This is financial advice and I never give financial advice: DONT LEAVE DURING THE BEAR. If you don’t want to invest…learn. If you don’t want to learn…build. If you don’t want to build observe. DO SOMETHING…other than leave. There is so much opportunity here. Take advantage!
where’s the opportunity
This time three years ago, failing multiple classes as a college freshmen I watched this video and cried for hours. The turn around for me began with Jordan’s advice in this video and continues to this day. The main things I have done are delete my Twitter and Instagram as I was addicted to them, as well as spend countless hours creating an enticing study environment which would make me want to study. What really worked was actually putting my video game monitor directly next to my computer monitor so the work space was more inviting. I Just got accepted into my transfer university for Mechanical Engineering and I can honestly say it would not have happened if it weren’t for this video.
Beyond this I would add, just in making progress on a meaningful path everything is better. Food tastes better, relationships are better, less anxiety, more excitement for tomorrow. Hell is a real place and not taking responsibility is a straight line path to it.
Keep pushing bro I don’t know you but I’m proud of you
This was really motivating, I'm proud of you.
Elon bought twitter bro, you can go ahead and download it again 👍
I need so much help with this, I procracinate so bad when I should be doing homework assignments. I do real work just fine, but school is so boring, and I try to make myself do the assignments, but scrolling through social media is a literal force for me, I try to stop but I can't and I have C's in a lot of my classes. Its a literal Hell because of myself.

"You are far more important than you think" this touched me. Bless Dr. Peterson! He is a man with passion and love
I got stuck in college for extra 2 years because of procrastinating. I wasted most of my time playing video games, going out and never wanted to study or even start an assignment. Eventually, I started becoming very depressed and had a lot of anxiety thinking about my future. As soon as a new semester started, I promised myself that I won't procrastinate and will start doing assignments on the first day, I wish I had done that before. I finally graduated and received my degree. All I can say is this, do NOT get distracted. Do NOT think that starting an assignment is gonna drain your energy because it won't, once you start doing it you'll keep on writing and get in the zone. Keep on going and don't do what I did. All you need is to wake up and realize that you've got a future ahead of you and you need to get out of this obstacle.
this is exactly my situation now
OMG
faxs, i'm still in highschool but at the moment i got a whole week of assignments missing because i procrastinated.
@@heyamejid5928 ik exactly but sometimes i get affected by friends who absent a lot who is lazy then when my friend is absent i be absent too. But that was before

I have a physic midterm in 3 days 3 chapters and I haven't studied anything since the start of the semester. This video is the wake-up call I needed. I complain about how hard physic is but the fact is that I never studied simple it is. I'm aiming for that 1% better results and wish you guys all the best.
how did it go?
Best teachers encourage their students to think what they want to do in life and to focus on what they feel most passionate about. Wasting time stops when people find what they want to do and actually do it.
A thorough, clear, concise and actionable summary: 1. Daily Scheduling a. Schedule for the day you want (to be very efficient). b. Negotiate with yourself the best balance of opportunity, enjoyment and health. c. Does this plan care for me? d. What junk can I eliminate? 2. Schedule Review: a. How accurate was my plan? b. How can I improve its accuracy? c. Did it improve me? 3. Scheduling over time a. Set goals for yourself (in all aspects). b. Modify your goals as you develop. c. Keep a routine (for health and productivity). d. Improve things within your sphere of influence. 4. Your Influence a. Writing (and learning how to) strongly develops how you think, discuss and influence. b. We are all nodes in a network that influence and effect each other (and therefore matter).
You Saved my 15 Mins dude....ty😂
Watch the video people. Take notes as you go along. Then live it out. With thanks and all due respect to Nick Allott, this (above) is really only for half of the content of the video. My actionable points for the same content look a bit different because they are from my perspective.

I watched this video about 4 hours ago. Now it's 4am and I've cleaned my apartment, did the dishes and finished my assignments. Thanks for the inspiration!
PIHL I am proud of you, I know how hard it can be ;) I am going to make a plan after the video that I can use for the rest of the year, I wanted to do this months ago.
Lets hope its consistent. A problem I've faced is that I start doing something because of inspiration... but then I start to do less and less until I'm back to doing nothing.
@@DJKrisyKrisdude I feel like it's the same for me. Maybe I just have to whatch this video once a month or so 😊

I’m not a student at a university, but this video gave me a motivation to study books that would help me achieve my goals. I will also study the greats who did it before me, history etc.. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY i say this under every “motivational video” . One day you must create your own motivation. Be safe👊🏼
Hello there peter - seeing as you liked M2S's video above (I love their videos as well), I would really appreciate your thoughts on mine? I am in the same motivation niche and I am trying to improve my videos, so would love your opinion - do you think you could take 2 mins to let me know what you think? Of course, if you like what you see and you want to sub that would be absolutely amazing! Let me know and I can reply when you do 😄 All the best, MM

I started working hard to better myself, my studies and my performance. I lost all my friends from before who are still partying every day until 7am, and they've asked me why I changed so much. I hope I won't regret the decision, as those people were dear to me.
Well sacrifices have to be made for one's development... And don't worry u will eventually make friends who share ur ideals and even if u don't keep moving and never go back ...
With you in that girl
You will regret nothing that betters your life. You’ll learn as time goes by that no one does anything for you. You have to do it for yourself. I’m very happy for you x
I watched this video 2 years ago. It changed my life. I took the advice and acted on it. Life is totally different now.
Good for you man. My life has changed since I started watching him. Thank God. About to chase a small dream after I finish a work assignment in three months.

It is such a tragedy that Jordan Peterson is hated by so many people, can‘t believe it.

He just tells the truth, how things are and how to solve them. People dont like hearing the truth

TBH I came here just to have something to listen to while making food. But I had to stop to cry for a moment because I'm finally hearing someone acknowledge that people have to negotiate with themselves ... and he says it so candidly too! Maybe I spend too much time in mental health and self help circles, but so many people tell me I'm crazy to have to negotiate with myself, that I should just get in a mindset where I want to do it, and it's so unfair! Thank you for acknowledging that people negotiate with themselves. I feel worlds better.
samee!!! i came here to have something to listen to while making food too !
the book "E-myth revisited" greatly describes this, you are absolutely right here. we are not always willing to do the hard work, we sometimes just dont feel like it - and thats where negotiation has to be done. I highly recommend reading that book if you are interested in business.
I know for a fact that the person reading this is really strong. You are really strong honey and your are doing so good! Anxiety is really hard to overcome so be proud of yourself for not giving up. (virtual hug) Remember that everything will be okay, it doesn't matter when, just hang on okay? Hang on. It will come - and after it arrived you will be so happy, happy about the fact that you never gave up. That you are strong. I love you, and many other people do too. Always hang on and wait for your happiness to arrive.❤
Its difficult to concentrate on a 15 mins video. That's how focussed i am. Pray for me guys.
I was thinking the same while watching this.
Yeah. I stopped watching it 5 minutes through the video and started reading comments.

I just missed the deadline of valuable internships that could have motivated me to make a career choice post university and I missed it marginally. At this point I feel like I'm heading nowhere with my career nor my education. What are my interests? What are my goals? Where do I see myself in 5 years? How am I to answer all of this? How many times do I have to lie in motivation letters? I feel after this video it takes guts and grit to start one step at a time. I must start by having the most productive one hour now and hopefully 2. Let's start at that and climb up lads. We're all in this together and i hope that everyone reading this has a great day and hopefully a great exciting life ahead of you!
-Don't waste time -Write -Make a schedule, stick to it, make it to your level. -Aim for 1% better results. -Take responsibility for what you're doing. Your actions matter more than you think. -Have a routine. -Fix the things that have to be fixed around you. -You can have what you want by reorienting your life in every way possible, that helps you achieve what you want.

"Why do u have to do this assignment? Why are u writing?You need the grade. NO - you need to learn to think. Thinking makes u act effectively in the world, thinking makes u win the battles u undertake & those could be battles for good things" -best thing I've heard in a while For other students struggling to study and who thinks your gaining nothing. As someone who was struggling to find purpose to study for exams, which I have right now. This really showed me a different perspective of studies. I completely agree with it, from creating a well-thought out schedule to learning how to stay focused & disciplined while studying, as well as, changing my mindset from a " ugh I have to study now cause I have to stay disciplined" to a "I actually get to study and want to atleast try and find interest in it". These are qualities that's needed in this world in order to make progress in something. I finally see some kind of benefit when studying - even if I won't use exactly what I'm studying rn and the grade that I get won't matter much in a couple years. I will gain more than I think through this, as well as improve my grades heh ;)
I asked myself this question a year ago and I realized first of all, and please think if this applies to you as well: I don't shower nearly as much as I should. When I'm alone I just didn't see the need to. The need was there though. I also didn't brush my teeth as much as I should. I then jotted it down in my schedule and did it until it became a habit. I then turned my view out to my room. I have clothes on the floor, dust bunnies in the corners of my room, and I still have some empty cartons of whatever drink I like just sitting on the table, as well as the plate I use and reuse everyday for eating. This was level 2. I put it in my schedule with red text. I unlock this when level 1 becomes a habit. I also put down a set amount of hours for core procrastination. Core procrastination is procrastination I can do no matter how much work I have to do. It's self indulgence that heals the soul. 6 hours is what I set myself a goal to do. So whenever I didn't have something to do, I started the countdown, and whenever I had something to do I paused it. When it was over and I didn't have something to do, that's when I would start adding things to my schedule. The year is October 26th 2022 and this is what I've been doing for a year now.
"Laziness isn't people not wanting to do something, laziness is people who are faced with having to do something they don't want to do." - Dan Harmon
Gab G The really lazy people will in fact find solace in the quote and continue being lazy because that is exactly what is wrong with them, they think it's the fault of the way things are going, the way they are being forced to do something rather than their own lack of will.
I disagree with that quote. Because you can be faced with something you really don’t want to do and immediately decide to do it anyway instead of being lazy (procrastinating on that thing because you don’t want to do it) about it.
Ironically Dan Harmon doesnt want to do rick and morty according to his own logic
Gab G that’s really supid so you should go along with every thing or you’re lazy
All energy tends towards a lower quality of energy. You have to introduce new energy into the system. Laziness is a result of a stagnant system which isn't being properly stimulated.
"You're a bad employee and an even worse boss.” That hit the hardest
Yup. I nearly fell out of my chair the slap was so hard but true.
"You might as well fire yourself "I felt that.
Mm! I hear ya
This really hits home. Seen so many people like this and was once among them as well. If anyone takes this seriously, it will change their everyday life.
I was always a good student, got into Aerospace Engineering at TU Delft. I didn't study nearly as much as I should've and got kicked out. I'm intelligent but not enough to not work hard. I then went to Turin and took 2 extra years to finish my bachelor. There are some excuses: Covid, losing 3 family members in a year, my dad not talking to me because he knew I could do better. I was depressed (I'm still sad but doing better) because I knew I could do so much more. Spent and still spend my days wasting time. I hope I can turn my life around. I need to stop feeling sorry for myself and forgive myself for the past.
I have literally wasted 4 years of my life. From being the topper of my class in the first year to being a dropout in the last year of university. I wish i didnt do that, i wish i didnt waste my time on playing games all day long, i wish i worked hard, i watched my friends go ahead in life. Time to unfuck my life now
Bro its same here....being a topper 2dropper..but im gonna make it again....god bless u keep doing the hard work
Its same here..being topper 2 dropper...but im on my pace again...hope u do the best..

Have some hope. You aren't dead yet.
I was like that 5 years ago. Then my school teacher met me again and she said "this is not the Ed I knew" and that changed everything. I felt so ashamed of myself and decided to work again. It took time but now I own two businesses, have a nice big house, have my dream car and then I met my teacher again and she said exactly what I wanted to hear - "You are better than you were back then". Only secret is - make your efforts bigger than your excuses.
It is frustrating that people misunderstand and misconstrue Jordan Peterson. His delivery seems harsh, but it has always seemed to me that he does just want the best for people.
Aaron Simmonds Agreed and his delivery is harsh because people aren’t enlightened by something that’s sugar coated. If you’re only kinda wrong, you only kinda need to change. But if you’re wrong, you either change and improve or you intentionally refuse to change.
Many snowflakes these days.
Tough love
Or they’re intentionally trying to shut him (and others like him) down so they can more easily control the uneducated masses.
Truth hurts
Watching this video reminded me that one of the most eye-opening perspectives that got me through to make good choices early on is being pessimistic. Pessimism may push me to look at every single negative thing in everything, but it’s helped me see the reality to do better, focus on my weaknesses, and live life through this ugly, imperfect world. I have insulted, undermined, or blamed people around me for their wrongs and flaws, but criticism may have helped the other person from a worse outcome. Not to say that the way I treat people in a passive aggressive way is my motto, but it’s my reaction if someone does wrong to me. I still hold to this principle, but I know that life can be better for others than this way. My benefits were less regrets, high expectations/goals, disciplined character, already meeting up to lots of advice given to me, and getting ahead in life.
That actually teaches people to get better, study harder and just motivate them to do the things they want to do in life and achieve their goals. I am thankful, that I have found this video!
"You are your own bad employee and worse boss", "cracking a whip and procrastinating, cracking a whip and procrastinating..." It's like he is gazing at my soul!

After at least a decade of doing this dance with KZhead and motivational videos I’ve slowly started realizing that if I can’t achieve something it’s only because I don’t want it, and the things I’ve been striving for are close but not exactly what I was originally looking for
One of the best speeches I have ever seen. The words moved me on and on.

If you are tired of failure, stop giving up.
Robust Misconception Keep working hard and it won’t be
The moment you give up is the moment someone else wins. Instead, I will be the winner.
give up, rest, think about the possibility, then try again.
@Robust Misconception thats why not everyone wins
The problem is that in actual life you have got only one or chances.... Hehehheheheh so do it correctly the first time is my advice.
He's a genius , an asset , a blessing to mankind 🔥
I watched this video to practice my English listening, and after a saw it I got very motivated to keep going. I will continue learning things and I think everyone should, because life is about it, not just about one subject specifically, like your work and so, they can be lots of them! And it is very satisfying when you realice that you're actually learning something and you can use it in your life. Sometimes I feel very anxious about how my future will be, because we can never be sure about what is going ti be, therefore I prefer to just enjoy the moment, but as many of us can see, it is no very useful for us, not for our live and economy, nor for our mental stability. So, in order to feel more fullfilled we have to take care of the things we want, and the things we think we want because we may be doing things just to fill somebodyelse's expectations. If you are reading this at the end, thank you, I'd be happy to see an answer or an opinion about this. n.n Good luck!
I started watching Jordan about 3 years ago and about 2 years ago I decided to get my shit together. I can't convey how much truth is in that positive backwards spiral. It took me 2 years of being motivated for a few days, followed by a week of sarcastic self hatred. About a month ago I started reliably getting up between 4 and 5 (This is one of the things I started working on at the beginning two years ago), I'm working out, and finally becoming the person I've always wanted to be. I still have a shit ton to work on and still probably waste half my day but... I tell you people. Just start. And every time you fail just try again. I've probably failed countless times just trying to get myself to get up early in the morning, and it fuckin sucks. But just keep going at it.
Perseverance! I get happy every time I see it :D Apart from when it is employed by the forces of evil of course.
Thanks, man.
Tobi I love it. Thanks for the motivating story.
The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried. Good luck x
I relate so much to this! Thank you for your comment
I did something, quite simple, that can serve other people: I eliminated the notifications of all the apps on my cell phone (I only left some essential ones as a battery), I eliminated all the social media apps (if I want to access one I have to open a browser , and since that sometimes takes more time and the experience is not the same because I hardly use social networks), I installed an app blocker (I use it to block KZhead and to avoid reading the newspapers). I have been like this for months and I can say that I feel better ..... I feel that if obstacles are added to an activity, the brain by itself is lazy to perform them and inevitably you will spend less time. I took a course (Learn to learn) and I understood that willpower is better to use it in a few cases, using it too often exhausts you physically and emotionally. Regarding planning, I feel that it is something that is continually being improved. What I have difficulties with is that I try to work at least 12 to 16 hours a day, and many times I am hard on myself. It is something I must work on. But I'd rather criticize myself for working too much than for not working or wasting time.
What app is this? I want to implement it as well
16 hours a day it's too much. Rest is investing your time in your Heath not being lazy
blocks KZhead huh?

This man has faced these issues head on in his own way, and wishes for nothing but others to never feel that pain, or confusion. When listening to this man, step back for a minute. Stop being in the moment. Think of what his words would mean directly if he were personally talking to you. I say "this man" and not his name because around his name is controversy. The lessons this man has learned, regardless of political view, are beneficial to humanity. This man over the years has lead me to realize were not our name, who others say we are. We are human beings... "and that's bloody complicated".
Every single day is a downsized version of your entire life, the way you are going to spend it, is the way you will be living for the rest of your life.
I don't agree.
Build it Ride it. Wise words

Benjamin Willcox That sentence hits hard
It's a good thing I'm not "networked" with any one.
Yes that was a strong statement and so true.
Good thing no one gives a shit about me.
Damn, by the moment i read this comment he said that. What's the odds
Absolutely amazing, blew my mind, it was like you were talking to me Mr. Peterson, so much respect to you, thank you!
listening to this video again after many months and wish I could give a thumbs up multiple time!!! He is nailing it!
I waste my whole year hating myself for doing nothing and playing video games whole day.
What vids u play?
Lol
Harsh that's not important What is important is what you are going to do now It's OK many of us have been there try and start improving this very second Wish you all the success and luck ☁😊☁☁😊☁😁☁ ☁😊☁☁😊☁☁☁ ☁😊😊😊😊☁😊☁ ☁😊☁☁😊☁😊☁ ☁😊☁☁😊☁😊☁

What if you could throw all game away? Give them away, get rid of that!
by the time i finished this video I was already hired at NASA
@Jesse McFarland-Ward nothing to see here, carry on
@Jesse McFarland-Ward dang it he got our "i saw nothing" hidden project. Get that pedestrian!!
ladies and gentlemen, we got him
NASA and Jordan both love nazis, so that makes sense coming from an illiterate plebe
@@moodist1er Huh? Hitler was a socialist. I'm pretty sure Peterson doesn't dig socialism.
Five years ago when I had just started my journey through university I watched this video when I was having trouble finding motivation to finish one of my first examination assignments and was thinking about dropping out. Now, five years on, I'm just over one semester away from graduating with a Masters degree in psychology and find myself returning here once again to find motivation during a stressful period of examinations. My, have I grown since 2018, but my goal is still the same. Thank you, Dr Jordan Peterson, by now I can safely say that you were crucial in my education and helped me stay in the game when I wanted to give up.
Jordan Peterson is the father of many. What makes him far better than many other leaders of this day is the fact that he never proves to be perfect. He shared his own weaknesses and struggles with us and teach us how to take it one day at a time. May God keep him.
0:28 "watching things on youtube that not only you don't want to watch. that you don't even care about, that make you *feel horrible about watching after you're done* . that's probably four hours right there. " it hits to the core... 😔
Have you changed that habit now?
he is so wrong... when i watch youtube or play videogames i do it because I WANT TO not because i want to waste time
@@goshu123 That's probably because you haven't yet found a higher purpose in life. Once you hit the point where you notice that all that time you spend playing games literally went down the drain, and you've wasted most of your life, only to grow older, only to see your life quality degrade... that's when it starts to hurt.
@@VVayVVard yeah but im still a teen and games are my childhood..i know when im older i wont be spending much time playing video games but i dont think ive wasted my childhood if i enjoyed it
@@goshu123 I'd strongly recommend spending as much time as you can to study while you're young. We retain information we memorize in our teens and early 20s far better than anything we learn later. My biggest and only regret in life is spending >50% of those precious years surfing the internet and playing games. I ended up learning to read and speak Japanese in the process by playing games and watching cartoons in Japanese, but I still wish I'd have spent more time reading college level textbooks on STEM subjects instead. That said I don't think all games are an absolute waste of time. I don't regret playing any Soulsborne games for one; they really build character and I'll probably have my kids play them in the future, too. Same with Trails series games. I wish I could erase all the time I spent on online games though.
Just cleaned up my room.
I cooked a lobster
I went straight to the comments
So proud of you 👍
Cleaned up my room,took shower,had lunch and watched this video
Pew, edits a small comment.. xD
"Maybe you can have what you need"...been a long time since I was willing to compromise with myself on "what I need" and be willing to accept less.
Half way through this video, I don't really know why I'm crying, or that I'm not sure why. This is heck of a sermon and I'm so grateful I get to listen to this while I still can, and so so thankful for the one who introduced me to Professor Jordan Peterson. I'm blown away and grounded at the same time: it's crazy and does truly make sense! I am not on my own, indeed. Everything matters and I affect everyone. This is the kind of "get your sht together" we need to our faces but with the purest intention and purpose! THANK YOU SO MUCH! No best time than now :)
We love him because he cares about us & knows that we need all of the motivation we can get. A lot of students don't get guidance they need from their parents while growing & maturing. So a good lesson is : do not let your kids push you around--they will love you & be thankful for your wise, no nonsense guidance !!! That's what we get from J. Peterson !! Thanks with all our hearts ❣️❣️❣️❣️
I didn't have the motivation or maturity to take care of responsibilities in education right after high school , so I joined the military. It forced me to prioritize my life and helped me to grow. Although I initially planned to only stay four years and then go to college, I ended up staying for 22 years. I found full-time employment after retiring and began school a few years later. It was a whole new game this time--my focus and dedication to goals allowed me to complete a STEM bachelor and master's degrees in only fours years, both with high honors--all while still working full-time. I planned a 'front load' method where I would work the hardest on the first three days of the week and finish all coursework by Friday. I rarely had to spend any weekends studying or completing assignments. Self-discipline is the key and I am so thankful of my life lessons in the military of responsibility and accountability. Dr. Peterson's point about writing cannot be more true. I have been complimented on my ability to write clearly and provide analysis of complex problems. I am on track to reach senior positions in the near future because of my communication skills. It pays--literally.
thank you for posting this! I've never heard of a "front load"-method, but it sounds very interesting and useful to me!
Oh man I've been thinking about joining a military academy since the start of high school (now I'm at last year in college) for the exact same reason. I don't know what to do with my life in the future, I just want someone to forcefully change my habits but I feel so useless and got social anxiety that I think they're gonna reject me from the entrance. I really wanna join the military
What tips would you give to a 19 year old who didnt get in collge right after graduating :(
@@silverbowftw5225 hey, take a look in programing my dude. There's a lot of udemy courses that are cheap and if you make a good portifolio a work with good pay is waiting for you. If you like to pursue this career, of course.
@@silverbowftw5225 Get a SKILL. A trade, IT Certs (CompTIA A+, etc), if you really want the college route go to community college first (cheaper too)
For those who need a reminder: the question to ask yourself is, "What remarkably stupid things am I doing on a regular basis to absolutely screw up my life?" My answers are: I have an erratic sleep schedule; I don't exercise much anymore; I don't eat as many healthy foods as I should, and I eat unhealthy ones; I don't go out with friends very much; I have a decade-long addiction to pornography; my attention to hygiene has been spotty; and I allowed my relationships with family members to turn sour because I have a bad temper and I'm generally unwilling to be accepting of them. Anyone who is willing to admit their stupid things, or would like to relate to mine, please leave a reply.
i agree with the sleep schedule, porn and food. most days i rarely eat anything because i am too lazy to get up and spend time making food. however my relationship with my family is in good stance since i will drop whatever im doing and help them if they even need the slightest thing. i feel like i value them more than myself and thats bad, i should feel the same way about myself as i do about them. also my social life is a trainwreck, which is also very unfortunate
Dr. Liam A. Dye right here with ya. friends? what friends?! I have no social life at all. I never figured out social skills growing up. I'm always pissing people off. I could complement them and they'd go on a tirade. it's happened too many times for me to even remember. I've been fired from damn near 15 different jobs in the past four years for having a bad attitude. I feel like everyone I talk to is describing themselves when they tell me how they perceive me. I don't get it. I always just crawl into my imaginary cave and move on. wish it were different. sucks being that guy nobody wants around. oh well.
Spending hours on social media and youtube. It's an addiction.
Haven’t seen my grandma in months, bad sleep schedule, don’t eat healthy as i would want, i procrastinate way too often, don’t have a hobby,
Everything exactly. Help
I heard the first line about wasting time on youtube and I started working on my papers immedeately. Thx Jordan!
This is the best video I have ever seen. I have watched it so many times that I have memorized the video speech. I was feeling very unmotivated to start studying this morning. Then I simply grabbed a pen and paper and wrote down this speech from my memory. Then I felt super motivated and studied.
Wow, nice! What's your favourite part?
This guy has changed my life so much hes like a father figure
He changed mine too. He is amazing.
who else closed their eyes and imagined kermit the frog giving you a motivational speech
Swig Boi damn it lol it can’t be unheard
🤣It's comments like this that make me believe that humanity will be okay, because there are still people who think differently from the rest.
LMAO HAHAHAH
Oh no..
Almost choked on my water
'You are a bad employee and a worse boss.' So true 🔥
The writing to think. The most foundational piece of information I have heard in a while. Invaluable
Our professor showed this to us to start his lecture. I'm thankful he did. The first time I've learned something useful at university. Teachers are great influencers. If you are one, think differently, teach differently, escape the norm and make a difference to change the thinking of your students. It will influence them and their environment.
You have a great teacher👍🏻
What lecture is this video from, can you link me to it?
I just don’t understand why the teachers at my university are dull and boring. I’ve been in school for four years and I’ve only had one great professor who taught us things many professors don’t even do. I’ve learned a lot of things that are different from the standard textbook in this class and I just wish that there were more teachers like that. Im starting to doubt myself and question my own purpose of going to school because the teachers there are not able to do something similar as that one class and it feels that they are rushing things. It’s like a majority of the classes want you to look at a PowerPoint that is over 50 slides long and it’s also nearly impossible to take notes at the same time because they just move so fast that they don’t even point out very important things to talk about and start conversations about. But yeah that’s how I feel about all this.
"we run at 50% capacity" *me watching youtube at 2x speed* :o
Wow I did exactly the same xD
Hello there Jerrett - seeing as you liked M2S's video above (I love their videos as well), I would really appreciate your thoughts on mine? I am in the same motivation niche and I am trying to improve my videos, so would love your opinion - do you think you could take 2 mins to let me know what you think? Of course, if you like what you see and you want to sub that would be absolutely amazing! Let me know and I can reply when you do 😄 All the best, MM
@@MotivationMood I just watched your video PUSH. Pretty good motivation. My suggestion would be to have the music swell up near the end instead of be the same throughout. I listen to daily motivation on Spotify and that works great for workouts. Also noticed you’ve got yourself some subscribers and aren’t posting anymore. Don’t let them down dude, keep posting. Maybe start posting on Spotify too bc it’s easier to listen to during a workout. Also less effort bc there’s no video to worry about. Looking forward to more of your vids, never stop never stopping!
Jordan Peterson is a absolute beast and i really like how he sees the world, thank you for this great video!
The last-minute of this video is what hit me the most. I'm doing this right now.
I'm 44 years old, lost my job in March, fell in a spot called "Stuck" and have fell into a horrible depression. I waste an abundance of time watching KZhead and Netflix and thankfully I ran into this video. What an eye opener! Thank you very much and I'll stop wasting my time and enjoy this life I've been given.
U need job
Hows it going Michael?
Welk the Pareto distribution would say it's likely he's still watching Netflix. Success cannot exist without mediocrity. Let's hope I'm wrong
Jordan talks about this at 10:35 - 10:55
Michael Taylor how are you doing 3 months later. Truthfully?
One thing I like about Mr Peterson is that he is not going to sugarcoat his ideology to make it sync with who ever is on the opposite side. He has a very clear vision of what is right or what is not, be prepared to be blown with his honesty if you are someone who disagrees to his point because there is no way he's going to dilute his point of view to find a common ground with you . And that's perfect.
That what I have been trying to do on the past year and I have grown more haters and naysayers along the way...But hey that's a part of the process right?
@@pandulani , haters and naysayers do not watch Jordan Peterson's videos and do not have the will to change its lives.
@@luizgoerck_ Nicely said. The more the ignorance, the more the dogmatism.
This speech was so insiring and it really made me face my life. I know so many things that I could do but I have no idea why I don't. This is a lot to take in but I hope that this will actually have a good impact on my life. I think Jordan Peterson for forcing me to take a look at my life and opening my eyes.
5:06 - Very kind and empowering words.
"You have to realize that you're not your own servant. You're someone that you have to negotiate with. You're someone that you want to present the opportunity of having a good life to...and that's hard for people because they don't like themselves very much." That line almost brought tears to my eyes. This man is dropping gems. God bless you Jordan Peterson.
Once I heard it, I literaly gasped, rewinded it, heard it once more and a tear rolled down my face. Just because of how painfully true that is.
After I lost my father to cancer one day, out of nowhere, i was really depressed for a really long time crying myself to sleep everyday multiple times a day, just sitting home all day and didn't do anything, ignored everything and all responsibilities. Then I found this video, this man spoke to me, it was very hard to push myself out of that vicious cycle I was stuck in, but this video and Jordan Peterson were the only reasons i could actually push through that phase Big thank you for this channel and for Jordan Peterson, I never thought that I would need guidance
I hope you’re better now :(
@@jameswhiteguy4887 Much better, thank you
@@yousifmq I lost my father as well to cancer, im a year and few months in. Be cautious, know when you need to reach out to someone. Im sure this has been rough through covid, know your support system. The phase is just a wave, and theres more than one wave.
@@Headless_Hooman you are right thanks for the response
Headless_Hooman i lost my father to cancer when i was 12 (20 now). Keep your heads up guys. The pain never goes away, but as time goes on you’ll see the purpose in the pain. Make sure to tell everyone you love them often, leave this world a better place than when you came. ❤️
Oh, God. This man is very wise. I wish I had a teacher like him at high school. Wow, imagine how different my life was.
I´ll be watching this monthly to get clarity again!
This video is the turning point in my life. Thanks Jordan
Solve Everything yeah. ..as everyone is human, and a day everyone procrastinates... Except the most powerful minded guy who is like 1 in Trillion.. Huh
@Solve Everything not with that attitude
@Solve Everything son you'll achieve nothing in life if you're jealous at someone's transformation
@@Aditya-dw4kz your right.
only few questions: what in our society is actually called productivity? does it fit to the imaginations of what productivity SHOULD be? how is society organised in this context? isnt it this "productivity" of the society, that kills all life on this planet in full awareness of it? so, is this self-optimisation in this society an expression of our pure ideology? is jordan peterson in context of our actual society an ideologist?
Oh boy, I hate scheduling. I never meet my requirements, and I always feel like not having one makes me more adaptable, yet at the same time, the way it is now, I always procrastinate until the very last moment. So you know what? After watching this, I will get myself a schedule. And I swear I will stick to it, and I will make myself love every single moment of it
Good for you man! Just setting up a google calendar and putting in everything that is important to be done by certain dates and booking in activities that I would like to do helps me so much! I never delete things from my calendar either, I only move them, that way I end up doing everything I need to do and everything I want to do. Eventually the calendar gets so crowded I'm forced to get up and do the things I keep putting off, and nothing gets forgotten. Let us know how your schedule works out!
Don't MAKE yourself love it, put love into how you make it. By doing this you will love it.
keep us updated man
Make sure to make the list manageable. So don't put "Learn German" on your list, because you will never start. Instead, break it up into chunks and say e.g. "Learn 5 German words" and go from there. And here Learning German is just an example, obviously.
@@Frank-hw3fd I'm form germany and and finely I want to start realy learn english, to connet to more people. And I think tp speak good english is very nice for you job too. So go on guys lets meke our lives better. ^^
I watched this and completely broke down for the first time as a helplessly weak minded failing engineering student nearly 6 years ago. I watched this every single day for months. I suffered forward for years because of this video’s message. In my final semester I finally achieved a 4.0, got a job, and graduated last week. Please take this video seriously, It just might change your life too.
When I first listened to JP, I kind of hated the guy. He seemed too conservative and arrogant for my taste. But he's really grown in me. I may not agree with him on every single point, but I've come to respect him, he's a good guy and he's helped me grow as a person.
I feel bad for the people who gave this video a thumbs down. Jordan Peterson is trying to give you advice so you can help yourself , be happy and successful and you people never listened for whatever reason and just clicked thumbs down. Give it a full listen and forget the BS politics in your life. Think about yourself for a moment and listen to the words. There is something for everyone in this.
Oh too bad *thumbs down*
they are all stubborn in their ways and resent the fact that they are useless because they are lazy and unmotivated to do anything with their lives and they hate this fact
There is always people who will have a negative actions against everything and anything even if its good for them, there is no fix for them, there will be a hater always.
The message is really good and a lot of people can take note of the points. I too am beginning to understand how valuable time is. My problem with this video is that he just gives it in a way a preacher would do, and that is what I greatly dislike. Imagine everything he says, but without his intonations, without his skewed examples, without repeating the same thing over and over again. While there is a lot of truth. When something feels inspiring the moment you experience it it mostly boils down to a feeling. And while it helps some to act; it also puts you in an entire mood. I don't like others trying to motivate when they are clearly doing it in a preachy style. It's a very American way of communication which, surprisingly, I'm not really fond of. The comment section is also one who doesn't even THINK that people who dislike this are sensible human beings. And that was the nail in the coffin for me. If there is no room to speak about a subject differently than his preachings worked. You must be inspired or - as he puts it - you'll end up in hell.
you really went off the rails 😂
"if you could think and speak and write, you are absolutely deadly" this was always an absract idea in my head. thank you for giving it words i can repeat while i am not willing to make constant effort.
Something along these lines is what made me change my career plans. In school I was always driven. Knew what I was talking about, put the effort in and it showed in results and knowing what you did made something felt good. But then I got into university, procrastination set in followed by depression. The reason? It was the wrong degree. I put it all down to covid, like maybe I wasn’t getting into it as the access to the resources was online but no. It was the wrong subject for me. I realised the specialisation was of zero interest to me so although the degree has value the skills learned felt irrelevant. I’ve since found another degree and the motivation that comes with learning something that you have some interest in and the skills feel valuable and apply to more things than the specificity of itself is helpful. Question everything, find the root cause of your lack of motivation and create a path through it. It’s not easy and it takes courage, it’s hard to do something that’s considered wrong but if it makes you happy it’s what is right. It’s hard to start something different, but it can be worth it if it’s clear what you are doing is what you want. Just make sure you are doing something, something other than nothing is key. You can relax in your hobbies be it gaming, reading, partying. But make sure it’s not the only thing you look forward to and that it’s not detrimental to yourself. Because if you don’t the realisation of when that F hits you the resit, firing or when you are lying there like f my life it will. Jordan Peterson is one of the better people to take ideas from, not steal them but consider them take what’s good to you. And leave the bad behind. He went through depression he knows what procrastination is like. And so do many others. Just make sure you find a direction it may take time and you may be wrong but so long as you rectify it, you can get where you want to go and who you want to be. As long as that is a state of mind.
This is one of my favorite lectures of all time. "Whatever turns your crank man" 😆 He phrases it in such a way that basically says 'You have nothing to lose if you assume you get NOTHING done today.'
"You have to negociate with yourself and not tyranize yourself" I felt that...
Feel like that's the trap I fell into. Forbid myself everything and became very clear and focused for a while. Then I hit rockbottom boredom cuz I'm not able to fill my time with fulfilling activities.
I feel like he is the father I never knew, and that is not to take credit from the great job my mother did, it is just recognizing that he speaks truth and lessons as if he were speaking to his own child. Dr. Peterson has a lot of love, and I wish him nothing but prosperity and greatness. May his journey impact the world and his experience in life be greatly rewarding and triumphant.
This video is so packed with wisdom an substantive content... I lost my words watching this. For sure I'll rewatch this, make notes and start acting and planning!
he must learned so much hard true from his patients’ story, not many people got the chance to know numerous honest and true real life stories and feelings, those energy are powerfully.
