I kid you not. About five years ago my life essentially fell apart at age 25. Everything was in chaos and shambles. I realized how stupid I was and that I needed to completely restructure how I live and what I value - Jordan Peterson was the main voice I listened to for how to go about this Five years later and it’s all worked. Life is enormously better and will continue to improve. If your life is in shambles - JP life advice is what you need
Bro, mine has splintered into absolute shards of catastrophe a month before my 44th birthday. I have selfishly relied on my partner for 14 years and not built anything stable for myself. I found out she was messaging another dude for like 2 years. She says nothing physical has happened but she's away for work conferences a couple of times a year, staying in the same hotels this guy stays in, I think it's obvious that's not true. It may have been my fault but I simply felt absolutely insecure and couldn't continue a relationship with the woman I know for sure is the best person I could spend the rest of my life with. It might be cliche but stuff like this may actually save my life over the next year or so. Absolutely terrified. But it's not just us. Be strong man.
@@bigwetsalmon1 it works. Trust the process. Is life even worth living if you don’t get to experience the absolute destruction and redemption of it? I doubt it

Spend the next six years completely fixing your life (do what Jordan suggests) and you can spend decades a much happier man with a meaningful life It works. Just put your head down and work on yourself for a few years.
@@bigwetsalmon1 accountability is the first step to making changes. I've been in a similar situation before and I understand your pain and I hope you're doing well. It's hard to not have that feeling of regret but what's in the past can't be changed and you only have control over what you do. It's important to understand that cheating on someone is a cowardish thing to do and no matter how you feel about the situation, you need to at least know that in the back of your head. On the other hand though, take it as a learning experience because you want to at least take something good away from the relationship. Try to reflect on things you might have done to let something like that happen and what you can do in the future to prevent it. At the end of the day the blame is on both parties usually and can't be completely one-sided so it's important to reflect.

2 minutes in and I have tears streaming down my face. I’ve been self destructing for a few years now. I see everything that I’m doing wrong but feel completely aimless and powerless to stop myself from continuing the decline. I have moments of inspiration and motivation, but they quickly fade. I’m lost.
I’m sorry and I know how you feel. Don’t give up trying and a tiny bit of progress is better than none and worth celebrating until it becomes easier and easier to tackle bigger chunks
Recently lost everything financially. Previously used my savings as a crutch to stay in a comfort zone. Now I have to get out and make it work. One thing I’m learning through this process is that you have to do the basics (sleep at a regular time, eat well, set daily tasks). Very tempting to ignore the so called boring stuff when you’re panicking and your life is chaotic, stay disciplined
Human brain requires down time, so to say, where it’s not under load from any external factors, in order for it to process things you are thinking about.

It’s a form of meditation through solitude.
Just left an internship because of the people I worked with talked down to me and made my life a living hell while I was there; it felt like my life was all figured out up to that point and that I was near the pinnacle of my life after starting over many times, I felt devastated that I allowed myself to make the decision to walk away from my potential life dream as I enjoyed the work very much; but I could see that the lessons I learned and what life was teaching me at that moment was not about establishing a career that will make me successful, but learning at that moment that I need to learn how to love myself again. I could of regretfully stayed for the whole 5 months and be miserable but instead I decided to walk away knowing my worth; I don't know where life is deciding to take me through this journey but it was through that moment that was needed in order to see what truly matters in life for me currently.

.. as a German Biologist - we ALWAYS start from “scratch” this is about the Path to Mastery in the vastest sense like studying Music and an Instrument to learn to practise that diligently and respecting the Great Masters and their Works to engage lively with other Musicians and learn from and with them In Science it is far tougher - as we never can know what is “rigth” and what is “delusion” we are mostly locked up in Pre Judices and Delusions - and refuse to open the Mind to expand the Mental Band Width and learn from others who all go as far as Humans can to be ready to STOP any BAD attitude and behaviour to be Humble and learning with Gratitude and we never reach the Top of anything as our Minds are far too limited...
Yes I have heard that new discoveries and theories have difficulty finding acceptance in the scientific fields. People become very attached to their beliefs and can't change them easily. It becomes part of their egos and will be defended to the death. An unfortunate reality. A course on ego control should be part of the scientific curriculums. It may be very helpful in this regard as it is certainly a barrier to advancements. 🙋🏼♀️👍
"There's no better pathway to self-realization and the ennoblement of being than to posit the highest good that you can conceive of and to commit yourself to it" Hardest JP quote in my opinion.
I think I literally don’t care to make the right choices anymore. That’s the result of what I’ve experienced and my understanding of the world and what’s real and true.
Same. I have come to realize that everything is temporary in life so why would I do all the work just to obtain material goods I'm just going to eventually leave behind. They do say this life is just a school after all.
Nothing in life that is valuable comes for free. You will sacrifice/pay the price now, or you will sacrifice/pay the price later. Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending how you view it, the sacrifice is required.
I smoke daily since 14 years ago. Its addictive. Same as all dopamine boosters. Energy drinks.. porn.. cigarettes.. even food. Any dopamine thing is potential for addiction. And my doc wants me on adderall. A 20x dopamine boost. S m h
same, if I don't smoke I'm irritable and everything bothers me. Everyone says I should get on medication but I think I need to learn to love myself as I am without any outside influences.
@@okaminmbr9 take mushrooms bro youll find that happiness. ive smoked every day since i was 14 and im 20 now and finally taking a break for the first time and it feels amazing on the other side. Don't take the medication bro I promise there's natural ways to go about it and in my opinion mushrooms are the best for self love and empathy
@@okaminmbr9 just be cautious though, they can be strong. Make sure you're in a relaxing environment and have the mindset going into it that you're not afraid but you're going to let it happen and learn from the experience
I’m a liberal feminist and Peterson is supposedly my “enemy” but I admire him (save in social media where he’s an idiot like everyone). His rule “never make anything worse” transformed my life 8 years ago. For that I’m eternally grateful. Edit: what a mind blowing presentation of these essential ideas. I’m extra amazed - I lost my life partner suddenly 2 years ago. Today is our anniversary and it’s time for me to look at how much I’ve been hiding behind my grief. Thank you for making this video.
I also cringe at his online persona, but he genuinely gives incredible life advice that can be applied to everyone regardless of their political leanings. It comes from his years as a psychologist helping people. I’ve always found him to be fascinating when he talks a psychology and self-help.
This feels like my driving by myself. Snow, voices in my head and the future behind me. I love Subaru and Canada , what combo for enjoying this crazy marble. Have an excellent day whoever sees this, I love and I'm proud of you.
Obviously I don't wish for it to happen again but during my toughest time to date there was a part of me that began to grow and relish the challenge. I did essentially have to restart internally and externally in terms of my way of life and financial situation. I have found so much meaning and purpose through that struggle and things became very clear in what I had to do. Things to change about myself, people I surrounded myself with or even people who I had pushed away from me became even more clear everyday but it took a lot of work and not giving up. Today I live a much more purposeful life and things have turned around slowly and I attribute it to the everyday grind and struggle of the body and mind I put myself through, making myself accountable and not becoming a victim of myself. That doesn't mean you shouldn't forgive yourself from time to time bc you're only human. Love and believe in yourself, wake up everyday with words of encouragement to yourself while also staying humble. Also have empathy to people as they might be in a bad place as well and sometimes their actions don't match their true means. Having empathy allows yourself to be a better human and I believe will give life so much more meaning. I found life again in resetting, I hope you do too!
The thing is you have to want to change and leave your past self behind. You don’t want to do that. Or else you discover the bigger and deeper problems around your life
It sounds like you are very unhappy with your life. You are where many people are rn. I'm my opinion, once you have found a way to have a roof and food, you have to find a purpose for living. That is the hard part. You have to find out what it is that you really value in life. An example is, if you love horses, get a job around horses. If you hate the results of the oil and gas industry, don't work in that field. I found purpose working for the City maintaining parks. I was willing to get up at 5:30 am and work 10 hr days because I felt good about my contribution to the people of my city. Work in an area that you have an interest in. Then when you learn as you work it will more fulfilling. Many sports stars stay in the sports field after their athletic careers because that is their main interest. It is hard to figure out what kind of work can give you a purpose but it is worth figuring out. Sometimes you can find it by deciding what areas you are NOT interested in. Then you are left with only a few to chose from so it's easier to chose one to commit to. With a purpose, you then have a direction to move in to find fulfillment and meaning in your life. They lifestyle that is reflecting your lack of purpose will change without much effort because you will not depend on it to give you the tiny bits of joy you need to face another day. I think this is the key to a good life but no one really tells you this. They just tell you to follow your interests and that doesn't pay the bills. My interests are watching TV and reading. I love animals but I don't want to care for them full time so that's out. I didn't know I liked horticulture until I started working for the city. Now I know there is a limit to what I am willing to do to climb the ladder at my job. I'm on to the next job in banking. I want to know more about how banking works. I will have a reason to go to work besides my paycheque. I'm thinking about a student loan to study archeology. I love that stuff and would love to spend my days digging in the dirt to find artifacts. I think I will be required to do that right away in school so I would find a lot of fulfilment doing that. And if I ever managed to find an ancient artifact that had been buried for thousands of years, I would be thrilled. Anyway, I think that is the way to a build a meaningful and fulfilling life. Add in a wife and family and you will also find the joy that it can bring. You can have that too. Best wishes for a good life dear. 🙋🏼♀️💖🌈
@@SkitzoBenjamin yeah it’s possible to quit drinking. I drank a bottle a bottle of vodka a day at the end of my alcoholism. Go walk into any hospital or detox center and tell them you’re an alcoholic and need to stop drinking. They give you meds to help. You stay there for around 5 days, then go to a 12 step focused rehab or AA meetings.
14:00 This speaks directly to me. I'm an extremely logical thinker(self proclaimed of course), but I have trouble looking at myself objectively, mostly because I don't like what I see. I'm a grown baby, and part of me wants to blame it on my lack of suffering. 20:05 More questions that I ask myself every single day. I feel so lazy that I cannot even do the "pointless" things that I want to do like playing video games half the time. I feel like most of the time I'd rather mindless scroll YT or even worse watch twitch. I would love to spontaneously dive into something that takes no "effort" on my part to pursue, as in I don't have to go out of my way to WILL myself out of bed just to do it, I actively want to do it, and the world would benefit from me doing it. I know. It's naive.
This is absolutely amazing I love this man he’s completely given me the confidence to overcome ANYTHING ❤🙏🏽 Jordan is a blessing to humanity thank God 🙏🏽🫶🏼
Incredibly most things, I've dreamt of, I channeled myself towards it, put in the effort and bingo! Things happened and suddenly I was living my desires. I've had set backs also, things thrown at me from external forces, poor choices I've made, back to square one again, oh joy! Rather than beat myself up for poor choices whatever, I pick myself up, dust myself off, think ok am I going to continue on this path? I've learnt one thing. Seems evolution comes not only from good choices but from failure and embracing it! Failure is a blessing if we learn from it.
The best newest buzzword I've heard to describe Jordan Peterson was "toxic positivity". 😂 If that means identifying my bulshit and being honest with myself I guess I'm toxically positive.😅
I admit my mind can get muddy and I find it hard to live my purpose. Since I really concentrated daily on making one important thing better and was consistent with that I have had vast improvement.
At 36 I think there’s not a whole lot of life left to save. I’m not married, no kids and I’ll have to care for my mother for the rest of her life. After my parents die, I won’t have anyone left to hurt if I decide to leave.
Don't stop searching. I helped take care of my dad for 10 yrs. Both of my grandmothers for several years at times both. And after that i took care of my grandfather for 3 years after my grandmother, his wife of 76 years went to heaven. My grandfather, my hero, went to be with her on Christmas morning 2023. My family is selling the only home I've ever known. My family is gone. I'm 40, no wife, no kids, I'm an addict, and I barely know how to pay my bills. I'll never quit, as lonely as it is, as unhappy as I've been, i refuse to. I'll will not look at the man who rocked me every night for years bc he didn't trust the SIDS machine and say i gave up, or i couldn't. He's with me every second. Someone is with you. If you don't know who's with you, I am. We may be lost in this moment. But you, i, we are not alone. Never stop, never give up.
Have you considered the possibility that what you want may not be a specific person, but the feeling of loving and being loved by someone special to you?
These traits raise your vibration so that you have the bandwidth to be greatly receptive --> above others, to the information that is streamlined to us, yes.
If you show the "wrong" highest aim to the world, some will try to stop you. Many choose the broad road to hell, not only for themselves, but for you as well. You got to know when to hold them, know when to fold them, know when to walk away, know when to run.
Gratitude. Just be appreciative of every goofy thing. Sunsets, trees. Good coffee. Breathing. The interconnectedness of EVERYTHING. Gratitude helps a lot. It helps overcome the victimhood mentality which is a lot of ego.
Don't forget that Jesus was crucified. The world doesn't like Jesus. He is too good. They didn't understand him and accused him of things He didn't do or say. Be careful. If you are burned out you have been giving too much. You have to find your limits and communicate them to those around you so they don't demand or expect more from you than you can deliver. You have to develope boundaries that protect you from being over worked or taken advantage of. You may have to start fresh at a new job to be able to establish new boundaries because the last place got used to you doing more than you should be to sustain your health. If it's relationship responsibilities that have burned you out, you must insist on getting help. Either your spouse or paid support is available to take the load lighter. I broke up with a guy because he refused to do household chores. We could have just hired somebody and that would have solved the issue. I didn't know that option was available at the time. 🤷♀️ Live and learn.
@@leanne123 Everyone's dead except my mother. She rented me to child porn producing pedophiles when I was a kid, because she was a cocaine addict. She's an actual psychopath who groomed me into only living to serve psychopaths. My ex-wife is one too, she poisoned our child twice and nearly killed him, got away with it because her dad is a retired cop now turned retired politician. I'm completely alone in this world.

as we never can know
what is “rigth”
and what is “delusion”
we are mostly locked up in Pre Judices
and Delusions
- and refuse to open the Mind
to expand the Mental Band Width
and learn from others
who all go as far as Humans can
to be ready to STOP
any BAD attitude and behaviour
to be Humble
and learning with Gratitude
and we never reach the Top of anything
as our Minds are far too limited...
Moving. Very moving. You left me with something fabulous to think of today. I'm sure you have a brilliant mind. ❤
Yes I have heard that new discoveries and theories have difficulty finding acceptance in the scientific fields. People become very attached to their beliefs and can't change them easily. It becomes part of their egos and will be defended to the death. An unfortunate reality. A course on ego control should be part of the scientific curriculums. It may be very helpful in this regard as it is certainly a barrier to advancements. 🙋🏼♀️👍
"There's no better pathway to self-realization and the ennoblement of being than to posit the highest good that you can conceive of and to commit yourself to it" Hardest JP quote in my opinion.
Privileged wyt boi contemplations

Did u not fucking listen.
I am 60....need to completely start over somewhere new.....need a plan and a way

Good luck young man. Go get it, the sky is your limit.
Me Too.
Starting over is an addiction.
I seem to be more comfortable and alive rebuilding structures I’ve torn down…
Crazy neuro pathways…..🤪
indeed…
Peterson is one of the best speakers of the current era.
Very well rounded. Thank you for this
Bravo!! I love how you set the mood with this audio by taking a drive on a snowy winter day. Thank-you for sharing this!
I think I literally don’t care to make the right choices anymore. That’s the result of what I’ve experienced and my understanding of the world and what’s real and true.
Same. I have come to realize that everything is temporary in life so why would I do all the work just to obtain material goods I'm just going to eventually leave behind. They do say this life is just a school after all.
Nothing in life that is valuable comes for free. You will sacrifice/pay the price now, or you will sacrifice/pay the price later. Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending how you view it, the sacrifice is required.
Smoking weed too much daily -_-
I smoke daily since 14 years ago. Its addictive. Same as all dopamine boosters.
Energy drinks.. porn.. cigarettes.. even food.
Any dopamine thing is potential for addiction.
And my doc wants me on adderall. A 20x dopamine boost. S m h
Keep the promise you made to yourself and don’t smoke this today
same, if I don't smoke I'm irritable and everything bothers me. Everyone says I should get on medication but I think I need to learn to love myself as I am without any outside influences.
@@okaminmbr9 take mushrooms bro youll find that happiness. ive smoked every day since i was 14 and im 20 now and finally taking a break for the first time and it feels amazing on the other side. Don't take the medication bro I promise there's natural ways to go about it and in my opinion mushrooms are the best for self love and empathy
@@okaminmbr9 just be cautious though, they can be strong. Make sure you're in a relaxing environment and have the mindset going into it that you're not afraid but you're going to let it happen and learn from the experience
I’m a liberal feminist and Peterson is supposedly my “enemy” but I admire him (save in social media where he’s an idiot like everyone).
His rule “never make anything worse” transformed my life 8 years ago. For that I’m eternally grateful.
Edit: what a mind blowing presentation of these essential ideas. I’m extra amazed - I lost my life partner suddenly 2 years ago. Today is our anniversary and it’s time for me to look at how much I’ve been hiding behind my grief.
Thank you for making this video.
I also cringe at his online persona, but he genuinely gives incredible life advice that can be applied to everyone regardless of their political leanings. It comes from his years as a psychologist helping people. I’ve always found him to be fascinating when he talks a psychology and self-help.
Why do you cringe at him? This is an honest question, I really want to know.
I'm actually thrilled this has been reuploaded so many time. It always seems to pop up in my recommended feed just when I need it.
Love the video of you driving in the snow!
Me too, oddly soothing lol.
We Love You Jordan. Eternal Thanks. Blessings To You Dear Sir 💛
This feels like my driving by myself. Snow, voices in my head and the future behind me. I love Subaru and Canada , what combo for enjoying this crazy marble. Have an excellent day whoever sees this, I love and I'm proud of you.
Obviously I don't wish for it to happen again but during my toughest time to date there was a part of me that began to grow and relish the challenge. I did essentially have to restart internally and externally in terms of my way of life and financial situation. I have found so much meaning and purpose through that struggle and things became very clear in what I had to do. Things to change about myself, people I surrounded myself with or even people who I had pushed away from me became even more clear everyday but it took a lot of work and not giving up. Today I live a much more purposeful life and things have turned around slowly and I attribute it to the everyday grind and struggle of the body and mind I put myself through, making myself accountable and not becoming a victim of myself. That doesn't mean you shouldn't forgive yourself from time to time bc you're only human. Love and believe in yourself, wake up everyday with words of encouragement to yourself while also staying humble. Also have empathy to people as they might be in a bad place as well and sometimes their actions don't match their true means. Having empathy allows yourself to be a better human and I believe will give life so much more meaning.
I found life again in resetting, I hope you do too!
JP is so close to finding Jesus and coming to the real (rather than metaphorical) Father. Let’s pray for him.
Drinking daily, not working out, and not cleaning enough.
The thing is you have to want to change and leave your past self behind. You don’t want to do that. Or else you discover the bigger and deeper problems around your life
Stop drinking.
If you can’t, you have a problem. Seek 12 step meetings. Working out and cleaning will come after you stop drinking.
It sounds like you are very unhappy with your life. You are where many people are rn. I'm my opinion, once you have found a way to have a roof and food, you have to find a purpose for living. That is the hard part. You have to find out what it is that you really value in life. An example is, if you love horses, get a job around horses. If you hate the results of the oil and gas industry, don't work in that field. I found purpose working for the City maintaining parks. I was willing to get up at 5:30 am and work 10 hr days because I felt good about my contribution to the people of my city. Work in an area that you have an interest in. Then when you learn as you work it will more fulfilling. Many sports stars stay in the sports field after their athletic careers because that is their main interest. It is hard to figure out what kind of work can give you a purpose but it is worth figuring out. Sometimes you can find it by deciding what areas you are NOT interested in. Then you are left with only a few to chose from so it's easier to chose one to commit to. With a purpose, you then have a direction to move in to find fulfillment and meaning in your life. They lifestyle that is reflecting your lack of purpose will change without much effort because you will not depend on it to give you the tiny bits of joy you need to face another day. I think this is the key to a good life but no one really tells you this. They just tell you to follow your interests and that doesn't pay the bills. My interests are watching TV and reading. I love animals but I don't want to care for them full time so that's out. I didn't know I liked horticulture until I started working for the city. Now I know there is a limit to what I am willing to do to climb the ladder at my job. I'm on to the next job in banking. I want to know more about how banking works. I will have a reason to go to work besides my paycheque. I'm thinking about a student loan to study archeology. I love that stuff and would love to spend my days digging in the dirt to find artifacts. I think I will be required to do that right away in school so I would find a lot of fulfilment doing that. And if I ever managed to find an ancient artifact that had been buried for thousands of years, I would be thrilled. Anyway, I think that is the way to a build a meaningful and fulfilling life. Add in a wife and family and you will also find the joy that it can bring. You can have that too. Best wishes for a good life dear. 🙋🏼♀️💖🌈
Me too. Is it possible to quit drinking? Probably, but I’m scared of withdraw.
@@SkitzoBenjamin yeah it’s possible to quit drinking. I drank a bottle a bottle of vodka a day at the end of my alcoholism. Go walk into any hospital or detox center and tell them you’re an alcoholic and need to stop drinking. They give you meds to help. You stay there for around 5 days, then go to a 12 step focused rehab or AA meetings.
Spirituality as a philosophical and sociological foundation..... Damn, JP is a VERY special and unique gift and refreshing to this emaciated soul
Ty fr the ride n the lesson...see ya❤

This speaks directly to me. I'm an extremely logical thinker(self proclaimed of course), but I have trouble looking at myself objectively, mostly because I don't like what I see. I'm a grown baby, and part of me wants to blame it on my lack of suffering.
20:05
More questions that I ask myself every single day. I feel so lazy that I cannot even do the "pointless" things that I want to do like playing video games half the time. I feel like most of the time I'd rather mindless scroll YT or even worse watch twitch. I would love to spontaneously dive into something that takes no "effort" on my part to pursue, as in I don't have to go out of my way to WILL myself out of bed just to do it, I actively want to do it, and the world would benefit from me doing it. I know. It's naive.
This is absolutely amazing I love this man he’s completely given me the confidence to overcome ANYTHING ❤🙏🏽 Jordan is a blessing to humanity thank God 🙏🏽🫶🏼
The purpose of thinking is to let your thoughts die instead of you!
And here we are once again, starting from scratch. God speed!
Incredibly most things, I've dreamt of, I channeled myself towards it, put in the effort and bingo! Things happened and suddenly I was living my desires. I've had set backs also, things thrown at me from external forces, poor choices I've made, back to square one again, oh joy! Rather than beat myself up for poor choices whatever, I pick myself up, dust myself off, think ok am I going to continue on this path? I've learnt one thing. Seems evolution comes not only from good choices but from failure and embracing it! Failure is a blessing if we learn from it.
The best newest buzzword I've heard to describe Jordan Peterson was "toxic positivity". 😂
If that means identifying my bulshit and being honest with myself I guess I'm toxically positive.😅
I admit my mind can get muddy and I find it hard to live my purpose. Since I really concentrated daily on making one important thing better and was consistent with that I have had vast improvement.
You are an incredible educator! God bless you!
You can start living at any age ive seen 64 year olds go from drunk dying to alive healthy buisness owners just try
We all handle boredom in different ways and suffer boredom at different levels...
so much for the modern era Socrates.. i always start from itch, since it precedes scratch. buena dia
The example of self propelled constructive critical thinking he has championed has really helped people. Stay well fellow humans
I love this ❤It’s also funny to imagine that he’s just talking your ear off the whole time you’re driving 😂
At 36 I think there’s not a whole lot of life left to save. I’m not married, no kids and I’ll have to care for my mother for the rest of her life. After my parents die, I won’t have anyone left to hurt if I decide to leave.
I’m feeling this exact same feeling.
Don't stop searching. I helped take care of my dad for 10 yrs. Both of my grandmothers for several years at times both. And after that i took care of my grandfather for 3 years after my grandmother, his wife of 76 years went to heaven. My grandfather, my hero, went to be with her on Christmas morning 2023. My family is selling the only home I've ever known. My family is gone. I'm 40, no wife, no kids, I'm an addict, and I barely know how to pay my bills. I'll never quit, as lonely as it is, as unhappy as I've been, i refuse to. I'll will not look at the man who rocked me every night for years bc he didn't trust the SIDS machine and say i gave up, or i couldn't. He's with me every second. Someone is with you. If you don't know who's with you, I am. We may be lost in this moment. But you, i, we are not alone. Never stop, never give up.
Me too
I enjoy this to your driving. Great video
That Super Ego truck. ❤
"If you actually want something, you can have it..." That may be true about most things, but not the one thing I want the most, shes not coming back.
Have you considered the possibility that what you want may not be a specific person, but the feeling of loving and being loved by someone special to you?
@@M4ttz8exactly this. He will see the light.

I feel the highest conceivable good lies somewhere between ambition, gratitude, and honesty. Perhaps these are the ingredients for creativity?
These traits raise your vibration so that you have the bandwidth to be greatly receptive --> above others, to the information that is streamlined to us, yes.
@@PsychologicalApparition Beautifully written my friend. My mission here is to love and be loved. I pray we are all able to access our emotions 🙏❤️
this shit repeats, good, let it sink in
If you show the "wrong" highest aim to the world, some will try to stop you. Many choose the broad road to hell, not only for themselves, but for you as well. You got to know when to hold them, know when to fold them, know when to walk away, know when to run.
Power
Damn what a beautiful video.
Indianapolis? Sure looks like it Thanks for sharing
Don’t drive in snow if you don’t have to just stay home and enjoy the snow 😊
This is good. Thank you for making this.
Where attention goes action flows!!!
Gratitude. Just be appreciative of every goofy thing. Sunsets, trees. Good coffee. Breathing. The interconnectedness of EVERYTHING. Gratitude helps a lot. It helps overcome the victimhood mentality which is a lot of ego.
Man this has really helped me thanks
If only Dr P could do this for himself ….
I just don’t seem to have much left in the tank. I’m frazzled to the outter limits.
@Telepathy723 I’m literally Jesus.
Don't forget that Jesus was crucified. The world doesn't like Jesus. He is too good. They didn't understand him and accused him of things He didn't do or say. Be careful.
If you are burned out you have been giving too much. You have to find your limits and communicate them to those around you so they don't demand or expect more from you than you can deliver. You have to develope boundaries that protect you from being over worked or taken advantage of. You may have to start fresh at a new job to be able to establish new boundaries because the last place got used to you doing more than you should be to sustain your health. If it's relationship responsibilities that have burned you out, you must insist on getting help. Either your spouse or paid support is available to take the load lighter. I broke up with a guy because he refused to do household chores. We could have just hired somebody and that would have solved the issue. I didn't know that option was available at the time. 🤷♀️ Live and learn.
@@leanne123 Everyone's dead except my mother. She rented me to child porn producing pedophiles when I was a kid, because she was a cocaine addict. She's an actual psychopath who groomed me into only living to serve psychopaths. My ex-wife is one too, she poisoned our child twice and nearly killed him, got away with it because her dad is a retired cop now turned retired politician. I'm completely alone in this world. I've heard the advice, none of it seems to have much effect at this point. It's like asking a dog to be a cat, "just try this suggestion", nope, still not a cat...
God has a endless power in the tank
@@richard63204 Half of the Worlds Without Number do fall.
This is innovative… the motivational speaker sitting at the passenger seat when you’re driving a car 😅 keep it up and more of this!
There's a term for that; "Backseat driver".
Anyone noticed that truck saying « super ego »?
Oh crap now they're letting us put cuss words in here that's amazing wow freedom of expression about something that's not just overly positive
Informative and useful 👏👏👏
Great channel, I am so glad I came across this you and you definitely keep it up!
Thank you I really needed to hear this I get confused about what I want and my self esteem gets in the way 😊 want to set some goals which I know what they are and I need to ask for help I know what I want but afraid to pursue it but know if I don’t I’ll be sad and have wasted my time on this new Endeavor people say your old now you can’t do this kind of stuff at your age I, 61 I’m not a spring chicken but if I try I can do this loose my stupid ego
Thank you Canada for producing this man and his wife and his family.

Audio clipped from Motivation Madness 1hr and 3hr compilations of JP, btw.
Really enjoying the talk but can't continue, sorry I can't do background music
This guy his blessed most of the stuff he talks about its true
Excellent compilation good job
People think this is a compilation, but its actually just Peterson talking to himself whilst driving

Wasn't the happiest i ever felt,
It was THE Freest. And it dont last before your covered back stuck with all missed manages time stoves darkening over arch back shadowing fastly past days fulfilled tensions.
I might not always agree with Peterson but those who put him side by side with Tate are not doing it out of intellectual honesty
Tate is a savage, compared to Peterson.
Or Ben Shapiro 😅
nothing changes if nothing changes
I needed this 🙌
Video looks like spring in Saskatchewan.
An amazing speech as always, enlightening.
Lost car, lost job, lost money, family cause of it all, nowhere to go, nobody hiring without a car... This is just it I guess
28:08 years ago, I made a painting of exactly this.
I wanna reach my dreams but pursue them as reality
Am I the only one who enjoys being told for professor Peterson "your pathetic being" 💖
My internet father!! Thank god for JBP
😌👍
Thank you
Are you driving in Virginia beach out by Pungo? I swear I recognise that first intersection you went through
