60 year old woman who listens to you and passes on your books to my 21 and 26 year old sons. We are so happy that you are better and that your wife survived cancer. We all pray for you
You are so blessed to be 21 and having JP as a mentor. My sons are also doing great bc of him. They stand tall and face job interviews or their college exams and they take responsibility for their life.
@@jorjicostava3018 Same here - 25 yrs ago JBP would have been very welcome in my life. Breaking decades-old thinking patterns is incredibly difficult. A catastrophe.
@@pdog547 Im 28 and am struggling to break a 15 year pattern of wanting to be alone most of the time. Im at the point now where i want to be around people and am incredibly bored with my life but have no clue how to do it.
Good to see your condition improving, Dr. Peterson. Thank you for your continued engagement with the public consciousness and for bridging knowledge, empathy and devotion to true speech. Your work is not done. Best wishes from Boston.
@@TurtleChad1 Would that be the same " misleading cultural marxism " theory that has general's and politicians in France and other leaders around the world penning letters to the nation warning them that this ideology if not confronted will destroy their countries ? That one ? Its rhetorical.
Watching Dr Peterson pushing through the pain he’s experiencing is insanely inspiring. I can’t think of any other public figure who would dare to be so authentic.
can we take a moment to appreciate how much his cult hangs on his every word that it suggests perfection in said worship? much of what Peterson said here was utter trip and foolishness, even considering his apologetics. full blown cult-like thinking. that's not even following his stolen "rules for life".
@@desnock I suppose I should chant "Clean your room" as a typical cultist. Perhaps if you did clean your room or get your house in order maybe, just maybe, you won't be so miserable people look up to a man who preaches responsibility.
What my initial pitch for appreciation was, is merely the fact he's humble enough to allow you to walk with him through his organic thought process without any interuptions. Whether that be intentional, or simply a consequence of his true nature, is irrelevant and still worthy of appreciation when the "standard" is a very edited, staged, unrealistically-flawless display of character we see all around us.
I listen to you at least 3 hours a day..... I really appreciate you as a person. I've heard you say that you are followed mostly by men, and that encouraged me to tell you that I am a women... a mother of 3... 34 years old in Ak. I'm a stay at home mom. You get me through the day.
Hello fellow mamas! 29-year-old housewife from UT with 2 littles here.. I introduced my husband to Dr. Peterson's videos a while back and I really appreciate how his work has helped our family. In my pursuit of truth, I found myself face-to-face with our Lord & savior and He is NOT what I ever expected to see. Praise the God who saves! May God bless each of you reading this and please remember how incredibly important the work you do for your family is. As mothers, we sacrifice so much, but it's beyond rewarding. "If you want to change the world, go home & love your family" or something like that, Mother Theresa I think.
38 F. completely insane, i do weird shit, and my religion for the moment is quantum physics. i love transexuals, derrida, and jordan peterson so i don't have any friends. We should start a JP girls club.
I’m also a mother of 3, but envious most of you found Jordan when your kids are young. My two older kids were in and close to college when I discovered Jordan. He has profoundly influenced how I help my kids work through their problems and make sense of the world. I wish I’d found him sooner.
I had missed his face. I am surprised at the level of affection I feel for this man. Likewise the relief that his wife is healing. His daughter is thriving..God is good
If may say god bless you fight the good fight and wanted to share type of information of science with ya in care and honor by tuff experiences 💖👻💎👨🎓👩🎓🗽🤍⚖♟🌪🌬
I have a feeling we haven't even seen Jordan's greatest contribution yet. After his trials and tribulations over the last year, he has come back on another level. Stronger in a way, smarter, better. And he hasn't backed down one bit. We see you out there man, keep doing your thang.
Agreed. One of the most fascinating things about JBP is you get to see where trying to live by the principles he’s worked out takes him in real time. I am pretty sure the best is yet to come which is exciting considering what he’s accomplished so far.
But we also don't want to crush him with the weight of our expectations. There is a careful balance between hopeful encouragement and crushing expectation
@El Chupacabra Care to explain that statement? Respect and admiration aren't the same thing as worship, not even in the slightest. We arent the radical left over here. We dont worship our leaders and yes Doc Peterson IS a leader.
From the cadence and pace of your speech, to the complexion of your skin, each new video is a documentation of your recovery. It is good to see the process. Stay safe, doc.
This man saved my life - I love him like a father - The inner voice was taunting me for years I found out it was called Psychosis - I can happily say (holding back them MANLY tears) it's gone from 100% to barely even a thing... Thank you Jordon Mikhaila and Tammy - ✝
I have a friend who was in a spiritual community. She had symptoms of psychosis. For many years now she has avoided any connection to religious belief because she fears experiencing more psychotic breaks. It is a dilemma.
Hi Jordan! I only just recently discovered your videos, and I've been devouring them! As a Catholic, you've inspired me to take my faith more seriously. As a critical thinker, your discussions and debates are like brain food. :) Thank you, and may God bless you and keep you safe and healthy!
Do you seriously believe God exists, when you look around the Globe, and see nothing but pain and suffering. Obviously it's our own doing, however, what's the point of having "God", for a fucked up bunch of flawed garbage like the human race? I am seriously asking you this question. Why would, and could you believe there is a God, that truly loves and cares for us?
@@vincea9130 Hi Vince! I took a second to think over your question. I believe God exists because I have experienced my own weakness. I know without God sustaining me, my life would be miserable and I'd have nothing. By trusting in God, my sufferings become redemptive and I find joy or peace in the midst of them, strange as that sounds. I also can face the problems of life with bold confidence, believing the words of the gospel that say, "Do not be afraid! God is with you." I consider my faith a great gift, and I hope and pray you can find that too someday. :)
@@Appliciousness I too am Catholic. I l identify with what you have said and I am grateful for Salvation through Jesus Christ. I can't imagine how bleak I'd feel in this fallen world without the hope of Christ and the desire for heaven, away from ALL EVIL. God bless you friend and keep sharing the AUTHENTIC GOSPEL of Jesus Christ. There is no hope without our blessed Lord 🙏❤
@@vincea9130 In general and without citing masters theology level papers, church documents and catechism , the concept of original sin and the curupted / curuptability of man is fundamentally important in the catholic (and Christian in general) worldview.
@@vincea9130 what I don’t understand is how people see suffering in humanity and somehow conclude that it means God doesn’t exist. Like, just because we wreak havoc on ourselves...what does that have to do with God existing or not? I have two parents that love me. I also suffer, make regrettable choices, hurt people even if I don’t mean to, suffer the consequences of other people’s choices by living in a society with them, etc. Does that mean my parents don’t exist or haven’t taught me how to be a good person? Of course not. I don’t think people realize how far reaching the consequences are, of the actions human beings take. It’s like the argument - people are dying of cancer. What God would create cancer, inflict people with it or allow people to suffer with it? That whole concept is so short sighted it’s literally laughable. People have been around, exercising their will, for a LONG time. All the choices we’ve made, chemicals we’ve created, waters we’ve polluted, trash we’ve piled up, food supply we’ve corrupted, etc., makes it pretty obvious how things like cancer and disease develop, and that God has nothing to do with it. The long lasting and far reaching consequences of all the things happening around the globe accumulate, collect, grow, mutate, and spread to people causing disease that innocent people will suffer with. This idea that because humanity suffers then God must not exist is just intellectually lazy to me.
Dr. Peterson, I find it remarkable that you share so much of yourself to all of us. What a blessing it is! It’s no wonder so many of us feel that you are the parent or mentor we never had that turned our lives around for the better, despite having never met you.
For those of you who like me have been inspired by Jordan and his mind, he won’t be around forever. The young like myself must grow up and try our best to live the way Jordan has. Speaking the truth (or at least not lying) and trying to be a light on the world instead of a blight. Let’s do our best to make the world a better place together using what our internet dad has taught us.
We should all take the time to give thanks and show our appreciation that this man is once again sharing his vast wisdom. He has been greatly missed and the world needs him now more than ever.
This gentleman is seriously a good and rare human being. A heart of gold and a superior intellect. What a gift to witness and be alive at the same time. Thank you so much Dr for sharing yourself with us and helping so many around the world. God bless you
I think that Jordan Peterson’s “heart of gold” is often, sadly, under-appreciated. In the age of “Virtue Signalling”, genuine virtues when publicly displayed, can be dismissed as merely performative by those immersed in our popular culture.
It seems you are getting a bit better and better each week - thank God for that and thank you for persisting during your recent struggles. And thank you to Tammy, Mikhaila and your support network. My world is forever changed thanks to you and I share that knowledge with my children, my wife and my friends.
I was watching one of Jordan Peterson‘s podcast and he explained how his process in the morning went getting up struggling having to go for walks no energy taking naps then mustering up enough energy to work three hours then wiped out again I don’t remember how he said he was sleeping, But during one of these recent podcast he said something drastically changed and he has his energy back I don’t remember what he said he did if he was taking a supplement or something if you watch all his podcasts and we can remember could you please reply and let me know what gave him his energy back…Thanks I will check back on this post and see if anybody replies or I could be emailed at davejeary @ gmail. Thanks again in advance
When this man leaves this world his name will be remembered amongst the greats. Future generations will be astounded to hear that he was controversial and hated by so many.
I was thinking that same thought myself the other day. He is one of the great intellectual thinkers as he is influencing many ppl with his wisdom and intelligence and I suspect he will for many generations to come :)
He’s brilliant and he says a lot of truth. He has the courage to take on the Left that would suppress that truth. But never let your guide be your god.
We live in two worlds, one of the mind, the other is the physical world we share we everyone else. JP does a great job of bringing these worlds into sync. Thank You, JP.
@@konalady8089 Please check out "Tammy Peterson's Backstory" from their daughter Mikhaila Peterson's channel! There's also another interview with her from Curt Jaimungal's channel.
I love that he doesn’t disneyify relationships. He says they’re worth it but with a huge caveat that they are hard. I don’t think it’s just intimate relationships, the relationship with my boss has taken inner work to get over my feelings about them. Thank you JBP I don’t care what anyone says you really know psychology and are an excellent counsel.
I love the way you are looking continually in to the camera as if to a specific person, even though you are not talking to any one person in particular. Feels intimate, like we are all in the same room.
I've survived a lot of medical complications, some where even the doctors were shocked. I know how it feels to know that you are so close to death you can feel him, it's not a pleasant experience. You truly are an inspiration to me, and I am stoked to see that you have actually WON over. It'll be hard to imagine my life without meeting you and your lectures and I hope to live it in a way that will minimize the suffering everyone goes through, something that I figured out while watching your lectures. You helped me realize my aim in life and for that I will forever stay grateful, so thank you for not giving up!
"Proceeds to answer 20 questions at once" like that´s a fucking accomplishment. Try being a nurse working 12 hour shift after 4 hours of sleep while suffering from a migraine.
So wonderful to see you getting stronger and healthier! I pray for and look forward to the day you are pain free and back to 100% health!. I have been listening and following you for the past couple of years -and so appreciate your heart as well as your brilliance. Please come to the Nashville, TN area so that I can finally shake your hand. God Bless you, Jordan!
an example of people seeing what they want to see vs what is. he is looking disheveled, exhausted, out of sorts. He is grasping at sanity by avoiding introspection by trying to be a cult leader to folks worse off than he is. if you really cared about the man, you'd stop projecting your undeniable need to follow on him or any of his ilk. learn to critically think, read, and adult - simple advice and I won't scam you out of your money or need to ass kiss.
@@brittanybuttler4152 yes, we get the lot of you have daddy issues. that IS a problem. but a drug addicted attention starved contrarian nihilist has his own problems without being burdened by yours.
Dr. Peterson, you should do more Q&As, your experience as a psychologist and knowledge in philosophy truly shines when you help people somewhat directly like this
Completely baffled as to why it seems so much hate gets channelled towards this man. So bizarre. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, ideas & energy, even when, like right now, you may not have as much energy as at other times. I am grateful, very grateful, that you share yourself with the world
I think in a way you have the answer to the question: You are grateful that Peterson shares himself with the world. A lot of people want that gratitude directed towards them instead. Many think that Peterson does not deserve the gratitude that he receives, and you see it in how those people react to him: How he's saying nothing new, that he's just yet another self-help book author, how he's conning people out of their money, how he's evil and his ideas are evil and everyone who follow him are fools or evil as well. They need to minimize him as much as possible, because these people feel small and insignificant, and they've convinced themselves that what they do helps other people, make the world a better place; but then they see all this gratitude flow towards Jordan they go insane, screaming "Why not ME!?".
@@rahn45 Thanks for this reply. To me it's sad that Jordan appears to suffer so much hostility for the ideas he shares. The way you describe the situation helped me to think about this situation with a smile. Communicating a serious point in this way, with a light touch, was pleasurable to read. Thanks
The hate mainly stems from how he became so widely noticed in the first place: him speaking out against the c-16 bill in Canada. People then and now continue to absolutely refuse to listen to everything he has to say. He's taken out of context a lot and interviewers edit their videos with him to make him appear sexist, angry, transphobic ect. I suppose for more views and whatnot. It's disgusting.
You don't realize but there is ideological war going on where left tells that your own personal state is due to oppression by others. And they are dominating everywhere colleges, big companies, media, political governments. Peterson's idea is completely opposite of it asking individuals to take responsibility and find meaning in their life by taking those responsibilities. He is antithesis of this oppression culture, hence so much hate. They target each individual ruthlessly who stands in their way, and they are right now at position where they literally lead the narrative, making Peterson a Villain is very easy job, only stopping factor is real people listening to peterson and improving their life.
perhaps you haven't heard his simpleminded rants against child-free couples and implied assertions on the superiority of western 'judeo-christian' culture
When you consider what the free societies have created since WW2, this crisis could be followed by a great cultural, scientific and economic boom in the coming years
These words and videos have saved so many lives and bettered countless others. I can’t fathom as too why anyone could possibly hate this man. Perhaps not agree with his methods, buts it’s undeniable he’s a positive force for the world. He’s helped people help themselves, he’s helped people save themselves, probably than you could fill in multiple football stadium
Its so good to see his genuine smile appear on his face as his mind hits on some humorous aspect of the topic he's discussing. He's really recovering! And his sense of humor is indispensable to his persuasive ability.
New JBP content everyday, is this 2017? What a blessing to have this man back at it. Much love and respect. Really enjoying these new podcasts and it's amazing you started doing those Q&A's again.
Dr. Peterson, sir, you inspire me to be a better man, husband, step-father, neighbor, son, etc. I just purchased your book, Maps of Meaning and I am devouring it. I can't get enough of your thinking, and your deep insights into life and living. I am a Christian, so apart from the Bible, and your books and all the content you have on UA-cam have changed me into a better man. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I'm so glad you are doing better. I've been praying for your continued recovery, and for you to regain strength so you can get back to where you want to get. You are the best therapist I never had! Your teaching resonates so much with me and with my soul. You are such a phenomenal human being! May God richly bless you and your continued recovery!
Dr. Peterson, I know you’ve previously said something to the effect of feeling like your only operating at 5% of your capacity. I want to thank you for having the courage to speak and put yourself out there even in such a compromised state of being. While you’re not at 100%, your interviews and words of wisdom are so valuable, insightful & helpful. Thank you again.
IT is weird indeed. Everywhere I comment, people tell me how much they love me and my content. Sometimes IT is annoying. But right now, IT would be okay. So say something nice about my content, dear fenis
While that’s a nice thing to say to someone, I find it hard to believe that anyone outside his immediate circle would have seen him on his worst days and therefore would be able to make that assertion. It may very well be true but it also might not. Jordan has been through a hell of a lot in the past few years and to say that even on his worst days, he is better than the majority of people not only holds him to an impossibly high standard, but also diminishes the magnitude to which those bad days effect him.
I've watched many of your vidoes. Not just from your channel. I've been nervous to write a comment because I want to write the biggest possible compliment I could ever formulate. With that defeat in mind I would simply like to say thank-you.
I am 69 years old. Been married 50 years. I have been very inspired by you and Tammy. Life is tough for all of us, but both you and Tammy have shown us we must transcend our hardships into the higher calling for the good. Makaila is a strong young woman who respects her parents. May God Bless your entire family so you may continue to bless people you do not know. ❤️
I only recently heard of you and I am already a huge fan of yours. Not sure what your challenges were the past year but I am glad you are on the mend. I now track all your content and am an avid listener. Thank you for you.
I cant believe no one replied. Im not completely up to speed myself but he had serious health problems due to some prescription medication he was taking, his wife was diagnosed with cancer and he lost it there for a bit. She seems to be in remission and he has gone completely off medication. He did a podcast with his daughter where they discussed all of this. Sometimes i find myself listening some of his videos twice as not everything sinks in frombthe first time
Yeah, the interview with his daughter was insanity. He was gone for over a year and came back looking like hell. Like someone you loved died and then returned and you appreciate them all the more for it. You can find the interview, it's from June or July of 2020 on his channel, but also on Mikhaila's
*"Everything in life is easier when you don't concern yourself with what other people are doing."* The chances of you seeing this comment is pretty low, but if you did, *I hope you have an amazing day.* 🖤
I cannot wait to see you lecture on exodus. I’m Jewish and you’ve convinced me that it’s worthwhile to return to my faith. Listening to your analysis of the text I grew up learning in school is very helpful for me. Thank you dr. Peterson, our internet dad
I opened up a bible for the first time in my life as a secular agnostic a couple years ago and there is something so wonderfully special about the Torah. There is nothing else quite like it. The story of Moshe Rabbenu at Mount Sinai is probably my favorite to ponder. For me, Exodus tells us how important names are. Personally, I had an out-of-body experience when I misused drugs in my youth and it was my name that brought my soul back to my body. It is when our soul dwells on earth that our name channels energy to the body. Anyway, apologies for my rambling.. Best of luck to you in your journey!
It´s one of the best advices you can give any man. it´s applicable even for people at theit lowest of points where they are willing to kill themself. those people can´t respond to things aimed at stars, they are at the bottom and thats where this advice can pick you up and through all the stages upwards it can lift you till you stand on solid ground.
Mr Peterson You are the PERFECT example on In All Things Give Thanks ! I'm so grateful for what you went (or are going) through since the day you "got in troble" for explaining grammar on some words like "shehe" is not a word your freedom to speak wasn't giving to you ... the rest of this journey is a painful distance memory Because of all of this painful injustices a Star 🌟was born... A New Beginning for you ! ...and bcs of this new life in you I (we) benefited !!
"Justifiable does not mean, it is helpful." I heard this before from Dr. Peterson but it dawned on me how true it is. I say I had willful blindness before. You have been in my prayer daily. Thank you for your knowledge and wisdom.
Now that upload was poetic. You just uploaded this video while the bells of my local church were tolling, signifying the resurrection of Christ. I am Greek Orthodox (thats why we celebrate easter now) and you helped me understand why i like Christianity even though i never considered my self to be religious at all. Very happy to see your videos / appearances are more and more frequent. Talk about resurrection. Χρηστός Ανέστη.
The son of Jesus Christ (King David) is reporting for duty. He was a man whose tongue held no lies, For he was the direct descendant of our father in the heavenly skies. Born to a body of fleshy sin, Though what laid beneath was unlike the rest of his kin. Jesus had the utmost grace, Never being wavered by evils face. He was wise beyond any years, Performing miracles that would bring crowds to tears. A beacon of light on top of a starless mountain, Where words of wisdom poured out of him as if there ran a cosmic fountain. His eyes pierced through you with a single glance, Leaving even the most hardened individuals in quite the trance. The Holy Spirit so ever majestically flowed inside this man, Naturally people caught notice and became a fan. Students began showing up from every mold, When they heard his words their hearts were sold. Wicked men put a price on Jesus's head, He was wanted alive or dead. Despite this he and his disciples continued their teachings, Where on occasion they endured terrible beatings. One of the twelve apostles turned to black, No longer having Jesus's back. Judas Iscariot had done Satan's bidding, And it is in hell where he now is sitting. Jesus died on the cross to pay for our shortcoming, However don't be saddened for if you believe in him you will see him at your homecoming. There he sits at the right hand of God's throne, Being the voice of truth and love that we all have known. Satan's tongue is coated in a layer of deceit, And he tramples over promises with his feet. He's a being who is bound by deceptions, Whose very essence oozes with misconceptions. He struggles to look you in your eyes, For his gaze holds nothing but lies. On occasion he will give you his hand, But don't be fooled by his stand. He seeks to corrupt your heart, You would be wise to avoid him from the start. Seeking quick pleasures and casting aside love, He traverses this land with push and shove. Now Lucifer was once not lost, But pride blinded him at a cost. Disobeying God he waged war, Becoming detestable to the core. Today he is the ruler of Earth, Though for all his power he has no real worth. However most of us have still been sold, Giving into sin and becoming cold. Nearly everyone is a puppet dancing on strings, Marching to delusion for their unjust kings. My people have given into lust, Becoming robots full of rust. However you my child are the exception, So when you meet me don't forget to mention. That you alone have been granted the key, And before your glory they shall all bend a knee.
When I hear and see you, Dr. Peterson, I witness a deep and selfless concern for humanity which blasts at me during your silent pauses and in the strain in your facial expressions. In between, your words place me against a mirror to check on my journey to be better. Thank you!
It beggars belief that there are so many individuals, that have this incredibly scewed collective understanding of who Dr. Jordan Peterson is.. it is incredible how little empathy, from those that claim to have it in abundance, has been shown to the Peterson family over this testing time for all of you.. but it is also incredible how you keep going, despite all of it, Jordan. I am just some guy from Eastern Europe, but I am also far richer than I would be, had I not discovered your lectures and videos. So, from the bottom of my heart - thank you. Just, thank you so so much for all that you do and let light shine upon you, Jordan, and your wonderful family.
Yes. I love that he's really got his podcast going and he's had some really interesting guests. It's delightful to hear him talk about other subjects rather than Bill C15 or whatever the heck it was up in Canada. Great conversationalist.
"Every student needs a teacher. Every traveler needs a guide. Every explorer needs a map. You have all of these now. Take heart. Now you must find the courage and the determination to proceed. Do not become fixated on the great spiritual assistance that you have. Rather, become focused on solving problems today and tomorrow and the day after. Solve a little problem today and you will be able to solve a greater one tomorrow. Start with little things. Attend to the practical matters in your life. Bring your life into greater harmony. Do not try to make everything beautiful, quiet and peaceful. This is not what we mean. What we mean is bringing things into right order." Living the Way of Knowledge - by Marshall Vian Summers
however not all students know how to discern a fool from a wise man. traveler's can mistake a guide for a cult leader. the mapping needs to be considered thoughtfully and soberly - so relying on an addict MIGHT be a red flag. Solving little problems like not relying on others to think for you WILL avoid bigger problems in the future, for sure.
I'm sure many people have said this, but it's the first time I have been early enough that it might be noticed. We are so glad you are back Dr Peterson, but I am sure I am not alone here in saying, we miss your beard. It looked great on you and gave you an added air of sophistication.
@@frankmuysers6001 I know that dude, it's not like I was recommending a boycott unless he grew it back. I also appreciate he has been very ill, and lots of genuine people keep telling him he looks so much better (he does). I liked his beard and think it looked fantastic on him.
Jordan - I love you. Thanks for being back and at it. Just read '12 rules for life'. As a 22 year old young guy, it's the best read i've ever had. Thanks for being a father figure for all of us.
My mother's prayers and mine for your health, dr Peterson, were answered. We are so thankful for the many ways our lives bettered since we listened to your podcasts, audiobooks and watched your lectures on UA-cam. We can't thank you enough 🤗

This is wonderful! Much appreciated
I knew someone with big heart will invest their time this way.
Great work! Thank you.

@@Aniket-m3c dude if i knew jbp at your age... you have so much potential!!!
You are so blessed to be 21 and having JP as a mentor. My sons are also doing great bc of him. They stand tall and face job interviews or their college exams and they take responsibility for their life.
@@jorjicostava3018 Same here - 25 yrs ago JBP would have been very welcome in my life. Breaking decades-old thinking patterns is incredibly difficult. A catastrophe.

Good to see your condition improving, Dr. Peterson. Thank you for your continued engagement with the public consciousness and for bridging knowledge, empathy and devotion to true speech. Your work is not done. Best wishes from Boston.
He is just a conspiracy theorist who spreads his misleading cultural marxism anti semitic theory.
He doesn't practice free speech when it comes to Israel or anything to do with Judaism.
@@TurtleChad1 Would that be the same " misleading cultural marxism " theory that has general's and politicians in France and other leaders around the world penning letters to the nation warning them that this ideology if not confronted will destroy their countries ? That one ? Its rhetorical.
@@TurtleChad1 anti semitic theory?🤦♂️🤦♂️
Good to see you here!
Watching Dr Peterson pushing through the pain he’s experiencing is insanely inspiring. I can’t think of any other public figure who would dare to be so authentic.
Trump, Hitler, those cults (like the evangelical movement) with no actual clue of what they speak of? Hardly stellar company.
@@desnock ahh the same cults of clintons, obamas, and who can forget the alphabet community? Now thats a cult with chairman mao!
@@desnock What did Hitler speak about that he didn't know about?
@@justanobody4983 well said.
@@desnock is at it again trolling JP videos. Disengage, I repeat, disengage! lol
Can we take a moment to appreciate that this man just runs this in ONE TAKE with NO EDITS?
can we take a moment to appreciate how much his cult hangs on his every word that it suggests perfection in said worship?
much of what Peterson said here was utter trip and foolishness, even considering his apologetics.
full blown cult-like thinking. that's not even following his stolen "rules for life".
@@desnock I suppose I should chant "Clean your room" as a typical cultist.
Perhaps if you did clean your room or get your house in order maybe, just maybe, you won't be so miserable people look up to a man who preaches responsibility.
What my initial pitch for appreciation was, is merely the fact he's humble enough to allow you to walk with him through his organic thought process without any interuptions.
Whether that be intentional, or simply a consequence of his true nature, is irrelevant and still worthy of appreciation when the "standard" is a very edited, staged, unrealistically-flawless display of character we see all around us.
@@brittanybuttler4152 I suppose you are, right? All cults try with the basic self help bullshit. Learn to get past the obvious.

Hello fellow mamas! 29-year-old housewife from UT with 2 littles here.. I introduced my husband to Dr. Peterson's videos a while back and I really appreciate how his work has helped our family. In my pursuit of truth, I found myself face-to-face with our Lord & savior and He is NOT what I ever expected to see. Praise the God who saves! May God bless each of you reading this and please remember how incredibly important the work you do for your family is. As mothers, we sacrifice so much, but it's beyond rewarding. "If you want to change the world, go home & love your family" or something like that, Mother Theresa I think.
38 F. completely insane, i do weird shit, and my religion for the moment is quantum physics. i love transexuals, derrida, and jordan peterson so i don't have any friends.

I’m also a mother of 3, but envious most of you found Jordan when your kids are young. My two older kids were in and close to college when I discovered Jordan. He has profoundly influenced how I help my kids work through their problems and make sense of the world. I wish I’d found him sooner.
I had missed his face. I am surprised at the level of affection I feel for this man. Likewise the relief that his wife is healing. His daughter is thriving..God is good
You’re surprised?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Dr. Peterson I was heading into the void and you saved me. Thank you.
He was just a guide, you saved you. Well done. If you make a little progress every day you will continue to become more awsome.
@@roybatty2544 he's just a guide as well.
@@j_freed lol not the only significant guide at all. Just the one you prescribe to.
His videos are signposts for the the right path.
I think you should go to the void then come back, there's gold there.
I have a feeling we haven't even seen Jordan's greatest contribution yet. After his trials and tribulations over the last year, he has come back on another level. Stronger in a way, smarter, better. And he hasn't backed down one bit. We see you out there man, keep doing your thang.
Agreed. One of the most fascinating things about JBP is you get to see where trying to live by the principles he’s worked out takes him in real time. I am pretty sure the best is yet to come which is exciting considering what he’s accomplished so far.
He is a very amazing man! Very grateful to have found his free lectures. Thanks so much.
But we also don't want to crush him with the weight of our expectations. There is a careful balance between hopeful encouragement and crushing expectation
Hell yeah, America loves a COMEBACK storyline 😎💪👼.
@El Chupacabra Care to explain that statement? Respect and admiration aren't the same thing as worship, not even in the slightest. We arent the radical left over here. We dont worship our leaders and yes Doc Peterson IS a leader.
From the cadence and pace of your speech, to the complexion of your skin, each new video is a documentation of your recovery.
It is good to see the process.
Stay safe, doc.
This man saved my life - I love him like a father - The inner voice was taunting me for years I found out it was called Psychosis - I can happily say (holding back them MANLY tears) it's gone from 100% to barely even a thing... Thank you Jordon Mikhaila and Tammy - ✝
I have a friend who was in a spiritual community. She had symptoms of psychosis. For many years now she has avoided any connection to religious belief because she fears experiencing more psychotic breaks. It is a dilemma.

"Love and truth. That's the way forward." Love you man.
Hi Jordan! I only just recently discovered your videos, and I've been devouring them! As a Catholic, you've inspired me to take my faith more seriously. As a critical thinker, your discussions and debates are like brain food. :) Thank you, and may God bless you and keep you safe and healthy!
Do you seriously believe God exists, when you look around the Globe, and see nothing but pain and suffering. Obviously it's our own doing, however, what's the point of having "God", for a fucked up bunch of flawed garbage like the human race? I am seriously asking you this question. Why would, and could you believe there is a God, that truly loves and cares for us?
@@vincea9130 Hi Vince! I took a second to think over your question. I believe God exists because I have experienced my own weakness. I know without God sustaining me, my life would be miserable and I'd have nothing. By trusting in God, my sufferings become redemptive and I find joy or peace in the midst of them, strange as that sounds. I also can face the problems of life with bold confidence, believing the words of the gospel that say, "Do not be afraid! God is with you." I consider my faith a great gift, and I hope and pray you can find that too someday. :)
@@Appliciousness I too am Catholic. I l identify with what you have said and I am grateful for Salvation through Jesus Christ. I can't imagine how bleak I'd feel in this fallen world without the hope of Christ and the desire for heaven, away from ALL EVIL. God bless you friend and keep sharing the AUTHENTIC GOSPEL of Jesus Christ. There is no hope without our blessed Lord 🙏❤
@@vincea9130 In general and without citing masters theology level papers, church documents and catechism , the concept of original sin and the curupted / curuptability of man is fundamentally important in the catholic (and Christian in general) worldview.
@@vincea9130 what I don’t understand is how people see suffering in humanity and somehow conclude that it means God doesn’t exist. Like, just because we wreak havoc on ourselves...what does that have to do with God existing or not? I have two parents that love me. I also suffer, make regrettable choices, hurt people even if I don’t mean to, suffer the consequences of other people’s choices by living in a society with them, etc. Does that mean my parents don’t exist or haven’t taught me how to be a good person? Of course not. I don’t think people realize how far reaching the consequences are, of the actions human beings take. It’s like the argument - people are dying of cancer. What God would create cancer, inflict people with it or allow people to suffer with it? That whole concept is so short sighted it’s literally laughable. People have been around, exercising their will, for a LONG time. All the choices we’ve made, chemicals we’ve created, waters we’ve polluted, trash we’ve piled up, food supply we’ve corrupted, etc., makes it pretty obvious how things like cancer and disease develop, and that God has nothing to do with it. The long lasting and far reaching consequences of all the things happening around the globe accumulate, collect, grow, mutate, and spread to people causing disease that innocent people will suffer with. This idea that because humanity suffers then God must not exist is just intellectually lazy to me.
We love you, Jordan. Thankful for your willingness to be so vulnerable with us. Praying for you 🙏🏼♥️
I hope this beautiful man, JP , has a clue as to how very deeply he is loved by so many . Praying for him. 🙏
He said it was one of the factors that helped him go through all of what happened recently. All the positive comments and good wishes.
I just want to express how much love I feel for this human being. Thank you.
Dr. Peterson, I find it remarkable that you share so much of yourself to all of us. What a blessing it is! It’s no wonder so many of us feel that you are the parent or mentor we never had that turned our lives around for the better, despite having never met you.
God bless you and everyone reading this.

And God bless you too. ❤️
@@TheGuiltsOfUsSad because you won't last a second if you're right.
I really enjoyed this and my heart breaks when I think about the continual pain that Jordan is in... My admiration for this man continues to grow.
Yes his transformation from early vids to now is quite unnerving, gov should F off , quit hurting our teachers and inspirational ppl
For those of you who like me have been inspired by Jordan and his mind, he won’t be around forever. The young like myself must grow up and try our best to live the way Jordan has. Speaking the truth (or at least not lying) and trying to be a light on the world instead of a blight.
Let’s do our best to make the world a better place together using what our internet dad has taught us.
And especially GOD
I'm so glad the Q&A segment is back. I find it enormously helpful.
We should all take the time to give thanks and show our appreciation that this man is once again sharing his vast wisdom. He has been greatly missed and the world needs him now more than ever.
This gentleman is seriously a good and rare human being. A heart of gold and a superior intellect. What a gift to witness and be alive at the same time. Thank you so much Dr for sharing yourself with us and helping so many around the world. God bless you
I think that Jordan Peterson’s “heart of gold” is often, sadly, under-appreciated.
In the age of “Virtue Signalling”, genuine virtues when publicly displayed, can be dismissed as merely performative by those immersed in our popular culture.
@@suzimonkey345 those are the cynicals of this world that couldn't recognise love and a heart of gold even if it hit them hard in the face.

@@Helloitsme328 he is a true blessing to this world🙏🏾💕
I was watching one of Jordan Peterson‘s podcast and he explained how his process in the morning went getting up struggling having to go for walks no energy taking naps then mustering up enough energy to work three hours then wiped out again I don’t remember how he said he was sleeping, But during one of these recent podcast he said something drastically changed and he has his energy back I don’t remember what he said he did if he was taking a supplement or something if you watch all his podcasts and we can remember could you please reply and let me know what gave him his energy back…Thanks I will check back on this post and see if anybody replies or I could be emailed at davejeary @ gmail. Thanks again in advance
You will always be in my prayers Jordan 🙏🏾 Full recovery in your Health
When this man leaves this world his name will be remembered amongst the greats. Future generations will be astounded to hear that he was controversial and hated by so many.
I was thinking that same thought myself the other day. He is one of the great intellectual thinkers as he is influencing many ppl with his wisdom and intelligence and I suspect he will for many generations to come :)
He’s brilliant and he says a lot of truth. He has the courage to take on the Left that would suppress that truth. But never let your guide be your god.
He said his health wasn’t the best. Why are you even mentioning him dying? What’s wrong with you? don’t you know people like him live forever
Always good to hear from you Dr. Peterson :)
Hai Tom 🤩
Why don’t you talk to each other? You could have a great convo about psychs.
And spirituality of course
Stop pushing your new age trip bullshit please, it has nothing to do with finding god, thanks.
Listening to Dr. Peterson is like taking a masterclass in reality.
We live in two worlds, one of the mind, the other is the physical world we share we everyone else. JP does a great job of bringing these worlds into sync. Thank You, JP.
I saw Jordan's wife getting interviewed the other day. She's very lovely, great to see the other half of this man that I admire so much!
I watched her too & came away feeling so great. Gem of a lady.
Can you let us know where the interview was so we can look it up. Is it on UA-cam. I would love to watch it
@@konalady8089 Please check out "Tammy Peterson's Backstory" from their daughter Mikhaila Peterson's channel! There's also another interview with her from Curt Jaimungal's channel.
I love this format, where he can just riff on questions without interruption. It's food for the soul.
Agreed!!
For a man who feels he needs to be sharper - you appear sharp to me....thankfully......so good to have you back JBP.
I love that he doesn’t disneyify relationships. He says they’re worth it but with a huge caveat that they are hard. I don’t think it’s just intimate relationships, the relationship with my boss has taken inner work to get over my feelings about them. Thank you JBP I don’t care what anyone says you really know psychology and are an excellent counsel.

@@TheGuiltsOfUs fair enough mate, help me to understand what leads you to that conclusion. I'm interested to hear your take on it.
I love the way you are looking continually in to the camera as if to a specific person, even though you are not talking to any one person in particular. Feels intimate, like we are all in the same room.
I've survived a lot of medical complications, some where even the doctors were shocked.
I know how it feels to know that you are so close to death you can feel him, it's not a pleasant experience.
You truly are an inspiration to me, and I am stoked to see that you have actually WON over.
It'll be hard to imagine my life without meeting you and your lectures and I hope to live it in a way that will minimize the suffering everyone goes through, something that I figured out while watching your lectures.
You helped me realize my aim in life and for that I will forever stay grateful, so thank you for not giving up!
This man took the time to answer personal questions and give amazing advice. 👏

Dr. Peterson, you should do more Q&As, your experience as a psychologist and knowledge in philosophy truly shines when you help people somewhat directly like this
Completely baffled as to why it seems so much hate gets channelled towards this man. So bizarre. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, ideas & energy, even when, like right now, you may not have as much energy as at other times. I am grateful, very grateful, that you share yourself with the world
I think in a way you have the answer to the question: You are grateful that Peterson shares himself with the world. A lot of people want that gratitude directed towards them instead. Many think that Peterson does not deserve the gratitude that he receives, and you see it in how those people react to him: How he's saying nothing new, that he's just yet another self-help book author, how he's conning people out of their money, how he's evil and his ideas are evil and everyone who follow him are fools or evil as well. They need to minimize him as much as possible, because these people feel small and insignificant, and they've convinced themselves that what they do helps other people, make the world a better place; but then they see all this gratitude flow towards Jordan they go insane, screaming "Why not ME!?".
@@rahn45 Thanks for this reply. To me it's sad that Jordan appears to suffer so much hostility for the ideas he shares. The way you describe the situation helped me to think about this situation with a smile. Communicating a serious point in this way, with a light touch, was pleasurable to read. Thanks
The hate mainly stems from how he became so widely noticed in the first place: him speaking out against the c-16 bill in Canada.
People then and now continue to absolutely refuse to listen to everything he has to say. He's taken out of context a lot and interviewers edit their videos with him to make him appear sexist, angry, transphobic ect. I suppose for more views and whatnot. It's disgusting.
You don't realize but there is ideological war going on where left tells that your own personal state is due to oppression by others. And they are dominating everywhere colleges, big companies, media, political governments. Peterson's idea is completely opposite of it asking individuals to take responsibility and find meaning in their life by taking those responsibilities. He is antithesis of this oppression culture, hence so much hate. They target each individual ruthlessly who stands in their way, and they are right now at position where they literally lead the narrative, making Peterson a Villain is very easy job, only stopping factor is real people listening to peterson and improving their life.
perhaps you haven't heard his simpleminded rants against child-free couples and implied assertions on the superiority of western 'judeo-christian' culture
2020 and 2021 has been rough but seeing and hearing Dr. Peterson here makes it all a lot better.
When you consider what the free societies have created since WW2, this crisis could be followed by a great cultural, scientific and economic boom in the coming years
I'm a romanian orthodox Christian, and i'm very happy to hear this! God bless you and your family! Greetings from Berlin, Germany! 🙏👨👩👦❤️
These words and videos have saved so many lives and bettered countless others. I can’t fathom as too why anyone could possibly hate this man. Perhaps not agree with his methods, buts it’s undeniable he’s a positive force for the world. He’s helped people help themselves, he’s helped people save themselves, probably than you could fill in multiple football stadium
Its so good to see his genuine smile appear on his face as his mind hits on some humorous aspect of the topic he's discussing. He's really recovering! And his sense of humor is indispensable to his persuasive ability.
Yes, A sense of humor is essential for recovery. 👍
It's always a pleasure to stumble upon Jordan B Peterson videos because they never leave me the same afterwards. Thank you Mr Peterson 🙏🏼
I'm an Iranian and Jordan Peterson changed my life for the good. Thank you Canada 🇨🇦 for JP!

The way that Dr Peterson talks about managing anger sounds alot like mindfulness. To observe your emotions without judgement.

Thank you so much for everything. Your existence means a lot.
I love you Jordan and thank God for you changing my life. May God bless you and your family
Dr. Peterson, sir, you inspire me to be a better man, husband, step-father, neighbor, son, etc. I just purchased your book, Maps of Meaning and I am devouring it. I can't get enough of your thinking, and your deep insights into life and living. I am a Christian, so apart from the Bible, and your books and all the content you have on UA-cam have changed me into a better man. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I'm so glad you are doing better. I've been praying for your continued recovery, and for you to regain strength so you can get back to where you want to get. You are the best therapist I never had! Your teaching resonates so much with me and with my soul. You are such a phenomenal human being! May God richly bless you and your continued recovery!
Dr. Peterson, I know you’ve previously said something to the effect of feeling like your only operating at 5% of your capacity.
I want to thank you for having the courage to speak and put yourself out there even in such a compromised state of being.
While you’re not at 100%, your interviews and words of wisdom are so valuable, insightful & helpful.
Thank you again.

@@akashbhullar True, and as I stopped dairy, it went away by itself! I am intolerant to dairy.
While that’s a nice thing to say to someone, I find it hard to believe that anyone outside his immediate circle would have seen him on his worst days and therefore would be able to make that assertion. It may very well be true but it also might not. Jordan has been through a hell of a lot in the past few years and to say that even on his worst days, he is better than the majority of people not only holds him to an impossibly high standard, but also diminishes the magnitude to which those bad days effect him.
I've missed these Q&A videos with Peterson, they're almost always filled with nuggets of gems to take from it.

I cant believe no one replied. Im not completely up to speed myself but he had serious health problems due to some prescription medication he was taking, his wife was diagnosed with cancer and he lost it there for a bit. She seems to be in remission and he has gone completely off medication. He did a podcast with his daughter where they discussed all of this. Sometimes i find myself listening some of his videos twice as not everything sinks in frombthe first time
It makes me happy to see new people finding value in Dr. Peterson's work. Welcome.
Yeah, the interview with his daughter was insanity. He was gone for over a year and came back looking like hell. Like someone you loved died and then returned and you appreciate them all the more for it. You can find the interview, it's from June or July of 2020 on his channel, but also on Mikhaila's
*"Everything in life is easier when you don't concern yourself with what other people are doing."*
The chances of you seeing this comment is pretty low, but if you did, *I hope you have an amazing day.* 🖤
You're the best Jordan, I could listen to you all day.
He never sounds like he’s trying to sound intelligent; he just is intelligent.
Well he was - he’s pretty clueless about what is going on at present. Either that or sold out.
Thank you Mr Peterson for changing my perception of life, saving me from ignorance and teaching me to be happy with what I have.
I cannot wait to see you lecture on exodus. I’m Jewish and you’ve convinced me that it’s worthwhile to return to my faith. Listening to your analysis of the text I grew up learning in school is very helpful for me. Thank you dr. Peterson, our internet dad
Nice
I opened up a bible for the first time in my life as a secular agnostic a couple years ago and there is something so wonderfully special about the Torah. There is nothing else quite like it. The story of Moshe Rabbenu at Mount Sinai is probably my favorite to ponder. For me, Exodus tells us how important names are. Personally, I had an out-of-body experience when I misused drugs in my youth and it was my name that brought my soul back to my body. It is when our soul dwells on earth that our name channels energy to the body. Anyway, apologies for my rambling.. Best of luck to you in your journey!
@Chidori457 Indeed. I agree.
I am the way the truth and the life it all makes sense though my lord Jesus Christ 🙏

It´s one of the best advices you can give any man. it´s applicable even for people at theit lowest of points where they are willing to kill themself. those people can´t respond to things aimed at stars, they are at the bottom and thats where this advice can pick you up and through all the stages upwards it can lift you till you stand on solid ground.
Mr Peterson
You are the PERFECT example on
In All Things Give Thanks !
I'm so grateful for what you went (or are going) through since the day you "got in troble" for explaining grammar on some words like "shehe" is not a word your
freedom to speak wasn't giving to you ... the rest of this journey is a painful distance memory
Because of all of this painful injustices a Star 🌟was born...
A New Beginning for you !
...and bcs of this new life in you I (we) benefited !!
Dr peterson please live forever.. We all love you so much..
"Justifiable does not mean, it is helpful." I heard this before from Dr. Peterson but it dawned on me how true it is. I say I had willful blindness before.
You have been in my prayer daily. Thank you for your knowledge and wisdom.
So good to see and hear you consistently again. You're my favorite critical thinker. A light in a dark world.
Now that upload was poetic. You just uploaded this video while the bells of my local church were tolling, signifying the resurrection of Christ. I am Greek Orthodox (thats why we celebrate easter now) and you helped me understand why i like Christianity even though i never considered my self to be religious at all. Very happy to see your videos / appearances are more and more frequent. Talk about resurrection. Χρηστός Ανέστη.
The son of Jesus Christ (King David) is reporting for duty.
He was a man whose tongue held no lies,
For he was the direct descendant of our father in the heavenly skies.
Born to a body of fleshy sin,
Though what laid beneath was unlike the rest of his kin.
Jesus had the utmost grace,
Never being wavered by evils face.
He was wise beyond any years,
Performing miracles that would bring crowds to tears.
A beacon of light on top of a starless mountain,
Where words of wisdom poured out of him as if there ran a cosmic fountain.
His eyes pierced through you with a single glance,
Leaving even the most hardened individuals in quite the trance.
The Holy Spirit so ever majestically flowed inside this man,
Naturally people caught notice and became a fan.
Students began showing up from every mold,
When they heard his words their hearts were sold.
Wicked men put a price on Jesus's head,
He was wanted alive or dead.
Despite this he and his disciples continued their teachings,
Where on occasion they endured terrible beatings.
One of the twelve apostles turned to black,
No longer having Jesus's back.
Judas Iscariot had done Satan's bidding,
And it is in hell where he now is sitting.
Jesus died on the cross to pay for our shortcoming,
However don't be saddened for if you believe in him you will see him at your homecoming.
There he sits at the right hand of God's throne,
Being the voice of truth and love that we all have known.
Satan's tongue is coated in a layer of deceit,
And he tramples over promises with his feet.
He's a being who is bound by deceptions,
Whose very essence oozes with misconceptions.
He struggles to look you in your eyes,
For his gaze holds nothing but lies.
On occasion he will give you his hand,
But don't be fooled by his stand.
He seeks to corrupt your heart,
You would be wise to avoid him from the start.
Seeking quick pleasures and casting aside love,
He traverses this land with push and shove.
Now Lucifer was once not lost,
But pride blinded him at a cost.
Disobeying God he waged war,
Becoming detestable to the core.
Today he is the ruler of Earth,
Though for all his power he has no real worth.
However most of us have still been sold,
Giving into sin and becoming cold.
Nearly everyone is a puppet dancing on strings,
Marching to delusion for their unjust kings.
My people have given into lust,
Becoming robots full of rust.
However you my child are the exception,
So when you meet me don't forget to mention.
That you alone have been granted the key,
And before your glory they shall all bend a knee.
Christos Anesti! Happy Easter from a fellow Greek Orthodox from Lebanon!
When I hear and see you, Dr. Peterson, I witness a deep and selfless concern for humanity which blasts at me during your silent pauses and in the strain in your facial expressions. In between, your words place me against a mirror to check on my journey to be better. Thank you!
It beggars belief that there are so many individuals, that have this incredibly scewed collective understanding of who Dr. Jordan Peterson is.. it is incredible how little empathy, from those that claim to have it in abundance, has been shown to the Peterson family over this testing time for all of you.. but it is also incredible how you keep going, despite all of it, Jordan. I am just some guy from Eastern Europe, but I am also far richer than I would be, had I not discovered your lectures and videos. So, from the bottom of my heart - thank you. Just, thank you so so much for all that you do and let light shine upon you, Jordan, and your wonderful family.
May god show light to all the goodhearted people
there is no god
God doesn't exist.
JFL at how an "intellectual" who refutes bad ideologies for a living believes in a fictional sky fairy.
WHO DARES SAY HE BELIEVES IN GOD?!!!!!!111
Jordan is a legend - I've listened to 8 of his podcasts with other people the past few days
That is a great idea. Instant philosophy club
Literally listened to all of his lectures/podcasts during work, now i just replay them. Changed my life.
Yes. I love that he's really got his podcast going and he's had some really interesting guests. It's delightful to hear him talk about other subjects rather than Bill C15 or whatever the heck it was up in Canada. Great conversationalist.
he's an utter fool when all is said and done, which his LIFE reflects, if not the worship of fools who need a messiah-fool to lead them.
@@desnock" why the hate bro?" - To quote the great professor Eric Dyson.
"Every student needs a teacher. Every traveler needs a guide. Every explorer needs a map. You have all of these now. Take heart. Now you must find the courage and the determination to proceed. Do not become fixated on the great spiritual assistance that you have. Rather, become focused on solving problems today and tomorrow and the day after. Solve a little problem today and you will be able to solve a greater one tomorrow. Start with little things. Attend to the practical matters in your life. Bring your life into greater harmony. Do not try to make everything beautiful, quiet and peaceful. This is not what we mean. What we mean is bringing things into right order."
Living the Way of Knowledge - by Marshall Vian Summers
however not all students know how to discern a fool from a wise man. traveler's can mistake a guide for a cult leader. the mapping needs to be considered thoughtfully and soberly - so relying on an addict MIGHT be a red flag.
Solving little problems like not relying on others to think for you WILL avoid bigger problems in the future, for sure.
Thank you, Ivan.
Forgiving your mother and forgiving your father opens the door for you a lot of change
You're the earthly father figure all men need, man. I thank God for your existence...
Happy to see you getting stronger and stronger 🥰
Thank you Doctor Peterson, you’ve helped me become the much better person I am today.
I'm sure many people have said this, but it's the first time I have been early enough that it might be noticed.
We are so glad you are back Dr Peterson, but I am sure I am not alone here in saying, we miss your beard. It looked great on you and gave you an added air of sophistication.
Aw let the man keep whatever look he's comfortable with. It's his words that count.
@@frankmuysers6001 I know that dude, it's not like I was recommending a boycott unless he grew it back.
I also appreciate he has been very ill, and lots of genuine people keep telling him he looks so much better (he does).
I liked his beard and think it looked fantastic on him.
@@TSotP lol beard is best. Makes him seem fatherly.
idc what he looks like so long as he keeps being himself
lol
Thanks for offering us the opportunity for q&a with you. Your face really lights up at times. God Bless you.
Absolutely wonderful and worthwhile- thank you and my prayers were answered for your health and recovery
JBP: "maybe I'll do a live Q&A when I'm sharper"
Also JBP: "I'm gonna try to answer all those questions at one time"
Keep challenging yourself 👍
Glad your back and doing better.
I wish I could find a therapist like Jordan. I've gotta be hooked on watching his YT videos when I'm lost in life lol
No Dr Peterson. Thank YOU. For everything. For persisting in spite of everything, internal and external. Thank you from the bottom of the heart.
Jordan - I love you. Thanks for being back and at it. Just read '12 rules for life'. As a 22 year old young guy, it's the best read i've ever had. Thanks for being a father figure for all of us.
Am really happy that my question was answered and it spoke to me in many different levels along with the answers to other questions. Thank you Jordan
Dishing out world class advice, changing lives for the better, but above all else: inventing the Henley - Suit Jacket combo.
I was thinking the same thing.
Much respect.
Pair of ray ban wayfarers would really tie it together
Jordan Peterson is Simultaneously the most misunderstood and profound in his simplicity intellectual of our time
I dream that one day he’ll show up with a full blown FRO
the suit jacket represents order and the Henley represents chaos.
Watched one of your older lectures today after a rough day.. just what i needed. Keep doing this amazing work 👍
