    Every time my life is a mess of anxiety and depression, and the usual external stimuli, like gaming and binge-watching, no longer help with keeping the chaos at bay, I feel subconciously drawn to Peterson's lectures, and it almost always makes me feel a little bit better. What he explains in this one has kinda made me understand why that is. Chaos is the multiplicity that emerges out of the collapse of the simplicity of order. The salvation from chaos is order.

    "Don't make a habit of pursuing things that aren't good for you." That's where willpower and self-restraint come in. I think a lot of people inherently know that falling prey to a certain temptation will send their life on a downward spiral, yet they'll indulge in it anyway to satisfy their momentary urges. And that's especially true if someone happens to be in a heightened emotional state.

The true purpose of communication, to come together in understanding. So much "communication" in today's society is not with the goal to commune at all but to serve a selfish narrative. That is part and parcel contributing to the societal concerns JP is alluding to in this talk.

Dr. Peterson has opened doors from day one to expand my knowledge, sparking a whole new level... I want to know more of what he has to offer. I admit, I'm looking up. And because I'm walking into uncharted waters, it gives me a lot of anxiety, feeling brand new.

With love this person you are describing doesnt really exist we all have blind spots and we have things to learn from most anyone, I'm happy Jordan is resonating he's a force of good! Peace.

    I want to share with you what can be another source of anxiety. I had repressed my emotional reaction to an event that happened in my childhood. Within the repressed feelings, was a deep sense of shame and humiliation as well as a deep sense of hopelessness. That’s why I repressed it. After these feelings emerged in therapy, and I had a ‘now I know what happened’ sort of moment, my anxiety reduced by about 25%. Before, there were always negative feelings about myself that in one way or another informed almost everything I did and everyone I dealt with. Having these real but repressed negative emotions can contribute to anxiety and tension associated with keeping these emotions at bay, or let’s say out of your awareness

      Then in that case, that kind of anxiety can be replaced with hope. Remember your idealization may not be the right ideal (I do not mean because it is too high). Then remember you are who you are, you can't live life as someone else. Then be at peace and pray and hope that you will continue to reach closer and closer to the ideal, bit by bit, day by day. Then forget about it and just live life without explicit comparison with the ideal in the moment. Rather, examine your day each night before bed and allow for grace and then resolve to be even better tomorrow.

      What if I fail? What if it doesn't work? What if something-another happens? What if the same thing that's happened before happens again?
      I'm just a peasant, but my opinion is that your brain is basically trying to ensure simplicity (maintain order) by predicting a variety of possible negative outcomes and strategizing to avoid them, and those negative outcomes are more than likely prioritized in a list from most to least likely. The irony is this process induces the anxious psychological state, which may cause things to go awry, like a self-fulfilling prophecy.
      In short, you can be anxious about the potential to be made anxious. If you've been seriously anxious before, you may be "anxious" to never go through that again. But since it's not possible to ensure the future beyond a 99% guarantee, you either have to learn acceptance (I've done all that I reasonably can), or the anxiety will prevent you from taking action.

    Your anxiety is telling you to get some serious exercise some time during the week. Try to not become stressed as often as possible, and try to work off your stress in the gym or on the footpath or around the track or on the basketball court.

      @@tarico4436 I didn't know Stephen Hawking could exercise, (that's what you and I were originally talking about), and I never said I don't get out in the world. (???) Not everyone can take a brisk 5 mile walk though, (what I would consider exercise), or even a 1 mile walk. That was the point of my response. I get out plenty but I wouldn't consider that exercise, which is what you originally said relieves stress. I'm not confined to a chair yet but I can't do any of the things you mentioned to relieve stress. And I'm not alone. But there are many other ways to deal with stress besides exercise - which is very good, don't get me wrong. But if you can't "get some serious exercise", you can relieve your stress in other ways. 25 years with chronic PTSD has taught me a few things about the human mind and emotions.

      @@snakeinthegrass7443 Great comment. Thank you. Many pros say do something active or take some pill to relieve the stress. I'm different than that in that I say don't induce the stress in the first place.......... that's #1.
      But if you find yourself inducing stress because of your spouse or your job or for whatever reason, then try to reduce it. With alcohol? Well, not to excess, but a little here and there is healthy. With prescription drugs? I am against that. But I know there are many who find themselves taking those pills, and they have doctors suggesting/prescribing those pills, and I just think if they vigorously exercised as if their life depended on it, many might get that stress relief that they so dearly needed.
      Looks like Hawking could barely move his neck. But he was married. Rumor has it he was so active his wife complained of him abusing her.
      I mention getting out in the world because there is a stationary bicycle at my gym. And I hate it. I much prefer riding my bicycle among all sorts of others. Some get on my case from the luxury of their motorized killing machines. Then I pedal away from them. Then others seem to be wearing strange looks on their faces when I'm near them on the bicycle/foot path. All of this weird stuff is so much different than the dreary boredom of pedaling in the gym. There is a sort of "do or become unalive" factor out there in the word, bicycling, too: it's if I get a flat tire 8 miles away from home, I can't just get off that stationary bicycle and zip home. Nope. I have to walk those 8 miles in the hot humid sun; this happened three weeks ago; found out I don't do enough walking; I was super sore for like 3 days after that walk.
      But anyway, the above paragraph is all about relieving stress, and it's sort of like how we relieved stress a million years ago: by running away from those lions, tigers and bears.

It's not addressed enough to make a Difference and is very serious after the 20 years war. As Some Men go on and on , becoming Stronger , others need help to put themselves together . And what helps them is the Unity Narrative ,, Shared experience, Outdoor Activities, Networking together , Resources , and Guidance advice.

    Probably the best video I have seen from J. Peterson, but these are also many questions. Dopamine increases in pathways where the brain predicts more energy-efficient actions. However, this pathway appears to be obstructed. What transpires when I attain the Optimize State, having maximized energy efficiency? Should I enstablish new goals and proceed in discarding previous accomplishments? Is it necessary for everything in my life to remain interconnected? How will I ascertain this to devise a final plan? If I am unable to create a final plan, will negative emotions inevitably emerge to redirect me? What actions should I take before these emotions are so intense that recovery becomes challenging?

Of course there are those who can live fine with a flat and plain rational explanation for the world, and think there's no reason to suffer and find any meaning, and that the world is the way it is, end of story. Great for them. There are many thinkers, philosophers, smart individuals for them.
    But, at least lately I feel like there's not many thinkers that speak about feelings, emotions, connection, meaning. (I had to read Foucault and Terry Eagleton in college, that should count as torture lol). I'm so glad I have the chance to hear JP talk❤

      They take that line of thought because they are entitled, insecure & lack accountability.
      Of course some things just are. But those things are much more rare than most want to admit.
      For instance, murder. Murders don't just make THEMSELVES happen. So murders are not things that just are.
      Somewhere, in each instance of murder, someone made a willful choice. And that choice came from somewhere broken & twisted within the murderer.
      For those plain thinkers, I'd suggest they want the dopamine rush of feeling like they understand something without paying the price that comes with that understanding in order to cut corners, bc they fear the unknown as well as what they cannot control.
      They oversimplify things bc they cannot cope with the reality that most things are beyond their mortal grasp.
      So they ignore complications in order to pretend things are always"simple" to pretend they have more of a grasp on things than they really do/are willing to admit.
      It's all bells & whisles. So, in many ways, oversimplification (quite ironically) actually complicates most things even further for themselves, & from there, others.
      Yes, with some things, "It is what it is" does absolutely apply.
      But most things occur is bc we humans make choices that bring about consequences that can complicate things that should be simple.
