Hah, ty very much :)
Exactly: Jordan Peterson + Skyrim = instant click
Do you get to the Cloud District very often?
I love cleaning my room. Also I take cold showers every day now and listen to my conscience. I procrastinate way less and am much more disciplined and goal oriented and connected to my masculinity. Thanks Peterson for being the father I needed.
Many channels have this vid but this one has the best thumbnail.

Cleaning your room is also a good place to start when you are inert, especially from depression. You can have at least SOME sphere of influence in which to work, which slowly chips away at the inertia, and can grow larger incrementally over time.
Truest words there.
Cleaning up your room means two things mainly: 1) structuring your environment by yourself (which will make you feel less powerless), 2) getting rid of ballast (essentially setting you more free). What many people do not realize is how material stuff restrains their freedom to go anywhere and do anything a great deal.
Yep. Plus when cleaning your room and getting rid of old crap has a feeling of letting go of your past, which helps shift your vision into the future and not be stuck into your old self, what you didn't do and other negative feelings.
I'm a messy person. Because of JBP I'm cleaning my room more often than before and it works for me. I'm still far from being an orderly person but when I tidy up my room a little my mind immediately starts working better
Great to hear :) It has helped me a lot too
Clean up your dragon, slay the girl and win the room!
For some reason that also makes sense...
@@papermachevolcano1480 Of course. You have to clean the dragon, so the girl won't be suspicious. You use the dragon to slay her and thus you win her room.
Not sure if this is in line with Jordan Peterson's teachings, though...
Your 'dragon' may be metaphorically interpreted as the chaos in your life, and by cleaning it, you can 'win' your room (order is rewarding as a prize might be) and also 'slay' the girl if you know what I mean ;)
Recently discovered this man. I Definitely liked his teachings and the way he talks, very talented.
Known Only me desculpe meu jovi, mas meu ingrêis não é perfeito
My room is clean, in terms of everything being put away. But I'm not totally organized, at least as not as organized as I could be. Thanks for inspiring me to try to be a better person, husband, father, son and sibling.
Before I heard his explanation here I understood it a bit different, as we say in German, "Fege zuerst vor Deiner eigenen Tuer." What means, sweep in front of your own door first, before you tell others what to do. And I agree with this. If everybody would do so, everything would be "clean".
Das ist übrigens ein ursprünglich mexikanischen Sprichwort
My house is always a mess but my closets are always organised! I never understood why this was the case with me. And I have a lot of clothes. After this video a kind of explanation came into my mind. My closet is the connection between me and the outside world. And I'm always presentable and I always put my happy persona when I'm outside. But on the inside. Oh man the inside it's like the rest of my home. Hell. Unorganized, confused.
I admire the way you think. “My closet is the connection between me and the outside world.”
You're damn honest. Chapeau ...
This is exactly what J. Peterson is trying to generate in his viewers. I am always happy to hear when people set up their room.
Introspection, your own self-awareness and implementation of these small steps towards discipline helped you establish an objective connection to your subjective well being. You brought Order in Chaos.
@@shadywaitamin2409 but I'm talking about my closets only. It was always for me this way.
@@migenanikdhima8971 Try reading what I wrote again.
The closet is a part of the room of your house. You keeping your cabinets organized is one small sub-conscious step towards getting the entire house in order.
I LOVE listening to this. I’ve heard it several times and it hits me like a nail every time. I feel like he is speaking to me directly. Thank you Jordan.
One of the most tiresome things I can imagine in the terms of demotivation in families - and one or two times I experienced it from my family - is that when one person wants to do something good (for entire group) and the other persons marginalise it, and demotivate it, and create problems out of it even before the person who get the idea formulate all the plan they already formulate all the obstacles you can see :( They beheve as if doing a good things was disturbing their peace or disturbing their lazyness or their not caring to do anything creative - some ppl think that all their home needs is their earnings, and thats all to do with home and with kids :) One or two times I felt as if my family did not liked the idea that I m going to do smt good. Like some of my family did not liked the idea that I will take some responsibility and creativeness and I will be doing smt for the profit of the group (my group). Its like some kind of jealousy or smt ? Its like I sometimes felt demotivation from my family or ignoring of my ideas about improvements of our home and family. And its like as if they knew that the idea was good but marginalised and ridiculed and ignored it still as if they were afraid of them praising this idea. For them they better like the idea of me in need of being taken care of by them and that way listen to them obviously which they expect all the time, and they marginalise my ideas about my own input to household to improve it for all group.
I just love this analogy!! He’s the best. 🙏🏻
Lmao at that thumbnail 😂😂😂
Oh Jordan spot on with this, I started cleaning my room when I was a kid and boy did my family make me suffer and they just kept at it!
Good for you! Sad for such people in your family. Hoping you are stronger and more purposeful because of it.
I think you have experienced it so badly and there is so conviction in your voice, Professor !!! Really true understanding, especially in this science oriented era, you indulge in religion as well as philosophy, too......
my mother was lawyer and she educated me in how to have order in the office. she always got piles of papers but every pile was about different topic - civil cases, criminal cases - and different time. like finished cases, new cases etc...
Love those thumbnails
I started to clean my room as he started talking about cleaning your room.
Jordan saved my life !
Thank Goodness for People Like JP to Uplift Us! And Give us All Hope! We should have been taught this in 1st Grade.
Cleaning the room(s), decluttering etc. is cleaning/decluttering the heart & mind.
Very thought provoking

this channel has the best thumbnails ever as of rickesh singh's thoughts in october 2022
He’s just a brilliant man. Period. What a MIND he has! Brilliant!
I never heard him explain it completely. I always thought it was just a jumping off point to do more important tasks and give you a taste of accomplishments. But instead of jumping off of cleaning your room, he tries everything back to it. This task also reveals that in order to perfect one things you have to improve almost everything. Reminds me of the Bible verse that talks about how if a person commits one sin they commit them all.
Finally !!! ♦Jordan hit the magic word !!! 🎯 THE *_THE_* key to it *all* !!! ♦ 5:25
I always assumed the point of 'clean your room' was that an organized room generally leads to a more organized mind
Dude these thumbnails are amazing

my clothes are arranged such way that the ones to wear at home - old flannel shirts and tracksuits and sweaters - are in a wardrobe in a room while the ones to wear outside - to be seen in them in profesional manner, what I call "office suits" - are in a wardrobe near the main entrance to my house.
Thank you for using a Skyrim background for the thumbnail.
I used to worked in toxic enviroment. My room is the only place I missed everytime I went from work. I always keep it as a place where I can live in peace after being emotionally abused all day at work... My room is a place where I can control, I put flowers, I organized my room and cleaned it frequently...that is how I managed to woke up fresh every morning, knowing thay I always have a place to habe some peace.
Roughly Speaking.

FANTASTIC THUMBNAIL XD
Pure gold!
Very powerful. I started cleaning after years of meditation. And Lord did I have an awakening. I started ordering everything. I made a clothing capsule. Give all my old clothes away started attracting new clothes. I cleaned op and reorganized every space. I took my pillows and started buying pillowcases that are smaller then my actual pillowcases (makes you look richer). I attracted a free chair, cleaned my ceilings, painted my doorknobs etc. Cleaned up my kitchen and realized I had similar utensils (amazing). And then I started outside. I have a parkinglot and started talking to my landlord (he gave me a terraschairs and tabld). Started talking to my neighbours. And now we are going to buy a swimming pool.And now I'm invited for a trip in his cabriolet . 2 months folks, amazing. I feel rich and I'm not. Clean up your room.
Damn these thumbnails are just getting better and better every time
That skyrim thumbnail tho hahahahahha
How you do one thing, is how you do anything.
Wow, agree.
Exactly!
Genius ❤️🔥🙏🏻
VERY SMART WAY TO TELL...IF U WANT TO CHANGE THE WORLD....START FROM UR ROOM!!!
That was hitting the nail on the head. Yes and families have little devils acting as siblings or parents. LOL
What happens if you do not have a room? Homelessness and dysfunctional relationships often dictate that people do not have a room to themselves. Some peoples lives are dominated by their lack of a private space.
Doesn't have to be a whole room. A friend of mine in a troubled marriage claimed an abandoned pottery shed for her own things. She cleaned and repaired it and made it her own. But then her husband decided he needed that space too to keep his empty paint cans, and her treasured items were soon jumbled and covered in paint. She left him soon after that final invasion of her privacy.
I’ve always clean up my room but after hearing this I know now that my room will remain “dirty” until I’m able to figure out what to do with myself & how to get out, if this made any sense.
As this is very related to the video and Dr. Peterson's approach to self-improvement, I would like to let you know that he developed the online program “Self Authoring” bit.ly/SelfAuthoring that helps you to analyze your past, to get your present life in order and to identify a more rewarding path for your future. It’s not free, but it has been proven to work in studies performed with university students. (Sorry, I make this sound like some toothpaste ad).

Psyche Matters I love the guy but ... if I haf the money to spend on this shit I wouldn't need advices but just a strong kick in the butt ... As always every patreon seems to give birth to more paid services.
A gsrantee of quality? Imagine google , youtube or wikipedia if it was a paid service. A shame.
Love the thumbnail

Cleaning your house/room really is the BEST first step. Improving you living conditions flawlessly ties in with improving your well being.
Ok I got that down the best of my ability and it helped me to some extent. What’s next?
You should come and see my breezehome,neat and organized with my kid Lucia and my dog
my mom is excited i watched this vid
That thumbnail picture! "Oh mein Gott!" - I actually said that out loud.
greatest thumbnail
Wow , reminds me of Carl Jung.
So glad to find him.

My like is most of all for the thumbnail
of all of this... I hadnt considered my family's impact on me fixing up my room... hm.
Ive adjusted my habits to fit the wants of other people in the house. To an unhealthy degree I think. I guess I have some stuff to rethink about this concept.
Like the Skyrim reference!
I'm a thoughtful, deep, and articulate person. However, I must be a total simpleton when it comes to psychological effects. Meaning, my subconscious must be more of an insulator than a conductor.
For, to suggest my subconscious makes an association between my room and the outside world is, as far as I can tell, simply untrue.
However, I'm not disagreeing with Dr. Peterson, for I DO SEE value in cleaning my room, or my car, or whatever. The state of the environment we spend time in has an impact on us, and reflects our inner-most self.

A great metaforical story, which many smash in the heads of those trying to do it different, than those with a need to smash others with it............... Which have caused many to instead of doing something different than the "normalnorm" in new ways, to just give up.
Cause smashing others with the bad stuff (what you dont do the "right way") some think they do, by organising things differently, isnt good enough, for the rigid "normnormal" smashers.
Wise man, if one just listen to some of what he says metaforicly its really great, but most people pick out things and screw them to what he not says, and sometimes, he says things, not either he, can-would, see beyond his own cultural belongings.
Metaphorical
@@kritikitti3868 Yeah that is the pefect word in english ;) english aint my native language. Thanks for the help with spelling ;)
So that why you better not work in your room
i am just going to live in a tent sounds a a lot easier
Ive struggled with depression n truth is i let my life spiral n my room at times is a disgrace
DUH!

Does this also refer to people who are _not_ control freaks?
✔👍
Chaos ≠ evil
Taken from someone in this comment section:
You now have the decision to make, clean your room, or don't. Only you can make this decision.
Okay dude sheesh, I'll clean my room.
Just clean your damn room. hahahaha
These are all esoteric occult techniques and they are brilliant and they work. They have nothing to do with modern science which has dismissed everything ancient and occult related quite unscientifically and without proper research.
Endeuvarch as I said. I have some videos in my channel re such topics and 250 plus unique videos I’ve gathered over the years in my science and occult playlist. These are 4000 year old ancient sciences mainstream media likes to filter out of modern life for all sorts of unscientific reasons. Scientists want to claim it as their own, religions want to omit them from history, and such.
Endeuvarch reality is quantum physics. What you see if what you create and what you create is what you see. As above so below principal is the core to this understanding. Modern way of explaining this is simulation/ matrix theories etc.
Endeuvarch honestly not going to lower myself to your level. Enjoy your ignorant default program.
Endeuvarch I have plenty of videos about people like you. Drop more fancy terminologies. Won’t change the reality about you. You don’t even know the extent of how much you don’t know yet you have the audacity to comment on such topics. I’m truly amazed after 6 years of research on astrology and occult, thousands of data points and plots, researching and collaboration using super computation. with data scientists and others and working on a book re scientific aspects of such topics. You honestly can’t even comprehend people in my level. Buzz off.
Skyrim ❤️
Yea prof I still wont do it
do it
Problamy the only person on earth that can tell me to clean my room and therefore be ready to fight the devils in my family that might go back a looong time. AND having me agreeing with him.. Like wtf
The clickbait but i understand the lectures
did homie just reference fma
It's a ritual , it's an opportunity to
Unify mind , body , spirit.
Is the thumbnail a screenshot from Skyrim? WTF?
This is SUCH a basic truth. You can’t shine like the jewel you are if you’re sat smothered in a cowpat...
DAMN!!!
I know IIIIII DOOOOOO KNOOOOOW . . .
It easyer to burn it down to the ground than clean it boy!!! :/ :/ :/
How about; "keep your room clean and Clean up our side (though we are only there 1x/month) too and pay all our utility bills (even if we know you do not make full use of everything and the house does not belong to you). Also, you cannot have another dog, nor can you cook fish or anything else that may 'stink' in the kitchen, can't wear shoes in your casita, you are not allowed to have any friends over, Clean and flush our toilets once a week, remove a cup of ice everyday from the refrigerator, don't forget to take out the garbage, among any other incruing housekeeping responsibilities they can toss my way to shorten my free time. Since I've moved to Nevada my freedom is cycling; Since October of 2021 to the here and now, I have had only two opportunities to ride my bike?????? I live in a wealthy community who bluntly expressed that after they met me, they did not accept my presence. Just Awful; I understand why wealthy people LIVE IN GATED COMMUNITIES...the snobs and hypocrites they actually are; go figure!
💥So what he's saying is..♥⬇
🔥 Ephesians 5:15-17 🔥
So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. 16 Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. 17 Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.
The devils in your house go back generations.
im searchimg for more details. do you know any?

The downvoters all have messy rooms
And it's like... God it's so sad, these Dovhakin that never grew up ya know. I tell them: "CLEAN YOUR BREEZEHOME, CLEAN YOUR BREEZEHOME" because they need that order in their life, roughly speaking. And so the Dovhakin in his... his post anarchic nihilism attempts to get his companion to clean up the home and that's a bad idea buddy, a bloody bad idea...
Awesomnarabota
Is he ok?Hes genius but he’s definitely going through it
Skyrim lmao
Jordan makes the point that God only knows what you need to fix up your room, (mind set) and this is true, and only by surrendering all to God, and living in his divine will can you over come the complexities of your inner self and cope with those around you.
It is a growing process, But as it says in the Our Father prayer thy will be done, it is only by trying to live in God's will that we become truly free. I guess a simple analogy would be that of traffic lights, we know that stopping at red avoids danger and therefore allows freedom to move on the road, same with living in the Divine will. If everyone was living by the ten commandments anyone could go out for a walk at 3 am in the morning knowing they'd be perfectly safe.
@Nuclear Confusion No, start reading the greats like Thomas Aquinas, he knows more about human nature then any modern philosopher. It's obvious to me from listening to Jordan Peterson he believes in God, and I think he strongly leans on Catholicism. Anyway, take care.
@Nuclear Confusion I get it, anything ancient is for ignorant fools, so i'm just wondering why with all are technology we have today we still haven't fathomed how they built the pyramids or how Micheal Angelo created his paints for Sistine Chapel, and how the image on the shroud of Turin was created, the list goes on and on.
@Nuclear Confusion All the best.
