But the ultimate takeaway I received was that the only thing I realized I actually have some control over is to clean my apartment, and I have been making steady strides towards being better and better at that. And it’s interesting how much encouragement that gave me. My love for Christ has only deepened, and I’m no longer suicidal.
You are so beautifully inspiring through your bravery and vulnerability. Thank you for sharing! Progress compounds over time...start with cleaning and the next thing you know you're living out your dream. Many praises to you, my friend!

It’s been 4 years since the worst moment of my life, and only now have I realised that the anger has gone. I’ve finally forgiven myself and I’ve forgiven those who I feel may have wronged me. The realisation wasn’t this explosion of joy upon finally reaching a stage I’d wanted for years, but more a still awareness to fact, and an ability to step outside of the person I have been for these past 4 years and truly reflect
The memories over 18 months old is spot on for me. Lost both of my sisters in 2022. Neither had a funeral or memorial service. I have no closure. It’s heavy on my mind and affects my daily life. Just amazing that he stated it so perfectly for me. Now if I can get past that I’d be better off for sure. God bless you Dr Peterson! ❤🙏🏼 🇺🇸
SOLVE IT! Have two funerals and Memorials for them. Separately. Invite everyone. Do not worry about who might make it etc. Just do it. Plan it, and be there.

My 16-year-old son was making some very poor decisions that were destroying trust and relationships. He spent his first 3 years in an institution before becoming our son, so his early life was difficult and he had to develop survival mechanisms that don't serve him well now (but are very understandable given his early experiences). I want to set him up for a life of love, purpose, and fulfillment (in addition to the suffering we all experience). We all signed up for the self-authoring program this summer with him in mind, and I think it is having an impact 🙏 I see more reflection and the start of building trust. He was also recently baptized and confirmed, which I think is also having its impact 💕
Imagination is our key and curse…like everything else we need balance in all ways. Especially in terms of our connections to many other brains with just as much capacity for imagination both in “good” and “evil”. What beautiful creatures we all are to be able to not only feel but attempt to understand our place in this great dance on the “tipping table”.
Strangely enough, most of my dreams seem to take place in places foreign to me, although people from my past often appear. The feeling of being disoriented and not knowing how to blend in is just as familiar as an old family home though.
@@ANSELMGELINGAR it is giving context to a dream , dreams will come in a series and it is difficult to interpret on your own and without an analysts to guide you , if the dream is saying in am in my old house it could very well be talking about something from the past that is relevant somehow to your now , so it is setting up a context and dream series will always have a beginning a middle and an end , journaling helps because it helps us see the themes and patterns in our dreaming
@Jordan Peterson, you have fundamentally shaped the course of my life since 2016. You helped me discover who I am and what my purpose was. I met you in 2019 and gave you a letter with my Vision. You probably thought I was crazy, but I wasn't lying, a lot of what said is in the process of becoming true. I've already got Wim Hof on board. We will meet again in person and change the world together.
Things keep getting curiouser and curiouser, don’t they? I’m on a similar set of strangenesses. This is what he is trying to do: what are the upper limits of human possibility of heaven and earth touching. People scoff thinking he doesn’t believe because he doesn’t say the words. He has done more of a good job than any one I can think of at bring people into a relationship with Christ. By their fruit you shall know them. ✝️☦️✝️
What's become apparent to me about dreams is that they tell you exactly how you would react to something if you did not have time to think about it. If you don't like how you reacted in the dream to something specific, that's telling you that you what you need to work on.
I still think of failing in college over thirty years ago. This is the one event that taught me who I was and who I will always be; it is the essence of who I am. I think it about that every day and I will continue to do so until I die.
I keep coming back to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs as I contemplate this because it seems obvious to me that "dreams" also have a hierarchical structure of importance correlated to this Hierarchy of Needs. We tend to participate in these topics through a western societal lens and consequently from a perspective of novelty or luxury but there are those of us, even in the West, that are struggling to simply achieve the first 2 tiers within this Needs Hierarchy. If you're dreaming then you are already better off than those who are struggling through their waking nightmares. Some of us are falling and rising up to face the struggle again and again but some of my brethren have not risen up and are gone. Pray for us please.
I'm only ever happy when I am making something for others. Maker. It's been my life. I make things. I fix things. But there's a darkness in me that wants to go...away...to a place where NO ONE else's problems can reach me. And the only thing I have to...fix...is me. It feels...selfish.

I have followed Dr. Peterson for years, and loved every word he has said. Until now. His advice about envisioning what you could be may be good for a young man. For an older man, such as myself, it is a dagger to the heart. I have had a vision of what I wanted to be for years; I have failed to attain it. Now that I am older, I know I will never attain it. This basically means I am a failure, just waiting to die.
Imagine or at least consider what you can do with your lifetime of experience and lessons to assist others in succeeding in life. What we have learned in life and experienced and succeeded in is never what we dreamed of in our youth. If we truly consider deeply, the lives we have lived are rich indeed. We each have an impact we may never realize. Help guide others and continue your journey. You are not a failure. Please don't just wait to die. Keep running the race through the very end. When your life in this world is finished, it is just the start of your next journey. Every experience you have had here are building blocks. What you think was a lack of success here may be the valuable cornerstone to your eternal existence.

Joel 2:28 25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. 26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed. 27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed. 28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. 30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. 31The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. Acts 2:17 14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: 15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. 16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; 17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: 19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: God said it twice, thus it surely comes to pass. Write your epitaph. Believe you are a failure, and you will bring it upon yourself. Set your heart upon a good way before God, and the world will re-align to bring it to pass. But once you get the vision, you can not falter or doubt God's desires for your liberty and liberal abundance in all life's depth and breadth. God bless.
Wow! If you chose to interpret it that way. I don't know what your vision for yourself was but WHO SAYS it was the right one? I am a Christian so in my view, God knows best what he has called me to be, who he has called me to be, and what things he wants me to do. I imagine they are probably small everyday day things that in the end will have eternal fruits. You don't have to reach your goal or any other person's goal to live and NOT JUST be waiting around to die. Ask God to show you your purpose. Sincerely ask him, beg him even to reveal himself, his purposes to you. He reveals himself through the Bible so you could start searching in earnest there. I love Peterson but he cannot answer your eternal needs. Seek the Creator of space, time and matter. He has the answers and much for you to accomplish in the time that remains for you on this Earth. Praying you find the love and hope of Jesus and therein the true purpose of ANY man.
Your state of mind will tell you who you are and what you want to become in your life. The how to get to where you want to be depends on you and you alone. Only you can push yourself to make your dreams a reality!
I can’t connect my dreams with anything-except frustration. I don’t get ideas, inspiration or anything like that. I’ve never heard an explanation of dreams that connects to my reality. I would love to be a patient of Jordan’s to have him explain my dreams-if there is ANY rational explanation.
Jordan... After my dream, although I tried, got shattered, I've also stopped believing in my actual dreams. At least for the time being, because I still believe in the powerful God.
dreams are confusing, trying to make sense of it can lead to enlightenment. But it is your lie to yourself to make sense of the whole construct. Unless you have a photographic memory the reality of the dream keeps changing unless you repeat the same idea. My understanding is no 2 dreams are exactly the same. It can have the same situation, but to understand more you end up doing something different. This can change the situation without understanding why it changed in the first place.
When I wasn’t a practicing traditional Catholic, I would hope God forgave me, but now that I’m a practicing traditional Catholic when I go to confessional, I know when I walk out God has forgiven me and I’ll have to do is make up for it and do penance. When I walk out of the confession, I can dream again of who I want to be and who I’m going to be And what I am I leave that baggage behind that door
Thank you for always bringing on top of your game to help others. Where will I find this exercises you did and talked about? Please can you send me a link? Thank you very much. Great work. I miss seeing you on stage.

I already had a plan set out the only reason I came to Peterson was to study Machiavellian narcissistic type to attempt to to cope with the authoritarian measures at DePaul university
As a young adult, (approx. 12 to 15 years old) I remember reviewing my life every year after my birthday. At the time I was amazed at the amount of detail I could recall how far back I could remember (2 and 3 years old) Over time I slowly gave this practice up. Years later, I regretted doing this but realized that I had actually not stopped doing it. I had an encounter with my grandmother before she passed away where she relayed a story to me about something I did when very young that I didn't know until she told me. A flood of memories and dreams followed for months, where I encountered memories about my past that were traumatic, specifically; how I was treated by two older brothers. Perhaps some of these memories were manufactured by my imagination. I don't really know. At 64 now I try not to pay attention to dreams. I've read enough psychology, (S. Freud and C. Jung). I have lived a complicated life. I believe I have sorted out my history well enough. In my experience, being the most educated out of my family has had mostly negative consequences. I'm sorry to say that! This is what this video helped me to want to express. Thanks Jordan. You are a light to me.
I died 11 years ago. Gave up on everything Really hard to get back into life after a decade gone. Gave up on my dreams. Drowning in debt. This life is forfeit. Good luck everyone
I have to say that after doing the self authoring program in its entirety with one review a year or so later to go over the goals, and past authoring to see if I got everything right as I saw it. The process was a slog and it did not help my life. I think that it made it worse. I have lost just about everything that made my life bearable and if not for a few graces I would be destitute for a second time in my life. I had a lot of hope first listening to Peterson; I have met the man I have read his books and have listened to his lectures. I now watch these Peterson clips with the cynicism I formerly reserved for televangelists; I hold the conclusion that I was taken for a ride. I am glad that the self authoring program has worked for some people here. I am pointing out: I am an unsatisfied customer and from my experience self authoring is not a panacea that is going to up end your life from the primordial dragon of chaos from the depths of the sea. The joke is on me I suppose. Good play Peterson.
Been living out such aspects to a degree that none could imagine, though I'm sure I've acquired my "masters" degree from my living experience from doing such throughout my life. Please pray for me...🙏
I was trained by God and given a mind that speaks to me and gives me dream interpretations, , I am in desperate need of help as my father filed my teeth down and I've been punished tortured and abused for 19 years, society does not want to help,
I journaled with a mentor for quite sometime I also watched him do it either with others , if you get hold of the themes and ideas and images that run in your own background
Judgement should be taken as a form of affection rather than as a pejorative. Our culture villainizes criticism as though its only purpose is to to be insulting even if it comes from a place of good intentions.
I had a dream there was a bear in my bed and I wasn't really freaked out I was just wondering how I got there and what I'm supposed to do with it now out of completely nowhere someone help with that lol It was a grizzly bear but he seemed friendly enough
Hang in there and face the treachery of your mind. Align your being with the best possible good you can conceive and aim at it entirely. You are supported by more than you know and will be stronger for it along the way. We believe in you!
Same here !!! One month off after years and years of daily smokes... Terrible nightmares, very strange and exhausting mornings... I journal them. I pray more. And it gives me the absolute confirmation that I don't want to "get high" anymore, just for the sake of those nightmares, all that was avoided and denied... I just don't want to have to start all over again this terrifying journey. Often afraid to go to sleep and what awaits me around the corner, even though I know it will eventually get better... How is it for you four months later ?
@@surfandlearn I have smoked again, but way less. I still have in my mind to quit. I haven't bought any just a buddy gave me a bunch for free shouldn't have taken it tho. I appreciate your comment and I believe I will be smoke free soon. kind of makes me feel like a whimp not being able to just kick it.
I keep thinking about my relationships with the men in my past, I am married now have been for awhile, about 6 months ago i felt very sad one day, idk what it was over, but a couple nights after that i had a dream about my ex. I have intrusive thoughts about him. Old feeling and emotions come with that.
I don't know men... in some cases the hand guestures start to seem a performative act... and religion accompanied with performative acts don't really bode well to my... intuition... still. i listen to a bunch of what he has to say. so long as he's having sensible arguments.
Thanks for honoring my freedom of speech. In his clinic as a psychologist I wonder how Jordan interpreted the dreams of these people? From the book … Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader The World’s Gone Crazy: 432 All-New Pages of the Strangest, Most Outrageous Stuff … by Bathroom Reader’s Institute Pageant: Miss International Queen Details: Don’t let the name fool you-this isn’t for natural-born women; it’s for transvestites and transsexuals. Held each year in Thailand (where there is a large population of both, though contestants fly in from all over the world), it offers a top prize of $10,000,000.
I am looking at your jacket, and listening to you ramble on, and I'm thinking you, Jordan, are in an Identity crisis. By the way, what you are looking for and your listeners are looking for is not a load of psychobabble, but the Gospel of Jesus Christ: Mathew 11:28 “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
I tried the self authoring program and I don’t think I’ve ever cried so hard in my life, I couldn’t even finish it. But the ultimate takeaway I received was that the only thing I realized I actually have some control over is to clean my apartment, and I have been making steady strides towards being better and better at that. And it’s interesting how much encouragement that gave me. My love for Christ has only deepened, and I’m no longer suicidal.
Praise God!!!
You got this. Get better every day.
So beautiful to hear about.

Joel 2:28 25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. 26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed. 27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed. 28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. 30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. 31The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.
Acts 2:17 14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: 15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. 16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; 17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: 19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
God said it twice, thus it surely comes to pass. Write your epitaph. Believe you are a failure, and you will bring it upon yourself. Set your heart upon a good way before God, and the world will re-align to bring it to pass. But once you get the vision, you can not falter or doubt God's desires for your liberty and liberal abundance in all life's depth and breadth. God bless.
Wow! If you chose to interpret it that way. I don't know what your vision for yourself was but WHO SAYS it was the right one? I am a Christian so in my view, God knows best what he has called me to be, who he has called me to be, and what things he wants me to do. I imagine they are probably small everyday day things that in the end will have eternal fruits. You don't have to reach your goal or any other person's goal to live and NOT JUST be waiting around to die. Ask God to show you your purpose. Sincerely ask him, beg him even to reveal himself, his purposes to you. He reveals himself through the Bible so you could start searching in earnest there. I love Peterson but he cannot answer your eternal needs. Seek the Creator of space, time and matter. He has the answers and much for you to accomplish in the time that remains for you on this Earth. Praying you find the love and hope of Jesus and therein the true purpose of ANY man.
Your state of mind will tell you who you are and what you want to become in your life. The how to get to where you want to be depends on you and you alone. Only you can push yourself to make your dreams a reality!
Thank you Dr Peterson
jesus, the conscience within. thats what we ought to strive for. perfection. never ceasing always forgiving. leading by example not by words
God Bless Jordan Peterson
I can’t connect my dreams with anything-except frustration. I don’t get ideas, inspiration or anything like that. I’ve never heard an explanation of dreams that connects to my reality. I would love to be a patient of Jordan’s to have him explain my dreams-if there is ANY rational explanation.
Jordan... After my dream, although I tried, got shattered, I've also stopped believing in my actual dreams. At least for the time being, because I still believe in the powerful God.
Kekule discovered the shape of the benzene ring after a dream: a snake biting its tail.
Thank you Sir. Thank you.
dreams are confusing, trying to make sense of it can lead to enlightenment. But it is your lie to yourself to make sense of the whole construct. Unless you have a photographic memory the reality of the dream keeps changing unless you repeat the same idea. My understanding is no 2 dreams are exactly the same. It can have the same situation, but to understand more you end up doing something different. This can change the situation without understanding why it changed in the first place.

When I wasn’t a practicing traditional Catholic, I would hope God forgave me, but now that I’m a practicing traditional Catholic when I go to confessional, I know when I walk out God has forgiven me and I’ll have to do is make up for it and do penance. When I walk out of the confession, I can dream again of who I want to be and who I’m going to be And what I am I leave that baggage behind that door
Thank you for always bringing on top of your game to help others.
Where will I find this exercises you did and talked about?
Please can you send me a link?
Thank you very much.
Great work.
I miss seeing you on stage.
By spiritual meditation we can set our goals because we all have purpose in life
I have recurring dreams of not being able to walk or run at full speed. My actions are slowed like body isn’t responding, and it’s very unnerving

I already had a plan set out the only reason I came to Peterson was to study Machiavellian narcissistic type to attempt to to cope with the authoritarian measures at DePaul university
As a young adult, (approx. 12 to 15 years old) I remember reviewing my life every year after my birthday. At the time I was amazed at the amount of detail I could recall how far back I could remember (2 and 3 years old) Over time I slowly gave this practice up. Years later, I regretted doing this but realized that I had actually not stopped doing it. I had an encounter with my grandmother before she passed away where she relayed a story to me about something I did when very young that I didn't know until she told me. A flood of memories and dreams followed for months, where I encountered memories about my past that were traumatic, specifically; how I was treated by two older brothers. Perhaps some of these memories were manufactured by my imagination. I don't really know. At 64 now I try not to pay attention to dreams. I've read enough psychology, (S. Freud and C. Jung). I have lived a complicated life. I believe I have sorted out my history well enough. In my experience, being the most educated out of my family has had mostly negative consequences. I'm sorry to say that! This is what this video helped me to want to express. Thanks Jordan. You are a light to me.
"I've read enough psychology" (S. Freud... ??? you've read the wrong psychology

Dreams change over time
Our Purpose changes, as the World changes and our place in it evolves. My Dreams at 76 are not what my Dreams at 26 were.
Thanks Jordan
thanks.
I died 11 years ago. Gave up on everything
Really hard to get back into life after a decade gone.
Gave up on my dreams.
Drowning in debt.
This life is forfeit.
Good luck everyone
Do you still see patients Dr.Peterson? I need to live and let go of my trauma and hell, but I'm having a hard time finding a great dr and thinker.
I have to say that after doing the self authoring program in its entirety with one review a year or so later to go over the goals, and past authoring to see if I got everything right as I saw it. The process was a slog and it did not help my life. I think that it made it worse. I have lost just about everything that made my life bearable and if not for a few graces I would be destitute for a second time in my life. I had a lot of hope first listening to Peterson; I have met the man I have read his books and have listened to his lectures. I now watch these Peterson clips with the cynicism I formerly reserved for televangelists; I hold the conclusion that I was taken for a ride. I am glad that the self authoring program has worked for some people here. I am pointing out: I am an unsatisfied customer and from my experience self authoring is not a panacea that is going to up end your life from the primordial dragon of chaos from the depths of the sea. The joke is on me I suppose. Good play Peterson.

Been living out such aspects to a degree that none could imagine, though I'm sure I've acquired my "masters" degree from my living experience from doing such throughout my life. Please pray for me...🙏
night dreams and daydreaming...💌🍀🎯💞
I was trained by God and given a mind that speaks to me and gives me dream interpretations, , I am in desperate need of help as my father filed my teeth down and I've been punished tortured and abused for 19 years, society does not want to help,
Where can i find the full speech?
Seems Two-face from Batman would most likely be the inspiration for that dream suit doc
I journaled with a mentor for quite sometime I also watched him do it either with others , if you get hold of the themes and ideas and images that run in your own background
I have narcolepsy I hate my dreams they are usually me in the past, when all the trauma, abuse, and hell fire were being born inside me. 😢

Judgement should be taken as a form of affection rather than as a pejorative. Our culture villainizes criticism as though its only purpose is to to be insulting even if it comes from a place of good intentions.
Nice suit Jorden,

Ill let you know once this THC leaves my body. I have horrible dreams.
Hang in there and face the treachery of your mind. Align your being with the best possible good you can conceive and aim at it entirely. You are supported by more than you know and will be stronger for it along the way. We believe in you!
Same here !!! One month off after years and years of daily smokes... Terrible nightmares, very strange and exhausting mornings... I journal them. I pray more. And it gives me the absolute confirmation that I don't want to "get high" anymore, just for the sake of those nightmares, all that was avoided and denied... I just don't want to have to start all over again this terrifying journey.
Often afraid to go to sleep and what awaits me around the corner, even though I know it will eventually get better...
How is it for you four months later ?
@@surfandlearn I have smoked again, but way less. I still have in my mind to quit. I haven't bought any just a buddy gave me a bunch for free shouldn't have taken it tho. I appreciate your comment and I believe I will be smoke free soon. kind of makes me feel like a whimp not being able to just kick it.

I have discovered the ABC Model by Dr Albert Ellis. This is a pretty good method to put two and two together.
I keep thinking about my relationships with the men in my past, I am married now have been for awhile, about 6 months ago i felt very sad one day, idk what it was over, but a couple nights after that i had a dream about my ex. I have intrusive thoughts about him. Old feeling and emotions come with that.

Thanks for honoring my freedom of speech.
In his clinic as a psychologist I wonder how Jordan interpreted the dreams of these people?
From the book … Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader The World’s Gone Crazy: 432 All-New Pages of the Strangest, Most Outrageous Stuff … by Bathroom Reader’s Institute
Pageant: Miss International Queen
Details: Don’t let the name fool you-this isn’t for natural-born women; it’s for transvestites and transsexuals. Held each year in Thailand (where there is a large population of both, though contestants fly in from all over the world), it offers a top prize of $10,000,000.
But there's no one in the audience.
I need this J.P., not the god-obsessed J.P.
This JP would tell you to listen to that JP.
Why he wearing a Harvey Two Face suit? Who is dressing this man?
I am looking at your jacket, and listening to you ramble on, and I'm thinking you, Jordan, are in an Identity crisis. By the way, what you are looking for and your listeners are looking for is not a load of psychobabble, but the Gospel of Jesus Christ: Mathew 11:28 “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
The mentally ill really understand Jordan Peterson. He's the new Aleister Crowley.
Woah bro your whole life revolves around this man lol. You really need help no joke
This man is depressing....
Thats an interesting choice of attire, very deliberate... I wonder what might be its purpose.
I'm guessing. It's a representation from his book 12 rules of life, which explores the balance between order and chaos.
The ideal or God can actually be a great impediment to realisation
Dreams? Every time I watch a democrat do anything its a nightmare.
Just democrats?
You are correct. All of them.
Thank you Jordan!
