- Jordan Peterson talks in this video about how the narrative you tell yourself each day and what you want (rather than what you expect) determines what you get out of life.

I second that 👍🏽

Your profile picture fits perfectly as a reaction to that 😂

In my experience it takes me years to make progress twoards what I want but over a lifetime you get there eventually. The problem is you only live so long so if it takes 20 years to achieve one goal, you need to pick what you want really carefully. Going all different directions gets you no where.
That's why a self help specialist advocates for an overarching mission that can't be accomplished in a lifetime. The study of one's own mind is an example. It helps to live a self-actualized life where those two or three concrete goals you mentioned are grounded in the values and desires of one's true self, or as close as one can get to it.
That’s a brilliant observation. And part of the problem is that we think we will get there way faster than the time it actually takes
Exactly
it is even harder today, because you have more options to chose from, than people from like...100-50 years ago. you might start to overanalyze and get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of options that you end up not choosing anything, because you don't want to lose the potential of becoming anything you want

You know the man is making an honest attempt when the psychologist says, "Let's not make it more psychological than it needs to be."
He actually is deconstructing the law of attraction without actually calling it the law of attraction. The title is confusing, not misleading. It's really hard to pick up, though. He's using a lot more intellectual jargon then usual.
Because he knows
@@lifebydesign9435 that it’s bs ?
This video has nothing to do with the law of attraction. Its a great video amd It has to do with what you want and how people go for what they want, but not the law. How has no one commented this yet. Dose of Truth why are you baiting people with fake titles?
So if my structure is messed up... If I worship stasis and the status quo because I don't trust myself with any attempt at a worthwhile progression... That means that any attempt to reconsider and criticize those beliefs is intimidating, and any attempt to act it out is even more.
I think so! That's me rn...
I think another word to use as a substitute for "law of attraction" is focus. When you focus on what you want, and you do the daily things necessary to get to your goal in mind, then yes the law of attraction works. There are countless examples of people who perservere in order to attain their goals. They STAY FOCUSED regardless of obstacles. Not eveyone has that kind of will. Plus you have to consider Some goals are easier to achieve in the short term, while others can take much longer. Also, We all have talents and weaknesses unique to us. So certain goals will require group cohesion.
People who say "the law of attraction doesnt work." most likely lack the follow through necessary to reap the fruits of their labor. Or they expect to get to their destination, without the effort required.
That being said, I understand that there are such things as mental and physical disabilities which may not be surmounted regardless of effort.
Yes ... exactly 💯
watching these, I feel like I am getting a masters degree in "life".
I wonder if these recordings are a one-off or if other professors record their classes like this? Or just that this man is so popular (for obvious reasons) so his videos are all over YT?
The Law of Attraction is taken out of context very easily nowadays because people have a hard time of understanding things they cannot physically see. There is no doubt my mind that utilizing the law of attraction to the fullest is one of the most useful tactics humans can use to be successful.
what do you mean by it. for exemple, people that are in real need, struggling for the essential, what should they do? give up responding to the needsw of the world and focus on 'what they want' ?
Levi Mast
Most who fail think that by thinking alone; one can simply have an effect: This is incorrect:
After a while all thought requires actions: Those who use the LoA counter this with "thoughts are actions" which is not essentially true as that is not based in reality:
Yes, it certainly does not just evokes an idea that "it's enough to wish for something". First it encourages to act, then on a deeper level it's a call to hypothesize a life's events don't depend as much on "you" as you might think it does.

I have come to realize that it works based on intent; if that makes sense:
NORMALIZATION OF IGNORANCE I give zero support towards oprah and the fact that you made such assumptions about me is a huge issue with so many “woke” people. So how about you stop spending your time calling people stupid buddy.
I think the Cliff's notes version of this is that wishing won't make it so.
Like Bad Santa said "You wish in one hand, shit in the other, see which one fills up faster" 😅😆

True. But here’s how it actually works;
Know exactly what you want and be able to speak it. Remember, if you can’t describe it to a 3 year old you don’t know what it is.
Anyway, know what you want and actually say it in as simple and direct terms as possible. Then, say thank you while you use your 5 modes of sensory perception to imagine that you already possess it. An emotional feeling of gratitude is the catalyst for manifestation of materials and/or circumstances.
See the work of Neville Goddard for a very in depth analysis of the process.
all the problems of the world are solved when you train your mind in meditation,good diet and enough exercise, then work
👏👏👏👏 if only people listened to you...
speak for yourself.
Now if only that were true
Easier said than done.
That’s not true
I think the very last thing he said about the "theoretical integrity of your perceptual frame" at 10:01 was very important in terms of the problems males are having today. It's not that we dont have avenues to success, its that often times these avenues that have historically lead to success, and that we have been taught will also lead to our success, dont work. Once we thought we were on an upwards path and then all of the sudden that path becomes convoluted its hard to recover from that because everything we attempt in the future could theoretically just backfire.
As someone who had schizzofrenia and OCD, law atraction is a dangerous concept if misundetstood.
For real. A lot of things are dangerous concepts though
This is the first I’m seeing someone state this and I know exactly what you mean. Blessings to you.
Had? Schizophrenia doesn't just go away. But if I'm wrong or you were misdiagnosed, consider yourself lucky. I was diagnosed with schizo-affective disorder, only to get it taken away when another psychiatrist said that I "clearly" was musdiagnosed.
@@renakmans3521 explain yourself, please
spit Simply because people with these mental diseases really don’t have much control of their thoughts. So does that mean we automatically attract what our negative thoughts are? I say no, because this law of attraction thing is way over simplified for pop culture. Your thoughts are meaningless in the larger picture so don’t attribute a law to them. Think good thoughts because they make you compassionate towards yourself and others, that’s the gift...
Jordan. You have an exceptional skill in analysing things as well as then expressing and explaining them to the average Joe and Jane what a huge challenge it is to be able to take something complex, especially if it's something new, and then put it together in ways which others can at least grasp and understand something about it. You speak here of "constants". One of the drawbacks of teaching and preaching anything, is that you can become rather fixed and rigid and closed about what you're teaching and preaching. So certain constants and "truths" and beliefs become your ONLY ones. Or THE only ones. Take Male and Female, for example. Our current and very long standing constant teaches and preaches division, difference and separation. Behaviours and emotions and actions and even ways of thinking are taught and preached as male or female. As well as many other things, too. For example, anger or aggression are seen as "male" or compassion or gentleness are seen as "female" we describe men and women as Venus and Mars. We say we have a male and female hemisphere of our brains. A woman can be told she's too masculine and therefore not too attractive to a man A man can be told he's too feminine and therefore not too attractive to a woman. Right now, there are untold millions and millions of men and women twisting themselves inside out trying to figure out if they have too much of this or not
enough of that - but if they are less if this and more of that then all will be well in their relationships. And so they're constantly measuring themselves and their failures and successes, up against these "constants". So here's a new "truth" for you to consider...what IF you took away the current "truths" about it and the beliefs about all the divisions and separations and differences? What you then have is the "truth," that it's all simply ENERGY and these energies are UNIVERSAL.
Jordan Peterson is a genius!
I really like the contents of this video. However, it does not relate to or coincide with the title!?
"Law of attraction"? Wtf, he'd never talk about this esoteric bullshit. Stupid title.
The LoA is pure metaphysical pseudoscience as JBP indirectly explained in this video. The title is a bit confusing.
Peterson isn't referring to the "law of attraction". He's merely saying that we have a belief system which is a collection of abstractions that determines the way we interact with the world. This is far different from saying that if I'm 5'4", weigh 130, and run a nine-second forty, I can play in the NFL if that is a part of my belief system--which is what "the law of attraction" would suggest. It might mean I would chase that dream but not that it would manifest simply because it's part of my belief structure. The individual and his belief system do not operate independently from society. As an example, a prevailing social construct seems to be that you're not getting into Harvard with a 2.1 GPA in High School and a SAT or ACT score in the bottom quartile.
Yes that is what I understood from the video too.
Nothing to do with law of atraction😅
@@YFL.111 I'm not denying the importance of belief. If I want to be an astronaut I think it's essential that I believe I could be. If I believe it's the longest of long shots, perhaps even impossible, I won't do the things essential to work towards that goal. I shudder to think about the state of humanity if merely thinking did make it so. We'd all be speaking German now.
@@andredarin8966 yes I was not trying to discuss about the law of atraction. I was just saying that I see this man is talking about something diferent because the Law of Atraction is based in some esoteric beliefs is not just a way of thinking or motivation.
About the speaking german😂 no, that is not how the law of atraction works, you think it you have it, sometimes its even the oposite and anyway it doesnt affect others will or destiny. But I was just saying this man is more like a psicologist who talks about what you explained, being motivated , believing in you, but loa is another story and it requiers you to believe in some higher power, enegries, the soul and so many other things for it to be explained or make sense to somebody.
?@@YFL.111 If you are familiar with any of the "pioneers" of this movement going back to the late 19th century, they all warned that belief can be used for evil. Need proof? Consider Joseph Stalin. He visualized transforming the Soviet Union from a peasant society into an industrial and military superpower. However, he ruled by terror, and millions of his own citizens died during his brutal reign.
Alexander the Great imagined conquering Europe. He was incredibly successful but killed thousands of people to achieve his goals.
Action, with the exception of instinct, requires cognition, almost always in the form of words or mental imagery. I see very little difference in Osama Bin Laden imagining how he could strike a blow against America and employing "LOA". Once he had concretized his plans, the precise circumstances he needed to achieve them, began to coalesce. He found his sacrificial lambs and the means to train them for his purposes.
Hitler's beliefs were not fully realized because others had opposing beliefs. In the absence of that opposition, his ambitions to conquer the world could have been realized.
Churchill, FDR, and Stalin stood in his way.
We are seeing right before our eyes in the Ukraine how Putin's belief in restoring the Soviet Union to its former position has tilted the world on its axis.
It is a fact that for better or worse, the imagination and beliefs of one person can alter the destiny of a nation and even the planet.
Yogic principle: All gain through focus. All loss through fragmentation. Just look what sunlight does when focused through a magnifying glass.
Wow!
I might have had a mancrush on Peterson before, but if he keeps going he'll have me question my sexual preference!
Seriously tho, his capacity to distill meaning is astounding. The clarity with which he discusses those dynamics and insightsl in the last minute of this vid represent the fruits of years and years of personal growth.
Take heed, and listen :)
We love bigboi Peterson
9:03 the most fundamental one is the most fundamental one. 😁 ...Ribbing Dr JP
Sometimes great content. Other times he just dissects every statement until it becomes a distraction from the main point and I lose interest
I understand what you´re saying, but remember this is not a "UA-cam video" he made, it´s a snippet from a class lesson. It´s "almost" out of context here, because the title is partially misleading, precisely because "the law of attraction" is a simplified concept that became popular, and people going to a "law of attraction" video would expect more "in your face", or "straight to the point" assertions. But it was the video uploader who made the connection between that lecture snippet and the "law of attraction". It´s is not a "wrong title" per se, but it is more of "an argument" the uploader is using to back up his own assertion that "the law of attraction doesn't favor everyone".
Jordan’s hair looks blue

I dont get in which part he is explaining whom the law of attraction favors
He doesn´t. But what he is explaining is supportive of the argument that "the law of attraction doesn't favor everyone". Something which, honestly, we all already know (just like people know they can´t be super models or boxing heavyweight champions unless they were born genetically made up for this).
Jordan Peterson devotes a chapter on not lying in 12 Rules for life. Don't disrespect him. Change the title you sneaky bastard
by making clickbait titles you are indirectly saying that you believe his messages, and being is less than it is, and attracts a lesser attraction to us than it does, um hello we don't care about the topic its HIM we wanna hear what he says, this isn't an entertainment video, its an educated message and should have the correct title to correspond with the content so that we can choose well !!
Click bait title. Probably this channel shouldn't be rewarded for this scam.
Law of Attraction = self encouragement
Things have changed and times are changing those two Dylan songs might be an answer to many reasons things are so different socially
My Hippocampus is on the fritz.
Thanks, man! I was looking for the correct expression for this STATE of mind moreover than three months! And i have an MD in psychology))) Peterson is a killer, but in the most complimental way possible)). I wish they taught us like he does, at least one out of all the professors we had...
Peterson had done it again, idealisms ftw
True it doesn't work for most people especially my ex-husband his new wife and I.
They seem to be at the same place I'm at even if I'm out of state. And they give me the evil eye and I walk off so I think the law of attraction doesn't work for the three of us. Reasons being why the law of attraction doesn't work for the three of us. They need things their way but their egos are more important than ever working anything out. That is why, the law of attraction doesn't work between the three of us.
Rollo Tomassi, how do you respond to this?
It works everytime I'm not trying to apply it. Slow progress here.
At the four minute mark this speech seemed to go off the rails regarding laws of attraction.
The Universal Laws are Elite. Attraction. Whatever so a man thinks, so is he is what I think this is about.
Mtpimenta Ultimately, you lose your soul for meaningless shit. "Full house, empty soul, empty house, full soul". Pursue hard that enriches the soul.

How can sitting on the chair thats completely unnatural for the human being influence the way of thinking.
Your brains collect the information obout your body wellbeing through the nervous system.
You might had noticed that the way of thinking is completely different from the person who is running and who is sitting for three hours.
So your thoughts are changing on the fact that is based on what are you right now doing.
So can we make learning more effective by including the whole body in the process.
An example might be illustrated with understanding the situation when you had your own experience with falling down the stairs or just reading the article about global warming....
Sorry Jordan just thinking aloud clearing my thoughts
Peterson looks like sam the eagle here. JBP is aging like wine 😂
Money does that
As far as I can tell , wow!!! Wowwwwww!
You are placed exactly where you need to be to solve your problems!
Every problem in your life exists because of a deficit in yourself. Once you realise you are not deficient, the problem goes away.
The law of attraction works straight away, but it will kill you as much as it saves you - thats my experience! Everything in the universe is balanced.
Stop looking at life as a force against you. Your entire life happens for you.
I'm unsure how purpose works, but my own is to serve others. I don't understand new age focus on happiness, wealth, fame etc. Life is about helping others? You do what's best for you, so you can do what's best for everyone else.
It's delusional bullshit, presuming that reality is dynamic and made from the perceptors unconscious, therefore ultimately denying the existence of truth (just as quantum physics tries to).
This can be considered the first step down into schizophrenia.
There's several anecdotes if not the majority of people that never overcome those problems they are dealt.
Therefore those problems are too big or unsolvable for their current state.
If you propose a child in Africa without food just needs to visualize some turkey all you can eat menu, then you're clearly ignorant of the existence of realty.
Reality doesn't bend your will, it has its own laws of nature which will bend you (with force) if you don't comply to them.
4:05 "roughly speaking". One expression to dodge in an eloquent way the your left leaning political adversaries and not be called a racist by people who are lobster gendered.
I'm not entirely sure it was that, I think he was just saying that while we're fairly sexually differentiated, social interactions are not exclusively homosocial nor sexually differentiated, especially within the last century
Roughly speaking is Jordan's version of the journalistic "allegedly" 😂
This is thicc Jordan
And then the title is a clickbait.....
Looks kinda like fonzi ;)
Cause it's total bull. Just saved you ten or more minutes
Oh and you have all the answers right?
No.. It's just the way people perceive it that is bull. If you set your sights on single goal .. Say.. you want to learn a foreign language.. You will actually focus on that and if you are in earnest about learning that language you will study etc. If you assume that you can just say.." I want to be fluent in Portuguese .. So Cometh forth "Law of Attraction "and maketh this so.. Well, that's ridiculous. There are a lot of people who live their lives with zero focus and their lives clearly show that reality. They accomplish Zero.
@@calliecalista184 so why would you need a "law" to make it come true that you learn something new? Its fundamentally wrong to say loa is a "law" since it is not true that something always attracts a similar thing. In nature, physics, psychology etc. both "like attracts like" and "opposites attract" happen. Some of the time law of attraction works for people, because of the consequences of them believing in it. It doesn't mean it will always work and that the law isn't bs. But law of attraction has made up a way around this - if it didn't work, then it's because the mentality of your mind was somehow low vibration and wrong. So it shames and blames the person relying on it when it fails to deliver what is expected.
Lol what hes saying is loa doesn't really exist. It's your perception of reality and your reticular activation system that find the opportunities you are looking for. But it's not your perception of reality that's governing the laws of physics.
Paradigm needs to be changed...
If you judge a fish by claiming a tree you will find it stupid every time..

Law of attraction is instinctual, from natural selection. Take the peahen seeking the peacock with the most tail feathers. If her male progeny are the Alpha peacock, she will be enormously successful. Humans are no different, just that we have a dual reproductive strategy. Also, we seek personality types like ourselves as noted by the research by Dr. Helen Fisher.
Back in the days of: Jordan Peterson: brought to you by Coke Zero
I really rate JB, but I strongly disagree on this point, my experience leads me to the conclusion that people expect what they expect, good or bad. Society, at least in the west, is very constant, we expect today to be the same as yesterday.
Peterson is way fitter now...
Do you have hypoxia or blue hair? Cute.
Damn it - my partner has ruined Jordan for me - he says all he can hear is Kermit 😫
Would have been nice to have a complete video, not cut in the middle of an important argument. And of course the clickbait is just bluntly insolent.
The "law of attraction" is a framework which is only successful inside a cohesive and socially complex environment. Also, it cannot work if "what you want" is unattainable for reasons which are opaque to the actor.
In other words, the instant you encounter malevolence, or are ignorant about something crucial, you fail. Period. No matter how hard you try. In fact, at that point you are working against your own interests.
Much better is, as stated many times, to form a reasonable goal you are certain you can accomplish, attack that goal with open eyes and hard work, and as things come up you adapt to new information.. Changing your direction angst even basic goals to match the circumstances with which you are confronted.
Aka: clean your room, and aim up but low enough so you know you can win.
Haha guys you're going at it from the wrong angle.
The Law of Attraction does work but not as most people imagine or want it to. It is a psychological tool to make yourself pinpoint the direction that you want to go. If someone believes it's the universe talking, then that's not what it really is, that's psychosis. But if you're a sane person you can use it as a consciencous tool, if you are not consciencous about this, you'll just go insane 😂
It isn't magic or humbug, it's just a simple thing that you can use to get somewhere, see what you need to see to make sure you get to the goal you have set.
It has nothing to do with ginies, devils or worship.
Think of it like this.
You can't ask the "universe" to give you things, it doesn't work. But you can change your perception of the world to be able to see and take advantage of what you see that's in relation to your goals.
So.. This means that you simply visualize your objectives and goals, learn how to be open about how to obtain it. It requires work from your part, an open mind about that the world has unlimited possibilities to get to a certain point. This is the whole process of The Law of Attraction.
Also, you have to let go of the desire itself to get to the point where you actually are open enough to see the possibilities, it's not hard, it's a "catch22" situation and requires humility from your part and "surrendering" to a larger extent than most are capable of doing, to let go of wanting it, just flowing towards the target.
I know most of you won't understand this, but that's OK, that's why you fail, it's a psychological trick you play on yourself, knowingly, and that's how it works. By convincing yourself it really works, then it actually works, like mental health, you can't get well until you believe you can in the depths of your heart. .
@LastNightInSweden...Yes! This is what I do. I conceive, I believe, I receive but not without the constant effort of 'rejecting' most of that which doesn't 'speak to' my vision and being alert to what does...accepting that today is yesterday's vision made manifest and all the while I tweak at tomorrow's vision as I keep what works and release what doesn't. If that makes sense...
Right. In O'Henry's short story The Last Leaf there was a doctor helping out the depressed sick main heroine. He said something along the line of "if you have no desire to live, treatment loses 80% of its efficacy period".
It seems to me you could reduce it down to two points:
--Belief that the outcome you want can be attained is a precondition for attaining it
--Reinforcing the idea of the goal throughout your daily life funnels you towards it, so that you "fall" into achieving it in a sense
that's exactly how brother, thank you for the simplification, cheers!
Last Night In Sweden I really like this

you don't have to be intelligent to understand this
I love this info, it makes it bubble in my mind.
Wow this was a mental workout.
I woulda just said it doesn’t favour everyone because not everyone wants to put the work in to get what they want.
The law of attraction is just a compass; you have to take the action to actually get to the destination.
Ahh.. but to understand it from an academic perspective.. one needs to understand the belief system and it's entanglements.
This entire video flew over my head but if what he is saying is it doesn't work in everyones favour because not everyone is willing to put in the work to have the life they want then that makes sense.
But I’m retarded so I can’t be a ceo for example or a coach
The Law of Attraction assumes a galactic genie. If there is a law of attraction- the law of virtue, innovation and good old fashion hard work are much more effective.
Making a case for a ‘genie’ is a tough one, but making a case for a creator that stimulates the growth of our character is highly probable.
Gary Grant you are making a case for genie. He never said anything about a genie.
Matthew L , where is my case?
Gary Grant right above my initial comment
Matthew L Respectfully, I don’t see any case being made. I see myself dismantling one.
Gary Grant i think I misread initially.. I'm not following my previous train of thought. Pretty sure this was on the ass end of a UA-cam bender
I believe the law of attraction doesn't work for most people simply because they don't know that they can and should control their thoughts and aim their life toward their desires. In my experience the law of attraction definitely works. With that said - we also are not God and need to realize that our ability to create our life beginning in the mind is a gift but we will be held accountable for the life we create.
👍
He is strengthening the philosophy of law of attraction.
What I understand is that he is talking about how your belief system afects your life, but not talking about the law of atraction as an esoteric concept. So he is talking about something diferent.
Law of atraction states that you create an energy or a.conmection to the universe which somehow brings what you want into your life.
This is not what he is talking about
I think any implication you speak of lies in in a wide berth of inference

I want to know the context of how this discussion was brought about. Maybe some kid asked about it and Peterson said he would try to explain? It’s confusing but I’m not here for the information. I just need a comforting voice to help me sleep.
“Do not say little in many words, but a great deal in a few…….” Jordan’s lectures often neglect brevity, and I think it loses ‘would be’ Jordan Peterson fans, it’s unfortunate bc I love him
metaphysical BS

😊
The law of attraction doesnt (always) work bc it is based on greed; the assumption that you ARE not enough, that you need something, someone or some experience to feel better about yourself. It all starts with being a kid, when a kid gets a toy.. the kid feels happy.. When the toy is broken, the kid feels broken. Everyone who wants something, thinks they miss something.. and what you are missing.. you will never really touch.I believe that when you enjoy existence, accept things and people as they are, the universe or god or whatever you want to call it, will present the things you enjoy.. The opposite of the law of attraction is the universal law of abundance.. and abundance is everywhere (even when it doesnt seem like it).
".I believe that when you enjoy existence, accept things and people as they are, the universe or god or whatever you want to call it, will present the things you enjoy.." This statement IS the Law of Attraction (LOA) at work. Contrary to popular belief, LOA is not asking for something and just getting it. LOA is believing and acting as though you already have it. When you do that you get more of what you believe you already have. If you are a grateful, generous person- you get more to be grateful for and more opportunities to be generous. If you believe you are a victim of something and are angry about that- you get more things perpetrated against you and more things to be angry about. LOA is about lining up your beliefs (these are most of the time unconscience beliefs) with what you want more of without the fear of not having it.
Its not acting as if... You already have everything, because everything already exists :). The only way is to let go of mental labels and thought patterns, even about the smallest things. For example when you look at a tree.. dont see a tree, see the presence of it being there. And to do that, you have to stop thinking about what you are looking at.. and only then you will see the truth.. Its the exact middle point of staring and focus.. Its like a meditative state during your day2day activities, and almost like an ongoing and never ending dejavu moment ;) Everything around you falls into place!! Now thats what i call Abundance.
Like what both of you have said.
But law of attraction is still BS...so...
"It's not acting as if..." You are totally correct. The clients I work with sometimes need to "pretend" until it becomes real for them. Hurt beings have a difficult time with trust. Changing loyalties from "everything turns out wrong" to "I have everything I need" is a big step for those entrenched in a negative mindset. I personally live in the way you describe and I thank you for articulating it so well. :)
Youre welcome :)
you have to feel good all the time and match the frequency of what you want.This means physical action. you can't get strong physical body if you don't do anything. although visualizing yourself strong makes you more likely to put in effort to get what you want and your subconscious knows what you want then and attracts circumstances that match the vibration. but u still need to be right vibration. meditation and good diet will make it easier to attract what you want.
Brilliant
Hell naw, man. This was not the right viewing for an early morning wake-and-bake lol
this Canada Boy is a master of saying a lot of stuff very fast before you can figure out its all BS just thrown at a fast rate. this guy never should have been given a college degree.

Hahahaha yeah okay, just because you don’t understand one thing someone is saying doesn’t mean they’re not smart. That’s pretty close minded bud
"Your concepts can't be only based on beliefs, they're grounded in facts and experience. An action is often informed by a desire. Failure is intimidating - it could mean your whole belief, cause to effect system is flawed somewhere."
Bernard Scheidle easy does it you troglodyte
+james kile what if he understood completely from every perspective the things mentioned in the video, would that mean he is actually smart and they are dumb?
Do you need some book learnin boy??
