Hey Jordan Peterson! I'm 16 almost 17 and my dad absolutely loves you. He thinks your an amazing man and has raised me and my little brother on alot of your principles. He's bought your books, watched your videos, uses analogies you have made, and talks about you quite a bit. I was just thinking that it would be an amazing Father's Day gift for him to see even just a comment of you thanking him and congratulating him for being a great father.

Single living in the Australian outback ... simplicity, no covid. some hardship and loneliness. Jordan continues to be my mental stimulation, my mentor and my friend I am forever grateful to you and this amazing technology.

Watching your videos, nearly religiously over the last two years has certainly saved me from making the worst of choices. Yesterday was the first day I was happy to be alive.
Hi, happy to hear you’re doing well. Although I agree with most of the things Dr. Peterson says, i do caution you of following his words too much. As much as we can learn from him i think it’s important to stay skeptical of some things.
I said sorry to a girl in school for a thing I did, I was being bullied and took it out on her, she doesn't even know what I did when I apologised but I was so glad I did 💞🌻
Currently reading Jocko Willinks book on leadership after he talk to JP. Already recognized most of the principles which feels pretty good although it's always nice to get a streamlined overview to stay focussed.
“I better not ever be able to tell that you have been using something. Because if i can tell then you cant handle it And that means that you’re not doing it appropriately.” 19:04 That’s golden.
Dr. Peterson is invaluable. I hope the younger generations will aspire to be like him and from many, perhaps a few will emerge. Every generation needs a Jordan Peterson.
As uncomfortable and scary as it was in the beginning, I found that telling the truth gave me a sense of freedom and courage that filled my soul like nothing else did.
“Above all, do not lie to yourself. A man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point where he does not discern any truth either in himself or anywhere around him, and thus falls into disrespect towards himself and others. Not respecting anyone, he ceases to love, and having no love, he gives himself up to passions and coarse pleasures in order to occupy and amuse himself, and in his vices reaches complete beastiality, and it all comes form lying continually to others and himself. A man who lies to himself is often the first to take offense. it sometimes feels very good to take offense, doesn't it? And surely he knows that no one has offended him, and that he himself has invented the offense and told lies just for the beauty of it, that he has exaggerated for the sake of effect, that he has picked up on a word and made a mountain out of a pea--he knows all of that, and still he is the first to take offense, he likes feeling offended, it gives him great pleasure, and thus he reaches the point of real hostility...'" --Fyodor Dostoeyvsky
@@johnjordan3552 lol Feminists LOVE it. It gives the illusion of moral superiority, attempts to force the other into apology, making them less than. That's why the list of micro-aggressions gets ever-longer. They get to giddy-up on their high-horses and ride!
Mr Peterson, Your thoughts have had a profound effect across the western world and beyond. Keep up your good work. You’ve given me an understanding of some of the madness that’s going on in this world and allowed me to connect the dots. I want to thank you (deeply) for this. If I could, I’d give you a big hug and tell you I love you and call you brother. Thanks for everything.
Jordan there's probably no chance in hell you'll ever read this, but I just wanted to tell you that you inspire to me work harder and be my best self. Lately, you've been in my head, specifically this quote: "you have no idea how efficient, efficient people can be." I am eternally grateful for your wisdom.
I constantly find myself re-watching your videos, I can't seem to stop taking 10 steps back every 5 steps forward. Maybe I'm missing a step along the way but thank you sir for sharing your knowledge for free.
I cherish every utterance you make, Dr Jordan Peterson. Your existence in this world, makes it a less lonely place. Thank You from the bottom of my heart.
In 2019 i went into a huge depression. I would say it stemmed from my young confusion of the value and point of life. Dr. Peterson became my answer to all my faults. His bluntness that we love so much was just what I needed. Truth is beautiful
It’s not “like” - it IS having him. It’s not any less helpful because it helps many. Count your selves blessed. He IS a gift. Ignore him at your own demise.
If any Human needs a quack like Peterson they are a futile experiment of life. Everything one needs is inside them. Tap into it. Why would anyone need to get into someone else's head? Are folks so fragile they can't use introspection or self-evaluation to navigate the planet? Give me a break! There are severe mental conditions. No doubt. But whiners who are baffled by life's swings are seeking validation from others to bolster their self-worth. Pitiful!
I learned too late in my life the meaning of the phrase, “if you don’t know what you don’t know and that you don’t know that”…… the question is what happens with your life. This is something I’ve reflected on many times with my choices in my career. We wind up with regret. I found myself many times telling myself if I’d have known what I know now I would have done things differently. I’m convinced I would have been much happier with my life and my career. The worst choice was thinking I could do it all by myself and my talent. I later wished I’d have had a mentor. It’s something I should have looked for while in school, but my ego stopped that.
This is like listening to an honest and trusted friend when you need them most. TY VERY much for taking the time and effort for giving us advice Mr.Peterson. I won't go into specifics but I think I can can try to get back on track to where I want to be with some of your gems. Thx again from London : ]
After years of being at what I believe to be my rock bottom, Jordan Peterson is the one person who can say something and have it actually resonate with me. Thank you Jordan and may I get my hands on your book one day.
Dear Jordan. You probably won't see this, but I just really want to thank you for being one of the few individuals who acts in accordance with truth. Oftentimes I am moved to tears, simply by the way you conduct yourself in the presence of those who are hostile towards the goodness in you. You are the salt of the earth; an honest man, with a sincere heart. You will never know how much you've touched my life, and that of my family's. Thank you for all you do.
You're like the father many of us never had. I'm sure I'm not the first one to say this but it's true nonetheless. I deeply admire your wisdom and I wish you all the best, both to you and your family!
I'm so happy I found Dr. Peterson's lectures a few years ago and I changed a lot as a person (complete with a drastic change in personality after retaking a few personality tests to compare my self now vs 3-5 years ago). I went from being an office worker to a business owner and executive for another one because I used opportunity (opportunities I saw previously as impossible or not even a remote possibility for me) to force myself to grow. I treated my 'greatest good' as helping as many people help themselves through the business I set up, from 5 people on staff I now have almost 50 (after 1.5 years) that I can confidently say I'm giving steady, well paying employment to and that in turn helps their families... and everyday its a challenge because part of that responsibility is so many more people are relying on my competency to keep the ship afloat and on course so to speak.
Jordan dude from the bottom of my aching heart I am so grateful for your content, I am a person who gets mixed up alot in seeing things all good or all bad despite kind of knowing that it isnt the case, as you said ive been "throwing the baby out with the bath water" in an effort to try make sense of myself and others around me, I find myself shifting between seeing myself as wrong, others right and vice versa, I realise that its about being more attentive, a good deed is a a good deed and the more that it is selfless the better, in a world full of muck you really are a diamond, like a second father, thank you
It’s not kinda not knowing, you absolutely know it’s not the case. Examine why you might not be really really sure about that. When you are more sure about yourself what you project will be more colorful and less black and white!

I'm a 25 years old guy living alone and just working by this COVID days. I'm very pleased to at least have Jordan by the weekends and at night, would be too lonely otherwise.
Luiz, where are you that people are still self isolating? You shouldn’t be alone. Get out there and risk like our friend in these videos says. Nothing to lose, but time, Luiz. Confíame.
It is good to suit your own comfort level. If you are isolating on that level and not insane you are likely introverted. It will be good for you to meet up with a friend in RL once in a while.
What a tremendous value this man is imposing in the community across the world. So selfless in everything he attaches himself to. Pleasure to have found this man!
Fiction that helped me: The Screwtape Letters by C.S Lewis Outwitting The Devil by Napoleon Hill Reading this fiction helps to internalize self awareness, which may counteract self deception if you are ready for it. Once you are closer to the personal truth of self awareness or are psychologically mature, then reading a variety of philosophy may allow you to develop a more sussinct personal philosophy. More importantly..... everything the good Dr. just spoke about. 😃
On the saving your father bit. I remembered in one of your lectures you said to "aim to be the kind of person you can depend on at his father's funeral ". I didn't realize how quickly I would need that advise. When my father passed away 6 weeks ago. I was able to help with most the arrangements myself. I reminded everyone of my dad's sense of humor, the stories he would tell, and at my mother's request I gave my dad's memorial talk. The memorial was streamed via Zoom to 285 homes, with an average of 3 people per house hold we were looking at well over 800 virtual attendants. I have been inundated by my father's personal friends thanking me for capturing and displaying the essence of who their friend was. My family seems to have grown closer. Thank you for the advise Dr Peterson, it really helped. It did come at a sacrifice. I am now hours away from surgery. The stress of the matter left me with some ailmants that will need to be removed surgically. But the peace I was able to contribute to is well worth it and I am in good spirits knowing I did all I can as a son Thank you again

Thank you tremendously for your q&a segments. I'm 67 years in life and your segments, as well as your classes and lectures have given me great joy in understanding more about life and encourages me toward more optimism and striving to greater responsibilities. Many of your sessions like this one have answered my questions as well. Thank you for being there to teach and guide all of us seekers of truth.
The portion of this video where you address the writer's concern about being lost in the past really resonated with me. I look back to the past all the time, with heartache and nostalgia. I'm going to implement the same advice you gave the writer. Thank you.
These new videos contain much of the wisdom from prior to the hospitalizations but with a lighter, more relaxed element and some new perspectives and variations of old ideas. Very cool!
I did not think that I could love this man more. But when he just spoke about his children perhaps witnessing an occasion all puff off of the peace pipe by him and his wife, my heart expanded even more for Jordan. As always doctor Peterson thank you for sharing your wisdom with those of us who grew up without fathers.
Thank you for existing, Dr. Peterson. ❤️ I'm not the one for cheesy compliments but you truly have saved my life. It's awfully great to have an internet dad who understands your struggles, appreciates your efforts and helps you get better at facing the harsh struggles of life every single day. Thank you for everything.
In my view, You are a treasure, not just for Canada but for the whole world. The way You are makes me glorify and praise God more and more for this wonderment called Life. May God Bless You and Protect You Dr. Petetson and your family. - From Saudi Arabia
Happy Fathers Day, Doctor Peterson. I can honestly say u have given me the father figure I never had and for that I shall be eternally grateful. God Bless you Jordan.
At 48:22 you said "People aren't afraid of death as much as not living enough" and that is so true. Reminds me of the saying from the movie Braveheart "Every man dies, not every man truly lives."
43:53 this "acute awareness of our own faults" hit close to home. Especially when I pray before God for others, I alway ask for mercy and forgiveness for me first because of this accute awareness that sin still resides within me. Thank you, it helped me place this in the right and healthy perspective. God bless.

Your lectures...years ago fell n my lap in the middle of my darkest place in meth addiction. Your break down of the bible and articulation of each of the staple stories in the good, yet (altered) book has made tangible some how what i never thought could be. You helped me to want to seek out Truth especially biblical truth, to fill n the answers to my ???'s and to inspire a new kind of recovery ministry style now that im sober Many blessings to you and i pray you never lose the passion to touch on truth and the human condition as yrs go on. " Enlightening" doesnt begin to describe your work. ✌🤗😉🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💪✌
Jordan, you are a warrior, don't forget that warriors also need breaks. You've taken a brutal beating and exactly because you are brave and strong, you need to take care of yourself. You help a lot of people but don't let it be your downfall, let your family also take care of you. I know you know this but a reminder is never bad.
@Bryan Matthews I don’t even partake in the stuff, but when he was referencing how he approached the subject in parenting, I realized I’ve implemented the same approach and I’m of the same mindset. I felt instant relief, knowing if I’m doing some of the same as Dr Peterson, I’m not a complete f&@k up as a mother!

I've just begun to read your book: 12 Rules For Life, and I am teary already within the Overture. Why? Because you speak in such a way that reminds me of good conversation, good listening, a good meal. In the 2nd half of my life, I remember a boy who would sit with me, during lunch, both of us squeezed onto a small wash of light from the skylight, at centre stage. An old auditorium with velvet curtains and the smell of dust, situated in a place that was one of the most psychologically dangerous spaces, high school. My quirky friend would propose good questions, and we would wrestle with the answers over PB & J. Let the world open again to both good questions and the suffering of learning. Thank you in advance Jordan for all your work.
Dear Dr Peterson, thank you as always for these messages, I am 53 now and perhaps thirty years ago started noticing and meeting people who spoke with thought and clarity and candour and was impressed by them and hope I was able to take on those behaviours. I hope that many will hear and learn from your suggested considerations on self-deception. Thank you.
Thanks Dr. Peterson. I listen to your message almost every. You gave me a hope for the world out there who listens to your message. We need you and I am blessed having you appeared on the TH-cam videos. God bless you and praying for your health continue stronger each day.❤️🙏
The self is deception . Any action from that awareness is conflict. S. Selfish deception E. Egotistical deception L.Lonely deception F Frightened deception
Indeed. Although I thought the "F" stood for something else. lol I find it amusing browsing the self-help section and all those titles about finding your "true self". Seems a lot like an oxymoron to me. I don't tend to seek morons, especially when they are oxy. It does bring to mind one of my favorite Buddhist sayings though. "The ox is slow, but the Earth is patient."

Most of these questions I've been torn by myself, so thank you for answering them! You might be glad to hear that I've just overcome one of my greatest long-standing self-deceptions the other day. It involved rejection, yes as well as facing and letting go of my past. It devestated and flattened me...for around 12 hours. Then the next day realized that I grew so much more than I lost as a result of it, I was blown away. I've gained self-respect as a result of walking towards my fear, and freedom to build a life and set goals and plans that are based on truth, not fantasies. All this, because I faced a thing I've been terrified of for years. I can only recommend (with due consideration but not too much overthinking) that everyone facing similar issues do the same. Needless to say you're one of the people who greatly influenced me in the direction of this achievement as well as my ability to deal with its fallout so again, thank you!
I don't think you'll ever read this but just incase. I'm finally clean and sober after 11 years of hell. Please never stop doing what you do. You helped save me. You're my other Dad lol

Watching your videos, nearly religiously over the last two years has certainly saved me from making the worst of choices. Yesterday was the first day I was happy to be alive.
Though this form hasn't seen yours, know that you are loved in the deepest depths of my heart
@@Zosmos Thank you! I sincerely appreciate what you have said.
I'm happy that you're alive ❤
Hi, happy to hear you’re doing well. Although I agree with most of the things Dr. Peterson says, i do caution you of following his words too much. As much as we can learn from him i think it’s important to stay skeptical of some things.
@@why7387 like what
While the country is losing its 💩, its really nice to have JBP back. He elevates the level of every conversation he takes part in🌟😊💗
Damn right👏
All we need are weekly doses of JBP & Dr. John Campbell.
I said sorry to a girl in school for a thing I did, I was being bullied and took it out on her, she doesn't even know what I did when I apologised but I was so glad I did 💞🌻
These QnA’s are a blessing. It feels as if Dr. Peterson is actually my therapist.
I have to say that he tried to remains general and this doesn't make for an actual therapy session. But this is gold
Anyone else feel proud of themselves when JP says something that you had already been thinking?
Makes me feel chuffed.
Currently reading Jocko Willinks book on leadership after he talk to JP. Already recognized most of the principles which feels pretty good although it's always nice to get a streamlined overview to stay focussed.
Yes!! *brushes shoulder off
Not proud, happy I’m not alone with my thoughts in this crazy world.
This Q&A series should be at least bi-monthly. 🥇
Mr Jordan Peterson returning to guide and teach is a blessing to us all. Be Well Mr Peterson and Thank You.

Loadiiiiing!!!!
Isn't it a joy to see him looking so well. The world feels a much brighter and more hopeful place with him in it.
Are you kidding? He's over 9000!!!
“I better not ever be able to tell that you have been using something. Because if i can tell then you cant handle it And that means that you’re not doing it appropriately.” 19:04
That’s golden.
Dr. Peterson is invaluable. I hope the younger generations will aspire to be like him and from many, perhaps a few will emerge. Every generation needs a Jordan Peterson.
Happy Juneteenth
Born after 2000 and I am so happy I’ve found this wisdom at the beginning of my life
@@dans2971 where did you hear that?!....
@Brendan Gavaghan well, stop pretending your confederate flag means anything

As uncomfortable and scary as it was in the beginning, I found that telling the truth gave me a sense of freedom and courage that filled my soul like nothing else did.
You got it. 😇
“Above all, do not lie to yourself. A man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point where he does not discern any truth either in himself or anywhere around him, and thus falls into disrespect towards himself and others. Not respecting anyone, he ceases to love, and having no love, he gives himself up to passions and coarse pleasures in order to occupy and amuse himself, and in his vices reaches complete beastiality, and it all comes form lying continually to others and himself. A man who lies to himself is often the first to take offense. it sometimes feels very good to take offense, doesn't it? And surely he knows that no one has offended him, and that he himself has invented the offense and told lies just for the beauty of it, that he has exaggerated for the sake of effect, that he has picked up on a word and made a mountain out of a pea--he knows all of that, and still he is the first to take offense, he likes feeling offended, it gives him great pleasure, and thus he reaches the point of real hostility...'"
--Fyodor Dostoeyvsky
Excellent work good sir

@@johnjordan3552 lol Feminists LOVE it. It gives the illusion of moral superiority, attempts to force the other into apology, making them less than. That's why the list of micro-aggressions gets ever-longer. They get to giddy-up on their high-horses and ride!
@@johnjordan3552 I hope you are trolling on both your points. I really do
I’ve had a person like this in my life. Worst thing that ever happened to me
Mr Peterson,
Your thoughts have had a profound effect across the western world and beyond. Keep up your good work. You’ve given me an understanding of some of the madness that’s going on in this world and allowed me to connect the dots. I want to thank you (deeply) for this. If I could, I’d give you a big hug and tell you I love you and call you brother. Thanks for everything.
Jordan there's probably no chance in hell you'll ever read this, but I just wanted to tell you that you inspire to me work harder and be my best self. Lately, you've been in my head, specifically this quote: "you have no idea how efficient, efficient people can be." I am eternally grateful for your wisdom.
I constantly find myself re-watching your videos, I can't seem to stop taking 10 steps back every 5 steps forward. Maybe I'm missing a step along the way but thank you sir for sharing your knowledge for free.
Your words help me so much. It’s hard to express how much. All I can say is, “Thank you!” from the bottom of my heart.
Keep up the good fight Laura!
I cherish every utterance you make, Dr Jordan Peterson. Your existence in this world, makes it a less lonely place. Thank You from the bottom of my heart.
In 2019 i went into a huge depression. I would say it stemmed from my young confusion of the value and point of life. Dr. Peterson became my answer to all my faults. His bluntness that we love so much was just what I needed. Truth is beautiful
" *He who has not received the love of truth will be deceived* "
I'm just gonna leave this quote here for those to whom that would make sense
These are a bit like having DR JORDAN PETERSON..... as your personal therapist. How crazy is that?!
Or an antidote to crazy? lol
Extremely Crazy! Get a life!
It is wonderful
It’s not “like” - it IS having him. It’s not any less helpful because it helps many. Count your selves blessed. He IS a gift. Ignore him at your own demise.
If any Human needs a quack like Peterson they are a futile experiment of life. Everything one needs is inside them.
Tap into it. Why would anyone need to get into someone else's head? Are folks so fragile they can't use introspection or self-evaluation to navigate the planet? Give me a break!
There are severe mental conditions. No doubt. But whiners who are baffled by life's swings are seeking validation from others to bolster their self-worth. Pitiful!
I learned too late in my life the meaning of the phrase, “if you don’t know what you don’t know and that you don’t know that”…… the question is what happens with your life. This is something I’ve reflected on many times with my choices in my career. We wind up with regret. I found myself many times telling myself if I’d have known what I know now I would have done things differently. I’m convinced I would have been much happier with my life and my career. The worst choice was thinking I could do it all by myself and my talent. I later wished I’d have had a mentor. It’s something I should have looked for while in school, but my ego stopped that.
Living in truth requires a lot of courage. Be brave.
This is like listening to an honest and trusted friend when you need them most.
TY VERY much for taking the time and effort for giving us advice Mr.Peterson.
I won't go into specifics but I think I can can try to get back on track to where I want to be with some of your gems. Thx again from London : ]
Jordan please don’t stop doing the Q and A series. One of my favourite things you do
Dr Peterson, thank you very much! If it wasn't for your talks lately, I don't know...! God bless! ❤️🙏🏼
After years of being at what I believe to be my rock bottom, Jordan Peterson is the one person who can say something and have it actually resonate with me. Thank you Jordan and may I get my hands on your book one day.
Dear Jordan. You probably won't see this, but I just really want to thank you for being one of the few individuals who acts in accordance with truth. Oftentimes I am moved to tears, simply by the way you conduct yourself in the presence of those who are hostile towards the goodness in you. You are the salt of the earth; an honest man, with a sincere heart. You will never know how much you've touched my life, and that of my family's. Thank you for all you do.
You're like the father many of us never had. I'm sure I'm not the first one to say this but it's true nonetheless. I deeply admire your wisdom and I wish you all the best, both to you and your family!
I'm so happy I found Dr. Peterson's lectures a few years ago and I changed a lot as a person (complete with a drastic change in personality after retaking a few personality tests to compare my self now vs 3-5 years ago). I went from being an office worker to a business owner and executive for another one because I used opportunity (opportunities I saw previously as impossible or not even a remote possibility for me) to force myself to grow. I treated my 'greatest good' as helping as many people help themselves through the business I set up, from 5 people on staff I now have almost 50 (after 1.5 years) that I can confidently say I'm giving steady, well paying employment to and that in turn helps their families... and everyday its a challenge because part of that responsibility is so many more people are relying on my competency to keep the ship afloat and on course so to speak.
Great! Start your own TH-cam channel help people
Jordan dude from the bottom of my aching heart I am so grateful for your content, I am a person who gets mixed up alot in seeing things all good or all bad despite kind of knowing that it isnt the case, as you said ive been "throwing the baby out with the bath water" in an effort to try make sense of myself and others around me, I find myself shifting between seeing myself as wrong, others right and vice versa, I realise that its about being more attentive, a good deed is a a good deed and the more that it is selfless the better, in a world full of muck you really are a diamond, like a second father, thank you
It’s not kinda not knowing, you absolutely know it’s not the case. Examine why you might not be really really sure about that.
When you are more sure about yourself what you project will be more colorful and less black and white!
So grateful for this - can you people see and hear this? Q&A by Jordan B. Peterson himself. Hour and a half filled with gems 💎
Thank you for this Q/A Dr. Peterson. It's a real and true joy for us to see you smile while teaching us.

I'm a 25 years old guy living alone and just working by this COVID days. I'm very pleased to at least have Jordan by the weekends and at night, would be too lonely otherwise.
Luiz, where are you that people are still self isolating? You shouldn’t be alone. Get out there and risk like our friend in these videos says. Nothing to lose, but time, Luiz. Confíame.
Awesome, Stay in touch with us Luiz!
There’s groups on Fb mate. Look for local park gatherings. Must be stuff where you can get out and meet people mate don’t isolate yourself too much x
It is good to suit your own comfort level. If you are isolating on that level and not insane you are likely introverted. It will be good for you to meet up with a friend in RL once in a while.
Hang in there man! Better days ahead, and remember to clean your room!
What a tremendous value this man is imposing in the community across the world. So selfless in everything he attaches himself to. Pleasure to have found this man!
Fiction that helped me:
The Screwtape Letters by C.S Lewis
Outwitting The Devil by Napoleon Hill
Reading this fiction helps to internalize self awareness, which may counteract self deception if you are ready for it.
Once you are closer to the personal truth of self awareness or are psychologically mature, then reading a variety of philosophy may allow you to develop a more sussinct personal philosophy.
More importantly..... everything the good Dr. just spoke about. 😃
Very helpful!!!
@@j_freed agreed 👍, when well written even fiction can be truer than true.
On the saving your father bit.
I remembered in one of your lectures you said to "aim to be the kind of person you can depend on at his father's funeral ". I didn't realize how quickly I would need that advise. When my father passed away 6 weeks ago. I was able to help with most the arrangements myself. I reminded everyone of my dad's sense of humor, the stories he would tell, and at my mother's request I gave my dad's memorial talk. The memorial was streamed via Zoom to 285 homes, with an average of 3 people per house hold we were looking at well over 800 virtual attendants. I have been inundated by my father's personal friends thanking me for capturing and displaying the essence of who their friend was. My family seems to have grown closer.
Thank you for the advise Dr Peterson, it really helped.
It did come at a sacrifice. I am now hours away from surgery. The stress of the matter left me with some ailmants that will need to be removed surgically. But the peace I was able to contribute to is well worth it and I am in good spirits knowing I did all I can as a son
Thank you again

The portion of this video where you address the writer's concern about being lost in the past really resonated with me. I look back to the past all the time, with heartache and nostalgia. I'm going to implement the same advice you gave the writer. Thank you.
Rekindle your relationship with the divine father; relationship with the culture around you. 💪
Dr. Peterson.....you have no idea how much you change my life....every single time I listen to you. Stay well. You look good!

Your wise words have been an inspiration to me, personally.
Onward, upward!
"Happy Father's Day Jordan" (smiles & hug) Thank You for thinking about us on this week-end.
These new videos contain much of the wisdom from prior to the hospitalizations but with a lighter, more relaxed element and some new perspectives and variations of old ideas. Very cool!
I did not think that I could love this man more. But when he just spoke about his children perhaps witnessing an occasion all puff off of the peace pipe by him and his wife, my heart expanded even more for Jordan. As always doctor Peterson thank you for sharing your wisdom with those of us who grew up without fathers.
"A more common worry could hardly be identified."
Thanks again, Jordan.
Thank you for existing, Dr. Peterson. ❤️ I'm not the one for cheesy compliments but you truly have saved my life. It's awfully great to have an internet dad who understands your struggles, appreciates your efforts and helps you get better at facing the harsh struggles of life every single day. Thank you for everything.
Glad you’re back doc. The more people that learn to think the better things will get
My sentiments exactly. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
In my view, You are a treasure, not just for Canada but for the whole world. The way You are makes me glorify and praise God more and more for this wonderment called Life. May God Bless You and Protect You Dr. Petetson and your family.

At 48:22 you said "People aren't afraid of death as much as not living enough" and that is so true. Reminds me of the saying from the movie Braveheart "Every man dies, not every man truly lives."
43:53 this "acute awareness of our own faults" hit close to home.

Your lectures...years ago fell n my lap in the middle of my darkest place in meth addiction. Your break down of the bible and articulation of each of the staple stories in the good, yet (altered) book has made tangible some how what i never thought could be. You helped me to want to seek out Truth especially biblical truth, to fill n the answers to my ???'s and to inspire a new kind of recovery ministry style now that im sober Many blessings to you and i pray you never lose the passion to touch on truth and the human condition as yrs go on.

These Qs are all relatable to everyone to varying degrees, and hes basically giving free therapy sessions to the masses😂
Jordan, you are a warrior, don't forget that warriors also need breaks. You've taken a brutal beating and exactly because you are brave and strong, you need to take care of yourself. You help a lot of people but don't let it be your downfall, let your family also take care of you. I know you know this but a reminder is never bad.

@Bryan Matthews I don’t even partake in the stuff, but when he was referencing how he approached the subject in parenting, I realized I’ve implemented the same approach and I’m of the same mindset. I felt instant relief, knowing if I’m doing some of the same as Dr Peterson, I’m not a complete f&@k up as a mother!

Remember the pain he was/is experiencing from his illnesses. It’s no secret the healing calming of nervous system under that influence. Just to balance the view on that issue.
I've just begun to read your book: 12 Rules For Life, and I am teary already within the Overture. Why? Because you speak in such a way that reminds me of good conversation, good listening, a good meal. In the 2nd half of my life, I remember a boy who would sit with me, during lunch, both of us squeezed onto a small wash of light from the skylight, at centre stage. An old auditorium with velvet curtains and the smell of dust, situated in a place that was one of the most psychologically dangerous spaces, high school. My quirky friend would propose good questions, and we would wrestle with the answers over PB & J. Let the world open again to both good questions and the suffering of learning. Thank you in advance Jordan for all your work.
Just amazing to hear that level of coherence.
Dear Dr Peterson, thank you as always for these messages, I am 53 now and perhaps thirty years ago started noticing and meeting people who spoke with thought and clarity and candour and was impressed by them and hope I was able to take on those behaviours. I hope that many will hear and learn from your suggested considerations on self-deception. Thank you.
Happy Father's Day Dr. Peterson.
Thanks Dr. Peterson. I listen to your message almost every. You gave me a hope for the world out there who listens to your message.

To tell people to " get out of my face" .... laughing priceless.
Thank you Jordan for your strength and leadership. Your example has made me be vocal and not afraid of standing for the truth
The self is deception . Any action from that awareness is conflict.
S. Selfish deception
E. Egotistical deception
L.Lonely deception
F Frightened deception
Indeed. Although I thought the "F" stood for something else. lol
I find it amusing browsing the self-help section and all those titles about finding your "true self". Seems a lot like an oxymoron to me. I don't tend to seek morons, especially when they are oxy.
It does bring to mind one of my favorite Buddhist sayings though.
"The ox is slow, but the Earth is patient."

Great opportunity for Dr. Peterson to talk/think himself through a major self obstacle.

Thank You Jordan for taking the time to answer questions!
Most of these questions I've been torn by myself, so thank you for answering them! You might be glad to hear that I've just overcome one of my greatest long-standing self-deceptions the other day.
It involved rejection, yes as well as facing and letting go of my past. It devestated and flattened me...for around 12 hours. Then the next day realized that I grew so much more than I lost as a result of it, I was blown away.
I've gained self-respect as a result of walking towards my fear, and freedom to build a life and set goals and plans that are based on truth, not fantasies.
All this, because I faced a thing I've been terrified of for years. I can only recommend (with due consideration but not too much overthinking) that everyone facing similar issues do the same. Needless to say you're one of the people who greatly influenced me in the direction of this achievement as well as my ability to deal with its fallout so again, thank you!
I don't think you'll ever read this but just incase. I'm finally clean and sober after 11 years of hell. Please never stop doing what you do. You helped save me.
