    “Unless you’re not really that ambitious... which is not necessarily a bad thing.”
    That’s how I feel. I don’t want a high powered job and a big house or fancy car. I want to be healthy, live in a safe clean house, have a car that’s reliable, have good relationships with my family. I want to find contentment and purpose in my work. If it brings in a lot of money, I have more to give. But status and wealth doesn’t equate to happiness.

      mishel mak money can not make someone less lonely, only friends and family can do that. If your money bought you friends, you’ll never know if they love you for you or if they love you for your money.
      All the things money can buy are just distractions. Sometimes they’re really fun distractions. But material things is not what life is about. It’s about love and connections. That’s why Christmas is more exciting as a parent than as a kid; because you get more joy in giving than receiving.

      I know money cant buy friends, or love etc.... but it can buy a dog.
      It also pays your bills, buys food, keeps the car running.
      In today's world you need money to be comfortable unless you're cool with being homeless and smelly.
      Yes that's unfortunate. We can't just roam about like free spirits without a care. Money buys security which reduces stress.... and yeah right about Christmas presents. I dont like the holidays or birthdays because they always fall on days when money is short. Thankfully my kids aren't materialistic little shits. They DO appreciate a warm home, full bellies, indoor plumbing etc. But all that takes $$$$

    • @lucygoosie7726
      @lucygoosie7726 4 роки тому +114

      Emily Pollifax I specifically stated that I didn’t want to have a ton of money, but enough to live comfortably and have enough food, running car etc. You don’t have to be a millionaire to live comfortably.
      And as someone who is extremely allergic to dogs, I can’t relate. But I’m thinking like an average income where you can still do some fun stuff, but not the kind where you own 5 cars and need a maid.
      I have been in a bad situation before where my husband lost his job right after we moved, so we had just spent a lot on renovations, and we went for almost a year of not knowing if we’d be able to pay the mortgage. We just squeaked by, but it was one of the most stressful times of my life. I really feel for people who lose their house.

It's Easy to make a convincing MTF trans, a man looking female, you just need to start the transitioning early enough, and i think J.Bieber was born a Woman, he looks petit, small feet, hands, always photoshopped, small dude in big clothes, he shoulders are narrow and his hips are broad, and he sounds like a lespian speaking. Why would peterson be against pronouns for the trans people if he secretly is one, i dont think he is. I dont feel that J.P is doing harm, he obviously wants people to think and reflect!

Many people achieve their goals _without_ being industrious, particularly those whose goals are modest or who are gifted in ways that make things relatively easy (brains, looks, talent, social position). To me it seems a formulation which was thought out very loosely.

A fellow worder always kept quiet and did pretty much everything they asked, he has been promoted and received many extra opportunities. I was never angry at him, but I was definitely jealous to some degree. Now I am somewhat self employed, I earn a fraction of what I did when I was working there, and I see now that even if I had all those opportunities I dont think I would be happy anyway, I always wanted to be free and not have someone else dictate my life.

    I liked his point about opportunities not opening up for low-conscientiousness people, and them not being aware of it.

"What a bunch of snobbish a-holes" was my thought then, but it actually does seem that being conscientious opens doors in the most unexpected of ways.
    Being conscientious is like increasing the expected value (EV) of living. You might not get what you want immediately, or even at all, but you greatly swing the odds in your favor. And given the (hidden?) uncertainties in this life, that's perhaps all you can really do.

    I think the intriguing part about Personality Disorders is the whole idea that they are essentially impossible to self diagnose. Symptoms tend to overlap, and your perception of yourself will contain a certain bias. I'll admit that i have looked at some of the symptoms of various Personality Disorders and thought: "I have this and that."
    But it's also very easy to rationalize things and say: "Well, it's probably not that bad. I'm exaggerating." And rationalizing is just something we do as human beings. It's part of that bias of how you perceive yourself. How can you yourself identify what's abnormal behavior when that behavior is normal to you?
    Even when personalities develop into extremely abnormal behavior. I think our perception of what's normal will also gradually change accordingly. Values change, ethics and morals change, interests and fascinations change. And eventually you yourself will start to see these new changes as normal. What's normal is going to be subjective.

We need to understand how to perceive ourselves honestly. An engineer may say that a relationship with someone like you (whatever that is), is a nightmare. That is a challenge for all, to maintain an evolving arrangement, learning and adaptation with others.

      People with npd and autism often get confused with one another. Autistic people miss certain social cues but have the capacity to feel terrible if someone lets them know they ve hurt someone. The person with npd feigns empathy to look respectable, get their way and gaet ahead. The narcissistic male adult will abuse his wife and scapegoat child privately seriously enough to cause them to be mentally and or emotionally symptomatic but look supportive all the way in front of the so called professional who for the above reasons should have the capacity to help the abused individual.

      because you can’t actually have one. Autism is a communication disorder. It is narcissism in its ultimate form. Without empathy, there is no exchange, no intimacy or understanding. You have to have intimate, not necessarily sexual, empathetic relationships or you will starve emotionally and get sick. Turn outside to others capable of empathy.

    Opportunities can be denied in a social agreement reached by secret prejudicial consensus. The reasoning for this can be as simple as your birthday, or your parentage, or ethnicity, or the color of your eyes. However, opportunities are often denied out of jealousy to steal the unique material because the victim has not been picked by the approved group and there are no penalties for the group because the group is self administrative.

I have probably seen people pull this stunt a dozen times. New guy shows up. Shows promise. So all the employees start gossiping. Or turn their heads or backs to them new one. Some will even interrupt conversations and turn around and walk away mid conversation. Anything they can do to stress or destabilize the new person. And then they will go to HR. And management. And start making slanderous accusations. And boom. The status quo is maintained. And the new guy is gone. And they cross their fingers and hope the next will be more agreeable to the clique.

      Toxic environments like that exist everywhere, but I'd say Peterson's point still remains valid
      I've been in similar situations before and, while many of my colleagues would have that toxic response to my efforts, I would quickly gain the trust of my direct superiors - through work, no politics or boot-licking. It is good to have the approval of your peers, but in this case, they aren't really the ones who have to notice you and who could open the doors for you.
      Being introverted and not too high on agreeableness and neuroticism, I would simply distance myself from the toxic people and stick with the ones who weren't like that. We established our own circle of mutual cooperation and appreciation and moved on.
      Ironically, the ones who tried to talk us down would look for us for support when they needed later.

All kinds of doors started to open for me to engage in satisfying engineering projects beyond my wildest dreams and I've had no formal schooling. I self educated just in time for much of it and often just seemed to have a natural knack for a lot of it. A lot of the people around me had much higher levels of education than I did, but did not have these opportunities and I found that they were most often the kinds of people that focused more on why they 'couldn't' perform the task. It just seemed logical to me that management is looking for people to say, 'no problem, I'll get it done', than having to deal with people who either whine about how hard it is to do things, state things can't be done, and have to have their hands held all the time.

    JP says in an organization, doors open for hard working diligent people who get things done. Absolutely true, the best advice for getting ahead at work I ever heard. Do the work. Be competent. And you will succeed. Its like a law of the universe.

      My career was pretty interesting, no college. I started in heavy construction over 35 years ago as a laborer. With a shovel. I gave my bosses all I had and learned all I could. I moved up. I ended my career as the manager of the construction estimating department, a very good job. I knew the company president and all the senior VPs. When you do your best, people notice, even if you start with a shovel.

      @@andrewheffel928 thank you for your encouragement. I had a bad boss, but the other department heads noticed me and wanted to transfer me over. I worked for state of Calif transportation, and we were in a "hard hiring freeze", means no one can transfer. I lost my job due to sabotage, no one believed bc this happened before.
      I lost hope. But what you wrote reminded me that I did earn a good reputation. Thank you. And merry christmas.

      @@dogie1070 Sorry to hear that. I had a friend went to work at Cal Trans. He didn't like it. He said you have to pace yourself to not make the others look bad, and advancement came slowly by seniority. He eventually quit and went to work for a private company. My break came at age 32, when I got that job in heavy construction. I moved up slowly because I didnt know a lot, but at least I was treated well. A lot of places play favorites and politics, and union companies have their own ways. I was lucky to work my way up at a place that treated people fairly. I hope you find a place to work that treats you well. Merry Christmas to you, and may God bless you in your life. Never give up.

    I think he is more so describing the predictors of having narcissistic personality disorder (and maybe other cluster B personality disorders) than the predictors of all personality disorders. For example, personality disorders like DPD and AvPD would more likely be associated with high agreeableness
