12 Rules is an amazing read. Its on my list of books that should be required in school.

As I'm a fan of JP i would like to add polish subtitles to this amazing video. Is that something you be interested in? Thx

Your should mention, where you extract those videos (clips) from, the URL, let's say, the source from where you made this video. So you give credit in a correct way and we know where to look if we want to know the source.

I read 12 rules for life 2 times!

Actually that's not true. When I'm insecure, I am really weak.

Humans are inherently weak at many points in their life. Like old age.

@Bainsworth Oh, geez, don't throw out science. We should each strive for a balance of analytical thinking and narrative thinking. Science is where we get the analysis, and analysis is what eventually gives us permission to change. Narrative, and all it's extended meanings, is what drives change and locks it in. I'm just recently a coach, but I've been deeply thinking about this for fifteen years. (I'd go back to university if I could afford it, but I am 54. Came into JP's work only recently.)

He already has.

Not yet, he is extremely well known among Western intellectuals but he still has a lot more to accomplish in order to go down in history with revolutionary figures like Carl Jung, Nietzsche, Piaget etc. That is why I am very curious of what JBP is planning to do after publishing his 2nd book (sequel to 12 Rules For Life) and finishing up his Biblical Series. I genuinely hope that JBP's 3rd book will be an extension of his ideas in 'Maps of Meaning' instead of writing another self-help book. Don't get me wrong, '12 Rules for Life' is insightful but it is essentially 'Maps of Meaning' from a more simplified, practical viewpoint. This man clearly has way more to offer than just life advice. It's time for some dense abstractions from this man.

RookieN08 He has said his next book is planned to be “12 More Rules”

The idea that THE Joey Diaz follows Jordan Peterson makes me happy. Though, I think this is a joke channel?

Is this the real Joey Diaz?

No shit lmao

That explains the reason why they ask the question "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?"

dont gotta quit the job though

Unfortunately, you grandchild won't know about JBP until you teach him. The leftists hate JBP and won't let him enter any textbook.

There is so to say ,,general confusion,, of many people commenting here.Obviously this gentleman is very intelligent, educated and experienced. He uses knowledge and wisdom of other Masters of psychology as germans Zikmund Freud, Karl Jung, Nietze or phenomenal russian writers Solzenicyn, Dostojevskyj ,also uses knowledge of Christian believe and Buddhism and other sources. It has already been invented though. He summarise and applies it to various life situations which only highly inteligent and intelectual person is capable of = Great J.Peterson

@Centauri Midnight By that time Jordan won't be around and the Philippine left would probably be as radicalized as the western left considering its communist history. It's a shame how a person of this level of intellect isn't quite popular in our country. but if we start introducing this guy to the younger generations maybe he will be. -Philippines

Go get it!!

Rea Kelly I introduced my mom to him lol

My oldest son was 27 when he introduced him to me, his mother, two years ago. I'm 49, educated and I feel like a child when I'm learning from Dr. Peterson, just soaking his words up like a sponge.

That’s beautiful.

My 23 year old son did the same. He speaks highly of Jordan.

@Tiktaalik he changed me and many others for the better. What hateful way will you reply to try and detract from that? If nothing else...he has saved many people's lives. That's more good than you will ever do with the attitude you have right now.

Just the fact that you say you'll keep trying is inspiring enough. At least to me.

Hope your doing better Pablo! God bless you.

Exactly. So much of modern society's behavior is based on unclear thinking. This is Jordan's gift to us.

He does indeed.

Devil Rebel Productions ikr i wish my dad was liek this too but everyone is different my dad hs just ruined my life instead of supporting and helping me

Thank you for your service, I think subscribing to his channel here on KZfaq essential. He has all of his lectures at University of Toronto, free of charge and with no ads. Its priceless to access his intellect in such a personal and useful way.

I feel exactly the same. I went and saw him live in Oxford and it was as if I was sitting down with my father for some home truths

He's the father figure a whole generation of men never had

same here.

Because he's summing up what all the great western intellectuals have said and combining them into an articulated philosophy. It's across the dominance hierarchy of Western intellectuals he's extracted the most important points and is articulating them clearly.

And have dealt with many people with very hard problems to understand.

Me too! Learning so much.

Dont drop out

Look for a psychologist accessible to you! You can do it if you try!!! What I learned from this video is: Don't give up after you fail, just improve your tactics, reset your goal and try again! If you don't suffer now you will suffer later, and suffering later can be like hell but you suffering now will make you stronger to face hell later and survive.

I heard him say in another video here, if I can find it I'll link it here. But, the path to your goal isn't always straight up, or even a straight line. You'll rise up a bit, then fall into a desert. Find a way out of that desert, and you'll rise up to a higher plateau. Then fall waaaay down. Then get back up and go even higher this time. Of course that's not word for word, but that's the best I can do with what I remember about it. That's the idea.

Hey go for it we all are worth it.

One step at a time, my friend.

He is basically trying to get you as a young man to buy into system thats in many ways stacked against you because "Christ"... I dont think thats an intellegent mans "game"...

Agree 💯

Grim Shade at the point where you can derive your own solution

dizkoteck Yeah, I find myself applying a lot of his ideas into my own behaviour. In the last few months I’ve over come addictions, learned how to wake up feeling positive and started being more mindful of the fact the only person who can change you is You!

Grim Shade excuse my bluntness, but how does one become an addict? what drove you to that level of selfishness? Glad you are coming out the other side.

Gary O'Driscoll it’s a personality thing, from a young age I’d be obsessed with Star Wars for example and go through phases of being really into things. Then when you get a bit older it might be excessive weed smoking or a video game addiction. It’s not something you chose but you do realise you’re dependent on things and want to make a change.

Grim Shade its the part where you said it wasn't a choice that I can't grasp. You own the choice of overcoming your addiction, which is a clear sign of formidable strength that you have. But why couldn't it have been an addiction to some sort of self improvement or self betterment Instead of self detriment. Just thinking out loud here, best of luck again Sir.

Correction or Addition: To transcend the physical, one needs to shift his/her mind or consciousness to the spiritual. Jesus Christ said, "seek first the kingdom of heaven, & the righteousness of God, & ALL THINGS will be added to you." Instead of following beautiful but limited & destructive philosophies, we must follow Jesus Christ & receive a true, eternal & meaningful life.

He actually paraphrased Friedrich Nietzsche - " To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering ".

Me too

After my Dad died I haven't had really had a mentor. Think my Dad helped me find JP. :)

I think he needs a dating service.

That statement gave me goosebumps :) The truth is a powerful thing! Glad there's still people out there (like Jordan) who are willing to vocalize it.

That's the truth

I cannot find anything sufficiently meaningful to be compelling or motivating. How does one find a purpose that satisfies?

@@someonesomeone25 aaaaaaah, yes, that's the challenge... Your first sentence actually brought tears to my eyes, coz I've been there (and still am from time to time). I think only a few "lucky" or driven or (fill in the blanks) people find just one purpose in life. The rest of us will have to wrestle with the search... I haven't figured out why that is- yet. Will I, ever? Only the heavens know, really, I think. The times when I'm truly, blissfully happy is when I'm involved in something bigger than myself (volunteering for Habitat for Humanity, etc.), or when I master playing a piece of music (on piano) that makes my soul sing, or sometimes smiling at a stranger and getting involved in a great conversation. My purpose for the past 20years was being the best mother I could be for my kids, doing better than I was done by my parents - I think (I hope) I managed to do a halfway decent job with that. Now I have to re-evaluate and see what works for the next few years. I've been drawn to walk the Camino Santiago de Compostela... we'll see.

that’s only thing that i know about myself ,but i don’t know what i want to learn the most xd how to figure that out? xd

When the obstacles that are between you and the mastery of a subject seem too big to tackle, it might prevent some from developing themselves. When you don't feed the urge to learn, it will wither and die overtime.

@JD Jones What a lazy, arrogant, quite possibly dishonest way to look at it. Everyone has a drive to learn, it just manifests based on their values. Let's pretend you value math. So you learn 20 ways to prove the area of a right angle triangle. What about this hypothetical lazy, arrogant, dishonest individual living a life of denial? They're going to value something. Let's say their name is Freddy, and they value baseball. Freddy can list off all the team names, the major players, quite a bit of history of the sport and a myriad of other details and insights. But Freddy doesn't care about subjects such as math, or learning for learning's sake, so people are puzzled by him and conclude he must just be deeply flawed.

Most people just want a warm place to stay, full belly and sex

I've thought this a great deal of times, but it's about the goal that people wish to follow. It's when they focus on the goal and not the journey that people dont care about knowledge because they know so much about their goal, which inevitably is an incredibly tiny thing, that they ignore the path to actually get there.

I thought the same, Mike. However, we have to let go of the past. I know it's not easy, when you think of what might have been. What I can say, is that Being aware of this material can change your life, if you let it. I was relatively ignorant of why things turn out the way they do. It's now Something I am working on every day, and this is far better than living in ignorance.

It's never too late. Why can't it be a huge help in your life now?

Well , I'm awesome now, i could have been awesome sooner.

hahahahahhaha

Mike... 30 years ago would have made a vast difference for me as well... And I have bought a lot of self help books and spent thousands on seminars to get out of ruts... its been useful... but not at the core like Jordan's work... It would have been nice to have been awesome sooner. Thanks for the comment... onward and upward..

Children are nothing more than a social achievement.

You have 24 / 7 access to "the school of Jordan Peterson" - his KZfaq videos, other KZfaq videos in which he was interviewed, the transcripts of all those videos, his publications and his website. Make notes from them, copy the web links and organize them in Google Docs, MS OneNote, Evernote or the like. You won't be forced to graduate, don't have to sweat grades or finals. Best success!

Totally true. We need more professors that will be honest in this way!

The college professor we all have!

I don’t hate him for his fathers failure. I’m having difficulties with my dad.

I live in Toronto and I wish I went to the UofT before they made him leave because he's too damn smart.

@Loosen No, he travels to do them instead. He doesn't need a university, at this point, in order to influence.

Hi, hope you’re good. Sorry for your loss and hope it really got easier, at least a little bit

I'm terribly sorry, my mom committed suicide last year. I completely understand. We need to have faith and pray and things will get better.

​@@tyler91690so sorry for your loss 😢

how is it going?

How's it going?

The situation went real hard, many times I thought of going back to my job, i found my self in hell, but now i am in full control , in terms of finances i am running my own business so with that comes more income so more responsibilities, and its a still going on struggle but this time its with meaning, Jordan was right, meanings shape life so ur finances.

He doesn't mean just quit your job if you're unhappy. He's suggesting getting a plan and implementing it, so that your end result and goal is that you've escaped that hell with relative low risk if you can help it.

It doesn't get any easier, you just get stronger!!! Good luck with moving forward 👍👍👍

The fact that you’re even aware is growth. You can only go up from here. Good luck.

Hi Henri Moll you are not alone.

All the Best Big Fellow!!!

Yes i understand .I call it my very own cage. I carefully constructed it over many years with many bad choices. But the truth is stronger and endless and always there just waiting for us to connect with it.

You put yourself there, you best believe you can pull your damn self out. At times you'll fail in trying to move forward, but it's better than giving up. Keep your head up, keep your heart strong.

Knowing you’re the creator of your own misery is a powerfully humbling experience and typically the more aware you are of how life is typically what you make of it and that output or what you get out of life insofar as material things is empty and soul crushing if you’re of the mind that’s going to make you happy or “better” in my opinion the payout of truth is typically growth and growth (growing pains ) hurts but you’re bigger and better as a result

Your comment brought tears to my eyes. Not out of sympathy but to hear the courage and honesty in your comment. Please keep going, face your demons and make it to the best person you can and are created to be. Thank you for your comment.

Jordan views: 1 million / Georiey Shore views: 10 billion Happy people: 1 million / Sad miserable people: 10 billion SEE WHAT I DID THERE?

No, happiness is a feeling, like excitment and it comes as a bi product of the positive outcomes which are inevitable when you pursue a meaningful path. However I have to say, meaning, taking responsibility does not always correlate to happiness at all. Often is results in deep uncomfortabelness, feeling rejected and depressed. I am sorry to say it but it does. That is the necessary suffering that comes with it. But I can garauntee that you weel feel much happier down the line, when you look back and say "well I did everything I could to do the right thing". I was challenging the unethical and hyper political incidents in my workplace, everyone including my partner at the time was against me. Made me feel like shit, alienated me and acted like I was an idiot. Well guess what? I am in the best place mentally I have ever been now. When I look back at the hard times, I take great comfort in knowing that I didn't spend my time sat in the corner crying letting the world around me fall apart. (Although sometimes I did). For the most part, I SHOWED UP. I sat in the cab of ambulances parked around the corner hiding from passers by whilst crying my eyes out. Then I wiped the tears off my face and drove to the next call. That is what Jordan taught me. So whilst it may be hard in the short term, and at the time, I promise it does you the world of good in the future knowing that you tried to be the best person you possibly could, even when tragedy came at you at a more frequent rate than hot dinners. Pick up your load, and bare it. Go forth into the battle against your demons. Whilst you throw every single thing you can at your mental health difficulties (therapy, mood books, meditation, exercise, routine, diet, medication whatever) work on being a better person too. I can now say, that when it all went wrong for me I STILL SHOWED UP. Jordan Peterson saved and changed my life. I wish you all the best of success.

Dr. Peterson.
