- In this lecture, I begin using a particular piece of dramatic art -- the Disney film Pinocchio -- to provide a specific example of the manner in which great mythological or archetypal themes inform and permeate narrative.
Music is Mozart Symphony 41: Jupiter.

Its like, “so you fought off a dwarf? Who cares? There’s like 10 more.”
That’s life, man. That’s life.
-JBP
This resonates with me lol funny and true
Because I don't know you, this is a direct quote, and there was no further context given with it, I can't tell if you made this comment to be sarcastic or because you like it. I choose to be optimistic in regards to which is the more likely option, but I suppose I'm leaving this comment here just because I could be wrong.
@@ryanstarkweather3625 I don’t think you should care what I think, fellow. I do like JBP, but by opinion doesn’t affect the truth he’s put into the world, it would still be true regardless :)
* looks out the back door at the long grass I haven't mowed... Dwarves dance derisively in the thatch.
@@prybarknives Same, Don, let's do it tomorrow, how about that?
The 20% of what Dr. Peterson says that I understand is profoundly life changing.
Pareto's Principle
So relatable 🤣
@Kaelan Barr like Tao Te Ching
Sometimes I play his lectures, or the clips of his lectures, on 0.75x speed to get the most out of them
Kaelan Barr 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm a single dad and have faced many challenges in my life. I've been playing these lectures in the background while my six year old son and I do crafts and such. JBP possesses the wisdom that I wish my absent father would have impressed upon me at a young age. It may not make complete sense since a lot of these ideas are very complex but I just want to expose my son to this on some level because I am so grateful towards JBP.
M V testimonies like yours is exactly what Prof Peterson lives for
Its been two years since you committed this, you doing the crafts and caring about you what your son is exposed to is exactly what JP was teaching. I think you where exposing him to exactly what Jp was saying. Keep it up we need men to raise men who understand how to be leaders and the head of their homes or our society is doomed. Jp is a blessing but you are doing your part to by being a good father.
More power to you mate.
But hes transphobic...
Lol jokes
@@PCP1992 I was going to say...... lol
The movie JBP mentions at 1:00:53 is called Boda Secreta (Secret Wedding). It is an Argentinian movie, and can be found in full on UA-cam.
Went through almost all comment section just to find this! Thanks.
Thank you! I was hoping someone somewhere knew what movie that was.
Thank you kind soul
FUCKIN thank you!
Thank you
This is what I do. After work, I get my notebook out, crack a beer open and just watch. I take notes if I find something interesting then write about what I thought the lecture means at the end. It's incredibly therapeutic.
Great plan!!! A little JBP a day keeps the crazy away.
This is why self education is superior when the person stays motivated to learn. Beer and a lazyboy :D oh and also no massive student debt when you're done XD and the fact that JBP puts this online for free is insanely generous -- being able to pause, and rewind, is seriously awesome.
But that is what academics do. They read papers from their field of study written by other people. Then they plan papers of their own and lectures based on published work
Drew Cut the beer which destroys your brain cells and drink somethibg neuroregenerative instead, why would you destruct your physiology while seeking to build your psyche, it makes totally no sense, the act is so good and you spoil the temple your body is with legal poison, that is not love, and it distorts the very tool your psyche used to express itself and make the world comprehebsible with, if you regard your psyche as holy then the body IS the temple and just as holy, not religiously but symbolically (or religiously if you want)
I love this so much... I do the same and it is very therapeutic.
This is like the parenting lesson most of are generation never got because are moms and Dads were to busy working and been mad at each other.
I was thinking about it the other day and it's quite spot on. One of the multiple values i think people find in Dr Peterson's work, including me, is some sort of practical guiding structured knowledge/wisdom. Even if i can't see how someone can walk out of any video without learning tremendous things, i have the impression that what we take from here is essential. Say, a solid structure to build upon not anything you can do without in life. Maybe one of the manners to pay what we owe is to extract every bit of value in this videos... And Patreon lol.
I definitely agree. As a 25 year old relatively smart but kinda drifting dude I feel like Peterson is actually making me go into the belly of the whale, so to speak. Who knows, maybe everything will be shattered again at some point, but Peterson is definitely the first person to really make me understand the values and the value of those values, that the education system and those working/fighting Moms and Dads were unable to convey properly.
Valentino Guilot Griffith did everything wrong
Not everything he actually did a lot right. He a symbol of trying to achieve the extraordinary things and always looking up. He also a symbol of making horrible sacrifices in the middle of suffering and becoming a monster
I was recently thinking that it seems children are raised by the state once they reach 4-5 years old. And they may be raised by babysitters even before that. They spend around 6 hours a day 5 days a week at (usually) public schools, and later spend even more time at school. The parents are supposed to have more control over their kids than the school administrators, but I don't think it's unreasonable to believe teachers and staff of schools take on a broken kind of parenthood. It may have worked for some time, but not any more it seems. Just another societal problem.
22:26 - Reflex versus Conscious choice/representation.
27:15 - Jordan Peterson on how he handles his son and daughter. (funny)
36:20 - Reward for doing some good/paying attention to something that your fellows are proud of.
39:09 - If you don't have your child socialized by the time they are 4, you can't rectify it.
47:05 - Competitions and cooperation. You're trying to win, but at the same time you're cooperating. That's society, you're cooperating, that's the big enclosure, and within that there are regulated competitions. (Anku rejects this structure and wins by any means necessary, he also takes advantage of the natural expectation for cooperation (too an extent)).
55:18 - Having a goal, and moving towards it yields positive emotion.
58:40 - Writer of Pinnochio and collaboration of artistic geniuses to tell a good story.
1:03:45 - Story of a child having dreams/nightmares.
1:20:23 - We have achieved so much technological advancement/advances in other fields of science et cetera, but we are still unwise.
1:30:42 - Unit 731 and Alexander Pope
1:35:49 - Story of woman who had nothing going for her, but still chose to help others who were worse off.
1:43:25 - Jiminy Cricket in Pinnochio, his role as the conscience in of Pinnochio and how he turns from fool to saviour. (Also the fact the he is an insect/bug, and your conscience is something that bugs you).
1:52:38 - Marionettes, what they are and how they relate to humans.
1:58:37 - Nature, Culture and you.
2:04:26 - Divinity of the individual and the law's respect for that divinity. Jordan Peterson once again highlights that he looks at what people do and not at what they say.
wow! Thanks!
@@d68st90 my pleasure.
Thanks!
Thanks... muchas gracias.
Thank you!
I started watching Peterson lectures in 2016.
I was alone and in a dead end job.
Could hardly afford my own apartment.
In five years- after doing the self authoring program- I got a graduate degree, completed a career change doubling my income, met my now wife, bought a home, and I just rocked my 3 month son to sleep.
He’s just as man, but damn does this lecture series and self authoring work if you do it honestly and courageously.
That's awesome to hear mate :)
💜
Great job becoming a great man.
He Saved me too brother.
Nice to hear about that, congratulations brother
That's amazing man, I bought the whole suite and completed the present authoring section rather quickly but have found myself procrastinating with the future authoring program, great to hear about your success it inspires me to keep on going. I would love to know though, how often in those five years did you go back to your future authoring to read over and reapply it to yourself?
We are so lucky to have such an intellectually generous person sharing his knowledge for free. Thank you Dr. Peterson.
Antonio Silva and luckier still that Peterson was discovered after bill C16 became a thing. He could've remained unknown had history gone just a bit differently.
so i guess thanks to all the SJW and bill C16 for introducing me to new ideas that improve my life? :D
right?@@defaultstate4536 what a gift and blessing.
I agree with this in a big way.
Antonio Silva I think someone this valuable cant help being discovered. In this case it was Bill 16 etc., but it’s only a matter of time until true brilliance comes to light. He was destined to... essentially “prophesy” for lack of a better word.
A new Jordan Peterson video is always a good way to brighten up the day
Not a potters fan but my cousin is. COYI
Haha good to know! Which team is the "I" in that then?
Irons.
Do you know the name of the piece at the beginning?
Les Webster It reminds me of Monty python, and I imagine a big foot stomping down at the end😊
"If you're harmless, you're not virtuous. You're just harmless. If you're a monster and you don't act monstrously, then you're virtuous."
Of all evil I deem you capable: Therefore I want good from you. Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws.
Groosham grange comes to mind as well...
Disgusting Christian morality that places humanity as low and debased. One of Peterson's many intellectual blights that he would be better off rejecting.
Often to simply graze over your well composed reply, and move along with their ignorant selves
Was raised taught to be as harmless and unoffensive as possible. The anxiety nearly killed me, as it continues to suck the life out of other members of my family. Thing about being harmless is you become a parasite who depends on others to be “human”, if you’re lucky. Best night of my life was when it finally struck me; “what if I just actually BE selfish and aggressive? Would I actually be bad?”
Oddly enough; at least with my personality, the more selfish and grabby-grabby I am, the more I’m able to exercise wanton generosity and manic positivity. When I’m caught up on being a suffering harmless victim, is when I’m actually at my most bitter and resentful.
Selfishness isn’t just one thing like people think it is.
This is human privilege to be able to stream his lectures. The thirst for knowledge is real, almost as real as pain.
More real than pain.
Yea it's some resource to have access too..
Im only in my 40s & it was encyclopedias in my day & the Guinness book of records annual
Damn. Well said. I didnt realize, I was starving.
The thirst my friend, is a form of pain. An unyielding harkening to expose yourself to the ugly and beautiful nature of the world we exist in. Wisdom being a kind of burden and death being a sort of release from it.
Totally agree
Fantastic. This is quality education.
Fuck your pronouns :D
Imitation of SJW
It's when someone tries to counter arguments with appeal to subjective emotion or interpretation which does not correspond to reality in most cases.
For example you offer strong representation of reality incompasing nuance and come up with maybe not as comforting conclusions as a result of that.
But the opposite side instead of dealing with actual contents of the argument relapses into narrow subjective interpretation of once stance and repeats same argument in cycle.
This constant repetition of same narrative and lack of will to engage with actual argument causes frustration because no matter what you do conversation cannot develop. As a result meme was born to give picture to that frustration as "But muh respegt" or "but muh holy buk" or "but muh race".
It's not limited to sjw. It also goes for alt-rightist or any other ideologues when their ideology is being broken apart. In that light replase into ideological structures looks like irrational defense mechanism which looks ridiculous. Drowning man grabbing of straw. Therefor the mocking misuse of grammar used in the memes.
Example of this can be kraut and tea video "but muh holy buk". Or "but muh nazi memes" to point how ridiculous alt-right is. While format is a bit different is same intent.
muh holy book
I find this very interesting! But his sessions are long, i still havent seen any breaks :) It reminds me about what that protesterwoman said to Jordan Peterson, that she had seen all of his material online. Yeah right :) I mean im myself very fascinated by his lessons, but to watch it all and digest it would take me years.
BIG thank you for letting us plebs enjoy this!
Really Digging that avatar!
Pleabiens unite
Till my fucking fields before I conscribe the lot of you.

It’s crazy how much I am learning about myself, and the world through Jordan from a physiological perspective.
Before you clean your room take your comment apart and clean it up..
@@stickitupyourasteric hahaha. Yeah typos suck but they are at the bottom of my hierarchy of things that matter
Discovered this series April 2019. Now every time I have time it's all do. Feels illegal getting this lectures for free. To me he's a rock star of a professor.
I could not afford to go to college. These courses are very thought provoking. Thanks for understanding the power of open source, free flowing information. Learning and growing.
Trust me when I say, 99.9% of college classes in any subject are NOT like this. Most you can read a boring text book to get what the professor will say. JP is unique and very special. He is a jewel among men, and a *true* teacher.
Believe me, college has non of this info
This is infinitely more useful and important than both of my Masters degrees.
I love that I can live vicariously through his students on youtube :)
jasmineflower Exactly. UA-cam is becoming a strong educational resource.
It's great. Free college.
And I'm not being an ass, I'm being truthful. I don't care for 'trolling, just agreeing.
II hope it's not thru the blonde cause she was late and looks like she's not paying attention.
We can feel like we are actually in the room. At least some times xD
He even figured out an extremely effective teaching technique. He’s walking back and forth, focusing in on a different individual, physical gestures, personal involvement, eye contact, examples... I mean it sounds normal but he’s doing all those INTENTLY and effectively.
I take it you haven’t graduated college? This is somewhat typical of lectures. It’s basic body language nothing odd or nascent…
I love how the same people that shit on college as stupid would find how much value there is in taking courses in social sciences and how much you CAN (not necessarily do) learn from going to college
I had professors like him and they were always the best.
@@factbeaglesarebest Bit rude and unnecessary.
@@factbeaglesarebest by your snarky and narcissistic comment, I take it you haven’t listened to much of Jordan Peterson’s lectures?
@@factbeaglesarebest typical of the best ones, but certainly not typical.
@@factbeaglesarebest no need to be thinking Ur so superior.
There was a better way to say that .
I love when he picks his cup up to take a drink and then starts on a thought and has to put the cup back down without ever getting a drink. Just amazing.
I love that also. I’ve had this same thought
Usually, when a professor goes off on tangents, students' attention weakens and therefore the content is not properly absorbed. However, Peterson's tangents consistently illuminate the lecture. Amazingly effective.
Peterson's lectures are entirely tangents which makes them so easy to understand
That is very unique observation and it is so true .
Tangents are normally being used by him to shed more light on the subject in the lecture and you will not even know .
Highly educational and literally uplifting.
Glad to see these comments as I was thinking how tangential his lectures were almost thought disordered. This is why I think most people comment that they understand about 20-30%.
His style is one of free association which is interesting as his anecdotes are less interesting in isolation but in his style as a collective is more interesting.
Given his style, seeing his eye contact, love of facts with less emotions, he's almost certainly neurodivergent.
*picks cup up**puts it back down without taking a sip*
J Peterson is The One
1:26:00 in case anyone missed it
fuck this is big
@@MrWaqas765 again at 1:29:14
and again 1:38:33
and again at 1:40:15
So insightful, I wonder if those students realise how privileged they were to be in that classroom with a genius. JBP pours his heart and soul into his teaching.
This is what I'm watching instead of Disney's live action remake
"In the Hobbit, Bilbo was kind of underdeveloped overprotected Shire dweller and he's called on a great adventure to go and find a dragon. And, he has to become a thief in order to manage it. It's because as a "good citizen" he's just not enough to conquer a dragon. He has to also become a bad citizen in some sense. He has to incorporate the part of himself that monstrous, let's say. And, develop it. And, hone it. And that's to say, if you're harmless, you're not virtuous. You're just harmless. You're like a rabbit. Rabbit isn't virtuous. It's just can't do anything except get eaten. If you're a monster and you don't act monstrously, then you're virtuous. Why do you see this all the time? Harry Potter's like that too. Like he's flawed, he's hurt, he got evil in him, he can talk to snakes, he breaks rules all the time. But he has good reason to break the rule. If they didn't break the rule, they wouldn't attain the highest goal. So, it's very peculiar, but it's very very common mythological notions. The hero has to be a monster, but a controlled monster."
Man, I'm just typing this quote because I want to save it for myself
Thanks for posting that! I heard it and never thought to capture it.
This is too good
Great. I hope someone comments on this in like a year so I get the notification and can see it again
@@mikeyfreeman5776 a month is too early, but here you go
Happy to be your 90th like. I am glad to see Peterson is doing much better. On a separate topic, I would love to hear his take on the COVID situation and how people reacted to it. I’ll take a crack at it, but some things really bother me about how to understand it...
The conservative types want to open the country, while the liberal types tend to want to buckle down and close it all down, until it’s “gone”. I have trouble with this. Since conservatives have a strong disgust trigger, you would think they would want the “disgusting virus” to be wiped out completely. Nice and clean and closed down. But we don’t see this!! We see the conservatives want things to open up and keep the economy from collapsing. If I had to guess, it’s probably because of the tend for conservatives to be conscientious and want to work work work and keep the damn system going in a traditional (borders, no change) sense to keep capitalism going strong. The liberals have high neuroticism, so they are afraid of the virus and want everyone to lock down to avoid contamination. It’s very troubling that this becomes a right versus left division when it comes to the virus, but it certainly has. I wonder what Peterson would say about these current trends. No matter how you feel, politically, I want the world to get through this with people coming together and this hasn’t happened. Hopefully when he recovers, he will talk a little about the currently situation regarding these matters. I hope you don’t mind that I posted this irrelevant statement, but I value the opinions of those who appreciate Peterson and would also love any critiques or thoughts on my statements above. Since Covid started I’ve been trying to sort out the reactions I’ve seen. If you want I can repost it in the general section. Thanks friends.
7:07 "Yo mamma so old, her first date didn't take into consideration the dominance hierarchy."
Standing ovation. This man has done the inner work to go beyond understanding what he talks about and becomes the embodiment of the teachings. Thanks Jordan!
I Love listening to someone who can speak so beautifully - I miss university!
Nothing like ending such an amazing lecture with "Alright. That's that."
I wish he was in every school in America.
***** Even better!
I know it is impossible for him to be in every school in America, the comment was clearly praising him by illustrating his worth. It wasn't a literal statement.
its not impossible, on one level he already IS.
The point is the lesson needs to be found and invited by a search and a klick.

Sanjuro Shinjitsu and in England!! I felt no enthusiasm from teachers at my school...i was also a tough student.
left school at 16, end of academic education.
Peace.
These descriptions of toddler behaviour are so relatable and funny. Little kids are endlessly fascinating in just these ways!
He must have been a great Dad. How lucky his children are to have such an enlightened and sensible father.
2 hours 30 minutes. (Part 1)
Okay.
This man is an inexhaustible well of insight and brilliance. Why is he not absurdly famous already ? I put him in the same league as his masters ; Nietzsche and Jung.
He's pretty famous.
my god. Nietzsche and Jung didn‘t die to be compared to some generic common-knowledge based life-advise guy.
Yea like you are the one who gets to classify people next to nietzsche and jung
@@danaa.1242 I doubt they would care to the level you do if they heard someone compare Peterson to them. Just my 2 cents
Notice the "i". It's his opinion not a fact.
i read an article that described him as one of north america's "wealthiest academics".
he's earned it.
thank you dr. P
little saigon , but he gives all his classes away for FREE! He understands commerce, ->get the audience addicted, and you’ll do just fine!
This isn't actually quite right. He spend almost all his savings in Biblical Lectures in past years. I hope now he's in a better situation. Remember they kicked him off from Patreon too.
I don’t think that’s right; he puts all his material out there for free and rented space / paid for camera work for some of it. He doesn’t come from money.
He's taken a LOT of shit from hoomans. Primarily because he beats the drum of resonance with meat sacks that arent yet complete slaves to the narrative
@@marianojuarezdambola how did he spend all his money on that series? Granted it would have been time intensive, but I'm struggling to see how he could have lost his many millions to it...
For what it's worth, I love the guy and I'm glad he's made bank off it all.
I've been through 4 years of hell I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. And endless cycle of fighting to be a single father to a child across the country. Every visit I return home and break in to a million pieces and it takes weeks to put myself back together. Every work Dr. Peterson says has resonated with me and continues to change my life for the better. He is the most brilliant, in touch scholar the world has been blessed with in the 20th/21st century. I hope someday to thank him in person and shake his hand.
I pray these past 3 years have become substantially better for you and your child. That you have become the best version of yourself, and that these lectures have given you a guide towards the meaning within the chaos 3 years ago.
been watching JP's lecture for probably about three almost four years now and they just keep getting better and better. Amazing how the lectures are evolving and even peaking? Year by year. Look at the number of people he's reaching now. Awesome and amazing to me, inspiring. Good for you man.
✨🌟⭐️One of the greatest, respectable & most honourable intellects and heart of all times. This is what true education and life is about. Thank you Jordan Peterson✨🌟✨
1:51:55 Listening to this in my workshop, while trying my best to build quality things from wood, I broke down crying immediately. This guy might be onto something.
You could be instructing me on how to make scrambled eggs and I’d still listen to it 12 times. And that’s not a jab at you. You quite literally changed my life for the better man. Seriously man. I wish I could hug you.
37:33 Don't you just love when Jordan's speaking about children? Seriously, I'd love him to write a book about upbringing =D
marek snopek listen to what dr Gabor Maté critiques his ideas, either might not have the whole truth , but if you syntethize the different stands and create your own dynamic heuristics , you might be able to use their tecniques sustainably .. something therapeutic for one kid may be damaging to another
I would read it!
It's called "12 Rules for Life"
Children, in case you didn't realize it, grow up to be troubled adults if they are steered in the wrong direction through abuse or misinformation.
oh, wait, this is 4 years old...maybe your thinking has matured since then.🤣😂🙃
I'm in absolute love with your lectures and philosophy. I find it funny how people associate you with really extreme right wing ideology. You're a complete inspiration, and I look forward to listening to more of your work.
Many years ago I used to sneak in to Jordan Pearson's lectures, a UFT buddy of mine had him as a professor and I would just walk in with him and take it all in.. he's very calm in real life, a calm before a big storm.
What a blessing! I wonder if he knew and didn’t mind.
Polydipsia was the word he was looking for when talking about hypothalamic dysfunction.
Thx man 👍👍
Wow. Brilliant lecture, once again. I can't tell you how much your lectures have helped me. The only problem is that they've ignited a passion for psychology that I never know I had. But as a 27yr old lorry driver with a 5 year old daughter, I don't have many options to persue it. I'm trying though.
Josh Bull You can pursue it on your own until you are able to pursue it professionally. Get copies of classical pysch literature on audiobooks and listen in your lorry. Study source material. They don't even teach that stuff in Uni these days.
Alexander Camlin haha. Thanks, that is precisely what I'm doing! Lol. Just listening to Dostoyevsky Devils at the moment. Gonna try Nietzsche next, so interesting, it's opening up a whole new way of looking at people and the world.
I was more talking about pursuing it as a career. I would love to get out of the Lorries but psychology course is about £16,000 and will take me 6 years part time. Not really feasible, but I'm still looking into other options.
Thanks for your advice. 😊
Josh Bull I wish all the best for your future endeavors Josh!
Josh Bull looking into CLEP tests. In the states at least, they offer you the ability to pay $80 to take a pass/fail test for credits. Useful for banging out gen eds and self-studied lower level courses and humanities.
Alexander Camlin I was wondering whether that would be possible. It's nice to know you have that ability in the US. From what I've been able to find, I need to do an accredited "British Psychological Society" course which is the ridiculously expensive one. If I were to do a non accredited course then you can do something to transfer it, but that is more aimed at people who studied abroad.
Maybe clinical psychology isn't the path for me, maybe I'm too late for that train lol. But I've never been more motivated to do something about my situation than since I've been listening to JP's lectures.
I'd love to see Jordan analyze Spirited Away
Yes me too
Oohhh fuck yeah
Brother Bear 👈🦆👈
You should check out Jonathan Pageau's analysis of Spirited Away. He also does symbolic analysis of pop culture artefacts.
bruhh
How could something fun, interesting, enlightening and free fits into one video? Thanks to technology and Dr.Peterson, I'm very grateful.
yeah, and thanks to UA-cam ! I can't imagine life without them
This man is remarkable and how lucky are we to live in a time where we can watch & listen to him so freely and easily.
This shit's amazing. I love how it's possible to learn like this online ^~^
Cool eh? IMO it's a bigger deal than the industrial revolution and the enlightenment. Maybe bigger than books. Bigger than the printed word. OK, not as big as fire, but this is BIG.... LOL. Most people have not noticed and continue as normal with the depth of human knowledge on their iphones... USA almost elected Hillary. Lolz... Life goes on...
If I had this teacher when I was in school my life would look so different right now. Really not enough teachers that can keep me entertained and interested like this. Thank you for uploading!
I think it's attributable to a few things, at least partially: (1) Most people generally aren't trying to be the best they possibly can be, and therefore aren't particularly worthy of imitation, and thus your attentional systems aren't gripped by them. (2) The rigidity of the curriculum of primary/elementary and high schools, which constrains even a passionate and worthwhile teachers ability to keep students engaged by function of content choice falling largely not under the control of the teacher. Something like that anyway.
I am a business major and yes some of the concepts taught in my business courses are somewhat interesting, however, these lectures absolutely compel me to seek various forms of knowledge. I am proud to say I have watched all of the Biblical Series, now I cannot wait to learn much more from Dr. Peterson. Many of these concepts are reinforced across a plethora of his content, slowly engraving them in my mind so that they can become not only accessible to memory, but practical in my life. Thank you Jordan Peterson, I aspire to dedicate myself to positive causes in a manner such as you have!
I am doing everything in my power to be a little bit less stupid in life so I can thank this man for his lessons.
God damn, being a human is insane. Why can't I just be a tree?
You can. Join the alt left. Switch between genders daily, they have to accept it, then switch race, then switch species and follow that logic onto any organism you wish. Same ‘logic’, same ‘argument’ and almost certainly the only cases against your being a tree is a patriarchal hierarchy of white power conspiring against trees. Obviously.
Smoke so much trees one day imma be one
lol I can relate
@Yotrymp
Maybe in the next life
for now, clean your damn room and find some responsibility lul
You can, just take lsd, dmt or mushrooms
Great lecture! It really resonated with me. Watched the whole of Pinocchio afterwards, something I haven't done since 1968. Thank you so much for your generosity in publishing so much of your work! / Maria, Sweden
"He can talk to snakes, man"
Thank you very much, Dr Peterson! I am a lone person and I always have these thoughts inside me, gnawing my mind. Your lectures show me that my thoughts are not just mine, in the sense that I am not alone, and that there are people out there who share my similar points of view toward life. It is very strengthening and encouraging to hear your words and feel that this man is speaking what I have deep inside me, the thoughts and feelings that I can rarely share with anyone else, even with close people around me. It makes me feel much more mature and more determined to become the best that I can be no matter how difficult the road ahead is.
Once again thank you very much for sharing your wisdom and I hope deeply that someday, I would also be able to have such wisdom so that I in return can pass on my knowledge and help others, like my temporary self, who are in need of guidance.
I love how he modulate his voice. Master of storytelling.
Jordan,
Thank you so much for uploading these videos. I was going through a bout of slight depression (i.e. asking myself what's the point) and after listening to your perspective, especially with MoM, I was able to lift my head up and start working again on my graduate work again. Thanks for all of the hours of work you put into refining your thoughts; it's been really helpful for me.
Wow! Seriously this is free? Honestly I can't afford enrolling in a university and for this lecture to be filmed. I feel lucky just to find and watch this video! So much wisdom and so inspiring. Thank you Dr. Jordan B. Peterson for making this video and sharing your knowledge! Your like a father I never had.
For anybody wondering about the movie he mentioned about the guy running out of the sunway naked, it's called Boda Secreta (Secret Wedding).
MUST WATCH JORDAN... It's an addiction. ...need therapy....
you can get therapy from Dr. Peterson
I'd recommend the self authoring program. Imagine your life in 5 years if you kept putting things off to watch his lectures.
TylersTerrain man that was savage haha... I bought it, but I need to start. Did one entry, but it didn't save .
Brian Thomas no excuses
I started watching Jordan... got rid of addictions... got discharged from therapy... found meaning in life...
How does this guy talk so long without losing his train of thought. I seriously don't understand it.
Mastery of the material.
It's a course over a book he wrote across 30+ years. It's his life.
To me this level of mastery is what genius looks like. I genuinely think people will study Peterson's work in the future the way we study Jung, Freud, Nietszche etc now. I think in a way it's hard for us to comprehend how important this is while it is happening.
TheyLiveGlasses definitely. Nietzsche said something along the lines of not being able to tell who the greatest thinkers are of contemporary times; only posterity can judge that, but it's hard to imagine that petersons words won't be cherished for possibly hundreds of years
Maybe hard to comprehend how important it is when history is written. But at the moment I'm in awe and I know a lot of people are being affected by this guy.
Jordan you have literally saved lives with what you do and who you are, endless gratitude
Re-watching this series has been profoundly beneficial. The one thing Dr. Peterson said which stuck with me the most is the things you are looking for the most are often hidden within the paces you least want to look. Trying to embody that sentiment both practically and introspectively has been truly terrifying and anxiety inducing and has made me even question my own morality but it has been honestly very transformative and I can not thank Dr. Peterson enough for his words and helping me find the strength to look in the right places. It is true, in order to defeat your demons you must have the strength to look them in the eyes as it's the only way of working out how to defeat them.
If you're questioning your morality, chances are you're close to what you're looking for 😜 we're in it together and we're gonna make it.
We're all gonna make it
Don't be a sad cunt
Be a sick cunt 😎💪
It's amazing how many insights you can get just from listening him for a few minutes
Here I am re-watching the lecture before tomorrow's midterm and realize that even this class gets tens of thousands of views
Josh MacDonald if you're in his class, you should consider yourself lucky to get to hear this man talk and have the opportunity to talk to him.
Josh MacDonald now that it’s been a year, did this class have a lasting impact on you? If yes, how so?
Dude so jealous you got to actually be there what’s he smell like
Jared Logan Lmao
Wow I'm really jelous since I live in sweden and I would love to meet the man.
I think the movie he is referencing at 1:01:45 is “Secret Wedding” released in 1989.
Yes I was looking
Man, i can listen to Dr.Peterson for hours.
It dosn't just 'click,' it resonates.

Higher Education is dead
nah cuz you need the credential to get employed
@@grantwagner3923 You don't.
Modern western higher education doesn’t peddle in knowledge/wisdom. It’s the certificate/degree that costs money
@@grantwagner3923 Wrong, I was offered an 18 dollar an hour job based solely off of 1 customer interaction when working at Best Buy. You solely are the reason you get hired. The person I ended up interacting with happened to be the Chair of an organization, and yes they were impressed with me based on how I carried myself, my mannerisms, my knowledge, and critical thinking. I've only graduated highschool with 3 terms of local college under my belt, yet I can build computers, manage websites, create graphic art on photoshop/illustrator/Maya/Blender, I set up Wi-Fi on a public boat, managed funds, helped with hiring new employees, worked with our board of directors constantly, as well as managing our marketing meetings. Stop using credentials as a scape goat, this was all learned for free. You are your own problem, but you can also be your own greatest asset. It's all how you play your game of life. I did all of that before I turned 21, all of the people I work with are older than 45, and never treat me like a child. You need to grow up, make a life for yourself.
@@kfenstymiller Wow, that’s really inspiring. Thanks for sharing that!
God bless you for putting this series out for our consumption sir, it's rewarding to see such an egalitarian gesture rewarded with popularity.
Boy, that was illuminating. How to raise your child during 2-4 years of age was the best part. Amazing!
Dr Peterson. thank you for sharing tour lectures online. I think it is wonderful that you are sharing so much knowledge and years of your personal hard work and education with us all free of charge. I have always love psychology since my first semester of college, when it was required for nearly all degrees. I wound up loving it.
My professor had a wonderful way of teaching that you remind me of. For example...a lecture on cause and effect, he deliberately made a long boring lecture and during that lecture he started getting a lower, boring tone of voice, monotone, and the entire class was bored and nearly falling asleep. out of nowhere he made his way to the heater and kicked very hard making a loud bang and said "cause" pointing at the heater, "effect" pointing at us.
He also was able to bring in an actual slice of a human brain (middle top to. bottom about a half inch thick) that showed all the layers of the brain. It was fascinating. He passed it around the class. (it was in a sealed bag that had what I assume was formaldehyde).
You remind me of him and the reason I have been hooked on psychology ever since that one required class.
Thank you so much Dr Peterson.
I'm glad to be able to understand another tongue and have such a good time listening to your lectures.
I would love to sub them to spanish if you're willing to, ad honorem. Cheers from Argentina.
empty promises !
Chibi che muy copado si le agregarias subs a algunas de estas
Working on it guys, sorry for the delay.
Jordan Peterson's advice:
handling a baby:
"Don't drop it"
Stand up straight with your shoulders back to establish dominance... lol
@@jeffthacker9166 that’s much more like it
"That would not be good, man" 😂
One thing I really struggle with is the reaction of people in my life. When I finally do start speaking up for myself. I find it always gets turned around on me like I'm a bad person for even saying anything. The alternative is saying nothing and being just miserable inside all the time.
You're not around the right people or you're not explaining your ideas properly, but, don't feel bad for expressing how you truly feel, that is exactly what JBP is trying to get across
Also remember, not as many people as needed listen to JBP and they are blind to being kind to others
When you stand up for yourself the truer you’re words are the more they sting and the more they’ll try to twist what you’re saying and what you mean, because if what you where saying wasn’t true they could just say that’s not true and they wouldn’t care x
I have found that if I say only the slightest part of what I feel, the person I’m speaking to gets it. I don’t need to be really animated about it. I’m highly sensitive and I’m surrounded by a family of highly sensitive people. So it only takes a little explanation or emphasis. Which is fine by me, I’m not someone who seeks conflict.
I relate to this comment 100%
After watching this brilliant lecture, I have two emotions: envy and pride. I envy those fortunate students, and I am proud to call Dr. Peterson a fellow Canadian. Here is the man who doesn't just talk the talk; he is the real deal as a person as well. Thank you, Dr. Peterson!
You rock Jordan, you are a true crusader.💪
My friend had recently shared this video with me. I now completely understand why. Dr. Peterson is truly brilliant. This video has been a blessing!
I'm just noticing how unbelievably valuable, enlightening and profound the lectures of this man are. Thank you so much. Can't thank him enough, will do it in person one day.
Thank you Jordan Peterson, i'm actually studying in a Québec University and ..... god ....... my course dont get nearly that good, in fact ... they have no content compared to that !!! Continue your good work !!!
The movie you are looking for is Secret Wedding 1989

Don Corleone, I am honored and grateful that you have invited me to your home today on the day of your daughter's wedding... and I hope that their first child, be a masculine child.”
Don’t feel too bad, at least Luka Brasi did the same thing.
These free videos are a treasure. Even at my age, I'm finding gems of wisdom I can apply in my own life. Thank you Dr. Peterson.
It's like I'm taking an extra class this semester that is more interesting than my three other classes combined. Thank you Prof Peterson. Nice intro by the way
This is really helping me make sense of things.
This man is so brilliant! So often he strikes a chord in me that resonates.
Thank you Dr. Jordan Peterson for your insights, knowledge, wisdom, encouragement, and witty humour. At age 58, I only regret not having had your teachings in my twenties or even thirties. Better late than never...🙏🏻
Jordan - the name of the movie you reference at 1 hour into this video is called Secret Wedding!
THANK YOU IVE BEEN SCROLLING FOR AGES
I hope he saw this
I put the lectures on and drift off to sleep and try to let my brain take it in on a different level😆I also watch them when I am awake
I do that too: watch them in bed while I drift off to sleep, and pick up where I left off the next night.
Steve Collins I do it too although I haven't found any evidence in my own experience that the knowledge is being integrated haha!
i self medicate. have my own ideas while listening writing them down. good read the next morning. i always see myself siting next to the river when i do this. while being in controll would be swimming in it and being in chaos would be drowning.
i've been doing this too... setting a timer for shutoff on my computer so I can just drift to sleep. It's interesting to drift into the "underworld" while listening to these lectures. Definitely might give me something to dream about haha
me too :)
Since watching this video for the first time when my daughter was around 1, it has been the single most influential video I have ever watched. This video is one that anybody willing to listen will appreciate to the highest degree.
My dreams have been more pleasant and positive since I started listening to this lecture.
You are my intellectual soulmate. I could listen to you talk for hours, and often do.

My kids, when I did a "time out" I would tell them go to your room. Then I would tell them, "You can come out as soon as you get yourself under control." So it didn't take long before they wouldn't stay very long because they would get themselves calmed down because they didn't want to be stuck there. They discovered the "punishment" only as long as they let it.
You are much happier with people around you when they behave in accordance with reasonable social norms, then you actually feel genuinely connected to them and you want to work on their behalf so everything works out.
18:38 "When push comes to shove,man, the hypothalamus - that thing wins." lol.
max redlands what does “push comes to shove” mean? I didn’t get that.
and if you dont know that, it will rule your life and you will walk around pouting that the life just «happens» to ya.
when push comes to shove means something like; when actual demand for your dicipline, willpower, strength, responsibility requires you to execute the ability and virtue that you claim you stand for / believe / have , to face something that makes you vulnerable and will show what you are. yes ?
Ujjwal B It’s used in a similar context as “when the going gets tough.” It’s something that when the situation gets serious, the true qualities of someone come out.
@@ujjwalb7406 When a situation ramps up. Eg if you were standing in a queue and someone pushed you, you may forgive them and keep standing in line. But then as they became increasingly impatient they may push harder... which is shoving, disrespectful and leads to aggression and you may be inclined to push or shove back

His lectures have become like my morning coffee routine. His life lessons have tremendous help me to get through life. My life hasn't any better yet but I had this sense of feeling it will be far way better soon. He is a good father that many young children wishes they ever had. If you exposed little children with his lectures and lessons imagine what their life would be when they grow up. ❤️
"Life is full of suffering, so what do you do?
-Stand up for yourself, Pick your own goddaman sword and fight! You won't allow yourself to be defeated by life because if you do, you will be grumpy and resentful and it is not good." such a wonderful msg to ponder about everyday to get through life." 👏💯💪
TO DR. JBP, THANK YOU SO MUCH DOCTOR. You have no idea how many lives you saved just by watching your fantastic and educational videos. ❤️ You are like a fire that lits up the lonely candle that is hidden in the dark. 🕯️
In a side tangent of brilliant explanation Jordan proceeds to breeze through thousands of years of interpretation of Genesis, and F ing nails it in under a couple minutes. And in such a way you understand it. I Love this man's thinking and communication skills. Amazing. I've been watching his interpretation of the Bible as well. It's peels back a layer of mystery, and explains it very deeply and understandably. Highly recommend.
To keep "your" knowledge to yourself is just one more way man plays the role of the "fool". 😉 May no walls, blinds, or filters separate and censor humanity.
Thank you Jordan for sharing your knowledge and understandings in this world. You've helped more people then most of us could only hope to one day. Thank you.
