"You dont excactly exist until have your own words." This hit me.
Like a bubble burst, yeah
You're beautiful
@soyuer, that's pretty much it. I mean, when we realized our kids just sound the same or parroting what we say, is exactly the same way how we have been looking up to our parents, likewise nowadays with millennial, what happens is they look up to immature peer groups, so their thoughts and beliefs are fragile, hence they need a safe space, in other words, they aren't ready to face the world in its cruelest forms, hence that's where the identity politics comes in, to safe guard these kid's safe space, and it'll do more harm to these kids than good, hence many commit suicide and depressed, and most of these extreme left wing university kids alienate these so-called identity politics soon after they leave universities and come to realize the harm that system had done for them.
Yes, it hit me too. And, bizzarre enough, it left me speechless.
Same
"Nothing uglier than a stagnant 40 year old infant"
ayo im off to the fucking library boys.
What a compelling statement. I wonder where he got these thoughts he's articulating.. meaning are they actually his own, or did he just rip them off and then attempt to convey the message that he was speaking the truth, when actually he was speaking someone else's truth. what a fucking c@#! S^@#!*.
thx for making me lol made my day
😂
😂😂😂
How has the journey been after 2 years ?
How does he articulate his thoughts so clearly. His brain is so well organized.
He explained how in this video! Learn to write and read. God bless
Someone does tidy His rooms First
Practice, preparation, experience
High verbal IQ and a decent bit of practice lecturing
@@mobius4247this in combination with the first response, but iq is definitely most of it
This man is a definition of University Professor of utmost respect
lol no. he is a fraud
@@jotarokujo5132 God loves you
@@jotarokujo5132mind to explain why he is?
“You can’t participate in the conversation until you’ve read the book.” Well said.
How ironic. He accepted a debate on marxism only to admit he hadnt read kapital
❤Law school taught me that❤
@@enterpassword3313 what's the point? the drift between modern marxism and kapital is the same as the drift between the american christians and the greek text of the new testament.
@@slinkyseal5783 so you havent read it either, you just like throwing around labels
Great way to sell your book.
Top form from Dr Peterson here, it's moments like this he's at his greatest.
Have you read Carl Jung yet on his reading list?
What are moments like this like?
Reading some books from Dr. Peterson's reading list, has brought more light to me as to why he thinks the way he does. It's absolutely enlightening.
Can you tell me the books that you think should be read first? I weak in English, but high in enthusiasm and curiosity.
And which one you currently reading from his list?
And why you thought the way you stated here?
And from which book you get that thought?
@@anitachouhan7742 I don't really read in order, I read books simultaneously cause I cannot focus on reading one book at a time. I've read Brave New World by Aldus Huxley, 1984 and Animal Farm by George Orwell, the abriged version of Gulag Archipelago, Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl -- I really like this one -- I'm trying to read Carl Jung's Man's Search of a Soul, but I find it to be a difficult read as well as Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil. Then there is of course 12 Rules for Life, and Maps of Meaning. I'm trying to expand to other authors as well. If and when you read these books, you will figure out where Dr. Peterson is coming from based on his lectures and public speeches and stand on social issues pertaining to Postmodern ideology.
Are they hard reads? (advanced vocabulary) ?
@@gianmikaeloalegre8500 strongly recommend Dostoevsky
He just repeats their ideas. I don’t know if he has an original idea.
Self Education is crucial when you want to build a strong healthy mindset. Love it! 😍
Thats what it is,about. I went to school also to get a framework and research tools to educate myself. So, I could share better in pursuit of truth for myself and others. I also learned there how not to tell it.
I agree with his picks. So happens I read the same things.
Jordan Peterson is right about these books tearing you down. I remember finishing Brave New World and felt very depressed for a couple of days. After that initial feeling I began to appreciate what the book had to say about the future of our society and even where we stand now. I’m glad to have read it and feel a lot more aware and conscious of our world.
what I don't understand is how would it tear you down?
@@krukrok5218 have you read it
@@krukrok5218 Your beliefs are a part of you, when they are taken apart. It is very stressful, confusing and anxiety provoking.
@@sameer.bhardwaj7585 im in part 3. Still hasn't taken me apart and tear me down.
Brave New World describes the cowardly sludge that encompasses and disguises from every perspective the authoritarian big brother hierarchies dominating the centerpieces of contemporary civilization.
I've not seen Pinocchio in years (since my youth) & its been a favorite story that puzzled me during a chaotic childhood.
This was quite enlightening. Thank you, Jordan.
So glad I found this video!
You dont have to read the right people. You just have to committe to intellectual honesty, then read everything of interest.
This man deserves more. keep your chin up Jordan. Thank you for helping make us stronger individuals with cleaner rooms.
jc sol Seriously. I just saw an hour long interview on Rex.TV.
He is really spent. Seems very unstable. It’s no wonder why.
I think he’s got enough in the bank to take a year off. He really needs it!

@@giovanninopanderino5235 taking a vaction. Listen.
More of what
Thank you for the furthered insights.
Thanks for the upload! Have a blessed one
my way of self education is 50% creative ideas from inspirations, 40% of gaining that said inspirations AKA knowledge and also verify the legitimacy of that said creativities based on said knowledge, 10% reflect on self actions especially mistakes based on said knowledge
exactly what i was searching for.tq
Many thanks Sir
Yes, Jordan going within self is key..powerful. For me, reading Jungs writing many years ago he made me cry. Because his words were transforming. He was a man of great insights but one of higher consciousness. Maybe a mystic?
Correct about educating one's self. I have been listening to world teachers daily for 40yrs. Because I didn't like what I saw as a child. Living in a smaller town at 14yrs..I thirst for change. But after many years- realized change starts within you first. When we raise our personal consciousness we can only raise the collective consciousness of our world. Just maybe if we could raise our individual consciousness we could change history. Because peace is a state of being from a raised consciousness.
My ancestors were Indigenous they had no books. But had great wealth of knowledge. Their way of life was lived with the interconnection of all life. For me, in my many years of research segregation divided our world through our thoughts and actions. It being war, relationship, race, religion, caste, all division -lacking the interconnection to all of life. If we harm something we harm another and self.
Still learning but become humbled by it. Stay blessed 🙌
Really inspiring video! Lately I've been trying to educate myself property, and this really gave me more reasons to start. Thank you!
Knowing you are speaking the truth, which integrates you, also it's a harmonizing effect, Listening to others, allows you to integrate more clearly, and learning how to write, a major undertaking, using syntax in your writing exercises, DONE DEAL.
Very well, thanks you Jordan!
I love JP and his videos on the bible, is so awe inspiring! Thanks JP xxx
So happy you're back doc and looking healthy. We all appreciate what you do and by proxy do for us. You're a voice for millions whether you intend to be or not. The funny thing is too, as I would expect you would agree, your just saying obvious things that we should all know but have forgotten in this me me me and the gimme gimme world society has become!
But, you have to take care of yourself first. Realizing you had an problem and asking for help is another sign of your humility and character. Things that make so so appealing.
healthy? he looks like a corpse.
You took me back to college English class thabk you for this video
At 70 how the heck does a person devastate themselves then rebuild as a better person. Iv'e already read some of those books albeit some years ago but it didn't happen for me, JP is so ahead of the field it's frightening. Having had elocution as a child, reading poetry and learning to speak to an audience I gained some power from it, but this man is at an altogether higher level. The pen indeed is mightier than the sword.
this is deep.. we must go deeper
“Arguments move the world forward”
God bless you.
A very clear theme I see from the authors and books he recommends
I adore Jordan Peterson's teachings. Powerful!
I wonder why he doesnt take his own advice?
Thank you Mr Jordan Peterson. God bless .
This man’s mind is brilliant..
I was just thinking about searching up a video like this with jordan (didnt even know if it might exist...)
And then 5 min later it popped into my feed... wow
Well damn, growing up with very independent political ideals I have become very right wing over the last several years, but it feels very conflicting with my natural tendencies. He just made me realize I have been speaking Jordan Peterson words and ideals not my own. I have being following his teachings for self development, but in turn I also have taken his political beliefs which are not my own.
"If you speak the truth, the results are the best that is possible under the consequences" WOW this hit me
Who else is watching this and feeling pumped?
Very good!!
Thankuou
I’m currently trying to get through The Gulag Archipelago. It’s tough going but Jordan says it’s essential. It will be the sixth of Jordan’s recommended books I’ve read, after 1984, Animal Farm, Brave New World, The Bible and Crime and Punishment. Crime and Punishment was very interesting, I was thinking about it for weeks after I finished it. I’m dreading Nietzsche though.
Dude read the Bible..respect
Animal Farm is a fairy tale next to Nietzsche... I'm not even sure we are all capable of reading Nietzsche.
Nietzsche is pretty easy in comparison to a lot of other philosophers. Definitely the most exciting read compared to the other ones mentioned….it’s a pretty surface level list but props for reading them regardless. Break into Camus, Ernest Becker, Max Stirner, Otto Rank, etc
I am reading the books about western history written by will durant,,is this a good Idea or should I read the books that Peterson suggest?
He's actually explaining why positive self-talk like a mantra you recite everyday is crucial
“Many idiots have already chosen to go into hiding (some in fridges) and many more could easily follow. We really don’t know what the future holds for us,” he said.
let's see if we follow through with the sound advice
Waaah! Only got a few years left before Im a stagnant 40 year old infant. Just finished Crime and punishment, it was truly a great read. Hopefully I will make it in time...
your prime time has just begun... dont be so negative. Maturity and wisdom etc at 40+ is beautiful
@@hmzmss thank uuu! Last 1.5 y I finished 60 books! I feel like I needed a nudge! Growing up and taking responsibility since 2 years ago when my comment was made I have gotten 2 promotions and moved appartment and still questing to find my purpose but generally having a more positive outlook! Thank you for comment. Goes to show that being 40 is not bad as long as one avoids being satsfied with being a 40 year old infant! Jordan Peterson has helped me so much through hard times by equipping myself to face my own life!!
@@qine6559 Thats awesome to hear, wish you all the best! and yeh man 40 is just the beginning! The prophethood of Muhammad began at 40, I think one of the wisdoms of that is it took 40years to live life and go through experiences and gain insight into the world and people before he commenced on this journey. Blessed age! stay smiling ✌ Allah bless you x
Damn i also just finished this book.. it's strange
Well done ,you not alone
Beautiful words, really. I have always appreciated Jordan Peterson's concise gripping of truths. However, I do have one issue, how come he was unable to educate himself with regards to "Plaestine" before he thought that "giving them hell" would be the best and most moral response?
Good content ❤
Amazing
- "Being torn down and rebuilt is no joke."
Tolstoy is a legendary writer ... I recommend all of his book especially Anna karnina
Could you tell me if theres any order to follow when you start reading these books like the once by Tolstoy and dostoevsky ???
I recommend starting from masterpieces of tolstoy first especially ana karnina and other short novels ... but remember the works of dostoevsky is a little bit harder because much deeper and in result more rewarding.
Both writers are great but tolstoy is easier to perceive but doesn't mean dostoevsky is impossible to study.
I think there is danger in consumption of these type of content, if your belief system is not well develop it might results in the person not knowing there potential in actions but I keeps getting interesting and all you can do is being done and enlightenment is no longer a goal but you're state of being ... This type of education is free wow thank you
"Arguments move the world forward"
Dostoevsky
Tolstoy
Solzhenitsyn
Orwell
Huxley
Nietzsche
Jung
I am reading Nietzsche at the moment and I have to say it’s tough man, I have constantly the feeling, I am bloody dumb and need to reread, to even get the sentence right ….
When you use [others words] simply make sure you are aware of what you are saying and upon agreeing with same, for example, Shakespeare, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and so on, even if you don't fully understand what is meant by saying the words, it's a learning curve issue, DONE DEAL.
Which books would anyone recommend from all of these authors!?
❤
He uses a wider range of words in 2 paragraphs than I use in month
😂😂😂😂
More importantly, how do you educate others?
I’m in spot in life where I want to educate myself but I do not know what about. And I’m 20 now, I don’t have time to just learn random stuff and hope it provides value to me. I need to learn something that I can use to provide for myself.
Any advice?
What are your goals in life?
@@Devansh-nu4qw To create a family that values me and vice versa. To be able to provide for them, and to provide as much value to the world as I possibly can. I want to view myself as an educated man ( not arrogant but educated) and have others value my opinions as well.
So
1: Financial stability to a high degree.
2: Family whom I love and who love me back.
3: Knowledge and wisdom which I can apply and have the capability to accrue more of throughout my life.
@@SlimeOhIm Your response is still a bit wide-ranging. However, I would recommend these books:
"The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen Covey
"Man's Search for Meaning" by Viktor E. Frank
"How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie
"Atomic Habits" by James Clear
Why because we feel it's good to tell the truth is it good to tell the truth? What is good/evil in this context? Why not feel weak and ashamed?
where do i find the full video?
Does reading Plato's republic or Aristotle help? Or reading the dictionary? What philosophy books I should read?
There are so many books one could read, but here is a suggestion: Crime and Punishment by Dostoyevsky. That book has really changed a lot on how I see the world and other human beings. The Russian novels are long but it pays off to read them.
So many, many. 😊
It’s one of the best videos
At least I recognize every name on that list, even if I haven't read much of them. Read People in Quandaries, Wendell Johnson, 1946. General Semantics.
3:40 authors list
Anybody know where I can find the full video?
Mind = blown
(yes, two are primarily historians, but, from history comes the shapes of man)
What is the truth?
How do you know if you're telling the truth?
How do we know if our idea is correct or wrong?
Where do we get our basis to examine if our idea is correct or wrong?
What is the underlying basis for all of these?
I think in a sense what you came to watch the video for brother , self analyze what you feel is truth and so forth, write down what you think, how it makes you feel, what you have gathered from personal experience and do the righteous things in life
read Nabokov
Couldn’t find the lists on his website, can someone help?
Which books all by eeach author of specific ones
Why does this resinate with me?
You educate yourself with a set of Great Books and a Bible.
Kyle well, that's a reasonable start.
Bilble... pass!
Quixotic Indiscipline you shouldn’t, it’s the base of west culture. Don’t read it as a religious book, read it as a series of stories of humanity (from west perspective).
@@joaofernandes5217 I've only read about half the old testament, but a lot about religion. I do have a sense on how it has influenced society through the centuries. I suppose I will try and get bacl to read the whole thing, but right now books about superstition, violence, incest and magic are kind of low on my list.
Bhagavad Gita is a great one as well! 💪
For the young men (and young women too) who have read the manga Berserk and/or seen the anime, you will find much more depth in The Gulag Archipelago to chew on especially when it comes to causality and other philosophical questions.
All facts. Every. Single. Word.
Read All quiet on the western front
Can anyone give me their thoughts on reading books from Machiavelli?
What will i gain by reading them?
What's the story in the beginning about pleasure island
you need to watch his lectures in his youtube channel about maps of meaning. He talk about it in detail.
the power of speech an writing only works if people ar willing to listen to you
You need it for your own edification if nothing else.
I wonder what Dr. Peterson would think about Don Quixote and The Trail.
The Gulag Archipelago put me in a dark place. Man that book is tuff!!
Konstantin Kisin mentioned it in one of the his interviews..i got it!! I can't wait to dive in!! I was looking up some writings on it...I think I am in for something really hefty!! Thanks for the reminder😊
@@corrinapaolini3942 no problem. Get some antidepressants ready lol
Logos; the gift of representation and communication. That's cultural gift.
Thanks for honoring my freedom of speech.
Jordan's perception of "highest good" is Christianity ... either Catholic or Protestant ... as it can't BE both.
Religious theology divides devotees into right-fighting opponents ... which is the exact opposite of the word "love."
It is religion itself that is sinister.
I would also add 10 books every woman should read - A Room of One's Own, Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, The Bell Jar, The Second Sex, The Awakening, The Handmaid's Tale, The Feminine Mystique, Little Women, Bad Feminist, The Color Purple.
Can someone tell me where's the full lesson?
You can find it on his channel!
Title maybe Jordan Peterson to millenials!
czcams.com/video/XbOeO_frzvg/video.html Found it for u
This is what I think.
Jordan Peterson, I think we should get together for a discussion and I think it should be filmed because It might be pretty damned hilarious.
Whats a good Jung book to start with?
Maybe his autobiographical book
This reminds me of A.A and N.A Meetings
Sometimes. Lol.
It seems more like it's about teaching you debate and history, I was hoping for more. I can't wait to see what his Online University teaches. I hope it's not just humanities
Its going to mostly right wing talking points lol. Who do you think is funding him?
1984
I would put Plato quite far above most of these, especially above Nietzsche
Okay, PhilosophyInsights... Let’s understand something: Jordan Peterson is speaking.... therefore...... come on... you can do it..... Okay, I’ll GIVE you the answer: It is NEVER TIME FOR AN AD in the middle of his speech.
Other people can help you find your own words by acting as positive and negative models.
What kind books are this
Can someone tell me the best books of these authors to read thou? Has one author has done multiple books.
You need to vist JBP site.
The list is exteeensive!
I’m surprised there are no ancient or medieval philosophers on that list
