I think DrJBPs' speech seems kindof improvised but very articulate, like Hendrixs' guitar playing, and the ability to keep talking/playing continuously while keeping it interesting and various. Philosophically and lyrically I think there are similarities, especially J Hendrixs later songs revolved around themes like communication, humanity, perception, justice, freedom (songs like Freedom and Straight Ahead are good examples.) Musically and tonally, the speech is sophisticated but also expressive and/or excited/exciting and content is covered in an air of humour and humility, willingly vulnerable to being proven wrong or to have another argument/question be heard and given space, just as JHendrixs held-back to let other musicians solo/riff. Being the hendrix of talking complicated based on what level you see Hendrix on, a shallow perspective sees: "a rockstar, virtuoso, turned loose by fame, money, partying and drugs, which took his life in the end" but a more close look at the history and what his views and opinions were and who he had got caught up with shows him to be: "a very kind and polite person who was also very trusting, which got him into situations with ill-intended people who milked his work and probably are the same ones who killed him in his NYC apartment after he went his own way. His last concerts were at Peace Festivals in Hawaii and Western Europe which were attacked by motorbike gangs." There are many differences, huge differences, and the similarities are interesting, but depends what aspect or level of DrJBP and JHendrix

"you can kill people with excess kindness just as you can kill them with excess agression" true that!

Well I think it’s cute is that he seems to almost touch upon some pretty logical parts… Then he will pivot and start the stream of consciousness bullshit all over again. It’s not surprising that this man is mentally unwell. I mean look at him. His shirt is wrinkled his hair is disheveled he’s got the dead look in his eyes he’s constantly gesticulating with his hands while rambling incoherently. And just because he sprinkles some academic jargon and verbosity within his stream of consciousness doesn’t mean that his points are valid or even remotely relevant. Not to mention his arrogance is quite telling. He dismisses things that he doesn’t agree with as “rubbish“ and here’s the thing… He doesn’t prove as to why he views what he doesn’t agree with as “rubbish”. It’s hilarious to me that people actually think he’s an intellectual or even remotely intelligent. I’ve worked in a psych ward. This man would definitely be a patient in a psych ward.

This is bullshit. Human health is impacted by systemic problems within society more than imaginary moral actions. We respond to the stresses of our outside world and the negative impacts those can have on our mental as well as physical health. Take Peterson for example. He responded to the pressures of the outside world by becoming addicted to benzodiazepines. And instead of exercising some kind of moral action by getting sober and getting help for his addiction he decided to flee to Russia to be put in a medically induced coma. As of anything following his rationale I would say that indicates a moral failing. And I would be very careful about following the ramblings of a man who tries to prop himself up as some kind of paragon of moral virtue when he fails to exercise that moral virtue himself.

Don't ever doubt your ability to become better. You must continue to strive for a better part of you, and also be willing to let go of things that hold you back or blind you on your journey to embracing your true potential. Don't allow your old thoughts to trick you into believing you can't do what is necessary, you can, we are all given the will to make our place in this world exactly what we want it to be. I have noticed that when I am doing different things to grow as a person, to become a better, more affective, and knowledgeable person, I seem to have many stumbling blocks littering my path out of nowhere. I recognize this as a spiritual darkness that doesn't want me to attain the wisdom and fortitude to withstand the meaningless bullshit, stress and heartache. By recognizing all of the above, I have found it gets easier most of the time, when I take a good look within myself and see that I have come a long way from where I started. Always take time to look at how far you have made it from where you began in your journey. Be grateful for your progress, embrace hardship, and most of all remember, WHAT DOESN'T KILL YOU, MAKES YOU STRONGER!

And not surprising he rambles and talks in circles like he’s drunk though he’s completely sober. He is what is known as a dry drunk.

a ‘glitch in the matrix’ perhaps! ;)

Just wanted to say thank you to Dr. Peterson for helping me find my place and purpose in the world. In a lot of ways I'm still searching. But I have aimed at something( a star)...moved towards it, and reconfigured my course as I get closer to it. I havn't literally cleaned my room yet, but I've tried learning and applying little micro routines, making sure I eat somewhat healthily, having little micro routines, and generally not letting anyone get in the way of my goals (I'm fairly disagreeable). I went from a nihilistic 20 something with no job, no education, and extreme depression to working, attaining my college degree, finally about to move out of my house to an apt (with my girlfriend who also live at home), and feeling pretty God damned unstoppable. All I had to do was try. And I still have an extreme amount to do and work on. Fuck yeah!!

How wonderful! Amazing. Dr. Peterson is such an amazing person. You're proof!

I think that Jordan was profound in the way that he explained the inner and outer psychodynamic patterns that categorize how the human psyche manifests negatively. Much of it is a direct result of moral and ethical depravity within ourselves and the relationships that we have with others. The sad and ironic part about it is, it's like a social norm but at the same time a taboo because we are not willing to stand up for what we know is right morally and ethically and know our rights as human beings! The intensity in his way of communicating and conveying it to make us understand was so heavy that I felt the energy pulsing through my device. Awesome Jordan and thank you!

brilliant mind

I can't believe how much valuable information this man delivers... It's so hard to have access to such a level of knowledge and truthfulness today. Probably very few people on earth, and Peterson is one of them

"The family systems people localize pathology in the family, and they think about the individual as a unit in a dynamical system that's composed of the family. And I have clients who are no way near insane as their family is--but they're the people who've been targeted with mental illness, because that's convenient for everyone involved. Right? It's really annoying if all six of you are crazy because, you know, you're never gonna get out of that. So its often convenient to identify the noisiest complainer as the psychopathological individual and to scapegoat them. Then of course they look like they're ill too, because they're so bloody stressed that they fall apart in four different ways. But the locale of the problem isn't actually in them, even though they're part of the system that's not functioning properly. Even though you can make them feel better by giving them anti-depressants, well at least sometimes (and that's because they have non-specific effects)." Yup. He's genius.

Well he suffers from depression and so does his daughter people stigmatized mental illness as "crazy" but some people are just moody to varied degrees for various reasons. Some people take after one parent more than another too which causes conflict I took more after my Father for example and my Mother resented that they split up when I was young too but still always the snide remarks about how philosophical I am and where did I get that from etc. Since I have two older brothers she probably expected her little girl to just go shopping and gossip with her and I had little interest in doing either I just liked listening to music and reading books more like Dad than her he built things and was more creative than her too.

Wonderfully brilliant! Love JP's style of teaching. Pulls me in everytime. Like a great piece of music that never gets old. Thank you always JP.

I have listened to this very intently while going on an hour long walk outside. In class, whrn I was a you lad, I could not even pay attention to my teachers for 20 minutes straight.

His most underrated lecture by far.

I miss this JP Still love current JP But I want more of this JP

I'm really encouraged to see that this kind of stuff is viewed so much. This stuff is incredibly useful and interesting

I love this man and his way of understanding what's goin on. So different and special and well-thought out.

This man has been instrumental in my personal,rhetorical,philosophical,and theological development.

It's not the easiest thing to describe why Dr. Peterson has been so helpful to me but I think it's his ability to sum up and digest so much psychological information so quickly and articulate it so plainly that it helps organize all my personal baggage. Life is busy it's easier to just act without worrying so much about why. His lectures and books have been a sort of fast track into understanding myself. That is such a trite term but it really helps with regulating my emotions. If I'm mad I can analyze why I'm mad. And then determine if it is a valid response. It doesn't get rid of shame or guilt but it helps to trim it away if it is unnecessary.

This will always be my favorite JP video and that says a lot.

Oh, yeah!! One of his best!People might think they’re reducing their internal entropy by avoiding dealing with the truth of their self/situation but they’re actually compounding it. Our society has been in an unspoken complicity of the avoidance of personal responsibility. This lack of accountability IS our social disease. Honestly should be given the highest value.

I am not psychotic nor have I ever taken a drug in my life, but when I was being terrorised by my family, I hallucinated a small devil, over the side of the bed. It only lasted a split second. I was rescued, and I've never had a repeat performance.

"Your head is either your brain or your psyche, both of which fit uncomfortably in the same skull" there's all sorts of little one or two sentence gems like this throughout his lectures that blow your mind on their own

I was nodding my head in approval and adoration during this whole presentation.

Wow... what a lecture! That conclusion is quite thought provoking. It’s interesting to come to this lecture after listening to his others.

This man has totally changed my life. Ive spent hours and hours listening to him and ive faced a pretty big shadow, developed my personality. Understand trauma and how to work through it. How to parent, how to deal with malevolence and how to be brave on face of it. He made sense of my religious upbringing i can go on and on. So greatful i have the opportunity to listen to his lectures because id never have access to this level of education without it, i find reading hard as dyslexic but this is the best way for me to tk in the information. He should win some kind of award for his way of educating the masses at all levels in society.

The man has a courage that is contagious. A very dangerous man. They will try to destroy him.

I worry about that a great deal. Let's pray that it doesn't happen. But he's aware of this and is taking *some precautions.

I am new to watching Jordan Peterson's lectures, and I find him to be very sincere and passionate about all the topics he chooses to lecture on, all his body language and his delivery is very animated with sincerity, I don't agree with everything he says, but I love watching him and listening to him

thank you for sharing JP video's, its tag now so I can come back to watch again to watch the parts I've missed understand.

@49:00 this one minute of examples: 1. made me start laughing out loud in a formal office, as if I were listening to Dave Chappelle or Chris Rock live (but this is *not* comedy). 2. made me think, "Is this stuff in a handbook somewhere? That's the recipie my spouse deployed, which nearly erased me entirely." 3. Then expanded vertically, "Wait, that's my childhood, my father's upbringing-by-absence, the training making me suitable for endless abuse I'd misunderstand as a call to caretaking.

This man is so friggin brilliant. He's gonna go down in the history books as the Albert Einstein of Sociology, mark my words!

Such a gift for us this man! What a brilliance and very precise and eloquent articulation. Tell the truth! That was his guide to become like this.

Love the coat of arms sunshine behind Peterson. Light of reason above his head. May it be a rising sun.

20:30 "Freud concentrated on psychopathology... Jung by contrast concentrated on individuation, which was form of moral development as a marker of mental health"

I am quite amazed whenever I listen to Jordan, just how well articulated he is. Even when unprepared, he seems to be extremely economic with his words. I wish I could develop that level of verbal mastery.

I would love to have Peterson to talk to every day for a while, his friends are really fortunate.

The final statements are astounding in their simplicity and accuracy. 🎯

I fucking love this man. What a speech. Never heard this.

Actually finding out that Panic Attacks were common helped me tremendously in my teens. Realizing I wasn't going crazy, and knowing it was fairly common helped. I would get them without any discernible trigger also, so I couldn't figure out what was causing them. Come to find out, I was completely unaware of underlying stress, is that I apparently have a high tolerance for it, that this stress was building up which resulted in a release all at once. Before I would have a Panic Attack just wondering if I would have a Panic Attack. I finally got all of that under control, but being aware of what was happening surely helped me get to a place of no more Panic Attacks and much more.

Thank you for this wonderful lecture.

This is one of those lectures that is so engaging I can hardly stand pressing pause.

Excellent! Finally someone addresses these profoundly important issues! We can only hope that the psychological, and psychiatric communities are listening... and catch up. @47:00 going forward, thank you, thank you! Brilliant!

Everytime I watch Peterson I learn so much about myself I feel like I’ve been growing a cyclops in my head over 10 years of smoking weed everyday and recently I quit and ive been dealing with a lot of mental issues like strange and disturbing thoughts nothing that stops me from living my life but just enough to annoy disturb or give me anxiety. Once I thing I have the thoughts conquered they manifest in a new way and I have to deal with them again. I’m going to keep working through it as best I can hopefully I can squash this cyclops into the ground one day.

Only thing that stops me from smoking weed is not having the money for at any given time or the unavailability of it. Otherwise, I much prefer to have some smoke in my life. Is it a crutch? Perhaps. But I've smoked consistently for the last 25 years and I don't really see it as a drawback. It helps my anxiety a lot and generally helps me more than it hinders. I'm of the ilk that believes pot doesn't truly make people lazy or lack ambition, but can definitely make a genuinely lazy and non-ambitious person much more so. Too many examples of extremely high level productive people who also smoke weed regularly to say this is the case. I think we're all individuals and we all act and react differently according to our own composition and chemical makeup. All things in moderation. So long as your days are productive, I don't see any issue with cutting loose with a bit of marijuana. But that's just me. I don't "advocate" weed across the board by any means, but I do believe it helps a lot of people cope with certain issues. I'd say it's more of a habit than an addiction. My smoking cigarettes is far more of a crutch than weed has ever been.

I'm really amazed by him in one sense, and In another sense I also get vibes of a young George Carlin. That is not an insult, but a compliment because they both are people of exceptional character and strikingly similar thoughts about the universe despite their conclusions leading to starkly different places. Thankfully, Dr. Peterson doesn't go down the nihilistic route despite knowing all the limitations of human behavior.

The difference as i see it between the two personalities lies primarily in the belief, or lack thereof, in a higher power. Carlin was a died in the wool atheist and definitely showed hardcore nihilistic tendencies. Peterson maintains his connection to the mystery of the universe through his faith in God. But yes, i see your point. Their logic works in much the same way. Very dry and matter of fact. Cynical but forward thinking and ironic.

I agree with your clarification. It's why I appreciate Dr. J. Peterson so much. (One of the reasons, anyway.) I guess my only point being that I'm glad George Carlin spoke up on certain issues (war) at a time when most entertainers wouldn't go anywhere near the truths he was talking about. After all, though Carlin was hardly wealthy by Hollywood standards, he could have "enjoyed" just being a druggie, etc.and not doing HIS important work which reached lots of people at an important time.

Gaslighting. Making you look like the bad guy. The same thing had happened to me. Insane, cruel deceptive family, psychopath mother who divided everyone in the family by triangulation. End result is that no-one is in touch anymore - I believe so we wouldn't come together to all figure her out. Three out of four family members who tried to commit suicide. Both parents and siblings invalidated me for years, lying and continual attempts to distort my reality. I was the truth teller in the family, and they all hated it.

Thanks I'm Binging JP at moment and this channel is a big help

Love hearing this guy speak

The point on lying as a major cause of psychopathology is so true. Example: pathological narcissists, with their confabulations, embellishments and lying, and think about how others suffer from narcissistic abuse. Lying also eats narcissists from inside, hence their inescapable sense of inner emptiness.
