I love that man so much. He’s not old enough to be my dad but I watch his videos to fill the dad void and it helps so much. He doesn’t only help men. Women need this too.
He reminds me so much of my Dad. The way he looks, the intelligence and deep spiritual insight on things such as scripture; along with the kind of pain he has suffered and the weight of that. I think that’s one of the reasons he connects to me so much.
@@DeJake depends on what your major is there's b.a. psych and b.s.c psych...as much as people want to suggest that stuff is science I don't believe it's nearly the same as classical science.
Im 30 years old and my dad just suddenly passed away at 68 3 days ago and I’ve watched this video probably 30 times. It makes me feel so much better. Gives me strength and understanding when i need it. Thanks JP
No offense but Joe is a professional interviewer. It’s his job to be quiet and ask questions that will drive the conversation forward.. when you have someone like Jordan Peterson speaking, there’s not much you need to do to get the maximum amount of information out of his mouth.
My dad died in February. Sometimes I feel like I’m rescuing my father from things he left unfinished so that I can prove to the world that he was a good and honorable man.
Those that hear Peterson directly probably already believe in this woo. If it's the first time you're hearing this woo you're going to have a harder time understanding it.
graphicism Everything he says is the truth. The people saying they won't fall for his beliefs probably call transsexuals which ever gender they think they are. "Sure I'll call billy Debra from now on, but I won't bend reality to believe Jordan Peterson". The truth is hard to swallow but that doesn't make it not true. It's a lot easier to say orange man bad than actually look into things and admit you might be wrong about things.
@@BiggestRedditor Well you're inadvertently admitting a confirmation bias, which is fine, but you only serve to prove my point regarding those that "follow" Peterson. You shouldn't say "Everything he says is the truth" because again, his words speak to you. Peterson confirms your bias. Further he talks about the medias-narrative, which as far as I am concerned is all fake news for the gullible public. He picks that up and runs with it, as if there is a kid around every corner wanting to be considered a Panda bear. To reiterate, if you didn't watch TV and keep up with the so called NEWS, you wouldn't know what what he was talking about most of the time. I'm being silly now, but imagine if someone spoke elegantly and poignantly about the Simpsons, how would you feel? And that is perhaps somewhere I reside in regards to Peterson.
This animosity towards JP is really weird. But what else to expect in a world where taking responsibility for oneself and one's actions is akin to suicide.
@@MastaSmack well shit man, existence isn't exactly the easiest thing out there, but what other alternative do you have? Might make the most out of it, even if your "most" isn't what society considers "the most". Fuck it, your life, your terms, as long as you're happy, awesome.
I have seen this clip years ago saw it now when I am more mature it hits different and makes you realize more about the relationship with your father !
I think he would say that he represents old tradition and information that those not suits into a new reality. Not that it is wrong but it is incomplete and insuficient, and the way to deal with that is by having Pinocchio, the new and the reformist, to rescue it and give it a new shape and form.
Wow just WOW how Jordan Peterson can explain so articulately yet staying on subject by breakdown a point of view. I so do enjoy his lectures on TH-cam.
You are not wasting your time. The unpleasent experience of wasting your time is exactly what will propel you towards achieving your potential. Just continue facing these terrifying feelings and it will sort itself out.
Imagine having this dude as a father figure since birth, or at least as long as you can remember. We all could benefit from that kind of relationship/mentorship

Jordan’s ability to identify archetypes and assign revelational meaning to any variety of religious or pop culture tropes is mind blowing. One day Pinocchio was just another dumb Disney cartoon I saw as a kid. By the time Jordan was done with it, every character every place every word spoken was a symbol of very real forces that are part of the shared experience of anyone who walks this planet. I am thoroughly convinced he could be on next week breaking down a long forgotten Three Stooges episode and how it is a metaphor for life. Moe, Larry and Curly are manifestations of human archetypes we will encounter as part of our human development. Shemp, Curly Joe, and Joe were not just Hollywood footnotes, but purposeful characters who fulfilled meaningful roles at an important time in the story. Jordan would have no problem mapping out how one obscure slapstick series could contain within it the successful rules for a happier life.
4:00 I was never able to comprehend how I feel I can take on the strength of my ancestors when I push myself hard and here comes Peterson explaining it out so clearly and eloquently. Love this man! Thank you for these interviews Rogan!
Every system of mass dysfunction/immorality that I've dedicated my life to leaving behind completely matches the systems that ruined my father's life. I didn't do this on purpose, I just noticed this recently. As I see it, JBP's view on this metaphor is looking at the nature of inheritance. I inherited the existence of my parents. This is powerful to recognize that we all participate in a bigger picture, and that bigger picture is made up of simultaneously independent events and chain reactions, and they influence each other and clash and combine. So to do with this life something meaningful that helps people and improves life is caring for this life that was given to you by your parents. But JBP goes deeper and looks at the deep observation, self-reflection that is like an intensive meditation, that brings you to see things differently, and confronts you with everything your father could not save himself from.
With all my heart I thank these two men. Jordan Peterson: your the Best thing to come out of Canada Ever, you are even better than hockey and Man I love hockey.
Joe you need to rename this clip! I was almost NOT going to watch it because of the title and then was like... It's got Jordan Peterson so ya... I'll give it a watch... and the sheer brilliance of this man to unlock the secrets of our lives is unprecedented! His words unlock the crypt with the treasure! Like you Joe... I sit in silence when Jordan talks because he is absolutely mind blowing! "Challenging Yourself to Find Your Maximum Potential" or "Why Facing Your Fears Frees You" or "Doing the Scary Thing is Scary but Confronting Your Fears Opens Your Vault" or "You Need Pain to Grow" I'm gonna watch it again right now!
4:53 "so this idea of saving someone who is very important to you, risking your life to save someone who's important to you maximizes your potential as a human being?" ehHH s'high
so interesting to think that if you're someone who is gradually overturning their suffering through growth, that pain/pressure that you're relinquishing or transforming is the weight of your "cross" that you're bearing
I was playing Gears of War 5 the other day and theres a part where you are literally rescuing your father from the belly of the beast, and as i played i could picture JP sitting there nodding his head saying "Yes, thats exactly right!" xD
@@BD-yl5mh I think he would find issue with spending all day every day gaming to escape from real life responsibilities more than a playing for a couple of hours here and there to relax.
@@St3v3z you’re probably right, I just want to reiterate I didn’t really mean it as that much of a dig though man. I just imagined Dr P sitting next to you playing video games and thought “here’s what he might say” It was like a little comedy vignette in my head, don’t stress
@@danl7442 what part of: "through struggle and striving to make an impact in the world through self mastery you unlock your true genetic potential" don't you understand?
@@TheMindofRa it doesnt make sense because literally anybody can follow that and make themselves relevant to become that importance in their own mind. Thats a very liberal route.
@@GrassTalk4202 did you really come to a JP segment on a podcast let alone to a comment section to be non-political? Congratulations. You just won the naive darwin award.
It's like when Rodimus Prime short-circuited himself so his life force could enter the Matrix of Leadership and speak to Optimus and all the Primes that came before him.
I understand completely what Jordan is saying. He is describing the same idea that is in the movie Fightclub. The idea that something inside us awakens when we fight in a street fight where we put our life at risk and where we must search within our souls some strength in order to survive and beat our rival.
@@superllama5509 You do realize that a text can be interpreted in multiple ways and you don't need to tell everyone how to interpret just because you've watched one wisecrack video, right?
Thanks for putting this clip up on TH-cam - I was searching for it as I wanted to listen to this particular idea again - but forgot which talk with Joe Rogan it was on. I have never read so many negative comment about Dr Peterson on a TH-cam clip before - he certainly hit a nerve. I guess what we cannot understand we always think is stupid - ( CG Jung said that that. )
Not the only Disney film to explore that..... In the finale of The Little Mermaid, Ariel puts her life at risk and selflessly saves her father from becoming the Sea-witch's slave, after having initially defied him, making the selfish choice and unintentionally putting him in the dangerous situation to begin with. "I love you daddy!" Her last line in the film! Always brings a year to my eye.
3:30 i am at this point and i was feeling really very sad knowing the darkest beasts hidden in the society and the sadness isn't going anywhere but then i saw JP speaking and explaining it , now i have a foggy image of what i need to do but still i want that image to be more clear.
An outlier for this theory would be people with stress related mental disorders that are dependent on public funded healthcare. Plenty of opportunity to encounter human malevolence whether it be from other patients or staff. I don't see them being supercharged potential machines. Sometimes a wall isn't a challenge. It's just a wall.
For real bro. When the analogy clicked in my head it gave me that exact same feeling you get when you make an astonishing realisation on LSD or shrooms. I think its because it resonates so much with our souls and with knowledge that is dormant in our minds passed onto us by our forefathers as a blueprint to thrive in this world. We just unlocked a little of that sacred knowledge and the weird psychedelic feeling we get from that is confirmation.
If u want to take the red pill of all red pills watch Peterson’s podcast with the author of the immortality key. Psychedelics, Christ, underworld, death, transformation, is all embedded in a underlying reality on which consciousness operates, then tie in Peterson’s hypothesis on sexual selection in humans for the manifestation of logos, the hair on arms start to stand. It’s like what the fuck is going on here?
I was doing things while watching this so it didn’t have my full attention and I honestly haven’t fully gotten it. Essentially it sounds like a highly metaphorical way of saying you need to challenge yourself to grow. But taking it a little more literally, is is actually about defeating whatever defeated your father? That is to say that I recognise in my parents relationship, that I think my dad settled and got stuck with an unreasonable woman. I think he appreciated being needed but I think he gave up too much for that. That is not to outright admonish my mother, but I do wonder if my father secretly wishes he had an out. That being said, I fell into a relationship that was frighteningly reminiscent of theirs in my early 20s. Was in it for over 3 years, and then finally found the strength to break out of it (having known since about the 6 month mark I wasn’t happy). I honestly think I wasn’t far from being broken and just going along with marriage and kids and whatever. But I couldn’t break out without seeing my dad in a new light. I now wouldn’t consider myself a MGTOW or anything, but I think I’ve determined that I need to work myself out first, and that I will never give up as much of myself as I was willing to originally, and in a way that will be a lesson learn, almost in my fathers stead. Is this in anyway related to what JP is saying here? The fact is, in many ways I lag desperately behind my father, so I still have many obstacles laid out in front of me to overcome and manifest a better self but in some ways this felt like a critical lesson for me to learn that my father didn’t
Very interesting analysis. I’ve always thought that saving your father from the belly of the whale was to restore your father’s faith. Saving him from cynicism perhaps by baring the responsibilities of the family and some of the burden linked to moral relativism.
"Participation in acts whose sole purpose is expansion of innocent pain and suffering destroys character; forthright encounter with tragedy, by contrast, may increase it." -Maps of Meaning
When I see a comment about Peterson being a hack charlton I start trying to find out if it's a an alt right, white supremacists or a leftist but then I give up because it's so hard to tell the difference.
It's like Crossfit for the psyche, constantly changing the workout to maximize overall fitness. I was a coach before it got big, and the analogy is perfect. Almost everyone has a physical ability that is above average in one realm or a certain movement, and that is easy to see in Olympians. But in CF, we didn't only do what we like, we had so much variety that one person could be the bad-ass one day, and be beat by a hundred pound girl the next. And the breakdown of strengths and weaknesses is what a femi-nazi might say is culturally imposed standards. No, men are stronger, faster, and more powerful. Women are typically more agile, flexible, have better endurance at medium stress tasks, and have way better balance. Of course men love the bench-press day, but if I didn't make them get faster on their pull-ups, or push them to gain flexibility in their upper body, they'd never see the potential of having strength AND the mobility to maximize that strength. And in women, if I didn't push them to handle a little more weight on their deadlift, then they could still roll out box jumps like Tigger, but wouldn't gain the strength to go a little higher on the box. This is probably going to save my life, because I did look into the abyss, and have searched for a way out for 4 years. All I needed this whole time was a man to tell me that it was brave to choose to look. I remember when I decided to follow the thread of betrayal, and it unraveled me as I unraveled it. I will never be the same. But, at least now, I feel like there was a meaning, and when I decided to suffer for the truth, it was right, even if it has destroyed me. At least I had the courage. I love Jordan Peterson. He is a good man. I wish my son would watch him, but we all know 17 year old men won't listen to mom's choice of anything. The dummy. And most women hate him! WTF?
I know this is a 4years ago comment but I wanted to tell you this is all common sense that I figured out when I was 17 so idk what y’all older generations lived if y’all didn’t figure this until late in life, like y’all were dead alive fr I’m not even joking
How to know when will the things go in wrong path? How much stress is too much? I agree that we should accept as many challenges as we can, but how to know how much is too much? Becuase too much stress causes illnesses, and you end up in a worst place then where you began

But JBP goes deeper and looks at the deep observation, self-reflection that is like an intensive meditation, that brings you to see things differently, and confronts you with everything your father could not save himself from.
The weird mix of stoners and conservative intellectuals makes this comment section very entertaining.
This is deep. Epic. Thumbs up.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
And sometimes it isn't.

With all my heart I thank these two men.
Jordan Peterson: your the Best thing to come out of Canada Ever, you are even better than hockey and Man I love hockey.
Joe you need to rename this clip! I was almost NOT going to watch it because of the title and then was like... It's got Jordan Peterson so ya... I'll give it a watch... and the sheer brilliance of this man to unlock the secrets of our lives is unprecedented! His words unlock the crypt with the treasure! Like you Joe... I sit in silence when Jordan talks because he is absolutely mind blowing! "Challenging Yourself to Find Your Maximum Potential" or "Why Facing Your Fears Frees You" or "Doing the Scary Thing is Scary but Confronting Your Fears Opens Your Vault" or "You Need Pain to Grow" I'm gonna watch it again right now!
Is Jamie trying to make Peterson look like a nut with these thumbnails?
@Aws Yep. Word Salad.
Lmao I saw them all and it reminded me of the sith Emperor
4:53 "so this idea of saving someone who is very important to you, risking your life to save someone who's important to you maximizes your potential as a human being?" ehHH s'high
This is deep, extremely deep... I love it.
so interesting to think that if you're someone who is gradually overturning their suffering through growth, that pain/pressure that you're relinquishing or transforming is the weight of your "cross" that you're bearing
That is one of his finest speeches. Prophetic.
I was playing Gears of War 5 the other day and theres a part where you are literally rescuing your father from the belly of the beast, and as i played i could picture JP sitting there nodding his head saying "Yes, thats exactly right!" xD
But also probably “go outside and achieve something real”
@@BD-yl5mh Like making snide, anonymous comments on the internet?
@@St3v3z was actually intended as a joke mate, I just found there to be some funny contrast in finding Peterson’s message in a video game
@@BD-yl5mh I think he would find issue with spending all day every day gaming to escape from real life responsibilities more than a playing for a couple of hours here and there to relax.
@@St3v3z you’re probably right, I just want to reiterate I didn’t really mean it as that much of a dig though man. I just imagined Dr P sitting next to you playing video games and thought “here’s what he might say”
It was like a little comedy vignette in my head, don’t stress
Jordan 'taking on heavy loads" Peterson.
voluntary - is the important part of that sentence.
SHARE THE LOAD
That actually makes a lot of sense
It actually doesn't
@@danl7442 what part of: "through struggle and striving to make an impact in the world through self mastery you unlock your true genetic potential" don't you understand?
@@TheMindofRa it doesnt make sense because literally anybody can follow that and make themselves relevant to become that importance in their own mind. Thats a very liberal route.
Daki Kal Ahhhhh so now it makes sense it's a political thing y'all really can't listen to anything opposing your views can you?
@@GrassTalk4202 did you really come to a JP segment on a podcast let alone to a comment section to be non-political? Congratulations. You just won the naive darwin award.
It's the same idea in the movie "Parasite" too, the son has to rescue his father from the basement of the house.
It's like when Rodimus Prime short-circuited himself so his life force could enter the Matrix of Leadership and speak to Optimus and all the Primes that came before him.
Imma striaght transformer nerd and I think will happily be the one who likes this :)
"That's really interesting Jordan, but have you ever done DMT? Jamie, google sex robot brothel!"
I understand completely what Jordan is saying. He is describing the same idea that is in the movie Fightclub. The idea that something inside us awakens when we fight in a street fight where we put our life at risk and where we must search within our souls some strength in order to survive and beat our rival.
You do realise that fight club is a critique of fascism in the same way starship troopers is, just more subtle right?
I feel like these are children's stories for the slow that still don't understand; you can be whatever you want to be...
@@superllama5509
You do realize that a text can be interpreted in multiple ways and you don't need to tell everyone how to interpret just because you've watched one wisecrack video, right?
@@abhishekkumar3679 😂😂🤣 I've seen that video too. Looks like there's three of us.
I don't know why people are having a hard time understanding what Peterson is saying and the idea the original commenter posted.
“You can face that there wasn’t prevail” - truth
Thanks for putting this clip up on TH-cam - I was searching for it as I wanted to listen to this particular idea again - but forgot which talk with Joe Rogan it was on. I have never read so many negative comment about Dr Peterson on a TH-cam clip before - he certainly hit a nerve. I guess what we cannot understand we always think is stupid - ( CG Jung said that that. )
This is a truly good one!
Who else is facing pharmaceutical drug problems?
Not the only Disney film to explore that.....
In the finale of The Little Mermaid, Ariel puts her life at risk and selflessly saves her father from becoming the Sea-witch's slave, after having initially defied him, making the selfish choice and unintentionally putting him in the dangerous situation to begin with.
"I love you daddy!"
Her last line in the film! Always brings a year to my eye.
3:30 i am at this point and i was feeling really very sad knowing the darkest beasts hidden in the society and the sadness isn't going anywhere but then i saw JP speaking and explaining it , now i have a foggy image of what i need to do but still i want that image to be more clear.
Any Christians on here who can tell me why most Christian pastors dislike Dr Peterson?
If Thor doesn't shy away from challenges he would eventually become as strong as Odin.
Incredibly interesting
More relevant today than ever
An outlier for this theory would be people with stress related mental disorders that are dependent on public funded healthcare. Plenty of opportunity to encounter human malevolence whether it be from other patients or staff. I don't see them being supercharged potential machines. Sometimes a wall isn't a challenge. It's just a wall.
yet no mention of frustration
Dr. JP comin at ya with deadpool theory
People who can't understand this have not developed their abstract thinking.. i feel sorry for them. Wish they have read some books and Jung.
Joe: (pause) Do you think Pinocchio did DMTs?
Brilliant ideas
Jordan Peterson is definitely one the most intelectual beings on earth.
i need to do that right now
This is psychedelic asf. Seriously. For me at least, most of my experiences with psychedelics are analogous to pretty much everything he said.
For real bro. When the analogy clicked in my head it gave me that exact same feeling you get when you make an astonishing realisation on LSD or shrooms. I think its because it resonates so much with our souls and with knowledge that is dormant in our minds passed onto us by our forefathers as a blueprint to thrive in this world. We just unlocked a little of that sacred knowledge and the weird psychedelic feeling we get from that is confirmation.
If u want to take the red pill of all red pills watch Peterson’s podcast with the author of the immortality key. Psychedelics, Christ, underworld, death, transformation, is all embedded in a underlying reality on which consciousness operates, then tie in Peterson’s hypothesis on sexual selection in humans for the manifestation of logos, the hair on arms start to stand. It’s like what the fuck is going on here?
@@josevanreyes Dude exactly that. I was pausing and coming to insane realizations.
I never like anyone giving me extra loads to carry ! So how come I still love this guy ! Definitely different !
Damn i love this man Jordan B peterson
Lol!

7:10 Why am I thinking of post time-skip Zorro in One Piece?
reading TH-cam comments is my new pass-time
Here... read another one 👍
especially I find comments on Jordan's videos less random & cringe and more civilized to read, he is a true magician
Currently playing this game daily. Just recently becoming aware that it is a thing.
Ty
man, i feel like am not doing anything with my life after watching this
I was doing things while watching this so it didn’t have my full attention and I honestly haven’t fully gotten it. Essentially it sounds like a highly metaphorical way of saying you need to challenge yourself to grow.
But taking it a little more literally, is is actually about defeating whatever defeated your father? That is to say that I recognise in my parents relationship, that I think my dad settled and got stuck with an unreasonable woman. I think he appreciated being needed but I think he gave up too much for that. That is not to outright admonish my mother, but I do wonder if my father secretly wishes he had an out.
That being said, I fell into a relationship that was frighteningly reminiscent of theirs in my early 20s. Was in it for over 3 years, and then finally found the strength to break out of it (having known since about the 6 month mark I wasn’t happy). I honestly think I wasn’t far from being broken and just going along with marriage and kids and whatever. But I couldn’t break out without seeing my dad in a new light.
I now wouldn’t consider myself a MGTOW or anything, but I think I’ve determined that I need to work myself out first, and that I will never give up as much of myself as I was willing to originally, and in a way that will be a lesson learn, almost in my fathers stead.
Is this in anyway related to what JP is saying here?
The fact is, in many ways I lag desperately behind my father, so I still have many obstacles laid out in front of me to overcome and manifest a better self but in some ways this felt like a critical lesson for me to learn that my father didn’t
Is he getting ready to hit Joe with force lightning on the thumbnail?
4:00-5:00 Did Peterson just describe RPG games and Anime?
It’s crazy how eye opening this is
Freaking wizard
Love you Jordan
Very interesting analysis.
I’ve always thought that saving your father from the belly of the whale was to restore your father’s faith. Saving him from cynicism perhaps by baring the responsibilities of the family and some of the burden linked to moral relativism.
One of the most fascinating videos I’ve ever seen on this platform. Seriously, this IS life changing
"Participation in acts whose sole purpose is expansion of innocent pain and suffering destroys character;
forthright encounter with tragedy, by contrast, may increase it." -Maps of Meaning
When I see a comment about Peterson being a hack charlton I start trying to find out if it's a an alt right, white supremacists or a leftist but then I give up because it's so hard to tell the difference.
I feel the pain of everyone, then I feel nothing.
Interesting
Same lesson Son Goku has been teaching us on DBZ
Aw, man. I don't have kids. If I get swallowed by a whale I'm screwed...
I get swallowed by a whale twice a week. Your mom is a good lady though.
Bitch😂😂😂
your father is tradition and / or culture if I understand it correctly
Esteban B that was a good one. now say jk
Like word for word Jordan is going in
Yo I had a dream that was exactly what this dude is saying. Wtf?!?!?
It's like Crossfit for the psyche, constantly changing the workout to maximize overall fitness. I was a coach before it got big, and the analogy is perfect. Almost everyone has a physical ability that is above average in one realm or a certain movement, and that is easy to see in Olympians. But in CF, we didn't only do what we like, we had so much variety that one person could be the bad-ass one day, and be beat by a hundred pound girl the next. And the breakdown of strengths and weaknesses is what a femi-nazi might say is culturally imposed standards. No, men are stronger, faster, and more powerful. Women are typically more agile, flexible, have better endurance at medium stress tasks, and have way better balance. Of course men love the bench-press day, but if I didn't make them get faster on their pull-ups, or push them to gain flexibility in their upper body, they'd never see the potential of having strength AND the mobility to maximize that strength. And in women, if I didn't push them to handle a little more weight on their deadlift, then they could still roll out box jumps like Tigger, but wouldn't gain the strength to go a little higher on the box.
This is probably going to save my life, because I did look into the abyss, and have searched for a way out for 4 years. All I needed this whole time was a man to tell me that it was brave to choose to look. I remember when I decided to follow the thread of betrayal, and it unraveled me as I unraveled it. I will never be the same. But, at least now, I feel like there was a meaning, and when I decided to suffer for the truth, it was right, even if it has destroyed me. At least I had the courage. I love Jordan Peterson. He is a good man. I wish my son would watch him, but we all know 17 year old men won't listen to mom's choice of anything. The dummy. And most women hate him! WTF?
I know this is a 4years ago comment but I wanted to tell you this is all common sense that I figured out when I was 17 so idk what y’all older generations lived if y’all didn’t figure this until late in life, like y’all were dead alive fr I’m not even joking
Jesus Christ is coming back to save us, believe in Him and you have eternal life.
Amen🙏🏿
Keep it up joe ❤️
He is amazing
How to know when will the things go in wrong path? How much stress is too much? I agree that we should accept as many challenges as we can, but how to know how much is too much? Becuase too much stress causes illnesses, and you end up in a worst place then where you began
