  • AUDIO CORRECTED VERSION: In this lecture, I complete my discussion of Big Five trait openness to experience, which is the dimension composed of an amalgam of creativity and intelligence. I also discuss IQ: how it is measured, what it means, how powerfully it predicts long-term life success, as well as the highly skewed Pareto distribution of creative production.

    I'd like to offer an objection to one thing JP's saying in this video. Specifically, telling creative people to find a (non creative) way to make money and do your creative stuff on the side. Reality isn't necessarily even nearly as grim as he makes it seem, if you're willing to look for something outside of your certain creative niche that scratches the same itch.
    I spent my teens / early adult years trying to make music as a career. When that seemed hopeless, I learned to paint and I'm now working as a concept artist in the film/gaming industry. And the demand for creative people in this industry (animators, programmers, 3d modellers etc) is enormous. The revenue generated from these industries is also enormous.
    So, if you're like me and you need to work creatively, jump into the entertainment industry. It's not a lottery, there's plenty of work.

    Random thoughts about Prices law and hyper-performers. Not what I believe, but what *might* play a role.
    1) Some minority of people are hyper-performers. The ones that are recognized are nurtured and reinforced.
    2) Talent is hard to find and it takes talent to notice, short of the tail extreme being blindingly obvious. Reduced interaction and increased noise between the upper percentile and the general population makes it less probable of other talent to notice.
    3) My guess.... is as a company grows, bureaucracy and interactive insulation at least limits some hyper-performer's ability to be noticed. Along with reduced spontaneous promotion to a position of influence.
    4) The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. As a group, the hyper-performers can represent a high percentage of value, but at least some of their value is from the "others".
    5) In many areas, hyper-performers can have a trickle-down effect by exposing limitations in the current system or directly participating in enhancing the system and makes all others more efficient. This means their value scales with the number of other employees.

    good to know I've been following my own intuition on the problem of creativity, and that you've echoed my sentiments. I am miserable without creating things, but have no interest in relying on creativity for income - because i feel it conflicts strongly with my goals to eventually raise a child.
    Interesting take on novelty vs usability... I've decided i would Create based on my own novelty irregardless of utility for my own personal happiness (being my primary goal)
    I'm happy to see more of Peterson that isn't about c16 or pronouns...
    the truth no matter what Jordan

    I am an artist by trade, actually make a living, but I tell you I backed off anyone that colored their hair weird colors because most of the time they just were talkers and their craft tended to be meaniless and shitty. I am kind but not blind. I think a bunch of people who claim to be artist are frauds, insecure and afraid they will be found out.

    The median is not the mode. The median is the value in a distribution, or are the two value, for which there is an equal size of the population above and below that value. Median income is the point that divides the population into two halves in terms of earnings.
    The modus is the most occurring value, that is the definition you give after 22:00. It could of course still be that the median and the modus are equal. But that doesn't make your definition of median correct.

    • @rajinfootonchuriquen
      @rajinfootonchuriquen Před 4 lety

      What you describe is the mean. The median is the center of the parameter you measure. If you measure the income, and goed between 5-1000, the median is around 502,5. In a normalize distribution Z~(0,1), the median, the mean and the modus are the same.

      It indeed doesn't make sense if the distribution was normal. In this case, however, it is Pareto distributed, so he is correct in saying that the median number is 0. Approximately half of the population has 0 creative productions.

      @@rajinfootonchuriquen The median is found by rank ordering the incomes per individual, and taking the middle value of the ranks. (e.g. 50th percentile)
      The mean (or average, or expectation value) is found by adding up all incomes, and dividing it by the population.
      The mode/modus is the most occuring value.
      If there are 10 million people in a country, the median is found by rank ordering all the incomes, and taking the 5 millionth value. The mean is found by adding up all the incomes, and dividing that by 10 million.

    As someone who had extraordinarily high levels of creativity as a teen and in my early 20's I'm not so sure it was because I got lucky genetically, I believe its 100% down to the things I grew up doing from a very young age to a young adult. And i bet if you were to study the childhood of other people that grow up to be highly creative they likely spent large amounts of time doing similar things that developed their brains in ways that creative people are lacking.
    Also, my creativity is no where near what it once was (although still higher than the average person it would seem) and i believe that to be because I don't spend much time these days doing the things that built it and are most likely also required to retain it. I was literally like a human idea factory that could generate idea upon idea and then take those ideas and sculpt them further into better ideas, or combine ideas that already exist into greater ones.... all in my head visually effortlessly. It gave me a great sense of humour as I was always thinking outside the box in ways my peer group couldn't and then transfer my thoughts into language that would create amusing visual images in others minds.
    However, It also had negative affects on my life that other highly creative people may be able to relate to. For instance in social situations I could likely conjure multiple bad outcomes in my imagination that would be of a very vivid nature and make you hesitant to proceed for fear of them becoming reality, , which gave me social anxiety issues. Id often put my thoughts into others heads thinking they were thinking the same. Also at times my mind just wouldn't 'shut up' hard to relax and fall asleep when my brains just constantly generating new and interesting thoughts in my head or ones that are bad and cause worry. Insane, often times horrific and violent nightmares have also been commonplace for me throughout my life, but there has also been many nights where I've had dreams that were so good I wish they were a reality. I used think some of my dreams were so unique and original if expanded upon would make for great movies.
    I am curious to know if i were to partake in what i believe to be creativity building exercises again would my mind return to its former ways.... its an area I have much interest in as for both personal gain - as its incredibly rewarding to create things of value in the world (even when not paid for it) but also helping others do the same.
    Oh one other thing - Marijuana, when i used to smoke it its like steroids for a creative mind, I know a lot of musicians and other artists use it and thats probably why.

    Why I love Peterson's approach on theoretical predictions is to systemize the outcome of success by intelligence and character traits, aiming to reduce the number of wishful thinking cases with horrible outcomes. But SZA, for example, enters the room and crushes all statistics. It only reaches a few of the predictable numbers and still wins. So, I guess there are many unpredictable things when it comes to success in terms of creativity. Since I knew her music when she wasn't successful and knew from the beginning that this is gold, I ask myself - how. And one of a hundred things I agree with him on is that creativity is a burden - if you don't live up to your potential, you can't be happy. So it's worth a try, regardless of the outcome.

    I remember a company, I think it was Rolls Royce for their turbine engines, sent me a small personal letter thanking me for my tooling design because it was unlike what every other company gave them. Even got to design a tool for Tesla's Model S when they were starting production. Thought that was really cool. That was right after college, I ended up leaving that company out of boredom shortly after and got into the controls automation world. Later I had Kodak fly out after a couple months as working as a controls engineer to explain to them how you could have a manufacturing machine auto calibrate and that it would be faster and more accurate. My productivity isn't high because I get bored very easily, but my guess is I'm always kept around for my creative solutions to complex problems.

I never knew this entire time there was an actual channel for all of this a central hub where it all originated from. Not once was this channel reccomended and I've watch literally dozens of hours of this guy. I had to find it from a link in a comment of one of the clips previously mentioned. I havent really cared much or thought the youtube censorship was that big a deal up until I clicked that link. This channel should have popped up months ago in my reccomendations but all I see there is garbage. It's a tragedy that the people who are actually trying to help society with ideas that make sense are censored and demonized by the media.

    With paperback books you make 5% of less in royalties but with self publishing on amazon it's possible to make 70%. But it's actually incredible how when you buy a book for like 20 euros with free shipping if you take out taxes (where I live it's 24% VAT) it's 16 euros, and then you have to take out the amount for sending the book or mainting a storefront with the rent and employees..., another amount for the management costs of company selling the books, another part for your editor if you don't do it yourself, another amount for the marketing of the book if you self publish or for the publisher so you benefit from it's brand and distribution relationships, and obviously you have the cost of actually printing it if it's a physical book.

    I love Petersons lectures and I learned a lot of things on top of my already finished study.. There is only one small thing that we know now is not true: he says around 43 min that high openness is connected/associated with more psychosis risk.. It's not.
    They tested 134 individuals with subclinical psychosis experience (= psychosis like experiences), 40 psychotic patients and 126 healthy controls. They studied their big five personality structures and the group differences were for neuroticism (more depression and anxiety, high angry hostility ) and openness (feelings of high fantasy, aesthetics and ideas) low conscientiousness (low competence and self discipline) and low agreeableness ( low trust) and low extraversion (facet gregariousness).
    When they studied the facets level across the psychosis continuum, they found that the facet Hostile feelings, low trust and Gregariousness may be a better predictor of general psychosis proneness.
    We need to study more how the facets are connected and make specific patterns..
