Why? He is a fkin brainwashing expert. Fkin gen z, the dumbest brainwashed generation of all time are lapping it up (unsurprisingly). Peterson's talks are all about conformity and compliance. Fk u. Have this from the realists and nihilists 🖕

This man over here taught me about life in hours of videos more than my parents and my whole family ever did in 26 years, and I fucking mean it. I'm just understading now that the value my life has is only up to my decision and no one else. He made me understand the importance of being the best version of myself I can be. So don't change, rather improve! Don't sacrifice yourself for those ones who want you different from what you really are.
Good on you man. You're spot on with everything you just said. Choose the right kind of sacrifice for yourself and become the best you can possibly be. My advice to you is just like JP, aim at the highest possible good like becoming a Doctor and you'll become a much happier and fulfilled person. Living up to your highest values and highest standards will bring out the very best in you and everyone around you. Take quick notice when you are feeling down, sluggish or you're not moving forward. Force yourself back on your feet and push yourself forward by any means necessary. Never let your focus turn inwards, keep it OUTWARDS on other people at all times, and keep the initiative. You'll become the ultimate world-beater that nobody wants to mess with. No joke man, you can do this and it will be ALL worth it! The end justifies the means. Remember that!
My time at home was horrible but the only thing I did really respect about my parents is that I could swear on my own life that they would never divorce. Besides that my upbringing was a trauma in my perspective lol
@Jacky Not at all, Jacky. Your focus turns inwards when you focus on your own negative thoughts and emotions, and that's why you suffer. You need to realize that nobody out there cares how you feel or think, so you might as well just try to stay positive. This is easier when you keep your focus outwards, away from yourself, your own thoughts, and your emotions. If you have a job, then it's easier because you will keep yourself occupied with work. If not, then there are numerous other ways to keep your focus outwards, like working on your own projects, start your own business, start a blog, write and share articles, do volunteer work, work out, hang out with friends and family, create something unique and exciting, help someone nearby etc. You don't have to do these things to keep the focus outwards but it definitely helps. I often sit around doing almost nothing but still manage to not get caught up in my own mind and emotions. Whenever I get a feeling that happens, I automatically force it away. Don't know about your mental health but if you've been through stuff in life you alone can't handle, then I would also suggest to go see a therapist. I did once, and it's no shame in it. In either case, also always remember to not take anything personal in life. You meet plenty of people in life and they all have their own view and perspective on the world that does not necessarily match with your own. What somebody else says or does is all about them, not you. You will find out pretty quickly that life becomes much more calm and peaceful if you just stay indifferent to whatever outcome you might encounter. You must keep yourself free, independent, self-reliant, and never be bound to anything or anyone. Master yourself and you will go far in life.
You must have never had a really good teacher. Peterson is probably completely average in my experience. He teaches at a big U, but guess what, Drs. of Philosophy are available at local community college every bit as good and maybe better. I urge anyone who thinks Peterson is the end-all, be-all, to take a risk on some real college classes
Elite244 I have gone to university and taken philosophy and the prof wasn't remotely as good as Dr. Pedersen. The fact is that Dr. Pedersen has risen to the pinnacle of prominence in this field is an indication of his high level of competence. It is a meritocracy of competence in the world and in acedemia; where the best rise to the top. Since Dr. Pedersen has risen to the top and not any other professor of philosophy, it is clear and plain logic; that Dr. Petersen is the best or among the best in his field in order to rise to the top of that field in what is a meritocracy. Therefore, your unwarranted criticism and denigration of Dr. Petersen; when compared to others in his field, is without merit.
Northstar 17 Good comparison, just like Michael Jordan was the best when he played...Jordan Pedersen is the best at what he does. This is clearly true, as shown by the fact that they have both risen to the top, in what is a hierarchy of meritocracy.
In the majority of the video's I've watched nearly everyone is paying attention and all computers aren't on instagram/reddit/whatever. That's how you know he's a good teacher. Or the university has a super anal internet filter, either one.
If he wasn't a good teacher, would he sell out places as he does? I have seen him live and the audience listened in rapt silence for 2 hours. This answers the question on whether he is an excellent teacher or not.
Having Dr. Peterson as a prof has been life-changing. He rose to fame in a time in which the modern world needs people like him the most. I recently wrote a spoken word on my channel with a lot of his teachings and philosophies. I think we need to spread his message as much as we can in order to redirect our collective mindset. Thank you for all you do Dr. Peterson.
I think there is something in the universe going on that, when people on earth needs someone to show them the way, or when something goes off to balance, like when people lean on one side more, then a man/woman shows up and guides the people. It was always like this in history. I believe that man has this power to guide people to the more balanced and more healthy side of humanity.
I'm a single parent of a two-year-old just starting a commitment to my personal and career growth and I'm willing to go 180-degree turn for it. You, sir, are saving my life one lecture at a time.
"The answer to the problem of humanity is the integrity of the individual." In other words, quit worrying about what other people are doing and worry about what YOU are doing.
BRILLIANT and encouraging. I love this man. Dr Peterson, you always say 90 something % of your viewers/ fans are men. I’m very much a woman and I think I’ve watched every one of your TH-cam videos and I’ve learned so much from your wisdom and insight. Thank you!
Honestly the man really does think about a lot of stuff and tries to dissect them so he can figure out why it is the way that it is or why people react the way they do to problems. I learned to really think like this a bit back in high school on my own by accident in a period that was hard on me and during college when I had one math professor who honestly is one of the best teachers I had. He always showed us why certain math formulas make sense and didn't just give us the formula and say, "okay to calculate this, use this formula". In elementary and high school, it was usually that way for us but in college it just made knowing what to do even easier. He would literally just go in detail with us about why solving and using certain equations this way made sense and he would even do it the reverse way so we would see how the numbers always add up since math is just very fluid that way and that is one reason he loves the subject.
Omg I cannot believe I was just able to listen to that free thinking speach for free on my phone in my tent away camping at a time in my life where I’m pulling myself apart and trying to leave the dead wood behind and rebuilding myself into my truest self. I am blessed. Thank you Dr Peterson and the inventors of every bit of technology that just made that possible.
"the power of the spoken word is now more powerful than the written word" ...As pointed out by Professor Peterson in his interview with Joe Rogan and here is a perfect example. We are living in a time of worldwide transformation. Technology has made it easy to capture a live lecture in front of a tiny audience and beam it across the world to billions of people resulting in a change of life trajectories. I need so much improvement it has nearly killed me just to look at it all after hitting rock bottom. The undeniably profound yet reasonable wisdom Peterson has pursued not only to attain but feed back to us in earnest diligence has affected my frame of thought and offered me for the first time in my entire life; hope for a meaning and solution to my own unbearable suffering. I would have never come up with this stuff on my own, and that is the gift. THANK YOU PROFESSOR PETERSON. My kids will be learning from you, too.
That was so beautiful to hear you say about this. Such an awesome thank you from a deep part of you...wow! You are truly blessed with your gift now. ♥️♥️♥️♥️😊
I love this break down, it’s one of the reasons I got a dog while being depressed, because taking on more responsibility forces you to get out and explore life a little more, knowing that your life affects another and something relies on you :)
Yes, I truly believe that having that responsibility of caring for something or someone else especially because you care and love them makes you want to be better. It gives you something to look forward, something to better yourself for. Be careful for and caring for someone is a great honor and something so beautiful in life.
My dog has saved my life over and over. There have been so many times I was depressed and the only thing keeping me from going to a suicidal place was the idea that I had to be there for my dog. But I am very afraid of how I am going to feel and what I am going to do when he inevitably passes.
Hard to see this as a Psychology class and not a Philosophy class. All he says is very philosophical, yet connects back to Psychology. He is on point and wish I had him for Psychology I at my college.
I don't know your situatuon but instead of lessening the load maybe Try to focus on a different responsibility perhaps. Somthing that your naturally attuned to. Somthing that you care about and love or are pasionate about. The load of responsibility feels much lighter when it's what drives you.

Jordan Peterson’s words save lives. His decades of ingenious thinking and working things out have allowed him to become the most inspirational speaker I have encountered to date. Well done Mr Peterson, your hard work and dedication has paid off in more ways than even you can fathom. Peace and respect. ✌️ ✊

Dr. Peterson is one of those people whose words ring so true you feel like you know him deeply in person even if you've only listened to a single online lecture of his. He tells you the truth- no matter how daunting it may be- but he does it in a empathetic, non-judgmental way.
I can’t imagine how amazing it would be to have this man in a lecture and learning from him. I don’t know how if these students know how lucky they are.
This is always a favorite and it never gets old, and I have not grown tired of this very important foundational idea. I’m going to start every 2019 summer day with this moving authentic premise.
A brilliant teacher, goes straight for the jugular of life. Straightforward and correct. Life is a miracle in motion all the time and it is our individual responsibility to choose an attitude of questioning our personal behaviours for the best outcome for all of us. Thank you Dr. Peterson!
Ive heard JP articulate this many times in a few different ways and I think this is one of the accessible and concise ways he's packaged this idea. Good stuff.
This is seriously the most motivating and hope-inspiring video I’ve ever seen. Been watching it any time I need a reminder of the big picture and grounding. 🙏🏻
Starbat I’m new to his work, can you show me an example of an SJW misrepresenting him that you think fits? I’ve had SJWs as friends in the past, and I’m looking to hit some of their ideals with the biggest hammer I can find, alongside as all other information/perspective I come across.
Watch his interview with Cathy Newman. See how she constantly tries to frame his views as being other than what they are, so that she can pretend to criticize him by criticizing a blatant strawman. It's a thing to observe. It's like she only hears every other word he says. Mainstream media coverage of the aftermath of that interview only talks about how Cathy Newman was "threatened" on social media, with the implication that Peterson and/or his followers are somehow innately toxic; completely ignoring the fact that the backlash was due to how obtuse and confrontational she was in the interview, and how she made no attempt at actual understanding of his positions. Also check out his interview on Vice. It was a similar situation of misrepresentation. th-cam.com/video/blTglME9rvQ/w-d-xo.html
Don't resent. Resentment is never good my friend. I don't mean to preach here, but I think love really is the answer. Don't love them if you can't, but at least have a place for a little mercy in your heart. Some of them might be well-intentioned but delusional, or ignorant, or some may have been fed fake news, etc. Hatred is not the answer. Love is. I think I understand where you're coming from but I'd try to do this if you really cared for this subject: Be a good example. Make yourself the best you can be. Be more elocuent and control your temper impecably. Learn how to debate, exchange ideas without the intent of defeating your "opponent", but rather humbly show them a better way. All of this is easier said than done, but I think they make sense..
This snippet has the power and wisdom to cause a psychic shift that permanently changes many peoples lives. Giving people meaning or the promise of meaning is everything and I wish every single man on earth was like him!
This is so crazy it feels like my dad has figured out life, he always says “I’m going to be a good person no matter what” “it’s about who you are going to be” he lives by phrases like “a job worth doing is worth doing well” and he does his best at work everyday and is such an honest person. He is naturally very smart too math comes easy to him he always says he has photographic memory. I feel like he is such a rare human lmao
But remember also, J.P says himself, doing something 'badly' at first and making mistakes still beats the hell out of doing nothing 😉. Your Dad sounds ace!
I’ve had so many teachers jn my life, yet none of them ever spoke words of wisdom like this. If only one teacher would have told me this when I was a struggling adolescent it would have given me so much clarity and motivation to spend a bit more time on my homework. His students are so lucky to have him as their teacher.
i could comment this under every single lecture i see from him. He is the most important person/thing i have ever come across in my life. I genuinely can't even begin to fathom in what ways this person has influenced my future.
This man..This man!!! The depth of his knowledge and the way he executes it, his unselfishly teaching. I literally listen to him at work, home and in my car on max volume because it that deep to me. It’s therapy&knowledge.
I stopped procrastinating to the point where I neglected my hygiene and I do my jobs earlier than everyone around me. Thanks jordan, he motivates me to improve myself. He's an inspiration. I don't like those who try to glorify jordan's every word because that's not the point. The point is to better yourself each day and no one in this generation has said it so eloquiently as he did.
I also came to the same conclusion some time ago that the meaning of Life is Life itself, or the living in it. That has held me steady in my bad times.
Thank you for teaching me that living in this world can be so damn hard. It has honestly started to make me become more compassionate of myself and also of others. 😊 Thank you so much Jordan Peterson, you really are constantly changing lives, including mine.
Years ago, there could be possible no one i could consider a real teacher. Dissapointment on myself and on humanity was overwhelming. I found this "Petersonwave" in the Internet, so it was hard to trust in the content of his lectures. I tested his rules. My nihilist self is getting weaker every day, still it await to emerge just in case discipline wores off. Battle is daily, that's a thing no one should ever forget.

On every lecture of Dr. Peterson, I pause at one moment and then start doing neglected house chores.
This is such a fact lol
😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍
😅😂 But that's actually a good idea
I listen to his lectures while I fold laundry. It's my least favorite chore, but he helps me 'get my life in order'.
Having Dr. Peterson as a prof has been life-changing. He rose to fame in a time in which the modern world needs people like him the most. I recently wrote a spoken word on my channel with a lot of his teachings and philosophies. I think we need to spread his message as much as we can in order to redirect our collective mindset. Thank you for all you do Dr. Peterson.
I think there is something in the universe going on that, when people on earth needs someone to show them the way, or when something goes off to balance, like when people lean on one side more, then a man/woman shows up and guides the people. It was always like this in history. I believe that man has this power to guide people to the more balanced and more healthy side of humanity.
But also read Friedrich Nietzsche for a much more firm foundation! He's Peterson's Hammer
when the pupil is ready, the teacher will appear

Everybody should hear it...kids in this clasroom are blessed...what a teacher!..what a message!, stuff like that it's truly priceless.
I'm a single parent of a two-year-old just starting a commitment to my personal and career growth and I'm willing to go 180-degree turn for it. You, sir, are saving my life one lecture at a time.

"The answer to the problem of humanity is the integrity of the individual." In other words, quit worrying about what other people are doing and worry about what YOU are doing.
100%!
Makes a great deal of sense
Right on brother ☺️👌💐
Become the best man or woman you can be by striving to fulfill your full potential by any means necessary. Then reap all the glory :)

BRILLIANT and encouraging. I love this man. Dr Peterson, you always say 90 something % of your viewers/ fans are men. I’m very much a woman and I think I’ve watched every one of your TH-cam videos and I’ve learned so much from your wisdom and insight. Thank you!
He is genius I wish more ppl thought the way he does
Yayyy
Same
I have no idea when I started watching JBP, but I'm going to guess at least 4 years ago and also seen most of his lectures.
Honestly the man really does think about a lot of stuff and tries to dissect them so he can figure out why it is the way that it is or why people react the way they do to problems. I learned to really think like this a bit back in high school on my own by accident in a period that was hard on me and during college when I had one math professor who honestly is one of the best teachers I had. He always showed us why certain math formulas make sense and didn't just give us the formula and say, "okay to calculate this, use this formula". In elementary and high school, it was usually that way for us but in college it just made knowing what to do even easier. He would literally just go in detail with us about why solving and using certain equations this way made sense and he would even do it the reverse way so we would see how the numbers always add up since math is just very fluid that way and that is one reason he loves the subject.
This whole speech should be written down and given to every individual
Thank you for sharing

Omg I cannot believe I was just able to listen to that free thinking speach for free on my phone in my tent away camping at a time in my life where I’m pulling myself apart and trying to leave the dead wood behind and rebuilding myself into my truest self. I am blessed.
Thank you Dr Peterson and the inventors of every bit of technology that just made that possible.
this lecture is so deep the class is silent. i wonder if they realize the blessings they receive in his class, i sure do.
"the power of the spoken word is now more powerful than the written word"
...As pointed out by Professor Peterson in his interview with Joe Rogan and here is a perfect example. We are living in a time of worldwide transformation. Technology has made it easy to capture a live lecture in front of a tiny audience and beam it across the world to billions of people resulting in a change of life trajectories. I need so much improvement it has nearly killed me just to look at it all after hitting rock bottom. The undeniably profound yet reasonable wisdom Peterson has pursued not only to attain but feed back to us in earnest diligence has affected my frame of thought and offered me for the first time in my entire life; hope for a meaning and solution to my own unbearable suffering. I would have never come up with this stuff on my own, and that is the gift. THANK YOU PROFESSOR PETERSON. My kids will be learning from you, too.
Well said brother. Sending good vibes your way.
Woow
Jesse Medina all kudos to you pulling yourself up by your bootstraps is a helluva hurdle. Thanks for sharing your journey.
That was so beautiful to hear you say about this. Such an awesome thank you from a deep part of you...wow! You are truly blessed with your gift now. ♥️♥️♥️♥️😊
I love this break down, it’s one of the reasons I got a dog while being depressed, because taking on more responsibility forces you to get out and explore life a little more, knowing that your life affects another and something relies on you :)
Yes, I truly believe that having that responsibility of caring for something or someone else especially because you care and love them makes you want to be better. It gives you something to look forward, something to better yourself for. Be careful for and caring for someone is a great honor and something so beautiful in life.
My dog has saved my life over and over. There have been so many times I was depressed and the only thing keeping me from going to a suicidal place was the idea that I had to be there for my dog. But I am very afraid of how I am going to feel and what I am going to do when he inevitably passes.
Jp would be proud of this post comment
Jordan. You are such a genius . You make me cry. Keep trying. I love freedom fighters. God speed
What a great teacher. His students are blessed.
He blessing us all putting these up on TH-cam for free
Hard to see this as a Psychology class and not a Philosophy class. All he says is very philosophical, yet connects back to Psychology. He is on point and wish I had him for Psychology I at my college.
@@Mister_Soyuz_on_YT When you listen to JP you're just taking a knowledge class.
"Reduce responsibility to what you CAN bear..." I will work on that, since I was kinda flattened by the responsibility I had dropped on me.
I don't know your situatuon but instead of lessening the load maybe Try to focus on a different responsibility perhaps. Somthing that your naturally attuned to. Somthing that you care about and love or are pasionate about. The load of responsibility feels much lighter when it's what drives you.
That part really hit me in my core. And you can apply that to every area of your life.

He is one of the few that is telling you the truth about life!
Jordan Peterson’s words save lives. His decades of ingenious thinking and working things out have allowed him to become the most inspirational speaker I have encountered to date. Well done Mr Peterson, your hard work and dedication has paid off in more ways than even you can fathom. Peace and respect. ✌️ ✊

Get up, stand up!
Stand up for your Responsibilities!
This man is a realistic genius he has a wonderful and engaging attitude towards education
I've watched countless hours of JBP's videos and lectures. And 6:30 still gave me chills.
Brilliant! I loved when he said ¨That what you should have been taught at university right from the beginning... aim at the highest good... ¨ at 11:53
God bless you, Jordan Peterson, for spreading the word of truth and for standing by it!
Love Jordan Peterson! A breath of fresh air!
“Responsibility is something weird to sell to people.”
Facts JP
Dr. Peterson is one of those people whose words ring so true you feel like you know him deeply in person even if you've only listened to a single online lecture of his. He tells you the truth- no matter how daunting it may be- but he does it in a empathetic, non-judgmental way.
wow I wish I had a university lecturer like him when I was younger just mind blowing stuff
Pure Brilliance due to its purity and brilliance weaved together in articulate nobility.
"The answer to the problem of humanity is the integrity of the individual" agreed👌
This was the most intellectual way to tell people to just "be good to the world". Magnificent. And it came from his heart.
Thank God for Jordan Peterson.
I can’t imagine how amazing it would be to have this man in a lecture and learning from him. I don’t know how if these students know how lucky they are.
I started donating blood (and now plasma and platelets) regularly thanks to JBP. Its a great feeling.
I know it's been over a year, but that's awesome. It makes me want to do the same.
I dont know what I would do without mister Peterson...Thank you really...
The last maps of meaning lecture is one of the most profound things I've ever listened to
6:30 "You are all in - this is gona kill you"
My favourite moment in this video.
Same here

This is always a favorite and it never gets old, and I have not grown tired of this very important foundational idea. I’m going to start every 2019 summer day with this moving authentic premise.
This is one of the best clips. I thought I saw all of his lectures... I must've missed the end. Damn good.
A brilliant teacher, goes straight for the jugular of life. Straightforward and correct. Life is a miracle in motion all the time and it is our individual responsibility to choose an attitude of questioning our personal behaviours for the best outcome for all of us. Thank you Dr. Peterson!
How fortunate are these students to hear such a man speak. I appreciate at least being able to listen to your videos Jordan. Thank you
Ive heard JP articulate this many times in a few different ways and I think this is one of the accessible and concise ways he's packaged this idea. Good stuff.
Have you tried implementing this idea?
This is seriously the most motivating and hope-inspiring video I’ve ever seen. Been watching it any time I need a reminder of the big picture and grounding. 🙏🏻
Just the first four minutes of this changed my life
The more I listen to Jordan Peterson, the more I deeply resent those SJW nitwits who willfully misrepresent him.
Starbat I’m new to his work, can you show me an example of an SJW misrepresenting him that you think fits? I’ve had SJWs as friends in the past, and I’m looking to hit some of their ideals with the biggest hammer I can find, alongside as all other information/perspective I come across.
Watch his interview with Cathy Newman. See how she constantly tries to frame his views as being other than what they are, so that she can pretend to criticize him by criticizing a blatant strawman. It's a thing to observe. It's like she only hears every other word he says.
Mainstream media coverage of the aftermath of that interview only talks about how Cathy Newman was "threatened" on social media, with the implication that Peterson and/or his followers are somehow innately toxic; completely ignoring the fact that the backlash was due to how obtuse and confrontational she was in the interview, and how she made no attempt at actual understanding of his positions.
Also check out his interview on Vice. It was a similar situation of misrepresentation.
th-cam.com/video/blTglME9rvQ/w-d-xo.html
One of my profs of my university from women studies called him an transphobic right-wing incel jbtw.
A prof of "women's studies" WOULD say that....
Don't resent. Resentment is never good my friend. I don't mean to preach here, but I think love really is the answer. Don't love them if you can't, but at least have a place for a little mercy in your heart. Some of them might be well-intentioned but delusional, or ignorant, or some may have been fed fake news, etc. Hatred is not the answer. Love is.
I think I understand where you're coming from but I'd try to do this if you really cared for this subject: Be a good example. Make yourself the best you can be. Be more elocuent and control your temper impecably. Learn how to debate, exchange ideas without the intent of defeating your "opponent", but rather humbly show them a better way. All of this is easier said than done, but I think they make sense..
This snippet has the power and wisdom to cause a psychic shift that permanently changes many peoples lives. Giving people meaning or the promise of meaning is everything and I wish every single man on earth was like him!
Thank god this was recorded, what a teacher
How lucky were these young students to have him! UNBLIEVEBLE Good for them! I'm feeling a shared feeling of gratitude
OMG, this is the best of Jordan Peterson condensed in 12 minutes. Only 1.2 million views?
I think I've watched this about 100 times
This is so crazy it feels like my dad has figured out life, he always says “I’m going to be a good person no matter what” “it’s about who you are going to be” he lives by phrases like “a job worth doing is worth doing well” and he does his best at work everyday and is such an honest person. He is naturally very smart too math comes easy to him he always says he has photographic memory. I feel like he is such a rare human lmao
It sounds like you have a great role model right at home. Make him proud!
But remember also, J.P says himself, doing something 'badly' at first and making mistakes still beats the hell out of doing nothing 😉. Your Dad sounds ace!
I regard this man the greatest scholar of our time.
What a blessing to have him as your professor!
Wise man.
Jordon Peterson is an amazing Man..Ty Sir
Every sentence this guy drops is pure wisdom.
As good as it gets...thank you, my brother!
This has to be my favorite Jordan Peterson lecture... it’s the best articulated case for responsibility I’ve ever heard.
Jordan is the best teacher, that I have ever had! He is the best for all of us!
Jordan Peterson is a gift for humanity. Truly a blessed man! Thanks for this lectures!!
I never seen or heard anyone who can dissect thoughts like him ever.
I’ve had so many teachers jn my life, yet none of them ever spoke words of wisdom like this. If only one teacher would have told me this when I was a struggling adolescent it would have given me so much clarity and motivation to spend a bit more time on my homework. His students are so lucky to have him as their teacher.
"the solution emerges from the problem itself."
An avalanche of wisdom. Forget the spoon, take a shovel - no, take a bulldozer and just keep on raking it all up.
Wow. I like how he makes the crowd respect him.
He's got this absolutely correct.
i could comment this under every single lecture i see from him. He is the most important person/thing i have ever come across in my life. I genuinely can't even begin to fathom in what ways this person has influenced my future.
Jordan Peterson is the philosophical Titan of our times. Powerful stuff. Excellent video.
J.P. Has changed my life for the better.
Wow... to be a student in his class nuat have been incredible! Im glad we have his videos on TH-cam
Omg. I love Jordan Peterson. He is a highly intellectual and intelligent person to walk among us here on earth. Sharing his wisdom
and knowledge.
excellent message , THANK YOU.
I used to be bitter and hold resentment. Once I learn to forgive; resentment went away and hatred followed. Now, I live a much happier life.
This man..This man!!! The depth of his knowledge and the way he executes it, his unselfishly teaching. I literally listen to him at work, home and in my car on max volume because it that deep to me. It’s therapy&knowledge.
I stopped procrastinating to the point where I neglected my hygiene and I do my jobs earlier than everyone around me. Thanks jordan, he motivates me to improve myself. He's an inspiration. I don't like those who try to glorify jordan's every word because that's not the point. The point is to better yourself each day and no one in this generation has said it so eloquiently as he did.
I also came to the same conclusion some time ago that the meaning of Life is Life itself, or the living in it. That has held me steady in my bad times.
Thank you Jordan Peterson
This video has helped me so so much and I can't thank Jordan Peterson enough.
How has the video helped you?
Thank you for teaching me that living in this world can be so damn hard. It has honestly started to make me become more compassionate of myself and also of others. 😊 Thank you so much Jordan Peterson, you really are constantly changing lives, including mine.
Years ago, there could be possible no one i could consider a real teacher. Dissapointment on myself and on humanity was overwhelming. I found this "Petersonwave" in the Internet, so it was hard to trust in the content of his lectures. I tested his rules. My nihilist self is getting weaker every day, still it await to emerge just in case discipline wores off. Battle is daily, that's a thing no one should ever forget.
Marcos Carrizales Success is not for sale, it’s for rent. And the rent is due EVERY DAMNED DAY. Get after it, my friend. It’s worth it.
Im the same way. Through Jordan I realised ive been bitter and nihilistic my whole damned life. When I can keep JPs lessons in mind I make much better choices.
I had goosebumps the moment the students started clapping at the end of the lecture! This man is a gift from god
I can only speak for myself but I feel very empowered after watching this... and kind of excited too
Best Peterson lecture of all time. Can’t beat that!
"On Marriage: The Rule is, you don't get to leave.... The point is, is that there are some games you don't get to play unless You're ALL IN...& the other thing that's so interesting about being ALIVE is that YOU'RE ALL IN -no matter what you do ~You're All In ~THIS IS GOING TO KILL YOU...so I think you might as well play the most magnificent game you can while you're waiting"
~
...then his words on Mother & Child ...& Hero...he's just Classic (Authentic & Raw but refined!) JP in this clip!!!
So Precious!!! He cares so much!
Those students (& all of us) are blessed just to witness such honesty
Everyone on the planet needs to hear this. Thank you Dr. Peterson, I’m forever grateful for you. 🙏🏻❤️
Always a pleasure to listen to this man.
Love all your teachings, you speak such wise words that generations right now need to hear.
Dr. Peterson is a gem. Thank you!
Watching these videos is as compelling and educational as being in that lecture hall with Dr. Peterson.
You can choose between bordom or suffering in life.
Spoken by a greater mind than mine.
Maybe the best message I have ever heard...
I've said this again and again- Jordan Peterson u are a Prophet. Stand firm in the Tempest
I’ve seen many of his videos, and this is one of the best. I hope his students appreciate how fortunate they are to have a prof like him.
