  • Jordan Peterson's personality test is based on the Big 5 scientific model for personality. It consists of 100 questions to be answered honestly and it generates a very detailed report about one's personality traits. I took the test and you won't believe the results...

    You are open; honest; articulate; personable; talented; unique and I’m so happy I have found you on CZcams. I LOVE your spiritual/ religious covers and hopefully there will be more. I am a 76 year old woman who has been a Christian since I was 10 years old. I find you very intriguing. God bless you as you move forward in your life……. ❤️

      @@kaye_dee_did Yes! I was surprised by that, too, since he's done religious covers so beautifully. Today, I was listening to a sermon by Jack Hibbs and he was saying that if he is at a movie and they say "Jesus" or "Jesus Christ" in vain, he follows up with "Is Lord!" out loud. Crack me up. I was doing a task while listening to this video and when he said, "Jesus Christ," I paused, then said, "Is Lord." I'm going to start doing that!

      ​@@nadogrl that's true. It took me about a year after being saved to stop cussing and another year to remember not to say OMG. I have to say something, though. I usually replace it will Holy cow or Criminey. My 11 year old son thinks Criminey is a cuss word.

    You have a new fan. First saw your rendition of Amazing Grace and subscribed. As you are hearing loud and clear, we love your voice. I am the exact opposite of you. I have been a Christian all of my life and considered being a nun, too polite. As I shared your video I wrote sometimes it takes a man like you to make us see. God is using you. We could tell you felt that song. It was so powerful and emotional.

      I agree@carolynharwood. I was raised full on Christian, with a father AND grandfather preaching in this church. It was my world as I knew, until my dad died when I was 11 years old. Then I went off kilter. This music has always been close to my heart, and I full on weeped when I heard this version of Amazing Grace!!! I had listened to about 15 of Dan’s songs, without subscribing to his channel, until Amazing Grace!❣️❤️🙏🏼😘‼️

    The one thing I relate the most to is the sentence: "They are just feelings". Feelings only matter as much as you let them. Once aware of this, you can prioritize them. Like me listening to the Amazing Grace cover; I just let the feelings do their thing. Then I repeat. When my son of 19 months is being an asshole for hours on end, I suppress my feelings, because I know nothing good will ever come out of the frustration and anger I feel, and they cannot be allowed to have ANY hand in my decisions, or my son would be injured and I would be in prison. Positive and negative emotions, they will pass eventually, and how you handle them is paramount. Let the good ones loose, and beat down the bad ones. As mentioned in the video, you CAN train yourself to do this, although only negative and uncomfortable emotions were mentioned. You can do positive ones too. I do it by repetition and recollection, but I'm sure there are more ways.

      I have learned happiness is a feeling that comes and goes depending on your circumstances. Now JOY is a solid decision you choose no matter of your circumstances. I also fight cancer and let that take my JOY away until I realized what am I doing to myself. Why should I let sadness dominate me. I made a choice no matter what happens in my life I’m going to choose JOY. yes I have down days but so much easier to pull out of that. My purpose is to spread that JOY which comes with my relationship that comes of Jesus Christ. ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏😃😄😁

These personality videos are very interesting and I have enjoyed several, like your fight with the payment company, answering wierd questions and this one. I have also noticed you respond to reactors regularly and that is really cool. The man behind the voice is truly as impressive as the voice behind the microphone!

    I am assertive and been nominated as the leader in my class when graduated from that in my forties. I had not seen myself as a leader, but then realized actually that I am. I am quick to make decisions. I am quick to act, and I do so with authority and taking charge especially in a crisis moment. By that I mean someone having a heart attack a seizure being a burn victim, and I will jump into action, take charge rendered and get further assistance while barking out orders. I am also very curious now about this personality test. I am in my late 60s now. I just discovered you on CZcams a few days ago and I have gone down the rabbit hole on CZcams of listening to your music. I have shared your music with quite a few people in the last few days. I am a huge fan and so appreciate the music, the videos and right now listening to you, express your journey wishing you all success and happiness bravo.Thank you for sharing your diagnostics. I

    Your agreeableness score is common among successful artists. You are very strongly goal oriented. You are self employed. These two things are very common and explain that drive. You are fairly enthusiastic or you wouldn’t be attempting to be a rock star. You still enjoy performing from home. You are very assertive or you would not be willing to put yourself out there. You also would not be willing to change or drive yourself. You are constantly trying to improve yourself and increase your abilities. I find this one of the things to respect about you the most. You have trained yourself to become conscientious. It’s something to be proud of. Your family should be proud of you too. As a mom, I’m proud of my boys. I’m so happy for you. Honestly you have inspired me to do a few things myself. The rule thing correlates exactly like you think. My youngest is the same. My husband does that too. They are fine setting their own rules. They are not ok following rules just because. What you did, how you identified faults and deliberately set out to eradicate faults, make you something to respect and someone to admire. Congratulations on your hard work.

    Hey Dan, you're a cool guy who knows what he wants and where he wants to go in life. Your dad would be very, very proud of you. Believe me....somewhere he is watching over you.
    Keep up the good work.... always moving forward.
    I ❤ your voice and thank you for giving and still giving me strength along the way. Thank you.🤘🏻
    I think I will take the test sometime. I am excited about the results but also a little scared.

    Man when you were talking about orderliness and politeness (around 17:35), it reminded me of an experience I recently had.
    In my country, New Zealand, we have a youth development course run by the New Zealand Defense Force and the Ministry of Social Development. It's a six week long course that aims to get people between the ages of 18 - 24 (although there are certain exceptions for people who are 17 or 25) ready for employment with a wide variety of employment related skills such as writing CV's and cover letters, job interview skills, and so forth, all while getting a taste of the military lifestyle (minus the weapons and combat training, which makes a lot of sense when you consider that a lot of the trainees come from backgrounds where there is a lot of drugs, violence, and organized crime). I went on the course at first to see if I could get my foot in the door for the Royal New Zealand Navy, since I'd been medically declined due to an old injury that still troubles me occasionally. I had to shift my perspective on this about halfway through the course when the doctor told me that I needed to get my injury revisited and fixed properly before the Navy would even look at my application again.
    Anyway, on to the important part of the annecdote.
    In my Platoon, we had a junior NCO - a Leading Marine Technician (Propulsion) - who had the catch phrase 'don't run your own routine.'
    I swear, the whole lot of us twenty eight trainees from 1 Platoon who graduated were absolutely sick of hearing 'don't run your own routine.'
    We heard in during drill. We heard it during CT (Corrective Training, supposedly not a punishment, but it sure as hell felt like it!). We heard it when we were being chewed out for missing timings and being late. We heard it A LOT!
    Running your own routine is being non-compliant with higher authority, preferring to do things your way no matter the consequences.
    you really do seem to run your own routine, Dan. Not that that's a bad thing in your context.
    The other thing I remember vividly was something my Platoon Commander - a Chief Petty Officer who started his career as a medic before changing trades to become a PTI - said as he was ripping strips off me for not making my bed in time.
    he said to me, "Van Steel, you want to be a Weapon Engineer Officer in the Navy, right?"
    "Yes, Staff." I answered as I ran around like a headless chicken, trying to get the hospital corners on my pit just right.
    "Weapon Engineer Officers have one of the most important roles in the Navy. During combat or combat training exercises, the Weapon Engineer Officer takes command of the ship. They are responsible for the safety of everyone on board." Chief explained, continuing to chew me out for not meeting the standard.
    "Do you know what an officer does, Van Steel?" Chief asks.
    "He meets the standard, Staff!" I answer.
    "He SETS the standard." Chief corrected.
    It was that moment that became the biggest kick up the arse I've ever had in my life. How could I be expected to do well in my dream job - a job with an absolutely monumental amount of responsibility - where I have to be reliable enough to set the standard, when I couldn't even meet the standard expected of me during a watered down version of military life?
    You seem to absolutely loathe doing what other people tell you to. you'd be what the staff at the Limited Service Volunteer course would call 'non-compliant' at times. You'd definitely get CT a lot for running your own routine.
    However, you're extremely conscientious and assertive, and it makes me wonder what you (as you are now) would be like as a commissioned officer, setting the standard rather than meeting someone else's. The Brazilian Army lost something valuable when they let you go after your compulsory service, Dan.
    Their loss, our gain.
    To anyone who's read this far,
    1) cheers, mate. you're a bloody legend!
    2) wtf, man! go watch more of Dan's videos!

    My heart goes out to you man. I went through a similar experience when I lost my dad. It was a week and half before I was to play my last show with my band and I was start up college. After that I just fell right into a slump and wound up working a terrible job I hated just to pay bills. It was around that time I started getting into people like Dr Peterson and I even saw him live with Dave Rubin and Candace Owens a few years ago when he was talking about 12 Rules for life. It would still be about another year until I started getting better but I eventually quit that job, got a better one, met a great girl, and I’m in a much better place now. Thank you so much for sharing and you’re not alone out there man!

    I’m a HUGE Jorden Peterson fan and am glad that you are. I fell in love with your rendition of Amazing Grace and your overall talent. It’s encouraging that you were able to actually change some of your personality characteristics through discipline. Your empathy seems low, almost psychopathic, but what matters is what you do more than what you feel or don’t feel. I do, however, have the highest respect of your amazing talent and discipline and wish you success and happiness.

      Could he be on the autism spectrum perhaps with his lower empathy? I’ve seen this often with musicians and very talented people. Our grandson is on the spectrum, and he’s low empathy for others ( with lots of empathy for himself) but he’s also talented.

    Peterson is a gem for insight in how to honestly evaluate strength and weaknesses of where you are in your growth potential. Congratulations on taking steps to modify your traits to a more successful mind set. Rest assured that your father would be proud of the determined force for your goals you have become. After all you have reach a fandom of people who have never enjoyed metal performances until you came along. You have humanized what has always sounded to me like angry screaming to meaningful, powerful, stories in song. The power to take strong emotional stories to the heart of listeners. Bravo Dan, bravo.

    Oh please, Dan, don’t be sad, you’ve made it in the eyes of those that matter, your fans, and you have loads of them, but hearing you say you are or were so sad brought tears to my eyes because you deserve better and you’ll get better, if that’s possible, but hold your head up high, stick your chest out and look in your mirror and say out loud I AM GOOD AND I AM GOING TO MAKE IT AND MAKE IT BIG. Do an IQ Test, I bet you’ll score quite high, because you seem to be quite intelligent, after all you speak goodness knows how many languages.

    You may wish to try the book Personality Plus by Florence Littauer, which also has a personality test in it. I found it to be more accurate and far less negative in tone when discussing personality weaknesses as well as tips for improvement. It also helped me deal with other people by simply noticing that what's in that person that's driving me crazy is simply a part of their personality and not that person going out of their way to be difficult.

    Back again: Dan, I really like that you showed that these tests are not infallible and they are subject to a lot of learning and habit change and immediate circumstance. Any test is just a snapshot and these also have questions on them that have a lot of surface validity so that a persons conscious/defended/coping mind can actually cheat on them if they’re not careful.

    We always have a choice no matter how hard it is, we can keep fighting or surrender.
    Of course I'm still a mess lol, and neither i or my older brother have a reliable source of income and hurts that he didn't see us accomplishing life, but I'm doing my best to finish my career and looking for job.
    I recently discovered you, loving your content and giving me strength.

    Dan thanks for sharing yourself in all the ways that you do. So many truths here. This video came as a great inspiration at the right time, even though it is two years old. Keep flying high and straight with your amazing discipline and perceptions, a shining example for all. Another life lesson learned, be careful for what you ask for. You are on the trajectory for greatness shared with the inspirations of Eric Adams, Jon Bon Jovi, Steven Tyler, Pavarotti...etc and further. You're proof 'where much is given, much is asked'. May love and protection always be yours and with you.
