[TRANSCRIPT (Partial)]
One of the things you see with people, all the time, is that maybe they’re trying to stumble forward, towards their ideal, as poorly defined as it might be, but then they’re afraid, right? They’re afraid about what they might encounter, and that stops them, because fear does stop people. It freezes you, like a prey animal. People move ahead, but then they get afraid, and then they stop moving ahead, and that’s not so good. Negative emotion is a really powerful motivator, so we’re more motivated by negative emotion than positive emotion, quantitatively speaking. Quantitatively speaking, you can measure that. That’s, I think, because we can only be so happy, but we can really be suffering and dead. You have to pay more attention to the negative, and that’s bad, because the negative can stop you.
...
So then you think, ok, ‘I’m trying to make this decision. I’m going to try to do something difficult, and isn’t that terrifying.’ And then you think, ‘yeah, but wait a minute. What’s really terrifying is not doing it.’ And then you think about the cost of not doing it. In the Future Authoring Program, we have people do this little meditative exercise, which is, ok, think about your insufficiencies, by your own definition, the way that you don’t do what you know you should do-about the things that you do, that you shouldn’t do, that you know you shouldn’t do beyond a shadow of a doubt. There’s some things like that. That’s bad habits, and poor aim, and resentment, and hatred, and aggression, and unresolved conflicts, and all those things that are dementing and warping you. And then think, ok, those things get the upper hand, man. They get the upper hand, and they take you to the worst possible place you could go in the next three to five years. What exactly does that look like? And so you sketch all that out, and you think, ‘hey, I don’t want to go there.’ The next time that a temptation comes up, you think, ‘well, it’d be a lot better for me if I didn’t succumb to this temptation.’ That’s kind of weak, eh? You’d look a little better if you didn’t eat like a cheesecake a day, or something like that. That’s something, but it’s not the same as, I’m going to have diabetes, and I’m going to lose my damn leg in five years if I don’t get my eating under control. That’s motivating. So then the temptation comes along, and you think, ‘oh, how about no?’ Seriously-how about no? Not just because a higher good would be obtained if I avoided it, but because a terrible catastrophe would be averted if I didn’t.
Well, so you want to get your fear behind you, right? You want to get it behind you, where it’s pushing you forward, instead of in front of you, where it’s stopping you. You get your fear behind you, pushing you forward, by actually thinking through the consequences of not putting your life together, and that the least of those is that you waste it, and suffer. You’re going to suffer anyways, man, so you waste it, and suffer. That’s a bad deal, because, maybe, if you’re going to suffer, you could at least do something noble, glorious, upright, powerful, honourable, admirable, helpful, and difficult. That’s just so much better, and maybe that’s good enough so that you think, ‘hey, a little suffering; it’s basically worth it. At least it’s a way forward.’

@THE REAL L.C Well, Im in the system (UK) for depression and other things, but teally it's not a chemical imbalance, just a bad life circumstance - hence why I did the future programme so as to plan a way out towards a better life. And in that sense it worked - I definitely have a clear plan of action to get to where I need to go. However, my real problem is insoluable - and, yes, I was brutally honest - what I truly desire is impossible, and the next best realistic option is depressing because it is not good enough. Good enough so that I am willing to strive for it, but not good enough for me to ever believe I will be truly happy or he really motivated to obtain it.

"Suffering and not doing anything is a bad deal.. So basically if you gonna suffer you can do atleast something glorious, noble and powerful, admirable, honourable, healthful and difficult.. and that's so much better and maybe good enough that you can say 'hey you know.. little suffering it's basically worth it' atleast it's a way forward" - Jordan Peterson

This video is a perfect description of J. Peterson’s best quote “You're going to pay a price for every bloody thing you do and everything you don't do. You don't get to choose to not pay a price. You get to choose which poison you're going to take. That's it.” -J.Peterson
Just talking to my sister about something like this, starting our diet. Being healthy is hard. Being fat is hard. Pick your struggle.
Man as far as i can tell i’m gonna look back 3-5 years from now and say jordan peterson was the most forthright catalyst to many of the good things going on in my life. Its just so amazing how he demonstrates the breadth of language/thought. I love you man thank you for letting us peer into your beautiful mind/soul, you are a treasure to humanity. :)

To all of you that watched this video. I was brought up as a child to be fearless and live great fully. I had made many mistakes and when the collapse comes? I have noticed that the fracking of the moment? Is where you are able to better see threw things. As it goes in repetitions you realize that now you are making less and less mistakes. Wisdom is born. Just practice give it your best shot with out the fear of failure. It will make you! God bless Dr. Peterson
I'd recommend be careful of using fear. For me, coming from whatever you want to call my upbringing. I pushed myself for fear of going back to where I started. In all honesty, I was maybe also afraid of what success would be and to lose that. I feel that fear of having to go back to where I started kept me from taking risks. I just did my very best to get by. Not to blossom or make something of myself. I ain't shit and I know I dont come from much. My sister was murdered and I lost 3 brothers to drug over doses. Alexander the Great said that the chain of love is an easy chain to break. It's broken on a whim, for greed or jealous. The chain of fear is the strongest. Men who fear you will not cross you for fear of what you may do. It's high time we talk about fear and love and how to use then to motivate, not just be a feeling. Thank you to anyone hearing this. I appreciate you taking a little of your time.

Fear is a man's best friend
Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me !
Fear is huge motivator for those that believe in a god that punishes offenders. “I act as if God exists, and I’m terrified he might.” ~ Jordan Peterson
This man has enriched my life with his deep understanding.
This man literally changed my life
Now that was beautiful
This speech is what I need to take a risk . it’s true it’s better to take the shot and find out what happens , then to just regret what you could have done or achieved
My parents taught me to face fear & deal with it, for which I am forever grateful. As Roosevelt ( & probably others ) have said--'the only thing to fear is fear itself'.

“At least its a way forward”
I really needed to hear this. Not making a decision is worse than making a risky decision.
The Enemy of my enemy is my friend. Failure of not doing anything is my ultimate enemy so fear is really my friend
Jordan Petersen allowed me to see others in a more positive and compassionate way ! And a better understanding of my own self thoughts
"It's a way forward " Thank you Jordan B Peterson
What I like about him is he tells it like it is. He breaks things down to the lowest common denominator. Easy to comprehend. Very motivational and suffering. Jordans videos are helping me in a time of crisis right now. Thank you Jordan Peterson, you have truly found your calling.

This video made me cry it feels so true Your damned if you do and damned if you don't I'm able to detach from both, where is it that my being goes? Thank you for another insightful view,🤔💛♦ I think it is a way forward, i feel suffering so intensely, does that suffering turn into depression for some ppl What is depression why does it happen to some and does it have some worth?? Again thank you for your knowledge ♦
When you listen to him you know what he says is true and great advice. It's not surprising advice but somehow I need to listen to what he says to bring it to the forefront of my thoughts.

Jordan Peterson is like the dad never had
The problem with using fear as a motivator is that it increases anxiety and sometimes limits the potential outcomes.
What i really like about Dr. Jordan Peterson are his hands gestures and body language that he does when he's speaking or telling a story! It makes him more interesting to watch.
*you wasted and suffered, that's a bad deal* absolutely true, well said Dr Jordan
To not make a decision also has a cost

Every talk is a mine of gold information. On the topic, there are no guarantees in life, may as well live each day and do the things you love to do while you have the chance, because some say you may not have the chance.

I suffer from Severe anxiety & chronic depression (dysthymia), I take meds : THEY HELP (but my expectations were far too high : I expected them to solve all my mental problems and 100% free me from pain.. I was soo naïve, but that seems to happen often when someone is in severe pain..)
Face ur fears & have da courage to go past it. Once u fail to go thru, u will now know what it is u fear & gain knowledge with da tools needed to achieve ur way past ur fears.

God is Source, He make Order out of Chaos, Satan is rebelling against God, Striving backwards through time, through the actual world, "To Fear God is the beginning of Wisdom", Set out toward the future and place God behind you, Fear God. Let Prometheus overcome Epimetheus.
Being careful about not taking risks that could make it more difficult to manage my own emotions for my own good and the good of others is way more important to me than being careful about taking risks which may affect my image at any kind of dinner table.
very good.
