Thank you for this. I was thinking my suffering from my abusive spouse was their fault for hitting me, so I was going to leave them.. but now I know it’s all my fault, everything bad is always my fault, just like he always tells me.. and so now I don’t feel bad anymore, by recognizing everything bad in my life is always my fault, I feel in control, so I don’t need to leave him, I just need to stop mouthing off :) thanks JBP :) I need to stop with the “it’s his fault, he could choose not to him me” and switch to “it’s my fault, I chose to marry him, I need to stop blaming him for hitting me”. What a great philosophy. I was so foolish thinking I should assign blame based on the millions of different causes for each and every effect.. it’s so much simpler to always blame myself for everything, makes me feel much more powerful :)

I felt like he was talking right to me!!!

@@wolfparty4234 right?? I was always thinking “life is very complex, every effect has multiple causes” But now, thanks to JBP, I realize “life is ridiculously simple, every effect is caused by me” I don’t need to blame my abusive husband for hitting me and go through a nasty divorce, I just need to clean my room..

@@whysocurious7366 that's not what he's saying and you know it lol or you're a kid that doesn't understand much, idk 😂

@@dsmithprogrammer well, I guess either I misinterpreted his message, or you did, or he was very vague and left plenty of room for both of our interpretations. Actually no, I know it’s that last thing. JBP was vague enough for both of our interpretations.

this is a toxic POV in most applications tbh. yadda yadda nihilism and what not and acceptance is useful but somethings are unacceptable. some pain is not controllable. some circumstances are shitty despite your best effort, degree of acceptance, and will to change it. your mind does not have domain over everything that happens in your life... IMHO :)

@@sydneyyeg Peterson is a tool of the establishment that wants docile people who will blame themselves and accept suffering. Jordan is not your friend ;)

@@VeganSemihCyprus33 That depends on your perspective. If you accept responsibility and still blame yourself for everything then it's a problem, but in our modern world where we seek out and surround ourselves with validation, then blame everyone else for our problems instead of doing something about it (which is often but not always the case, to be sure) this call to simply understand our place among our own problems and step up to do what we can is rather refreshing. We live in a country and political system entirely dependent on personal responsibility, yet we have become increasingly dependent in the state and blame of the "other"... I think this message is powerful and timeless for the most part. It's rooted in hundreds, if not thousands of years of truths from across the world. Don't be docile- to your own weaknesses- is an important message.

@@sydneyyeg You are right to a great degree, but way too many people (and an increasing number of younger ones) do not accept responsibility for their own problems. Stay up late, drink stimulants all day, absorb themselves onto their phones, don't learn social skills and how to take risks and respond to failure, and enter the world more ignorant and afraid, then blame the system for being unfair. Yes, some pain is out of your hands, but his message that we don't even know what we're capable of if we were to not waste our time.... having worked with young people since the release of smartphones, I can assure you that this has become an epidemic. More kids graduate high school now with the mental and social maturity of 14 year Olds, but with massive overexposure to negativity and pain; of course they are not going to be hard-working, responsible risk-takers. They are anxious, stressed, overwhelmed, and lack ambition to do anything about it (increasingly, not always). So they escape back into their safe phone world and/or take two or three extra years to gain experience before figuring things out, if they ever do. The message of personal responsibility and balance is so important, but what we are inundated with more and more is "you deserve what you want because you're special and you want it" and "you have value because you have feelings, regardless of what you contribute and what level of responsibility you take for your actions." You can't have a solid social structure or democracy when these characteristics become the norm. Good luck out there- have a nice day.

I am the most famous man on YouTub! This is not bragging! This is the truth! The truth will set you free, dear daca

Why not both?

If I do both, I can know about myself and other instead of just about myself.. in a world where myself and others exist, isn’t it important to analyze both myself and others??

@@whysocurious7366 i dont think its just knowing others I think its just comparing i believe. He says we shouldn't compare since sometimes we focus too much on others and we can feel like less or get jealous of others who are better or doing better than us.

@@Dacademeca then he should say “don’t compare yourself to others TOO MUCH” It comes off a lot like he’s saying “pay no attention to the powerful people running the world, just focus solely on yourself” when he says “do not compare yourself to others”. I think that’s awful advice. You should strive to be better than yourself yesterday and strive to be better than others. Better advice would be: Try to be better than you were yesterday, and don’t obsess over the powerful people harming all of us, but don’t ignore them either :)

We need to act in a way that is more consistent with our morals and values.

I probably never will be and you know what? That doesn't bother me anymore.

Real bummer that give so much platforming to pseudo intellectuals like Peterson and Rogan

@@calmagnum3186 Peterson is for the light. Rogan is the dark

@@calmagnum3186 Why would you consider jordan peterson as a pseudo intellectual can you enlighten me please ?

@@nadirozgurkelekstudent77 I won't go over it here cause it would trigger all the Peterson fanboys in this comments section, but PhilosophyTube recently released a great video about this exact thing, which basically boils down to Peterson consistently saying he has an objective point of view, which he backs up with a series of subjective experiences to justify it. He promises that there's a path to objectivity for everyone, which is clearly untrue in light of his many contradictory viewpoints. Once again, I'm not going in depth, but the video I mentioned does a great job covering this topic

You only can think form the data you have gathered can one think without data ?

Sounds like Donald Trump. So hated for standing up against an establishment.

@@rancosteel Unca Donald is an actor, he's friends with many politicans and he's rich. Why do you feel the need to idolize him?

@@frankisakwaltari3300 because he was the Great White Hope. I love rich people. I’ve never received a paycheck from a poor person. He doesn’t have any friends, that is why I like him. He is not the POTUS anymore and the DNC hacks are still going after him. I loved how he exposed them as do nothing politicians who are socialists and they have hate for the US Constitution. Stop being a SIMP for the DNC. They are nothing but race hustlers.

Suffering can be alleviated by the ascription of meaning, it actually starts to feel good to push yourself for the right reasons! Does this mean we can destroy suffering all together by ascribing higher purpose? Such as growth and self betterment for the sake of a better world... I think so :)

@@amandaolson8426 interesting take and I agree, is there some specific you derive meaning from?

@@amerdeepsingh9169 compassion, responsibility, evidence, pursuit of growth, respect for the things beyond our understanding.. there are many things. But, mostly for me it is about doing what you can from where you are and remaining humble enough not to get ahead of yourself - others will always have more experience and it is important to listen and discern from a place of curiosity and truth seeking

@@amandaolson8426 Thats very nice, you seem like a person with good character.

Welcome to the noble side of history.

Mass shooters are narcissists who flew into a narcissistic rage. www.sfgate.com/health/article/Killers-in-mass-shootings-linked-by-narcissistic-5543262.php Apparently, narcissists, psychopaths and sociopaths have less gray matter in a part of the cerebral cortex called the left anterior insula so they don't feel empathy and guilt. (People with PTSD show abnormalities in the hippocampus, amygdala, and medial prefrontal cortex, which is an entirely different matter. Some defenders of narcissists seem to think that the brain is just one big lump.) www.livescience.com/37684-narcissistic-personality-disorder-brain-structure.html www.livescience.com/39904-why-psychopaths-lack-empathy.html Mass shootings cause massive suffering. Why isn't Jordan Peterson talking about this, calling for MRI scans to be compulsory so normal people would be forewarned that they're dealing with a secretly sadistic being? For a comprehensive list of the personality traits of those who lack empathy (you might unknowingly be dealing with one), google OUTOFTHEFOG. outofthefog.website/traits I've learned that the US Military and Secret Service, and even Israel, the home of Krav Maga, are learning Systema (which is a combat system tested and proven by the Russian Special Forces for survival during war times, unlike Jiu Jitsu, Boxing, Karate, and other sport martial arts, which are all exclusively for one-on-one). I wish Systema were taught in schools (starting from kindergarten) instead of useless P.E. If everyone were skilled in self-defense, there would be less assaults, kidnappings and rapes because evil-minded people would hesitate to attack anyone, knowing they'll be in for a real fight, battling for their own lives. Here's a link about Systema: marylandsystema.com/systema-russian-martial-arts-is-one-of-the-secret-services-strongest-weapons/

There are plenty of self-help author who preach responsibility without a poison pill of traditionalism.

@@steven5054 genuinely curious, please share your gripe with traditionalism.

@@steven5054 I totally agree, although for me the issue isn't with traditionalism, it's with the blatant agenda behind all of his works(though traditionalism might be a part of that). Jordan Peterson is a great speaker(and presumably writer), and he's used that skill to communicate some very interesting and genuinely helpful - though not at all original - ideas. These ideas and the way he packages them are extremely appealing, specifically to young men who are working their way through the modern world we live in, in fact they seem specifically tailored to attract such people. But as you've said, every idea or bit of information he shares comes with a poison pill - every idea he communicates is needlessly accompanied by a small dose of his world view or political opinions which are made to seem like they are integral to the idea itself. This would be a problem in itself regardless of what views he was trying to inject, as it's just insidious and manipulative. The fact that these injections are often poisonous themselves only makes things worse

Do mean his family trying to sell BS diet advice? Or telling the world that medical science has killed more people than it has saved and then saying maybe I’m wrong or maybe I’m not.... Real deep scholar isn’t he...

@@gentle2587 yes he did on the Brett Weinstein show. I know right?

Yes spot on 😇🙌🏻

@@robg4472 You can take this truth for what it is without supporting everything this person has ever said and done. If people are over 50% good, are they good people? Or do they have to be 100% good? If you go through Peterson's work you can find controversial, even negative stuff, but much more is necessary and positive overall, especially in a world/culture where wise father figures have become increasingly hard to find. His messages have have lot of credence. Taking food advice from a psychologist is your fault, not his 😉.

@@JohnDavid-kc9kt the poster mentioned responsibility and truth of which the good doctor has demonstrated neither. Telling the truth 51% of the time doesn’t make you an honest person. And being a public persona with some influence , his followers will take his diet advice. A responsible person would recognize that and act accordingly.

He thinks about thinking. He's a philosopher. Check out the biblical series. Its highly philosophical.

Well. Hes many things. I guess you could say he's not a professional philosopher. He's a psychologist by trade. His philosophy would be something along the lines of, pick the most difficult thing you can think of. And pursue that to gain maximum meaning. Very western. Good stuff. Almost stoic

Same I had to run it back

So kind and generous!

financial literacy is 20% knowledge and 80% doing shit, you can gain the intelligence. but that being said it doesn't mean that you look down on others for not being successful, it's just that those people who are less successful shouldn't complain and say it's everyone else's fault that they can't get ahead, if your goals are having a larger family of 5 kids you're not going to be as successful as somebody who doesn't have any kids. Everyones life and values are their own.
