Transcript (partial):
I started to pay very careful attention to what I was saying. I don’t know if that happened voluntarily or involuntarily, but I could feel a sort of split developing in my psyche. I’ve actually had students tell me that the same thing has happened to them after they’ve listened to some of the material that I’ve been describing to all of you. But I split into two, let’s say.
One part was the old me that was talking a lot, that liked to argue, and that liked ideas. There was another part that was watching that part, just with its eyes opened, and neutrally judging. The part that was neutrally judging was watching the part that was talking, and going, that wasn’t your idea; you don’t really believe that; you don’t really know what you’re talking about; that isn’t true. I thought, hm! That’s really interesting! That was happening to like 95 percent of what I was saying, and then I didn’t really know what to do. I thought, ok, this is strange. Maybe I fragmented, and that’s just not a good thing, at all. It’s not like I was hearing voices, or anything like that.
So then I had this weird conundrum: which of these two things are me? Is it the part that’s listening and saying, no, that’s rubbish; that’s a lie; you’re doing that to impress people; you’re just trying to win the argument. Was that me? Or was I the part that was going about its normal, verbal business? I didn’t know, but I decided that I would go with the critic. And then what I tried to do-what I learned to do, I think-was to stop saying things that made me weak. I mean, I’m still trying to do that. I’m always feeling, when I talk, whether or not the words that I am saying are making me align or making me come apart. I really do think that the alignment is the right way to conceptualize it, because if you say things as true as you can say them, then they come out of the depths inside of you. We don’t know where thoughts come from. We don’t know how far down into your substructure the thoughts emerge. We don’t know what process of physiological alignment is necessary for you to speak from the core of your being. We don’t understand any of that-we don’t even conceptualize that. But I believe that you can feel that.
It’s a shock. You might think, well, do you really want all of that to burn off? Well, there’s nothing left but a little husk-5 percent of you. Well, if that 5 percent is solid, then maybe that’s exactly what you want to have happen.
It’s not self-destructive, because it’s like the diagnosis of an illness. It’s like, if that does happen to be the case for you, to some degree-maybe it’s only 10 percent of you, or maybe it’s 90 percent-well, then coming to terms with that is excellent, because, maybe, you can stop doing it. What would be the downside to that? You’d have to give up your resentment, hatred, and all of that, obviously. That’s annoying, because those emotions are easy to engage in, and they’re engaging, and they have a feeling of self-righteousness with them. But you’re not doing this to put yourself down: you’re doing this to separate the wheat from the chaff and to leave everything that you don’t have to be, behind.

About 13 years ago I wondered what I would sound like if I said nothing negative about anyone, any thing, any event... and I soon had nothing to say! How awful must I have been before that! More recent years have seen me try and say less negative stuff about my own self and it does feel better.
WHOW
I also tried the mantra:say something nice or stay silent. And same as you i stod silent a lot. Now i have to face the conversation in my head, stop saying negative things about and to me. Really really weird.
MindBox , hmm psychobabble, Consider the prophet Isaiah. And the realization of God incarnate, referenced by Matthew, if you need help, ask.

That's not exactly what Jordan is talking about. He's pointing out how one should tell apart the voice that comes from our "monkey mind" (or "racing thoughts") from to the voice that comes out of the depths of our real soul. It's not a difference between negative and positive -- but between what's fake and what's authentic.
I did the opposite to become more useful. Positivity in overdrive made me ignorant of the shadow in myself and others. I became meek, lacking ambition and making excuses for others. These things must be balanced and used constructively. Both have potential to destroy.
Peterson certainly has a knack for taking away people's pacifiers. No wonder so many people hate him.
Especially the left
@@tmnt10000 The left doesnt hate him. Stop spreading that political propaganda.
@@Mavish11
Right and I not white.
@@Mavish11
I stop when the left stops with their intolerance and political propaganda.
@@tmnt10000 Eye an for an eye makes the whole world blind. I dont know what propaganda you're talking about but you should stay away from Facebook. And try not to stupe to the same level as leftist extremist.

Sooo nothing changed?
rye, if you think Jordan Peterson videos are useless, why are you here?
Aye. Still watching useless stuff. He has good points. Better to use this as motivation, stop using youtube and actually do something.
@rye How can you dismiss them if you cannot comprehend them? One can explain it to you, but *NO ONE* can understand it for you.
time to get to gym bro
And people want to silence this genius
No. I've been listening ears open and eyes open and mind open. Hopefully this trend will spread. Science help us!
Because he encourages self-responsibility and independence. Two things the Left hates
@@maggiemcgee8487 -- You precisely nailed it.
"Thought and Truth are revolutionary acts". 1984.
Did he make a genius statement here? What was it?
“Trouble is more interesting than boring” I saw many “friends” I used to associate with create trouble/problems for other people to make their own lives interesting. Sad really.
I see this in a lot of my friends right now. They do stupid things because they have nothing else to do. It’s even worse now bc of quarantine. Prof Peterson is definitely an eye opener.
Well, I guess I'm weird...I'll take boring over trouble any day, having had my fill of trouble---mine and other people's. Boring is when you're free to find or make something constructive or otherwise fun to do, if you so choose.
Exactly my point.
@Joost Broek Haha and I'm pretty much older than dirt! 😄
@@helenhighwater5313 ,PS..I'm older than dirt too.😃
That's the beauty of personal development, even though you level up, the levels to surmount are endless.
that's how capitalism makes you think of the self, an ever improving, efficient product.
Alan Watts may disagree and say that all the levels you perceive to surmount to are just the same level. Ego-cyclical
@@rymichael7203 Alan Watts is awesome to listen to :)
havadatequila capitalism can result in monopolies which stifle opportunity and improvement (climate science deniers et al) Free enterprise and trade liberalism is what leads to high achievement. Capitalism only means that trade and industry are in private hands pursuing profit. Without free markets, operating under accountable laws Capitalism can lead to oligarchy and fascism.
👏👏👏
I experience this too. Every time I talk, I can feel myself watching and listening to what I'm saying. Most of the time I'm telling me to stop talking.
And it is a hard feeling to accept too
I need to shut up when i tell me to shut up!!
Me too
So is jbp telling u to listen to the critic instead of babbling things that u know to be false?
@@Dev-ri7zf yes.If you feel weak because of things you say and you feel weak during saying them you should stop saying them.Filter out nonsense and say things that you really mean.
Bruce Lee said "To be honest with one's self is a difficult thing to do." If you get rid of what is not you, you can then become who you were always meant to be. It is always nice to hear these concepts put into different words, hopefully in a way that can really sink in. You just started yourself on a whole new journey Mr. Peterson, it is one worth taking. Best wishes.
"Leave everything you don't have to be behind."
Battle for the mind because everything begins in your thoughts.
That's the hardest part!
A bouncer once told me we need a bouncer for our minds unwanted and negative thoughts can be told your not coming in helped me a lot.
Invest in your thoughts for everything it's created twice, first as an idea.
We have to be careful of what we are saying, because we create our reality.
Danko Nešović ... we certainly do.
Then you are using a very loose and incorrect definition of reality.
Reality is based on truth and facts. It is there and doesn’t change based on someone’s thoughts or feelings regarding it. It exists whether you believe it does or not. You cannot create any reality that doesn’t already exist unless it is a false one.
There is an absolute truth. That is the reality we all live in wether you believe it or not. We don’t get to play God and create “reality” through our thinking. That is not how it works.
@@Josh-qo7yd I agree, but we get to choose how we interpret our reality. That makes difference. Thus we mold reality by our brain. Reality is flexible...sea of possibilies. Brain is the key.
We were made in the image of God, so, we co-create our reality with Him.
Pirate LumberJACK ... so you say, however my reality manifests very much based on my thoughts, feelings & intent and that of those around me. You speak of reality as if you understand it yet your five senses only perceive reality as you understand it. The truth of reality is not defined by ones perception and that ... is a fact
Danko Nešović I disagree. God is truth. There is so much around us that we do not understand. I have a masters in psych and worked in the clinical psych field for 2 years before I became discouraged with the same psychobabble that you are spouting now. Thinking that we create our own reality is bogus. You are deceiving yourself. The Bible is truth. the Bible is not open to interpretation. There is absolute truth in it. And I don’t understand it all but I pray. The truth from God is reality; all other “realities” are deception.
As you grow up from infancy the people that you encounter influence you. They influence you to behave in a manner that makes them feel comfortable at the time. You get rewarded with companionship if you are successful and punished with distance if you’re unsuccessful. All these behaviors that you learned are very deeply rooted and it takes a lot of courage to cast them aside and remake yourself.
Perhaps we never get rid of them ..it s about 14 years I try to push them away ..I even dont talk to some of these ex close friends for the same amount of years yet my thoughts and dreams and so my life is still related and my daily energy highly affected by them..it s about how deep and powerful is my mind and memory for many people works completely different they just forget you after a day or less and your words after seconds..
"It's a hell of a shock to realize you're mostly dead wood." And yet, we probably recognize this fact in others very easily. You have a friend, and you know exactly how she'll react to ANYTHING you tell her? You know someone who always relates every story back to themselves, or their military service, or some celebrity they once knew? We think of those people as simple and repetitive, but we think each pronouncement from our own lips is utterly fascinating. We can't all be right.
How daaaaaaaa you I have nevaaaaa been wrong!!!!
I think that a lot of times when people reply with a story about themselves, they're just trying to show that they relate to what you're saying, that they understand.
@@edennis8578 Yeah, that's understandable, but when you are talking about your ectopic pregnancy and he comes back with the same story about how he ate 40 hot wings to win a bet, you know he just doesn't have that much to say. I'm afraid we are all that way sometimes, though.
My dad was one of those silent types. Not to the point that he couldn't socialise, but I remember when people were talking he just sat back and listened until he just straight out said over the table to no specific person. "How the fuck do you have an opinion about everything?!"
It was kinda fun, because everyone at the table looked like they started to think hard af before making statements after that not to mention the discussion actually started to go somewhere.
That's what think about Tim Pool these days. He's tedious to listen to because he tries to make any story he hears about him in some way.
We all fall short of the glory of God. We are commanded to "lean not on our own understanding" but rather, lean on the perfect truth of God & actively stay close to him from the moment we wake every day. I have to remind myself of this daily. Hopefully it's a good reminder to someone else, too.
Amen!
(& NOT "awoman". That's PC ignorance.)
Excellent advice. This man is a marvel in that he can make the mysterious utterly obvious, and bring the profound within easy reach.

The pride of life; mankind's absolute defeat. History shows entire civilizations wipe out predicated on that very conundrum.
Excellent advice? What about it was excellent?
@@psychcowboy1 your reply.
I don’t remember where I heard it recently but the gist was that everything you do or say by choice is a vote for the person you will become. Do you want to be negative or even mean? Do you want to be a procrastinator or even lazy? Or do we want to “burn off the chaff”? It’s always up to us. But every choice we make moves us another step down a path.
Nicely phrased!
Good angle
Its from the book atomic habits
One thing I appreciate about Peterson is that he doesn’t give it all away. He asserts his ideas, but he leaves the journey of self-discovery up to his audience.
Well the thing is I think, that you have to make the journey yourself.
"observing the thinker" is a powerful skill to develop.

A year and a half ago I started to watch Jordan Peterson to practice my English. Thanks to him I did that but I'd never stop watching him because Im learning how to apply the language by every possible means.
Thanks Jordan and God bless you
this is why i prefer to be alone, or at the very least, with like minded people. i often find my “friends” starting gossip or just talking badly behind other people’s backs for NO reason other than their own entertainment. it sickens me and i don’t know how to get them to stop so when i’m with them and they’re talking like that, i will literally just shrug at everything they say
Whenever I feel depressed, I come here to watch him. His words work like an antidepressant.
I swear I get a lump in my throat every time I listen to this man! Don't know why. It's not a bad thing.
Karen Swidzinski he's the father we all needed tbh
I would go see a doctor for that lump
It's probably a visceral response to hearing the truth. Is so rarely spoken. And I would imagine that you respond to hearing the truth because it's what you think inside of yourself and now you're able to experience it being spoken to you.
@@laurabarber6697 Indeed
Thanks to Jordan my life has significantly improved!
I watch/listen to these videos almost everyday, to refine the wisdom he imparts. What a good man.
I think the biggest challenge. Is changing who you are on the inside. When your outside world is the same.
Alignment is key. You know when you are aligned when you feel good. Fear and anger are evidence of mis-alignment. Meditation will align you. When you are aligned with your core higher self, you will channel strength and wisdom.
i wish i had a therapy session with him
@Psychonaut read his books
He’d mess you all the way up lol that’s your worst nightmare ... trust moi
He’d be an interesting neighbor...
@@yankeedogg2212 I just want to be his friend...

Nice work. Listen to Converge/Tool/Deafheaven while at the gym and you'll be Superman within a year 😛
I've done this. Example: I stopped saying "I'm Sorry" and instead of saying this I'll say "I apologize for....." or professionally "my apologies for...." I am not "sorry" or sad or pitiful or substandard, but I do think apologizing is a necessary communicative tool.
Uhhh really?

"There´s only 3 kind of mental patients, the ones that have been diagnosed, the ones current under medication and the ones to be diagnose *left* in the future." Jordan Peterson.
“Trouble is more interesting than boring”
Damn right. And that gets me into lots more trouble!
It's amazing how I am saying things, that I thought I came up with myself, and then I see a video of JP saying those exact same things 1 to 5 years before I did! 😁😁
I will often pray for purity of intention and a discerning heart...
Doubt your profound comment will get many likes. For it requires humility.
@@chrisanderson9157 I do not see the post as a profound comment. It is something that I have heard or read before somewhere else and something that I aspire to personally and work toward with many episodes of failure in between, as well as something that I wanted to type in the comments section of this video. My intention was never, and is never, to fish for "likes". Be aware of assumptions and projections Mr. Anderson. Cheers.
Is yous praying to the Morning Star? 😆😈😆😈😆😈😆😈
This phenomena happened to me this year. Started immediately after I learned about Carl Jung’s collective unconscious (about 2 months ago) As soon as I read about the collective i had this indescribable feeling of “HOLY SHIT THERES MORE TO LIFE” and it almost resembled an acute period of enlightenment/revelation/alignment/some gnostic type vibe. Ever since then I have been able to slowly rewire my very essence. First I observed my words/actions, then I observed my thoughts, and now im observing the observer.
Hard to describe, phenomena. Huge thanks to JP for keeping me conscious in this mentally liber stage of my life.
Modern pshycology is based off of cj work, im starting to learn the real importance of it, these days alot of people need it. I think it's due to the social isolation ppl are having these day.
I went through almost the same exact thing. When I read the part about knowing your unconscious and conscious self, I paused a little. After that, an overwhelming feeling like you mentioned flew through me. Since then, it has been very different to do things
Did that phenomenon caused you anxiety?
I love it, Carl Jung but never Jesus Christ. Guess we aren’t all destined for the narrow path.
I believe that anxiety is the core reason for our negativity. Although we need cortisol during times that require us to react swiftly in an emergency the every-day stresses of life can be debilitating and it is caused by worrying which is a by-product of anxiety and then we project that anxiety on to others who are also anxious and so it spreads.
Mental health is the coherence or allignment of the abstract or spiritual with the physical. Brilliant.
WHEN YOUR EGO IS GONE,, YOU START LIVING.
PEACE FROM DENMARK
Leave everything you don't have to be behind. 👏🏼👏🏼
Best message I ever heard.. everyone needs to hear this, we can always push to be better persons... #wakeupcall!
Hold every thought captive. Father God bless you all an have a great day!
JP is fascinating. Seriously. Most of us can learn a lot...
I think separating yourself from id (thought) and ego (speaking) is very difficult when you're younger, say 25 and under. It becomes easier after 45yrs old. However, Jordan's concept is always good to at least be aware of. Something to strive for more and more each day such as listening more intently to others while putting your own ideas aside.
I love this guy!
One can get trapped in being their own judge (and everyone else’s) and this opens you up to being accused by yourself, others and the enemy of your soul.
Thank you so much for posting these videos from JP
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
Excellent, Merry Christmas Dr Peterson , God Bless You buddy☦
He said that one really important thing there... "They come out of the depths inside you..." This came from his heart. I recommend you to listen more of him.
I’ve noticed my brother talking in such lack, defeat, and doubt when I first realized how my words that I spoke were so triumphant, strong, and confident.
I’m becoming more and more aligned :) it’s amazing how the energy and strength I feel within me is just so much more powerful from living like this. I also find myself able to write quickly and effortlessly without even thinking.
Thank you for yet another powerful observation Jordan. The devil makes work for idle hands - and minds. It is a revelation to recognise these things creeping into ones own thinking.
Is exactly right… Negativity is a weakness. I know for myself when I say something negative or gossipy or such midsentence I regret it. I’m saying to myself now that’s not necessary or you know better than that... ugh. It’s a TERRIBLE HABIT
This split in my psyche has always been there. The second part of me always watching and judging what I was really doing. Split between knowing who I am and equally not having a clue who I am. It's been hard. Jordan Peterson has helped immensely.
This man replaced my youtube habits from chaos to order, same happened happened in life dramatically. Habit of Watching the content that builds me, has been institutionalized deep inside me.
Thanks is not enough. I will meet this father figure & wanna cry hugging. 👍
The man is a saint and a genius!!
A gift from GOD!
There is a reason why this man’s books are sitting on my coffee table. Awesome!

Never identify with negativity you can feel depressed but you are not depression you can feel sick but you are not sickness
Very wise words.
Amazing work, by giving the scripts also. I saves lot of my time.. I usually go through slide by slide and take the damn notes .. I totally understand the `Content` is important, but how JP presents it is so beautiful , I do not want to miss any JP's sentence formation .
Good advice. Reminds me of "as a man thinketh", where the mind is what creates your external world.
Lately, peoples' perceptions of me have had me feeling like I have to act certain ways/play certain roles that aren't genuinely me. Thank you for such a powerful reminder to be 100% authentic in all my dealings. This above all: to thine own self be true!
Wow this concept of alignment is brilliant
Thank you for being a guiding light in this confused world, Peterson!
Agreed. Peterson appeals to the confused section of the population. Those who have themselves at least moderately figured out consider JP to be a loon.
I sincerely wish I had someone talk to me like this man when I was a teenager. I watch my life from afar. That me is a sad mistake only comedic for all the unfortunate events that happen to him. We are the same man...or used to be anyways.
Such an honest, vulnerable speech, admitting weaknesses and faults.
Dr peterson is completely different person than what he was few months ago
Stay healthy sir
This video isn't recent. It is from mid 2017. We won't be hearing from Mr. Peterson for some time I predict. Benzos do so much damage it is an indescribable torture to endure. I am only now able to begin participating in life somewhat and I have been recovering for 4 years.
His wife has cancer. He is devastated.
This video could not come at a better time
Hats off to this channel for putting these wonderful videos with apt captions.
Thanks for the enhancement in the video quality and other details. That makes watching far more pleasant. Great work.
Excellent book written by a monk: Our Thoughts Determine Our Lives
Made my day just by listening to it
Leave everything you don't have to be, behind. That's gold
wishing you a better 2021, dr peterson
Thanks a lot man.
Really powerful stuff man ✊
Sir, you are describing so truthful! When we talk about things, people often don't understand that they/we clinch to thoughts which are constructed and not true and inherent.
A thoughtful man. 'Just live and enjoy life' was my Father's maxim. Too much analysis is also as much a conundrum as too little. We breathe life into our words by just saying them...ergo...we should always be considered and positive in our thoughts, actions and speech.
I just come here for the wise words from jordan and the comment section thank you to all
When he says he's not a particularly nice person, he has to work hard at It, some people are worse than that. Everyone is like that to some degree. That's very real and makes me think about who I am and what do I reveal to this world. And to myself.
That's beautiful my friend. Thank you for sharing that.
200 years from now ppl will be taking and staying this man, and his work. We are privileged we live while he is in the planet
You know you've really made a difference in this world when people make videos of you talking with music underneath it (like Alan Watts). Love Jordan's work and the clarity of thinking he offers us all.
Wow the very thoughts I had over my sobriety 🍺here here to 5 years🍺
It is your choice what you want to focus your attention on, it is your choice what kind of thoughts do you allow yourself to have ! Your self-talk is your choice :)
That's just another thought that happened without anyone's approval.
Good one though.
Self-talk can get interesting... For me at least.
Not to sound condescending but most often thoughts are involuntary. An attempt to control them can make us miserable, don't you think?
So is our choice of words.
@@dankonesovic8437 I think it is our choice we we focus our attention on, how we talk to ourselves, what we say to ourselves:) yes words are Incredibly powerful
Thank you for posting this!
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
It must be so difficult for Professor Peterson to process his wife's illness. He loves her so much and has said that he feels safe and completely accepted by her. He thinks so deeply and feels so much that knowing his wife is suffering and that he may lose her companionship and love has got to be horribly painful.
We all die. Who knows, you could be gone tomorrow, or already gone the day after you posted that so you're not reading this. I believe in an existence beyond death so, death is just another milestone of life.
J. True, but we miss the presence of the loved one even when we know that their spirit exists with God. I am a hospice nurse. I see the changes as people approach the end of life. The veil becomes very thin.
@@Marimilitarybrat honestly, I don't understand why you would comment about that on this video. He didn't say anything about this aspect of his life, so....not sure how you felt the authority to broadcast his business regarding a very personal matter like this. I'm a nurse as well - since 1994. Maybe you're new in nursing? Words of wisdom for you: people don't appreciate you inserting yourself into their nightmare unless you are directly related in that nightmare, in other words, you're their friend, family, nurse and they've directly brought you into their circle....and as you know the nurse side of it, you have to earn their trust. And even still, they don't appreciate you gossiping about what they are going through.
Marimilitarybrat I’m afraid he may never do another city tour. Too bad I was too busy when he was in my town last year.
J Did you even apply anything Dr Peterson stated? Pretend that your words are the speech that he speaks of. They essentially are. Why would your comment about being dead have the same now consciousness as the process of dying and the knowledge of dying, and the love and duty shared when dying?
Reminds me of goggins talking about tuning out the noise and looking in the mirror, being real with who you are good or bad just owning it and starting from scratch instead of living lies. Get your base on.
imagine leaving a dislike on a free lecture by Jordan Peterson about life advice
I love that piano music in the background just swaying you
Your thoughts become your actions n your actions make your reality. Act accordingly friends.
I came to YT today to find a video like this, only to find it in my recommended.
Must be trying to tell me something
Wow, this is the most honest and powerful thing I have ever heard.
It has happened to me too recently, I have noticed this immense split too.
Excellent tie - makes a nice contrast with the suit.
Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. James 3:10.
This is a masterful explanation of the expression of ego against ones true self. Brilliant.
Love your videos! Thank you!
"Energy flows where attention goes"
Mr. Peterson experienced a lift in his consciousness as he obserbed his thoughts as a neutral judge. This is some 3000 years old vedantic method to notice what is really true and what is just your mind's false conviction.
Analytical meditation or in other words the "neti neti" (not this not that) process is very useful to get a clear picture of yourself.
Mindfulness practices and meditation could help to improve this ability.
"In the mirror of your mind all kinds of pictures appear and disappear. Knowing that they are entirely your own creations, watch them silently come and go. Be alert, but not perturbed. This attitude of silent observation is the very foundation of yoga. You see the picture, but you are not the picture."
