    That was a very polite way to say to the interviewer "no buddy, you're part of the problem, stop doing exactly what you're doing". lol. This is why I love JP, the interviewer gave him a setup to grab his self righteous brownie points and claim victory and JP says no, and instead delivers a much needed message to people with exactly that mindset. The world definitely needs less people who want to win right now

    04:00 "A soft/gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." ~ Prov. 15:1
    What Jordan Peterson is basically saying is that by using minimal force and speaking to your "adversary" in a calm, non confrontational manner then you'll win the war and not the battle. In turn, you don't ever need to win another battle because you've already won the war which is far more significant in comparison. I'm forever grateful for Dr. Peterson and every word of wisdom that he has so generously shared with all of those who have been blessed to have listened to them and who are more than eager and willing to learn, grow, and utilize these invaluable life lessons that he's been compassionate enough to educate and enlighten us with. Be Blessed ~ Godspeed !!!

      @Bright Future There's nothing wrong with defending yourself if someone resorts to physical violence. But using minimal force will help to avoid a situation like that altogether. This quote from Theodore Roosevelt comes to mind: "Speak softly and carry a big stick."

    • @freddy4603

      This still might be the wrong way of phrasing this, because it's not good to win the "war" either, you don't want to win, you want to make peace, so that real diplomacy can take place. Winning the war as a metaphor for achieving ones goals through calm diplomacy, at least for me, is a an un-intuitive metaphor

    I have experienced this a lot in my life. I’m 44 and only just learning to not take responsibility for other people’s bad behaviours. It is tough. The way I do it is be reasonable and kind, because that is what I am. But if they don’t respond with the same then I have to force myself to let it go in the comforting knowledge that I at least did my best and was true to the values I hold dear about myself. Yes it hurts and it’s difficult and I feel a lot of anger at times. But I stop, remind myself that I’ve done my best and then move on. You WILL be stronger for it, it just won’t always feel that way.

    Very hard in practice, especially when provoked to the extreme and undeniably wronged, and especially when you are “legitimately” right and you respond in a fury of speaking the truth very harshly and forcefully, crushing the other party. Your character has to be very strong to do that, and to even in the face of the worse offenses to speak the truth with love and self control. It really shows the self mastery and the power of character Christ had to endure what He did and constantly maintain the right attitude and respond to all things correctly.

There is this 17 years old girl that started to work at the local gym around the same time as I did and she is just ....... soo way up her own ass .... it's really hard to work with her and even have little conversations. Anyway, a little fight broke out between us just a day ago and it broke out because she didn't want to give me a simple information I needed for work, because she thinks I'm way up my ass because I'm older than her (21). Anyway, just before the argument would got out of hand I said "look, I didn't want to piss you off for god knows what reason... but trust me, you don't want this to go out of hand ... because we need to work together the next 3 years and it's going to be hell if we go down that path, so let's just try a new start, hallo I'm Dominik, who are you?". Guess what her choice was..... exactly, walk down the highway to hell. I literally said " here's my hand, why don't just take it for the sake of peace?" and her answer was literally "no thanks". I guess some people just want to see the world burn to the ground until they burn themselfs for the first time.

      Tones such as "but trust me, you don't want this to go out of hand" definitely carries a condescending attitude, and it could sound very provocative.
      I don't know the full story, but what I would do first is to hear her out. Why is she mad? Just because she is an awful person? I highly doubt it.
      From what you posted, you may actually know what you have said that might have triggered her.
      Think about what you said. If you actually said something mean, apologizing would help greatly. If you didn't say something mean, then hear out why she is angry.
      Remember, just like what JBP said, don't put too much of your emotion if somebody angers you.
      Don't let that "little fight" to break out.

      I've watched his talks carefully, having an issue with that, as well. Near as I can tell, his view is that one should live as if those stories are "true" (they teach useful precepts) whether you believe them literally or not. In fact, he does speak out against hidebound dogmatism on occasion. So, I think he uses the bible as you might make a movie or music reference; as a kind of shorthand.

      He took medications when dealing with his wife's cancer. He since stopped and is much better now than when he stopped taking them
