Ha, it probably took me 40 hours (turbovovlo), I had to stop to cry a couple times. call me a pussy, I dare ya

I'm here. I'm on the other side. I started watching Peterson clips, then I read 12 rules for life, then I watched the entire 2017 personality course, then I read 12 rules for life again, then I watched the biblical lectures, now I've just wrapped up the Maps of Meaning lectures. I've also watched all three of his interviews with Joe Rogan. I'm 22. I've never been this invested in a pursuit in my life, I've never felt this much meaning in my life. I did all that in the span of a year -- I started with the clips in November of 2018. I'm a completely different person from who I was a year ago. Just staying the truth made a massive change. Understanding the human condition and the reasons behind individual sovereignty, that gave so much positive meaning to my life. I used to suffer from bad anxiety and horrible social anxiety, both of those are mostly gone now. They still exist within me, and those shadows haven't gotten weaker -- it's me who got stronger. Strong enough to conquer, overcome, fight. To be my own damn hero. I also got my first intimate relationship after two years of solitude, and the first relationship ever where I'm completely honest with a person and feel zero guilt around them. For the first time, I don't feel a hint of inadequacy; she knows my flaws. I know hers, we make each other better. I pay attention to who she is and who I am around her, that's helping me grow so much. Helping us both grow. I'm becoming a catalyst for positive change in people around me. I also got what I can very well consider my first job ever. Definitely my first professional opportunity in the field I want to dedicate my life to. And I feel it deep in my bones that if I had lied just once; if I had cheated just once throughout my entire interaction with my future boss, he would have never given me this chance. I wasn't someone I would want to hire a year ago, but I am now. Thank you, Dr. Peterson. Truly. For all your work, for all you've done. I'll continue to learn. I'm reading 12 rules for life for a third time now, I don't think I'll finish it this time. I feel its time for a break, to let ideas stew, incubate, develop. Then I'm thinking of tackling Campbell or Dostoevsky. But this whole journey started thanks to you. I still have to carry my own cross, but now at least I have a map to help me in my journey. That makes all the difference.

There are so many times I have been talking to people about this stuff and just burst into tears seeing how different my life is since following this guy. I don't advertise to the world what I am doing, I kinda keep to myself. Talking about it still makes me emotional. Man what a wreck I was. Point I am trying to make is that there is definitely some truth in what he is saying. I have undergone a self transformation, started working out, started caring for my wife more, changed careers, and I am on my way to starting my own business. I am a completely different person. It is crazy to see my life drastically changed since taking more responsibility and how much better I feel.

These lectures are like great literature: you read it at school and say, "Well, okay", because you are still not old enough. Then you read it after life has punched you a few times such that you barely made it in one piece, and then the same literature hits you really hard and you say, "Ah, this is what they mean it is classic!" I think that the depth of what Jordan Peterson delivers in these lectures cannot be fully appreciated by students; they are still not old enough. But having lived about a half of my life and watching these lectures now, I have grown a lot as a person because I recognize many of his "abstract" ideas of good, evil, sacrifice as specific and personal life battle-scars. And those experiences make so much more sense now - they do have a meaning. I am sure many middle-aged men and women could relate to this; it is never late to grow. Thank you, Dr. Peterson!

Dr. Peterson, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the hard work you've done. I have awakened my ability to write poetry about the same time I started to listen to your lectures (when the controversy around pronounced made you quite popular). So, rather than being verbose, I would like to dedicate this poem I wrote to you: Dive into the waters of the unknown , plunge into the depths never shown. Find the golden orb of wisdom and escape your own mind's prison. Drive a wedge between yourself and you based on what is false what is true. Build up an edifice of monstrous strength, go as far as any damn reasonable length. If you are weak and overtly nice, you shall pay life's harshest price. A weakling, even one protected by all, can't bear to pay any single heavy toll. Strength comes when confronting dragons willingly and with sharpened talons. Perception serves to orient the soul so it can rise after the fall.

Dear Dr Peterson, "The Brothers Karamazov" is my favourite book, and Mitya has always been my most favourite character, I know him very well in my heart. In your lecture you mentioned the dialogue between Ivan and Aleksey regarding the great inquisitor. I don't know if the translation gets it right, I read it in Russian as it is my mother tongue. The main point of this story was whether or not it is worth to have a great hunky dory world with the cost of one single child's tear. It is not of course, and Mitya's story in the book represents it. I feel it is right. Lots of gratitude and my best wishes, Ana

It's amazing watching him work over his thesis again and again, the structure is tighter and more elegant every time.

This channel was one of the greatest things that have ever happened to me. Thanks you all for making this happen.

He talks about the psychological and evolutionary origins of racism and uses the worst example he could relate to the students: the nazis. One interesting insight he provided is that a lot of people seem to think bigotry is based on fear, but he's found it actually has more of a correlation with orderliness and is based on disgust, which is actually worse I think.

Update on your life

The last 10 minutes gave me an epiphany. Then I went on to listen to the 12 rules of life and watched all the maps of life lectures. Forever grateful

This was the most eye opening lecture series that has ever been taught, in a manner of speaking. So, anyways, that's that. Thank you Doctor Peterson. My mind is opened, and I have focused my aim to the highest possible target. Your message will transform this world.

It's good to know that I'm not the only person who watched an entire college lecture on youtube. This is possibly the least watched of his lectures, which is a shame. It is quite possibly the best. The last 20 minutes of this lecture is extremely powerful.

I'm from Brazil and sometimes can be difficult to apply the notion that we must align ourselves with our own higher aim in order to progress in life. Takes a whole lot of courage, because there are so much we don't know, and so much we can't even grasp. but the inconceivable amount of videos and audios that you made availble have given me the tools to realize the dragon that is always behind me, and the weapons that a needed to cut the one in front of me in pieces and make the world out of it. Thank you for that! The capacity to organize, articulate and apply the knowledge that lies inside of me is changing everything. So, that's it. Thank you for sharing this life changing content. And thank god (and the internet) that I can receive it, understand it and absorve it. p.s.: I have so much more to say, but I can't yet articulate everything in english. and please do a lecture on taoism ☯

What a journey! This felt like a rite of passage - thank you Dr Peterson!

I want thank you Dr. Peterson for this life altering lecture series. I'm a 56 year old man who had been drifting about pretending I knew so much about the world. What I actually knew was so disconnected and arbitrary, just snippets and half truths. I now have a basis, a substrate for actual meaning and bit of a toolbox for having meaningful conversations. Thanks indeed!

1:22:31 I was brought up in a residential school. There I spent my late childhood and by the time I came out I was an adult. The school was highly orderly, everyday and every activity conformed to a time table, every meal was planned. It gave me a conviction that the world is also orderly and there are concrete grounds to adjudge things. But soon I found I was entirely wrong. I couldn't even decide or articulate what is TRUTH. I was in CHAOS. This course has clearly given me some order, a rock to stand on. I'm grateful to you, Mr. Peterson.

I'm 45 years old. I watched and really listened to all 12 lectures of Maps of meanings. It's so true to comprehend. If the Maps of Meanings lectures were available or at least, a possible coarse In high-school I really believe I would be better off today. You could probably tell by my grammar.

It's pleasure to listen these lectures. English is not my first language so I cannot fully understand whole lectures. But, I know 30 hours of lectures changed my entire belief system and destroyed my nihilistic attitude to life.

His lectures are like a performance, I don't even have time to think about anything else than what he's saying, and rightfully so.

Definition of a Great Mann!!! He definitely has integrity, great communicator, very intelligent, wise, has a great deal of patience, motivator, tell it like it is if you accept it, knowledge of history.....what a breath of fresh air to hear a man I can learn a lot from!!!

Love how you talk with your hands. :D (I'm Italian. We do this.)

I've now listened to his entire 2017 Personality course, his entire Religion lecture series, many of his 12 Rules for Life lectures, and now all of 2017 Maps of Meaning, and I think this one here (number 12) is one of his best. There's more gold in 2 and half hours here than people often get from a year of full-time university study. What a professor!

Pain & suffering; a tiny price to pay for living & most of all love because it’s all worth it!!! Happiness & love include some grief. Pain & suffering; both benefit growth in humans. Introduces us to humility, a good friend to have around to combat our arrogance. Absolutely love you to pieces Jordan!!! 👍🏻😘🙋🏻‍♀️

I just completed this whole series and I'm literally crying 🥺 I got answers to the questions that always kept bothering me . I feel so glad that there's someone like in this world. You're my life saviour seriously. I don't have enough words to thank you Sir. You're ultimate Hero 🙏🎉🔥❤️😭🙇‍♀️

Great comment!!!

Every time I watch these lectures, I almost go into a flow state, deeply engaged. So I wondered why that is. Why am I interested in this? Do I instinctively know that this is vital wisdom? Do I have an abstract value system that's similar to everyone else here? Is my archtype speaking to me? Do I decide that these lectures are TOOL for my frame of reference? For survival? Probably all of it. My eyes are pointing at the goal of listening to you. And my note books are record of your wisdom passed down to me. I've never encountered any sort of content that gave me more MEANING and WILLINGNESS to try to thrive in this unforgiving world.

Listening to this while cleaning my room and i enjoy every second of it.

I can’t believe I just watched all 12 lectures for fun, took notes and enjoyed it better than Netflix . Jordan you rock !

2:19:45 -> The End YOLO! Total goosebumps overload.

I have been starting and then stopping many things for a long time... for many reasons, one of them being that I started way to many all the time... But now Im happy that the first I concluded was hearing/watching all these 12 lectures. Thank you Mr. Peterson, the only man I truly admire in todays world.

OK just finished all 12. Now all over again to get even more truth bombs.

Dr. Peterson speaks of those who are “too far gone.” I pray this isn’t the case for you. I’m on the cusp. Most of my life is already behind me and I caused a lot of suffering to the ones I love the most, my children. Mostly out of ignorance, but I failed to make the few choices right when I knew better. My children are grown now. It’s hard work just to salvage what little is left and all the years of Narcissistic abuse have taken their toll. It’s day by day and too many days I’m not even sure I’ll make it to the next. Realizing my part of the responsibility I own by not always making the right choices is a bitter pill. Sometimes it feels like a lethal pill. But ignorance certainly isn’t bliss. I’m grateful for learning and I’m so grateful Dr. Peterson is teaching so many who still have the chance to turn their lives and their families lives around before it’s too late. 🙏

I really don't know what I have learnt from this course, but I have a feeling I have learnt something that will help me become a good individual, thank you Jordon b Peterson for uploading this lectures.

Thank you Dr. Peterson for sharing your deep understanding of this material, and making it available for free online. Your method of combining it with aspects of psychology and illuminating it with real life experience enabled me to understand and unpack so much more of the philosophical content. I hope that the Universities start to include this content for all Bachelor of Arts programs as we seem to be in desperate need of a deeper understanding of our cultural and intellectual heritage.

I miss my online classmates. Is that weird? Feels it's a community listening here. Gives me hope and good outlook for the future.

Life changing. I'm incredibly grateful to live in a society where such knowledge is available to whoever seeks it. That final lecture did an amazing job at connecting the dots and summarizing the fundamental questions raised throughout the series. Thank you for working so hard and diligently.

holy crap that last hour of the lecture was insanely deep. thank you for everything you’ve contributed to my life dr peterson.

He left it all in there! Thank you, Dr. Peterson. This series of lectures has been life-changing and practically eye-opening. I have personally been able to find answers to questions which I was looking for quite some time. Thanks for giving me the tools to live my life is less suffering and a more meaningful way. Thanks for giving the hard truths. Thanks for helping humanity. Thanks for making me humble in an uncanny way which I don't think I would be able to articulate. Thanks for everything you do. You are a GEM of a person. Get well soon. Love & Respect!

This whole lecture series was fantastic but that last 10 minutes was truly something else

This was fantastic. So to conclude: you need something that you deem valuable to aim at, and in perusing that you'll not only find meaning in your life, it will protect you from falling victim to dangerous ideologies. Thank you for teaching us this valuable lesson Jordan Peterson.

What a great man, what a great lecture series. Sadly I learnt more useful tools here than was taught to me by my father, but now I know, and am very grateful. Thank you Jordan

thank you for reminding us that we are the masters of our own destiny.

This whole lecture series (and really, the ideas you have shared) has been like watching Darren Arronofsky's The Fountain (you really should check it out!) multiple times and then having the conclusion manifest itself so clearly after years of pondering its meaning. Life is suffering. Accept the burden, aim for the highest good and simultaneously transcend it. And ultimately, experience glimpses of Paradise. Thank you so much, Doctor Peterson. ❤

Bargain with the future and let your representations die instead of yourself. explain to the bloody postmodernists why they're wrong. And then you have to rescue your dead father from the belly of the whale, OBViously. And so then you'll be able to watch the video as far as I can tell. You can slay the dragon of chaos later.

"Sometimes you don't have an answer that works. You have an answer that produces the highest probability of success." The Powerful - Jordan B Peterson

Thank You Mr. Peterson. I just finish your 2017 Maps of Meaning Class and looking forward to do the authoring program and personality test. You opened my eyes. Thank you!

For those of us who don't possess the financial means to afford a seat in your classroom, these freely accessible materials are like an undeserved gift. Your lectures have helped (and are continuing to help) me improve my character and my life. Watching them has become the best part of my day. You are a truly great man.

Thank you. You changed my life with these lectures. I'm aiming at the highest possible good I can.

Early in the morning. Hubby made coffee and asked me to put music on. I put Jordan on and we both smiled. Music to our soul💕 I’ve noticed the change of my response when dealing with abusive/aggressive behaviors. I am not upset or angry anymore. Instead, I am able to figure out where the problem is from. Thank you, Jordan, you are so dear to us. 🌹

Time to sort myself out. I'll start by reflecting on what I've learned thanks to Maps of Meaning... After listening to these lectures--some more than once--I can say that Maps of Meaning has certainly changed my outlook on a number of topics. Dr. Peterson has blended psychology with mythology, religion, and philosophy in a way that I never expected. I am actually excited to learn more about Christianity--something I never thought I would feel. I used to think because it couldn't possibly be scientifically accurate, there was no value to be found. I regarded the bible as nothing but a collection of fairytales, would scoff, and then wait impatiently for my next order of fantasy novels from Amazon to arrive in the mail. I feel foolish for having not afforded it the respect and inquiry I would have with any other piece of literature. Now I see that I don't have to take what is written literally, and can use biblical stories as tools to search for 'meta-truths' and values with which to adapt to my mode of being. Moving forward, I worry that I may read into an interpretation based on something I am already searching to validate, rather than finding interpretations that are supported by multiple layers of truth. I also have doubts that I will be able to comprehend much of what is written in that daunting book, but I suppose the stories wouldn't have survived as long as they have if their meanings were immediately obvious and lacked depth. It brings me some comfort to have heard Dr. Peterson say more than once, "It took me a long time to piece this together," or when he began a lecture by saying, "Last time I offered you one interpretation of this story..." Although, on the other hand, if he struggled with these stories...good luck sunshine! Either way, I look forward to Dr. Peterson's upcoming Biblical Series lectures. I used to find the postmodernist's claim that there is no reason or truth very persuasive; I myself could find no rebuttal. Dr. Peterson's explanation of the many constraints placed upon said infinite interpretations by the mere fact that we are human was an actual, "Ah ha!" moment. Although I will need to continue thinking about this, I feel there is something deeper for me to explore here. Having recently finished reading Yuval Noah Harari's Sapiens and Jared Diamond's The Third Chimpanzee, I loved all the references to chimps. My next order from Amazon will certainly include Solzhenitsyn's The Gulag Archipelago. I also enjoyed learning about people's tendencies to be drawn towards ideology (and why it's so attractive to do so), the development of children, and necessity of embracing and then taming your inner, malevolent monster. All-in-all, these lectures were a much better use of my time than any of the insipid shit I would have wasted my time with on television or Facebook. This course was potentially life-changing. Thank you Dr. Peterson for slaving away to create such quality content, doing what you can to speak truth, and putting it out there on the internet for people like myself to benefit from.

Discovering Jordan Peterson is one of the best things in my life. Discovering him at this time is the best thing for me as I've learned more than what university can teach. I have hope in myself which I look down on very much thanks to his speech. I want to show my gratitude. Thank you!
