I love cleaning my room. Also I take cold showers every day now and listen to my conscience. I procrastinate way less and am much more disciplined and goal oriented and connected to my masculinity. Thanks Peterson for being the father I needed.

Many channels have this vid but this one has the best thumbnail.

Cleaning your room is also a good place to start when you are inert, especially from depression. You can have at least SOME sphere of influence in which to work, which slowly chips away at the inertia, and can grow larger incrementally over time.

Cleaning up your room means two things mainly: 1) structuring your environment by yourself (which will make you feel less powerless), 2) getting rid of ballast (essentially setting you more free). What many people do not realize is how material stuff restrains their freedom to go anywhere and do anything a great deal.

I'm a messy person. Because of JBP I'm cleaning my room more often than before and it works for me. I'm still far from being an orderly person but when I tidy up my room a little my mind immediately starts working better

Clean up your dragon, slay the girl and win the room!

Recently discovered this man. I Definitely liked his teachings and the way he talks, very talented.

My house is always a mess but my closets are always organised! I never understood why this was the case with me. And I have a lot of clothes. After this video a kind of explanation came into my mind. My closet is the connection between me and the outside world. And I'm always presentable and I always put my happy persona when I'm outside. But on the inside. Oh man the inside it's like the rest of my home. Hell. Unorganized, confused.

My room is clean, in terms of everything being put away. But I'm not totally organized, at least as not as organized as I could be. Thanks for inspiring me to try to be a better person, husband, father, son and sibling.

Before I heard his explanation here I understood it a bit different, as we say in German, "Fege zuerst vor Deiner eigenen Tuer." What means, sweep in front of your own door first, before you tell others what to do. And I agree with this. If everybody would do so, everything would be "clean".

I LOVE listening to this. I’ve heard it several times and it hits me like a nail every time. I feel like he is speaking to me directly. Thank you Jordan.

Lmao at that thumbnail 😂😂😂

I started to clean my room as he started talking about cleaning your room.

One of the most tiresome things I can imagine in the terms of demotivation in families - and one or two times I experienced it from my family - is that when one person wants to do something good (for entire group) and the other persons marginalise it, and demotivate it, and create problems out of it even before the person who get the idea formulate all the plan they already formulate all the obstacles you can see :( They beheve as if doing a good things was disturbing their peace or disturbing their lazyness or their not caring to do anything creative - some ppl think that all their home needs is their earnings, and thats all to do with home and with kids :) One or two times I felt as if my family did not liked the idea that I m going to do smt good. Like some of my family did not liked the idea that I will take some responsibility and creativeness and I will be doing smt for the profit of the group (my group). Its like some kind of jealousy or smt ? Its like I sometimes felt demotivation from my family or ignoring of my ideas about improvements of our home and family. And its like as if they knew that the idea was good but marginalised and ridiculed and ignored it still as if they were afraid of them praising this idea. For them they better like the idea of me in need of being taken care of by them and that way listen to them obviously which they expect all the time, and they marginalise my ideas about my own input to household to improve it for all group.

I just love this analogy!! He’s the best. 🙏🏻

As this is very related to the video and Dr. Peterson's approach to self-improvement, I would like to let you know that he developed the online program “Self Authoring” bit.ly/SelfAuthoring that helps you to analyze your past, to get your present life in order and to identify a more rewarding path for your future. It’s not free, but it has been proven to work in studies performed with university students. (Sorry, I make this sound like some toothpaste ad). Jordan Peterson Fan Channel is an official affiliate of the program, so if you follow the link through, you will not only support Jordan Peterson and his endeavors but also this channel in a small way - and most importantly yourself. Thank you and all the best!

Oh Jordan spot on with this, I started cleaning my room when I was a kid and boy did my family make me suffer and they just kept at it!

Love those thumbnails

I think you have experienced it so badly and there is so conviction in your voice, Professor !!! Really true understanding, especially in this science oriented era, you indulge in religion as well as philosophy, too......

I always assumed the point of 'clean your room' was that an organized room generally leads to a more organized mind

my mother was lawyer and she educated me in how to have order in the office. she always got piles of papers but every pile was about different topic - civil cases, criminal cases - and different time. like finished cases, new cases etc...

Thank Goodness for People Like JP to Uplift Us! And Give us All Hope! We should have been taught this in 1st Grade.

Jordan saved my life !

Thank you for using a Skyrim background for the thumbnail.

Very thought provoking

I never heard him explain it completely. I always thought it was just a jumping off point to do more important tasks and give you a taste of accomplishments. But instead of jumping off of cleaning your room, he tries everything back to it. This task also reveals that in order to perfect one things you have to improve almost everything. Reminds me of the Bible verse that talks about how if a person commits one sin they commit them all.

Dude these thumbnails are amazing

Cleaning the room(s), decluttering etc. is cleaning/decluttering the heart & mind.

I used to worked in toxic enviroment. My room is the only place I missed everytime I went from work. I always keep it as a place where I can live in peace after being emotionally abused all day at work... My room is a place where I can control, I put flowers, I organized my room and cleaned it frequently...that is how I managed to woke up fresh every morning, knowing thay I always have a place to habe some peace.

He’s just a brilliant man. Period. What a MIND he has! Brilliant!

FANTASTIC THUMBNAIL XD

this channel has the best thumbnails ever as of rickesh singh's thoughts in october 2022

Damn these thumbnails are just getting better and better every time

Roughly Speaking.

Very powerful. I started cleaning after years of meditation. And Lord did I have an awakening. I started ordering everything. I made a clothing capsule. Give all my old clothes away started attracting new clothes. I cleaned op and reorganized every space. I took my pillows and started buying pillowcases that are smaller then my actual pillowcases (makes you look richer). I attracted a free chair, cleaned my ceilings, painted my doorknobs etc. Cleaned up my kitchen and realized I had similar utensils (amazing). And then I started outside. I have a parkinglot and started talking to my landlord (he gave me a terraschairs and tabld). Started talking to my neighbours. And now we are going to buy a swimming pool.And now I'm invited for a trip in his cabriolet . 2 months folks, amazing. I feel rich and I'm not. Clean up your room.

my clothes are arranged such way that the ones to wear at home - old flannel shirts and tracksuits and sweaters - are in a wardrobe in a room while the ones to wear outside - to be seen in them in profesional manner, what I call "office suits" - are in a wardrobe near the main entrance to my house.

What happens if you do not have a room? Homelessness and dysfunctional relationships often dictate that people do not have a room to themselves. Some peoples lives are dominated by their lack of a private space.

Pure gold!

That skyrim thumbnail tho hahahahahha

Exactly!

Wow, agree.

Finally !!! ♦Jordan hit the magic word !!! 🎯 THE *_THE_* key to it *all* !!! ♦ 5:25

VERY SMART WAY TO TELL...IF U WANT TO CHANGE THE WORLD....START FROM UR ROOM!!!

my mom is excited i watched this vid

Wow , reminds me of Carl Jung. So glad to find him.

My lobster took an arrow to the knee.

Albert Einstein said: "If a chaotic table stands for a chaotic character, what is a empty table stands for?

Like the Skyrim reference!

4:45-5:38

of all of this... I hadnt considered my family's impact on me fixing up my room... hm. Ive adjusted my habits to fit the wants of other people in the house. To an unhealthy degree I think. I guess I have some stuff to rethink about this concept.

My like is most of all for the thumbnail

✨

Before cleaning room, chop wood, after cleaning room, chop wood.

Ive struggled with depression n truth is i let my life spiral n my room at times is a disgrace

I'm a thoughtful, deep, and articulate person. However, I must be a total simpleton when it comes to psychological effects. Meaning, my subconscious must be more of an insulator than a conductor. For, to suggest my subconscious makes an association between my room and the outside world is, as far as I can tell, simply untrue. However, I'm not disagreeing with Dr. Peterson, for I DO SEE value in cleaning my room, or my car, or whatever. The state of the environment we spend time in has an impact on us, and reflects our inner-most self.

A great metaforical story, which many smash in the heads of those trying to do it different, than those with a need to smash others with it............... Which have caused many to instead of doing something different than the "normalnorm" in new ways, to just give up. Cause smashing others with the bad stuff (what you dont do the "right way") some think they do, by organising things differently, isnt good enough, for the rigid "normnormal" smashers. Wise man, if one just listen to some of what he says metaforicly its really great, but most people pick out things and screw them to what he not says, and sometimes, he says things, not either he, can-would, see beyond his own cultural belongings.

These are all esoteric occult techniques and they are brilliant and they work. They have nothing to do with modern science which has dismissed everything ancient and occult related quite unscientifically and without proper research.

So that why you better not work in your room

if tghere is no getting the gold part Im very disappointed

Taken from someone in this comment section: You now have the decision to make, clean your room, or don't. Only you can make this decision.

#Respecc

Problamy the only person on earth that can tell me to clean my room and therefore be ready to fight the devils in my family that might go back a looong time. AND having me agreeing with him.. Like wtf

Does this also refer to people who are _not_ control freaks?

This is SUCH a basic truth. You can’t shine like the jewel you are if you’re sat smothered in a cowpat...

Yea prof I still wont do it

Skyrim ❤️

Chaos ≠ evil

DUH!

Just clean your damn room. hahahaha

It's a ritual , it's an opportunity to Unify mind , body , spirit.

Okay dude sheesh, I'll clean my room.

i am just going to live in a tent sounds a a lot easier

How about; "keep your room clean and Clean up our side (though we are only there 1x/month) too and pay all our utility bills (even if we know you do not make full use of everything and the house does not belong to you). Also, you cannot have another dog, nor can you cook fish or anything else that may 'stink' in the kitchen, can't wear shoes in your casita, you are not allowed to have any friends over, Clean and flush our toilets once a week, remove a cup of ice everyday from the refrigerator, don't forget to take out the garbage, among any other incruing housekeeping responsibilities they can toss my way to shorten my free time. Since I've moved to Nevada my freedom is cycling; Since October of 2021 to the here and now, I have had only two opportunities to ride my bike?????? I live in a wealthy community who bluntly expressed that after they met me, they did not accept my presence. Just Awful; I understand why wealthy people LIVE IN GATED COMMUNITIES...the snobs and hypocrites they actually are; go figure!

DAMN!!! I know IIIIII DOOOOOO KNOOOOOW . . . It easyer to burn it down to the ground than clean it boy!!! :/ :/ :/

did homie just reference fma

The clickbait but i understand the lectures

The devils in your house go back generations.

Is the thumbnail a screenshot from Skyrim? WTF?

✔👍

You are a God amongst men for that fumbnail

Is he ok?Hes genius but he’s definitely going through it

Why does he sound so nervous and like he's about to cry?!

The downvoters all have messy rooms

Jordan makes the point that God only knows what you need to fix up your room, (mind set) and this is true, and only by surrendering all to God, and living in his divine will can you over come the complexities of your inner self and cope with those around you. It is a growing process, But as it says in the Our Father prayer thy will be done, it is only by trying to live in God's will that we become truly free. I guess a simple analogy would be that of traffic lights, we know that stopping at red avoids danger and therefore allows freedom to move on the road, same with living in the Divine will. If everyone was living by the ten commandments anyone could go out for a walk at 3 am in the morning knowing they'd be perfectly safe.

Alright already Kermit I'll clean it. Man, sesame street is getting weirdly pushy these days.

💥So what he's saying is..♥⬇ 🔥 Ephesians 5:15-17 🔥 So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. 16 Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. 17 Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.
