- You don't want to do so much work that the amount of work could interfere with the amount of work that you could still do.
In the Orwellian tale Animal Farm, Boxer learns this lesson throughout the book. Always trying to take on more than he should, never able to rest and reset.
A classic book for all ages, Animal Farm, can be found on Dr. Peterson's recommended reading list and additionally, found here: amzn.to/2zgfNl8 should you choose to use this link, you will be directly supporting this channel and additional content. We thank you for your continued support.

I disregarded rest as a workaholic. I am now 40yo with chronic pain diaease, chronic fatigue, i cant walk or stand up anymore. Take your rest seriously. Sleep is for the strong!
Jordan Peterson, a Endless Fountain of Logic, Wisdom, and Knowledge. The World IS a Better Place for You Being Here.
You make it sounds like he is a god or something 😅
Idolizing people is very dangerous and your idol wouldn't approve of it.
@@erikpoephoofd billy idol's arguably waay loftier a thinker, and spellor, for instance, anyways~
@@tinfoilhatter I don't understand what you mean? In comparison to whom?
But... his wisdom is not from himself... interesting though that he talks like it is and that people think it is.
Me: *A rest-aholic and should know the importance of work*
I relate hard.
Same
HEYY தமிழ்!
Exactly. I used to be a workaholic due to bullying and now I’m a restaholic due to bullying.
@@ytb8361 don't let other's pave the way for your life. Take control and do what you want and have a passion for.
This video is basically for You Dr. Peterson.
Even you need a break and take care of yourself. The Future needs you. 💞💞
More Power to you sir 😉
Yup!
I’m so tired of doing nothing that at the end of the day I indulge in some much-needed rest.
hey man, that's not you, yo! i mean, impossible! right? but hey, man! how would i know? what's the difference , if this was you, or if this was someone else, i may or may not be talkin' to? [hey now! how'd you do that! yer name, just got spelt all funny! i mean like just now! impressive! dang, so i was right! i'd call that a good call, haha! wow, absurdo! respecto!!]
You sound like Henry Dean, the great sage and eminent junkie.
@@tinfoilhatter It's him.
@@stza16 who's what! aw, yer just sayin' that!!
@@timangar9771 I'm pleased to find a Dark Tower reference here.
God bless you, Jordan Peterson. You are truly a blessing to those of us in need. Think of you often and hope you are well. ❤
that's really him? like, he might really read this, or that? no way, jose! okay, well! i should say, just in case, yes! bless him, and all his audience!
I feel guilty when I don't check off everything from my list at the end of the day. It's very difficult for me to allow myself to rest if I still have things to do because I'll feel extremely guilty. But I'll take your advice because this tends to leave me exhausted having to drag myself to it. this video was timely♥️
Overconscientious? :)
@@triplestartriple Thanks for the tip on Why We Sleep. After reading the reviews, I'm downloading the audiobook now... at 1 a.m....
I can relate, although for me it’s anxiousness and not guilt. Looking into what’s going on for me, it’s the feeling of being inadequate and therefore an imposter, that drives me to tick those tasks off, but also take on more at the exact same time. An impossible cycle, as relaxation feels unproductive, but is in reality, one of the most productive things. Thought it might be helpful to someone if I were to share this…
For you scenario, can I suggest relaxation or 6 hrs off (as an example) makes your list and becomes the #1 priority, so success is reframed? Best of luck with it and all you do.
Cheers!
Jordan has changed my life. Such a simple and overused phrase that seemingly holds no meaning yet unfolds onto the world in ways which can’t be fully measured!
My dad was a workaholic, though he would take us as kids to a little piece of land he owned on his days off, he would simply take our quad off the truck and work on his little ranch. Although I am grateful that nothing absolutely nothing was ever missing from our home. I wish my dad would have simply relaxed a bit and chatted with us, played soccer with us or would spend time interested in mine and brothers hobbies.
Jordan Peterson, an incredible man to engage in the search of many inspired answers for the
Search of human knowledge, and wisdom. There should be more like him!
Jordan you’ve changed my life and continue to help me with your words everyday! And I’m NO MAN ! Extremely admire all thank you for all you do! God bless you and keep you strong! We need this message long iver due but now mankind can’t say “ no one told me” !!! 🙏🏽✨
I really hope Jordan and his family are well. I would love to meet him one day. Sad to not see him much anymore
Me, too
Thanks for making the world a better place, Prof Peterson
I LOVE THAT you've changed your views on God. Accepted him into your heart ❤. Jordon it is and has made you and your work so much more fulfilling. God bless you and your family. From one workaholic to another until you finally receive the holy spirit THEN that's when it all changes for the better! Praise the Lord. Remember man made the wrist watch for control. Time is an illusion. We're on his time not ours. Embracing knowledge is great but embracing the wisdom that comes with years of experience is completely different and wonderful in so many godly ways. A shame that society today is so godless.
I had an Uber driver from Ethiopia once who was listening to Jordan Peterson in his vehicle. We got to talking about the controversy surrounding Jordan Peterson in North America.
The guy didn't understand why there was controversy.
"For what? What did he say that is bad?"
His eventual assessment was that a lot of people are babies who are fearful of anybody who preaches responsibility. Pretty spot on
Momentum makes it easier and more comfortable to keep on working. When you stop momentum is lost and you have to get back into the work/study groove. Students will notice this at the start of every academic year. You just have to learn to look after yourself in your daily routine.
Quote of the video at 2:11 , about one telltale quality of morality is it's ability to repeat something. Yes!! Exactly! That is why the traditional mode of life is good because that mode produces children that are also good and capable.
Professor, Dr. Jordan Peterson......Thank You !
Thrilled to have you back
dang, man! yer a difficult man to track down! respecto! i was gonna ask ya, if i ever got the chance, about a 'hurricane-that's-abandon'd' does that ring a bell? or was it just some literary expression or, y'know , a metaphor, maybe, and if so, like, what for!
Ik id never stand toe to toe in a debate with Dr. Peterson. Ik eventually I will burn out and be forced to chose. But for 2 months I've worked 2 jobs, 16hr days. I have my weekends off. And I feel like an absolute monster. Its also two jobs that I enjoy (although very physically demanding jobs).
China, Korea, and Japan need this the most.
Philippines as well
Jordan Peterson thanks a lot again for your words wisdom he gave me I can see my life changing each and everyday my company got sponsorship I am studying again my life is coming back together I can see light ...Thanks a lot God bless you
Absolutely joyful and powerful to listening for this great message thankyou be safe great one Dr.peterson 🙏🥰
Jordan Peterson God bless you for your work with people. I can’t get enough of your speeches, you are truly a beautiful person. ❤️
a man with no direction, is an exhausted man :)
CZcams recommended this video to me when I finally overcame the 8h procrastination by watching “why and how to improve yourself right now---Jordan Pearson”.
Ah his voice is so calming. Like that of a fatherly figure.
I'd say the biblical message is not 'pragmatically you have to pace yourself', but rather 'God wants you to enjoy your life beyond what pleasure you find in labor' because 'you don't need to live in *excessive* fear that you will starve, because God fundamentally cares about the welfare of his creation'. 'Be diligent, and then take some time off to appreciate what has been given to you.'
Me watching this at 2 am while taking a break from a lab... lol
I just knew him a week ago and tank god for that guy to exist
Cheers from Brazil
Thank you so much
This algorithm is in my way in between me and the good
Here's the thing Dr. Peterson. I think why workaholics cannot stop working is either because they are afraid (you snooze, you loose mindset) or they are running away from something...
Agree
Yes, in some cases, definitely!
You cant lose a mindset lmao
Thank you 🙏
Thank you
One if the tenets of the Agile project management mindset, is that we embrace the rule that the team maintain a 'sustainable pace'.
Thank you so much for this
I need to bring balance to my life
If Jordan P and Dr. Steven Greer got together can you imagine the infinit advances in human conscious and intellect that could be taught to the masses willing to listen .
Here we are wondering "Why can't I have a teacher like that?" You see my dear student is that you yourself have the potential to become that teacher and teach yourself something new a day.
This man will never be conquered
I used to be a workaholic due to bullying and now I’m a restaholic due to bullying.
nicely timed upload
Thank you cause I needed this affirmation of my own assumptions rn it’s great being able to grab so much and retain and grow and go go go go go but yea my mind does need rest just as my body does just slowing down for a moment doesn’t mean I’m going to become lazy again I can just use my own forward motion to let it carry itself so I can recover sounds good
Please come back Dr. Peterson.
Who wants to know who wants to stand next to each other in the great best goodness
You are our Hero
God Jesus Christ bless Jordan Peteron as well as everybody reading this
Amen
God bless thd Children....
Thank You for Your lecture sir. :)
Greetings good sir. I hope you are well.
I have always been accused of working too much. They tend to not see the time I get alone. So in a way I understand their perspective.
So many barriers...try ..,💜
Goodness
Right place
Balance.
Struggling for good with good not bad
I did a test on my personality and I only have 44% conscientiousness....
Im jealous of hard working people and how awesome they work
It's a curse, I'm in the 90% in conscientiousness. Constantly wired to work on something isn't exactly fun. Nobody likes to be around you.
Read God’s Word and then listen to Dr. JP and you’ll get a glimpse of God’s wonder and amazement.
GOD WINS !
It's not better it's simply justifies the pain
So true
Love this man so much :)
Sunday, the day of rest.
Funny this video just came up, I just started a job doing 12hr 7 days a week. It only lasts a month-6 weeks.
Too much of anything is a bad thing. Doesn't matter what it is. I can't think of one thing I have had too much of and had it end well. Love,drugs, exercise,power,fun,so many things can create a problem in your life from too much.
Open
People didn't come up with this Jordan, God did. Yahweh reigns in the heavens.
I think Henry Ford really did a great job in "inventing" the 40 hour week!😜

Many people would be under the poverty line if they restricted themselves to 40 hours per week.
Some people don't have much else going on, live a lonewolf lifestyle with few to none friends, no family, maybe some hobby if any at all. The reasons can be many, even huge debts.
Idle free time can become filled with tons of questioning about meaning, for people addicted to productive work and goals.
40 hours a week is good for me. 😊
The Sabbath is the *SEVENTH DAY.*
That's _SATURDAY_
Barriers to good fight fight
There's only so much patience and there's only so many berries and away and who was
On Saturday I rest .
Why ?
Initially because I experience God (not fully because I am very imperfect) and I wanted to Honor The Creator by following His example .
But I found much to my surprise that setting a day aside when I refuse to work for any reason gives me a psychological regeneration that allows my body to actually rest without being badgered by guilt because I am not working !
This in turn raises my awareness of the value of the work I have achieved for the week and also the beauty of all of creation INCLUDING the awesome beauty and potential of my fellow human beings .
As a longer after affect I have also noted my efficiency and ingenuity has been rising at an expedient rate much higher than if I worked seven days a week .
Don't get so caught up in creating that you forget to appreciate the creation .
Have an amazing Life .

not just rest, but don’t fight a battle you can’t win.
Youll never know if you cant win it if you dont try ;)
Jordan...I’d like to hear your thoughts on Biblical Cosmology/Creation, and specifically where you are at mentally on the firmament.
The text of Genisus 1 22 has been subjected to tranlation an translterational variances. Read Greek to English transcriptions ...
i have watched many of you're videos and my name is jan gabriel van der merwe and would only ask if i may one day join in you're classroom and maybe meet you in person and thank you for all you have done
People knew this since day one when they been created 😁
iv have not had a day off in a month and a half straight. Except for one day where I was out at doctors all day. The tie rod broke in my car yesterday causing a spinout and multiple car accident. still got to work lol. I might have a problem!
To good!!!
So if that’s the case we worship on the wrong day so we’re going to get got it asked her to do with Bible so John Peterson please explain if you don’t mind
It's funny because there is a saying in my dialect that says something like "even god rested"
Work and workerholics aside… at another level Is the numbers associated with the notion of resting on the 7th.
The 7th being a point of jubilee and a celebration. But a celebration of what exactly?
6/7= 0.85, a fraction as close as can be derived from a base of 7.
7/6, it’s inversion, is 1.16. As on Earth and it is in heaven… for this we must seek guidance from the wisest of all prophets, Ezekiel.

Hi Dr Peterson I was looking for a lecture you did about people looking to make transformation and needing to cut down on CZcams limit the people that add no value in your life and so forth it was a short clip words to that effect any help would be appreciated in pointing me to that video thanks
I'd rather work 24/7
THIS DUDE IS A FUCKING WIZARD!!!
Wow surprised they let me
Sandra Hamon's Ph.D thesis compared workaholics and alcoholics. You might find value in her work.
Do good

Is there a good way to find all of Jordan Peterson bible-related discussions?
Barrister good
Second time pressing
It doesn’t make sense that God needs to rest but I agree with the rest of the message
That's why I can say bad bad bad
I'm going to make my sounds in if anyone else can hear them
