict with each other.
@@righteousshift482 I heard a good argument before that Dune had an effectively conservative world view at it's core, despite the fact it obviously depicted hallucinogenic drug use from first hand experience in the 60s. I don't remember the details of the argument but it seemed compelling at the time. I think was from The Distributist, who is Catholic, so that's a particular bias. I disagree with many of his thoughts, but I do seem to recall his arguments about Dune, assuming it was him, seemed fairly convincing.
I think it's important to notice that conservative and liberal are not directly antonyms. These days conservatives seem to be liberals in that they are trying to conserve liberal values, and "progressives" are often trying to regress us to nonsense that previous progressives freed us from. Many folks labeled "conservatives" fight for freedoms and and many "liberals" are trying to enforce a new ridged authoritarian religion.
There's many ways folks can break down what's different in the factions and mind sets. One is if humans are basically good and corrupted by culture, or if they are basically bad and need to be civilized (while admitting that culture can also become corrupt).
The fact that one can question boundaries and ideas doesn't mean there aren't any they may wish to conserve. While I don't expect many lawyers to write compelling fantasy, and on big 5 personality they are low in openness but high in conscientiousness which correlatedo with conservative (even if they are fighting dirty for gun control or abortion), doesn't mean that the folks who push the boundaries of ideas are not conservative in many many ways. Everything is by degrees.
For an example Christopher Hitchens pointed to a passage from the novel "A Man For All Seasons" in his speech about Free Speech. In it sir Thomas Moore is arguing with a vicious witch hunter, and he asks him: "You would break the law to punish the devil, wouldn't you?" And the guy replies: "Break it? I'd cut down every law in England if I could capture him." And Moore replies: "Yes you would wouldn't you. But when you finally corner the devil and the devil turns around to meet you, where would you flee for protection? All the laws of England having been cut down?"
Note that that's basically a conservative argument. In a famous play. Being used as a good example by a "liberal."
In practice it seems to me there's just an establishment tyranny that requires artists to fall I line with their agenda to be promoted and not suppressed. Apparently war and racism and sexual abuse and so on are all perfectly fine so long as it's "left" wing parties and peoples that do it.
your comment made me emotional for some reason. its so spot on. most likeable characters are actually never politically correct. this might seem like a weird tangent but: im kinda sad they didnt renew 'happy' for another season. i mean it's about an alcoholic daddy with ptsd who has an imaginary friend and a daughter he's trying to save from a pedophile ring. he also slays a lot of baddies which would technically mean he's a serial killer. but he's real, his emotions are real and his heart is in the right place. most modern shows dont seem to produce any truly likeable or memorable characters. feels more like they are pushing some kind of agenda to make people feel morally superior (or inferior). i dunno i am probably getting carried away here. much love anyway.
Thank you for everything that you have done for all of us, Dr. Peterson!!!!
Your dedication to your craft is immense, along with your passion and steadfastness to HELP people understand the world around them, and what they can do to make their lives better! Wether it be starting with dragging the vacuum cleaner into the doorway of one’s disastrous room, or organizing themselves personally to go on to be hyper successful in life - your work has reached millions of people, AND HELPED THEM. I personally have benefited greatly from your work, and you and I have never once met in person. Thank you for your time and energy!
I think one thing that hasn’t been mentioned, is that while writing is an extremely important part of life. Our own *handwriting* is so very important in this digital age. It is a skill that has the potential to become obsolete over just a generation or two.
Isnt it amazing the fact that if you change your handwriting your personality changes too? Amazing!
God bless you Dr. Peterson , you will go down in history as a voice of light in a dark world.
Waiting for Professor Jordan to come to Oslo!
He is coming this summer, I’ve already bought my ticket
@@leonhorn7727 Yes, me too. :)
Omg, we are SO lucky to have access here to Reems of JP lectures that would cost tens of thousands of dollars in real University education that most of us would never have access to bc we don't have an IQ over 140..thus wouldn't be accepted to Harvard etc. THANKYOU JORDAN for your passion, & your deep love of humanity.
I love this compilation
I would be an excellent student if Dr Jordan Peterson was my teacher.
I always find myself in the flow state when consuming his lessons, which I hardly do when I was in school.
Thank you!
Thank you for posting this Doctor Perterson. I'm an author, writing my fantasy novel 'The Swords Of Damocles" It's helped keep me afloat during these tough times and has provided a great outlet for my emotions. Without it I would probably be dead right now.
'The sword of damocles' is a historical story. How can it your original book? Help me understand
@@rayhankhanoviee7001 the book is about an adventuring party named that. Yes it's named after the story Cicero wrote.
I can't understand how some people hate this magnificent man. Very profound lecture. Thank you Dr Jordan B. Peterson.
Thanks for your efforts and your input on things helps alot of people. Hats off to you!!

I so appreciate that Jordon Peterson cared enough to follow through thoroughly, carefully and responsibility with an open mind to make this correlation between literature, spiritually, truth and God. +E
What a great voice to wake up to
I am actually writing from my past at the moment and iam at page 100. Your works encourage me every day.
This should become English study standards in schools. It's interesting and most informative. Would have been handy back in the day.

Thank you Mr. Peterson. You're such a breath of fresh air in this society and I really love the deep thoughts your words and perspectives stir up in my brain with your talks. I'm very grateful for you 🙏🙌🥰🫶
You explain to me my own thoughts and ideas. It is truly uncanny.
I agree 100% it truley is uncanny.... and has happened over and over. In so many ways, and about so many different topics. It also makes me realize I am not strange, or alone...other people think like I do or have experienced these things. I am not abnormal.
Illuminating and insightful, Dr. Peterson!
I'd love to study in that online humanities university once it's up. Thank you, Dr. Peterson, for all you do to put excellent content online.

Some of the best advice I've received I wont go into here but for young folks and their concentration there's a critical element that society no longer pushes. Reading not a computer screen but printed words on paper. It exercises the brain. I was given this pearl by someone who archived two masters degrees.
Going to have to try this self authoring thing because let me tell ya, when I was young I had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up, now that I'm 28 I still have no idea what to pursue
Jordan I don’t think you will be reading this but I feel like you are the only Man in this planet. The “True man”. I will be following your footsteps for my entire life from now. Thanks man you saved me. I wish i could meet you once in my life.
I very recently had noticed that although i am a good writer, i have a real problem with generating a non fiction story of an event i created for a video. This is exactly what i needed to hear and see.
You have good faith in humanity thank you for your passion in us!
