It could be coincidence, but since I discovered Jordan Peterson i have quit a 15 year alcohol binge, enrolled at university to persue an engineering degree and joined the gym 😁
Congratulations and well done you bravo - I left a 18 year relationship and happy to be alive thank you Dr. P who appeared in my life after loosing my Father - keep doing you ✨
I watch him often bcz he gives great life lessons. One thing he always tells us is to have children because becoming a parent matures you to a great adult. To those of you who ended up taking different paths in life, you are worthy too. You are as significant as much as you make yourself so go forth, make great purpose in your life.
Some of us who didn’t have children invested in the lives of children as a volunteer coach or teacher or a Sunday School Teacher - i learned many things about children & how to deal with parents
I've learned to parent the child within, who never had parental figures to guide him in life. I don't agree with 1) contributing to human overpopulation, and 2) assuming the drastic & delicate responsibility of creating a life as motivation to change yourself. There's better ways to deal with the challenges of life; ways that don't risk you permanently balancing massive irresponsibility with personal-growth. As someone who had parents that weren't good & mature adults, I'd prefer to parent myself rather than irresponsibly create life & contribute to the increasing strain on our planet's very limited resources.
@fricative247 I beg to differ, I never said that those who have no children bear no responsibility. Furthermore, I said to 'go forth and make great purpose in your life'. For example, I have no children yet I bear the responsibility of serving others, this has been my lifelong career. Additionally, my elderly mother presently suffers from a disease there is no cure for, an added responsibily of mine. No, I am not young nor do I have children.
@@MaryMaaseWell 🤔 I beg to differ on that particular assumption because God is the author and finisher of our faith so why wouldn't you care about our Creator and take on a personal relationship with him and actively seek him yourself?
Even if u think it is too late , I’d rather living the next years of my life working on changing my life to the better , knowing that each day I’m making a change
I am a RN & my goal was to be the best I could be for my patients. To be compassionate and knowledgeable. I have always thirsted for knowledge. I loved my profession! ER-Trauma was my baby! ❤️ When I became disabled and I couldn’t work anymore I was devastated. Then it was bang ❗️ One thing after another! I couldn’t catch my breath nor adjust! My family who were always supportive didn’t understand. I was abandoned in so many ways. I grieved for 15years!! Finally I turned my life over to Jesus Christ & I was told I still had a purpose. Love others, be authentic, empathetic and compassionate. I became an intense & better version of myself because of all I have been & am still going through! I have Peace , Love ❤️ and Joy in my heart & I love others and I love being there for them ! I don’t consider myself better than anyone else but I know I have been mightily Blessed ❤️🥰😇😻
❤ this is awesome!! So happy to hear you are having a great life with Jesus!❤ would you pray for me? I'm where you were. 40 yrs in nursing and had to quit. Now, I need to get back to work. Grateful for my time off.
Jordan's point about goal-setting is so true when you observe the lives of celebrities or pro athletes after they retire. A lot of them that resort to hedonism are miserable inside despite having the lifestyle that most people could only fantasize about. 'Happiness' is such a short-sighted and naïve long-term outlook. Most of what we find meaningful and fulfilling in life involves overcoming hardship by sacrificing immediate delight for a greater potential future reward. A junkie is happy when they're indulging in their substance of choice until the dopamine high ends. People shouldn't be striving for happiness, they should be striving for purpose.
Maybe. Your should is yours. My purpose is mine. Getting there is often easier said than done which makes it worth it. Rationale of pleasure and suffering/sacrifice. Yes I will because it serves me and my future, and those around me I care about. No it doesn’t seem my purpose. Choose accordingly. Fate, free will and fulfillments begin simply with pleasure aka gratitude
A big part of me hates my life and wants it to be miserable. I can't seem to break through that happy of hating myself and everyone else for not being there for me or supporting me. I had horrible parents and can't stand the thought about fixing my life because i would have to actually take responsibility for myself. It's so frustrating trying to move forward
@@EvanWilliamGtry and have compassion for yourself. Your parents didn’t treat you right, notice how sad that is. Notice how fucked up what they did to you was, and when you can sit with those feelings and start to have compassion for yourself, especially your younger self, is when you may begin to move forward. Best of luck on your journey bro. Peace and blessings
@@biatae2713I couldn’t have said that any better myself bro. I had a somewhat fucked childhood and my parents were alcoholics. For a long time, I use to hate thinking about how growing up in that environment made me the way I was today and would always wish I could have just had happy parents like everyone else and be “normal” like them. That mindset really started dragging me down more and more as time went by, but eventually, I decided to finally change my mindset and acknowledge how fucked my childhood was and started accepting it for what it was. I started to embrace it and eventually became the best version of myself because of it and now im thankful for it and the person it made me today. I know I typed a lot it’s just I’ve noticed many ppl in the comments are looking for advice so I tried to give a short version of my experience on this topic.
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Oh I did suffer tremendously. But my suffering brought me to Jesus! Sometimes God has to break you to bring you to the Savior. Listen to this song by Danny Gokey “Masterpiece” Let me know what you think 🤔

You are one of my true heros Jordan, thank you for the positive impact you've had on me and the rest of the world. You are doing God's work, thank you. I'm looking forward to see you again in Vancouver!

Dr. Peterson, I admire you and your work. I especially admire your strength of character. I always think about what you would do in a situation. My conscience used to have my accent, but now it has a Canadian accent😅.
These types of videos really give meaning to life. JP is a man of his kind, the dad of people who are using this thing called the internet. I remember when I saw his videos for the first time; he really made me think of my life and the way I see things. I laid out my cards, and I started fixing things, one after another. Luckily, things started to unfold the way they should.
I use my trauma/negative emotions to fuel me to become better so that i will be different when it happens again or make sure that it doesn’t happen to people i love And I use positive emotions (excitement and proudness bc Im being better) and looking forward always for good things. I have metrics for myself, that i should be better than the yesterday me. The one thing that I dont do is compare myself to other people especially thos that belong to diff timeline than me

Highlights 00:00-03:12 🎯 The script encourages viewers to imagine the kind of life they would have if they could bear their suffering nobly and asks them to write about it for 15 minutes. 03:13-05:28 🤔 It suggests doing the exercise badly because visions and goals can change as one progresses through life, but it’s important to get a rough draft down. 05:29-07:44 😌 The script explores the concept of happiness and how it is often associated with avoiding excessive negative emotions and experiencing enthusiasm and forward movement. 07:45-10:35 🎯 It highlights the importance of setting goals and the link between positive emotions and goal pursuit. It also discusses the negative consequences of not pursuing goals and staying in a miserable situation. 10:36-13:20 😨 The script encourages facing fears and imagining the potential catastrophe of not taking action. It suggests using negative emotions as motivation to push forward. 13:21-15:00 😊 Positive emotions are discussed as the driving force behind motivation and concentration. The script compares the activation of the positive emotion system to the effects of drugs of abuse that stimulate the same system. Key Insights 🎯 Having a vision and goal in life is crucial for motivation and positive emotions. It gives a sense of purpose and direction. 🤔 It’s important to be flexible with visions and goals as they can change over time. The key is to have a rough draft and keep moving forward. 😌 Happiness is not just about avoiding negative emotions but also about experiencing enthusiasm and forward movement. 🎯 Setting goals is essential for positive emotions and motivation. Without a goal, confusion and anxiety arise. 😨 Facing fears and imagining the consequences of inaction can be powerful motivators for change. 😊 Positive emotions play a significant role in motivation and concentration. They make tasks easier to accomplish and provide a sense of fulfillment. 🎯 The positive emotion system is powerful, similar to the effects of drugs of abuse. It is activated in pursuit of goals and gives a sense of meaning and purpose.
Life is about compromise, it fails you, you adapt, if you flexible you ok, if not you will struggle. Free will is an illusion unless you are ready to perpetually cooperate.
You know Mr Peterson, I feel like aiming up is just part of it but having something meaningful is also really important. Because sometimes you might be productive but no meaningful purpose. It's like having art without soul.
Go to a dictionary. I’m showing my age here! Lol Anyway I love learning & if I hear new words I have a thirst for what they mean. It also improves my vocabulary!❤️
People who tell the truth with as much kindness as possibible and you are allowed to be as genuine and creative as your potential allows and more, plus contribute without being hindered.
Thank you for being the father figure I never knew I needed, guiding me with wisdom from afar. Has anyone else found an unexpected mentor online? Let’s share how they’ve impacted our lives!
Jordan Peterson gets through to me. When he speaks I agree with that factually and logically. When i first heard have talked about having a goal and how it creates positive emotion I was blown away. Having goals and meeting them build the dopamine in your brain more and more and it stays there as the baseline. This is the real way out of depression by doing things we have proven that raise the baseline of dopamine in our brains. Things like goals, exercising, eating right the gut brain connection with good gut biome and excellent blood flow rom a healthy heart to feed the brain and body oxygenated blood.
"I just want to be happy" I am so glad I did not listen to this in 2022 bc I would have thought just being happy is unrealistic. It is possible to just be happy. Change the inner emotion to peace and happiness no more depression and anxiety. It is absolutely possible I did it.
Humanness thrives on challenge. Being rewarded for providing is a primal joy. Find your limits and push past them. Open up the best version of yourself and treat yourself like someone you love.
Brother, think about your passion. Think about the whys's. Think about your change of narrative, think Bout your focus. Think about the fog. You're a prophet protected by the creator of this universe. Bless you. Consider this . Thanks bro. I love you bro.
One of the life questions never asked is , when all is well with your life , you have a loving wife lovely children and content with work , but still there feels like something is missing something is trying to pull you astray , I think that’s where the I just want to be happy thing comes from , how to remain content with a good life
Thank you for being here sir, everytime listening you enlightens me more than before and this one is one of those that I will have to re-watch and absorb it thoroughly
This video is great and very useful, be sure to watch until the end. The summary of several books is hidden in this video, this video is worth watching several times 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️🌹❤️🌹
Your positive emotions are associated with moving forward. Happiness is in the pursuit of a goal and not the goal itself. No goal, no positive emotions. No goal means confusion. Confusion means anxiety and dread. Life without a goal is confusion and hopeless. Develop a goal in
I'm truly grateful for the invaluable insights shared. The author's honesty and wisdom are both eye-opening and inspiring. It's a reminder to embrace life's lessons and make the most of every moment. Thank you to the author for imparting such valuable knowledge.
Love this video. I am just a parent for the 1st time, so I could collect and fix my way day by day because any step I go through will bring a story or a lesson for my child, even though how it badly
Dear respected Jordan, this is God asked me sending for you and you would know that but I have taken my God teacher is very good and made many samples and explained that the words how to used too thank you very much, my teacher is a great teacher indeed.

Right on point
You know Mr Peterson, I feel like aiming up is just part of it but having something meaningful is also really important. Because sometimes you might be productive but no meaningful purpose. It's like having art without soul.
Jordan we need you desperately ❤The voice of reason ❤
Everytime I listen to Peterson he always have so many new words which I hear for the first time 😅👍
Go to a dictionary. I’m showing my age here! Lol Anyway I love learning & if I hear new words I have a thirst for what they mean. It also improves my vocabulary!❤️
Thanks to you i am working ass a hypnose&Regression therapist. Thank you ❤ Judith from the Netherlands

Saw him live a few weeks ago in Richmond Va . Was exactly like the YT videos you see, with out missing a beat. Thank you Dr. Peterson
Thank you very much for this video. It changed my day for the better.
Jordan Peterson gets through to me. When he speaks I agree with that factually and logically. When i first heard have talked about having a goal and how it creates positive emotion I was blown away. Having goals and meeting them build the dopamine in your brain more and more and it stays there as the baseline. This is the real way out of depression by doing things we have proven that raise the baseline of dopamine in our brains. Things like goals, exercising, eating right the gut brain connection with good gut biome and excellent blood flow rom a healthy heart to feed the brain and body oxygenated blood.
"I just want to be happy" I am so glad I did not listen to this in 2022 bc I would have thought just being happy is unrealistic. It is possible to just be happy. Change the inner emotion to peace and happiness no more depression and anxiety. It is absolutely possible I did it.
7:57. Good time stamp to watch and rewatch and rewatch.
Thank you DR. Peterson!!!!
Brilliant and truthful explanation. Powerful

Thank you for your dedication, you are great.
One of the life questions never asked is , when all is well with your life , you have a loving wife lovely children and content with work , but still there feels like something is missing something is trying to pull you astray , I think that’s where the I just want to be happy thing comes from , how to remain content with a good life
Perhaps because internal friction provides an opportunity for growth which is uncomfortable?!
Unresolved wounds. Lying to self about any number of things.
Being happy is the journey, always. And the destination is the carrot on the stick 😆

Your positive emotions are associated with moving forward.
Happiness is in the pursuit of a goal and not the goal itself.
No goal, no positive emotions. No goal means confusion. Confusion means anxiety and dread. Life without a goal is confusion and hopeless.
