I hate being annoying and I am horrified by the idea of public shaming, but given that Dr. Peterson puts great effort into recommending the Self Authoring Program over his Twitter, I think I should get over my lack of courage and take this opportunity to advertise for the Self Authoring Program as this video is very relevant to it: bit.ly/selfAuth (affiliate link for Bite-sized Philosophy)
You put effort into this channel which is a fave of mine and many others. Also, I'm currently doing the Authoring Suite because it's extremely affordable, supports Dr. Peterson and may improve my life. So promote away. I just hope the thing works!
Harshal Desai The Program has many small segments and you can save at any point. So you can work on doing small segments each time, instead of doing the whole thing in one sitting. You also don't have to be precise regarding grammar, syntax and spelling and you can do the writing in any language. Finishing the program isn't easy at all, it's a very daunting task, but starting it and doing the segments one by one is fairly easy. Pick a time and date to invest the first 10 minutes into it, you can do it!
Speaking for myself I know I am a bad employee, a worse boss and the worst shareholder. Nobody likes to fail at anything but I believe I am a better person for it.

@@eskay3442 - truth. Unless you have a rewarding target or goal in sight, taking a step just for the sake of initiating motion or activity and feigning determination and resolve, will result in despair, total apathy and spiraling into destructive habits with renewed indifference and abandon.
I've met so many people my age, or slightly younger that sit around on disability and very, VERY depressed with their lives. They are too afraid to go outside because they don't have much experience in social interaction. They give up at the slightest inconvenience because they've been "told they can do anything." Then they try to contact me to talk about their feelings. I don't have time to respond to these messages and often miss them. When i finally notice the messages they send me they've already spiraled down into a mental state that is panic attack after anxiety attack after panic attack because they've constructed in their head that they've done something wrong.
After hearing about Peterson and using some of his advice in my personal life, it's amazing to see how much I've grown in such a short time. Source of quality knowledge right there.
+Eduardo Neujahr After all the sappy pseudo-psychology we've been exposed to it's almost a surprise to hear someone who's using actual scientific observation and giving real, practical advice other than "you can be whatever you want to be...", which is dangerous bullshit...
You can be whatever you want to be... biggest leftist lie ever told to give people false expectations and create dependance on the Government when you fail. I think that was the hardest lesson I learned in my life. I have 3 university degrees an MBA and I am just spinning my wheels at low wage jobs. Life is not fair at all. So I get down on myself often. But, I will say when I was making a lot of money I was buying things I should not have. So maybe it is better for me to live on a budgeted income with less time to find trouble? Money made my life worse though and I never liked any job after the first 6 months. Any thoughts??
So what have you learned? You are tyranising yourself instead of negotiating. Find your sweet spot. If you cant ask yourself if you really want to do this. If not find out what you want. Find out what you wabt to do and do it. Its not that hard
Logican I know! I can listen, attentively as heck, to _hours_ of talks and documentaries, I can spend hours wrangling with boring ass speeches/materials for a friend because some govt writers and translators suck balls and I don't want her to embarass herself, but I can't sit down and write a stupid physics lab report. I _hate_ those reports. I tried various strategies, from working 5 minutes to establishing some routine to whatever, but all that it accomplished is me HATING it even more...

I really responded to the style of Peterson's talk. He doesn't mollycoddle his listeners with waffle and gets straight to the point. After being in a rut for awhile, I listened to this and have done exactly what he says. A couple of months ago I started scheduling with myself and confronted the thinking that gives soft options when I should be working.

Cannaman Cannaman there is food high in serotonin (or whether it boosts it already in the body idk, all i know is that bananas are one example suppose to help with it) but my point was if a person doesnt eat enough foods containing things known to prevent depression and then eats things known to cause moodswings and anxiety then they are also causing it. Figure out why you are not gettibg laid, if your over the age of consent i guarntee its nothing to do witth your looks but either no confidence or some communication issues, or power struggles. Ugly people, obese people, nice people, nasty, tall , short etc get laid

Guys. Take a paper and write down your mayor goals under words like "Friends", "Relationship", "Job", "Family" and "Free time", write everything that comes to your mind about how you would like to be in those areas in the future. AFTER doing that write down the micro-goals that will push you toward those goals. After doing that, all those little things will make you feel rewarded and you will be happy to do them instead of feeling them like a burden. It helped me a lot doing this, I hope it helps you too.
even if your first week you hit it with 3% if you aimed for 4% the next week and so on you would of been hitting it with 100% accuracy since last month haha
I find that his videos are presented in a way that produces anxiety. I always find something in his videos that I need in that moment to improve. However, it is always at the risk of another anxiety attack.
I watched this with a smile on my face the hole time because I've got a feeling this is going to lead to an incredible transformation. God bless you for sharing this clip and Jordan for being who he is!
Men start to clean their rooms after listening to mr peterson. This is a good thing. Maybe they can also start to cook, to do laundy, to take care of their children, etc. There are a lot of activities that women do to not feel bored and miserable.
Holy... this is so amazing. It’s relevant to my life and goals and weaknesses and it’s helped me figure out how to put together a plan for future success.
What is actually incredible, is that you can have "rewards" that will make you go forward. Once, playing the guitar for half an hour everyday was something I forced myself to do and it took discipline. Then, I kind of enjoyed it and finally I'm hooked on it. Now, my reward for having completed my other tasks is playing the guitar, which was a task before ... It feels incredibly great to do that. Watching videos from online philosophers and other incredible people is also my reward and it feels so damn great to work, watch high quality content just to go back to work with more determination...
You may not have listened... sometimes you have to experience failure in life to succeed as it gives you a frame of reference... What's that saying... Youth is wasted on the young. Very true because we have little life experience at such a young age.
He forgot the most challenging aspect of this process: Finding goals you actually think you can reach. Finding goals is super easy, but finding a realistic goal that is still motivating enough is very hard. And how to keep believing in higher goals, especially during times of failure? THAT'S the real task. I have tons of goals, but it's during times I stop believing in reaching these goals that I find myself starting to procrastinate.
I am eternally grateful to Dr. Peterson for his words of wisdom. They are changing my life profoundly. I have an amazing life but he's helped me dig myself out of procrastinating and wasting time.
'Whoever wishes to illustrate the highest virtue throughout the empire first ordered well their own states. Wishing to order well their states, they first regulated their families. Wishing to regulate their families, they first cultivated their own selves. Wishing to cultivate their own selves, they first rectified their hearts. Wishing to rectify their hearts, they first sought to be sincere in their thoughts. Wishing to be sincere in their thoughts, they first extended to the utmost their knowledge. Such extension of knowledge lay in the investigation of things. Things being investigated, knowledge became complete. Their knowledge being complete, their thoughts were sincere. Their thoughts being sincere, their hearts were then rectified. Their hearts being rectified, their own selves were cultivated. Their own selves being cultivated, their families were regulated. Their families being regulated, their states were rightly governed. Their states being rightly governed, the whole empire was made tranquil and happy.' - Confucious Great Learning, I, 4-5, in Legge, Life, 266.
Have "things I can do" list instead of a "to do" list. You can look at it and think "I don't have to do any of these, but I do want the results of all of these actions, so let me pick one now"
So with no answer you're still at 'existential suffering', having no answer to 'why am I here and what difference will there be left behind that I was ever born'. Cmon bro, you have been given so much. Make it count for something good. Simple kindnesses toward some people, some age group. Pick a population and help them and stop being so self-focused for a while.
This was the first useful information on how to get rid of procrastination. It had methodology, it had an example, and it was put into words easy enough to understand for everyone. this is indeed great advice.
What Peterson is saying is that you could make a deal with yourself to go and change your winter tires and put them away in your storage space in exchange for having a nice cup of coffee and watching the rest of the Jordan Peterson video as a reward when you're done. He's suggesting that even a crappy employee like me could be useful when coerced with the right negotiation tactics...
Chris Jones, I think "coerced" is the wrong word. I myself would prefer "encouraged." To be clear, I am talking about your mindset not your choice of words.
+Paul Wheaton I read your comment a number of times and still cannot for the life of me figure out what you are trying to say. What do you think I got wrong? Did Peterson not suggest that bribing yourself could be an effective way of defeating procrastination? Can't you see the slight tinge of humor around my use of the word "coerced"? You wouldn't be a nitpicker would you...?
+Paul Wheaton Actually, come to think of it, I was being mildly comical when I used the word "coerced". I reasoned that since the word was being used on one's self that it could be used loosely. Like if I said, "God! I'm an idiot!" after leaving my car window open before a rainstorm, that would be OK, but it wouldn't be OK to say that about somebody else. I don't think you have to worry about my "mindset"...:)
“You could have know but you chose not to “ man that intensity in voice, he serious ..... 8:36 "you are gonna hit that position where things start to loop back positively and spiral you upwards." now i understand why i get negative result because i did not improve it and whenever i failed i started from zero so i used to start loop from zero instead of 1 % increment position thanks JP
So many of Petersons videos seems to speak to me, god i need to get my life in order, i'm 30 and going fucking nowhere, and the depression is only building up due to my procrastinating constantly, but the depressions also causes the procrastination, how the fuck am I meant to move forward. :'(
You have to just push yourself through. Resilience is key. I've felt that way before and every now and again I feel it again. I see it as motivators. I don't like this feeling and that motivates me. I've dealt with some shit and I just keep on chugging. I've learned a lot about myself through these trials.
You feeling that way is a blessing not a curse. That tells me you have huge ambition and you are like a bullet waiting to be fired though a rifle. You just need to find what will strike your primer. Start small and work up. Build your self esteem and if that means low wage jobs so be it. Do them and take pride. Don't ever let the bitter employees drag you down, I think that was my problem. Surround yourself with very successful people you will gravitate towards higher achievement. Do not associate with people lower than you they will drag you down with them.... Misery loves Company.....
bite down and one step at a time buddy. Think of it as driving at night. You may not see far ahead, but with small cone of light, it's enough to make the journey. You just have to keep going.

even if your first week you hit it with 3% if you aimed for 4% the next week and so on you would of been hitting it with 100% accuracy since last month haha
This helped me significantly. My grades went up a ton because I was able to commit to doing homework and studying much more frequently.
I find that his videos are presented in a way that produces anxiety. I always find something in his videos that I need in that moment to improve. However, it is always at the risk of another anxiety attack.
I watched this with a smile on my face the hole time because I've got a feeling this is going to lead to an incredible transformation. God bless you for sharing this clip and Jordan for being who he is!
How are you getting on?
This 11 minutes video is far more practical and informative than any other 1,2 hrs videos and even most of the so called selp- help books.
I really need to clean my room right now... roughly speaking
Men start to clean their rooms after listening to mr peterson. This is a good thing. Maybe they can also start to cook, to do laundy, to take care of their children, etc. There are a lot of activities that women do to not feel bored and miserable.
nogablg what a great generalisation about men and women
well, back to working out and being confident in how much better I am

"well, back to working out and being confident in how much better I am" [than you, is the implication]
Step 1: Watch this video about procrastination AFTER you finish your chores.
Step 2: Enjoy.
Just did that.
Reading this comment 2 mins in got me doing my house chores. Now all I have to do is wait for the laundry to dry to out away 😏
So, tomorrow then?
In Spain, you do everything tomorrow.
I just finished a 10-hr work day. And spent time with the kiddos.
I think I earned a bit of downtime to watch a JP lecture 😺
I cleanded my room today
I uncleanded my room today. zero suffering.
Any misery?
John Allan Yay, you deserve a cookie!
Used to clean it before watching this guy
good for you
"You're useless and horrible, so..."
Jordan Peterson, calling us as we are 😂
how many people added this video to "Watch Later"?
Watched it in full and then added it to Watch Later
I've got like 600 videos on watch later :c
I had the tab open since yesterday evening, does that count?
Isaxus And this ain't one of them?
They're procrastinating on a procrastinating video.
have you guys heard of the Procrastination Elimination Method by John Isaac?
Annie Blogger no
every time I've been able to "see" myself doing "it" I've overcome procrastination, outside of that I'll put things off. This guy is a genius.
This looks like a great video, i’ll watch it later
Holy... this is so amazing. It’s relevant to my life and goals and weaknesses and it’s helped me figure out how to put together a plan for future success.
What is actually incredible, is that you can have "rewards" that will make you go forward. Once, playing the guitar for half an hour everyday was something I forced myself to do and it took discipline. Then, I kind of enjoyed it and finally I'm hooked on it. Now, my reward for having completed my other tasks is playing the guitar, which was a task before ... It feels incredibly great to do that. Watching videos from online philosophers and other incredible people is also my reward and it feels so damn great to work, watch high quality content just to go back to work with more determination...
This was a good video... Peterson has such an awareness about him, just watching him talk and explore his own ideas is so enlightening.
Getting called “useless and horrible” by Dr Peterson is oddly comforting.
I think Dr. Peterson should have a Podcast.

Bite-sized Philosophy Thanks! 👍
Watching this instead of working on either of my 4 overdue essays or preparing for two tests next week
I came across this whilst procrastinating!
Clean your room and sort yourself oat bucko!

Whilst. British English student?

The amount of knowledge this guy is able to condense in a 10min talk is amazing

What is it selling for?
Tiaan de swardt - part of your soul i guess
How much is it?
Responsibility :)
David Santana. Too much. I'll take a skip on this one. Gotta feed my snake in my dirty room.
Life sucks
*saves to watch later list*
Watched this 20 years too late
lol
Are you on your death bed? If the answer is no then It's not late, it's never too late
It’s never too late
You may not have listened... sometimes you have to experience failure in life to succeed as it gives you a frame of reference... What's that saying... Youth is wasted on the young. Very true because we have little life experience at such a young age.
😂
I've been listing to Jordan for over a year now thanks for being you.
I'm procrastinating by watching Jordan Peterson videos, hoping that it'll help my procrastination. The irony is not lost on me.
This is probably the best speech I've ever heared about this. Even better than motivation speakers. Thanks for uploading.
I wish I heard this years ago, especially the negotiating with yourself part. Oh well, best I can do is use it now after seeing my past failures.
I wish Dr. Peterson's teaching style was the norm, rather than the exception.
He forgot the most challenging aspect of this process: Finding goals you actually think you can reach. Finding goals is super easy, but finding a realistic goal that is still motivating enough is very hard. And how to keep believing in higher goals, especially during times of failure? THAT'S the real task. I have tons of goals, but it's during times I stop believing in reaching these goals that I find myself starting to procrastinate.
I totally agree with that statement
True
I am eternally grateful to Dr. Peterson for his words of wisdom. They are changing my life profoundly. I have an amazing life but he's helped me dig myself out of procrastinating and wasting time.
'Whoever wishes to illustrate the highest virtue throughout the empire first ordered well their own states. Wishing to order well their states, they first regulated their families. Wishing to regulate their families, they first cultivated their own selves. Wishing to cultivate their own selves, they first rectified their hearts. Wishing to rectify their hearts, they first sought to be sincere in their thoughts. Wishing to be sincere in their thoughts, they first extended to the utmost their knowledge. Such extension of knowledge lay in the investigation of things.
Things being investigated, knowledge became complete. Their knowledge being complete, their thoughts were sincere. Their thoughts being sincere, their hearts were then rectified. Their hearts being rectified, their own selves were cultivated. Their own selves being cultivated, their families were regulated. Their families being regulated, their states were rightly governed. Their states being rightly governed, the whole empire was made tranquil and happy.' - Confucious
Great Learning, I, 4-5, in Legge, Life, 266.
** Added to watch later **
Have "things I can do" list instead of a "to do" list. You can look at it and think "I don't have to do any of these, but I do want the results of all of these actions, so let me pick one now"
I must listen to this every morning
Ten steps i will take to stop procrastinating.
1.
LOL
So with no answer you're still at 'existential suffering', having no answer to 'why am I here and what difference will there be left behind that I was ever born'. Cmon bro, you have been given so much. Make it count for something good. Simple kindnesses toward some people, some age group. Pick a population and help them and stop being so self-focused for a while.
Take your time
@@downbntout well said sir. Are you on any social media?
This was the first useful information on how to get rid of procrastination. It had methodology, it had an example, and it was put into words easy enough to understand for everyone. this is indeed great advice.
Yes, but how do you apply that methodology If you've never done a schedule for e.g.? How do you apply this and make it it effective?
I watch this video ever time I procrastinate
So thankful I was able to start listening to Mr. Peterson at 14
What Peterson is saying is that you could make a deal with yourself to go and change your winter tires and put them away in your storage space in exchange for having a nice cup of coffee and watching the rest of the Jordan Peterson video as a reward when you're done. He's suggesting that even a crappy employee like me could be useful when coerced with the right negotiation tactics...
Chris Jones, I think "coerced" is the wrong word. I myself would prefer "encouraged."
To be clear, I am talking about your mindset not your choice of words.
+Paul Wheaton
I read your comment a number of times and still cannot for the life of me figure out what you are trying to say. What do you think I got wrong? Did Peterson not suggest that bribing yourself could be an effective way of defeating procrastination? Can't you see the slight tinge of humor around my use of the word "coerced"? You wouldn't be a nitpicker would you...?
+Paul Wheaton
Actually, come to think of it, I was being mildly comical when I used the word "coerced". I reasoned that since the word was being used on one's self that it could be used loosely. Like if I said, "God! I'm an idiot!" after leaving my car window open before a rainstorm, that would be OK, but it wouldn't be OK to say that about somebody else.
I don't think you have to worry about my "mindset"...:)
I admire his self confidence . To be a public speaker with that voice...
Me: Sees video on how to stop procrastinating.
Also me: *save to watch later*
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️😂
Lol I felt shame as I tried to do the same, so I saved and pressed play 😁
“You could have know but you chose not to “ man that intensity in voice, he serious .....
8:36 "you are gonna hit that position where things start to loop back positively and spiral you upwards."
now i understand why i get negative result because i did not improve it and whenever i failed i started from zero so i used to start loop from zero instead of 1 % increment position thanks JP
So many of Petersons videos seems to speak to me, god i need to get my life in order, i'm 30 and going fucking nowhere, and the depression is only building up due to my procrastinating constantly, but the depressions also causes the procrastination, how the fuck am I meant to move forward. :'(
Grugg Clean your room!
You have to just push yourself through. Resilience is key. I've felt that way before and every now and again I feel it again. I see it as motivators. I don't like this feeling and that motivates me. I've dealt with some shit and I just keep on chugging. I've learned a lot about myself through these trials.
You feeling that way is a blessing not a curse. That tells me you have huge ambition and you are like a bullet waiting to be fired though a rifle. You just need to find what will strike your primer. Start small and work up. Build your self esteem and if that means low wage jobs so be it. Do them and take pride. Don't ever let the bitter employees drag you down, I think that was my problem. Surround yourself with very successful people you will gravitate towards higher achievement. Do not associate with people lower than you they will drag you down with them.... Misery loves Company.....
Ha you think you have it bad? I'm 37 years old and my daily life looks like a crossover of Married with Children and Shaun of the Dead.
bite down and one step at a time buddy. Think of it as driving at night. You may not see far ahead, but with small cone of light, it's enough to make the journey. You just have to keep going.
Where was this guy when I needed him 10, 15 years ago?
Add video to Watch later.
So I can watch it *_again_* later.
The ending is great.
I added this to my Watch Later list.
Did you watch it yet? :)
LOL!
Watch it!

This has got to be Dr. Peterson's best video. Thank you.
*sees video about how to stop procrastinating* wow this is so cool I'll watch this

I like Dr. Peterson. He really has helped me with these lectures.
This guy simply can't stop saying truth bombs and slapping my face
Clinical Psychology is officially bad ass! Thank you Dr. Peterson!
“You could have known, but you chose not to.” Ouch.
Dr. Peterson is so good when it comes to his specialty. He's really inspiring. I wish he'd still focus on psych
If you resonate with this, read 7 habits of highly effective people.
If you work in a white collar job then this book is an absolute must. It should be the first class you take in business school.
How I wish I could sit in his classroom!!
Hmmm.. sounds interesting.. il watch this later
giood sense of humour!
Doing that right now, thanks Jordan.
"Whatever turns your crank man" :-)
Peterson is the father many people needed when they were under 20. I am 30 but it is ok, better late than never.
I wish Jordan Peterson was my father
