Identify what kind of a person you want to be, and then try to be that kind of a person. You can have "what you want" goals, but make sure "who you want to be" is more important than "what you want". ❤

I think the highest value I can find is peace of conscience. Jordan mentions this often, and I agree with him. To be able to say that I did my best before I died and I have no regrets. To be able to live without violating my own uniqueness, without violating the uniqueness of others.

The film "soul" shows very well that we are not happy forever when we realize our dream. We have to look for the next mountain and climb it.

Have you ever reached a goal like that? Have you ever achieved your dream? I understand that humans need something to work towards, and I completely agree, but life would be a million times better if I could achieve just one of my goals. Not working for someone else. Not having to live in debt paycheck to paycheck. I have no idea what it would be like to achieve such a dream, but I'm sure it would be better than where I am now... That's why people are motivated to achieve goals in the first place. If you keep up with that mindset you could potentially subconsciously be afraid of achieving your dreams for fear of not knowing what to do after. Don't let a dramatic representation of someone else's idea stop you from achieveing your dream...

i certainly did not get the message from the incredible film “soul” that you need to look for the next mountain to climb. not in the least. that he realizes his dream and isnt fulfilled is true, but he also realizes by 22’s example that by being in constant pursuit of a dream or purpose we usually miss out on where life actually happens which is the present moment. and that there is immense beauty in life right in the present moment. by looking, and using our senses, and truly being present, its a joy to be alive. thats what gets dulled over.

I feel like a lot of the common goals that people impose on themselves aren't things that they truly desire but are rather expectations of what others want for them or what the person thinks success looks like. It's like the kid who spent his entire life chasing a particular careerpath because they thought it would make their parents proud when in reality they walk into work every day being miserable despite thinking that it was what they wanted.

7:46 9:01 - most important goal to pursue 10:53 11:15 - flexible with goals 13:01 - who should I be 13:18 - good high order vision 14:52 - highest order goals should be an approach

I appreciate a man that can calm you when anxious and punch you in the face when you’re out of line. That is you Mr. JP!

I want us all to stop thinking we are insignificant in this universe. Because it is used to shirk responsibility for pain caused to others. We are nodes in a network, and the influence we have the potential to have on the entire network is equal among us all and not reserved only for the loudest among us. I weep when I consider how my actions have affected so many tens of thousands of people in some way that no one but God is even aware of. Technically, every breath I exhale affects everyone in the world to some degree, like the "butterfly effect". I'll call it The Flatus Effect. The sense of scale is overwhelming when you realize how significant your potential is, for good or evil, in this universe. This is why Jordan weeps when he is told by you or me of how he has impacted our lives in such an incredible way. The sense of scale in his good works is overwhelming. We all need to realize it works in the evil direction, too.

Thank you Jordan. Luv ya to pieces. God bless. Helping others is the greatest feeling along with loving others more than yourself. ✝️❤️

Our goal needs to be a personal identity, not a set of external circumstances. I have chased external circumstances more than I would like to admit. It is dominated by a feeling of inadequacy before reaching the goal and lostness and lethargy after. When the goal is an identity of a man who approaches problems with courage, vigor, and truth, then the external circumstances fade in importance.

Mr Peterson. I really enjoy listening to your outlook on many subjects. You sir have an amazing brilliant mind. I want to thank you for letting the public listen to you point of view. God has truly given you an amazing thought provoking mind. God bless you and your family.

This is, as usual, very valuable to so many people. The idea that the journey in obtaining your goal is so true. It reminds me of the proverbial “dog that caught the car.” What does he do then?the advantage a dog has is that they can re-focus quickly and start thinking about the next car.

The only goal worth pursuing is finding God. After that everything else will fall into place. You have God, you have everything.

Don't make the finish line the goal. Enjoy the journey. 💜

How do you know your want is true to you and not just taught/imposed on you by external sources. This is where knowing your feelings/boundaries/values is important. Unfortunately many are programmed at an early age and may never know their truth. There's also the issue that if your society/culture has unhealthy values , what then? Many teachings suggest that humans ultimate goal is self actualization/realisation, soul embodiment. This is human evolution and Maslow was on to it with his work on Hierarchy of Needs.

I can answer this question... But I relocated to a small village in Germany 15 years ago.... Did so much good for my overall health.

Contentment is idleness, desire inspires action, nurture all desires.

He's basically saying you should be a warrior and follow the way of the warrior, with "warrior" meaning someone who faces up to the challenges and battles of life as well as seeks those out in their absence, especially where you are needed.

Why don’t I know. Because life is never ONE thing at a time. It would be easier to start with a clean slate at this point. The weirdest thing I’m dealing with is a strange awareness that everything I want to do requires ten other things to be done first. My own doing, but it becomes a separate foe after awhile. It’s like being forced to think backwards in order to move forward. It’s unsettling, and it’s why I am focusing on your ‘do one thing that you can and will do’ approach. But some days, it’s like this: move table to other room (easy enough); wait, must first clean off chair in other room so I can move it out of the way for table; no, first have to move shelf in third room to make room for chair; no, can’t until I disassemble shelf first….and it’s like….why is everything an endless pit of backwards? I just want to move one damn table. It’s like a nightmarish tale of the old lady who swallowed a fly. I think I swallowed a nightmarish sadness, that’s what landed me here. A fine string of losses, one after the other for ten years. Still, I’ve also had enormous, outrageous blessings during this time, so let’s not forget the guilt. Sadness is hard to shake off. It’s comfortable and warm, suffocating, but familiar. You breathe its breath long enough and it becomes your own. Eventually, I get myself together and start with disassembling the shelf and have the project done in a couple of hours. I used to go non-stop from 5am to midnight some days, I loved it, but my industriousness flew out the window. I think people just break sometimes. So right, an end goal of success should not be the highest order goal. If I can (and I will) get all this stuff organized around me, and throw off this sadness, then I can at least get back to a book I was writing - that was a pleasure and a purpose for me. And so as not to end up in the belly of a whale, start talking again about what God has put on my heart. That’s a dragon I am not ready for yet. The danger is, the whale will devour me from behind if the dragon doesn’t. Maybe that’s what he’s waiting for…let the dragon flambé me and the whale can finish me off. Tasty. You can understand this: the higher we progress up the ladder, the more intelligent our enemies become. This truth functions in the natural domain and the spiritual domain. As if people aren’t hard enough to deal with, we must also contend with invisible forces at play. And may God help us when we are our own enemies.

I was looking through Japanese art illustrations this morning; there were dragons and other creatures, along with a phoenix, and I had a mini revelation. I looked up ‘Japanese dragon and phoenix art’ and there they were, hundreds of them fighting in circles. I thought, the dragon is helpless really. The phoenix can’t die by fire. So, instead of slaying the dragon with my own strength, why not just let the Spirit burn up my current form while in the presence of the dragon. Move forward, stare him right in his face, and let God set me on fire, (sacrifice - begin doing what I don’t really want to do, which will burn off what I don’t want to let go of) thus consume the dragon in the flames during the process. He’s only sealing his own fate if he tries to defeat me with fire, so he’s not so tough or scary. It’s like what Christ did through the Cross to defeat Satan, the devil thought he had won, but he was only sealing his own fate. “…and having spoiled principalities and powers, He made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in [the Cross].” I don’t even have to fight the dragon really. Just allow the fire to consume me and him, rise out of my ashes, and sift through the dragon’s pile of ashes to collect the gold.

What humans really want (at least at their most core level even if they don't realize it) is not just real specific items or even scenarios necessarily. What we really want is to fully belong to a loving God and be fully intertwined into a a loving people who shine the radiance of that God. We want community and to be fulfilled by the One Who actually Created us. He made it to where our deepest longing and need is actually Him. But He also designed us for community and to belong so deeply to it, to a people who love each other with the same astonishing love they have from God meaning they would lay their lives down for one another. The specifics can vary from there but would flow from that ultimate foundation.

Except for the woman, which is a minefield for me. I’m a workaholic and “my sacrifice” has chosen me. If I add women to the mix, it’s too complicated. Yes, I should back off on the work front now, but women are still a high maintenance minefield if you have competence and good abilities. So it’s a different Dragron now, actually crouching tigresses………. And you are the “hidden dragon” in plain sight!

It's just sad that we can't seem to find people who don't wear the black ring to discuss moral and life lessons.

So someone answers the question of what they want and the answer is not good enough for you. So what do you want to hear, that would be a better question then.

Ask and you will receive if what you ask for is truly righteous and of benefit to everyone, regardless of any self-deception. All sin is a lie and all lies start within the self. Temptation, for example, is giving into the self-deception that you need the dopamine dump from it without sacrificing anything for it. When people pray for things that they do not get, I wonder if they are honest to themselves about how truly self-serving their prayer is and how what they are asking for effects every single individual and atom in the universe, let alone every person's life. To be self-centered in this regard is why people fail to see that their prayer requests are unreasonable. I have many prayers answered daily often of insignificant things, because at this stage in my spiritual development I can more easily comprehend the impact, and they are reasonable for God to answer them. LIke this container I have in front of me was perfect for a task the other day. I need it to be as small as possible to hold something I was going to soak to use as little liquid as possible. Totally insignificant. Plenty of other containers, and this is isopropyl alcohol. Not exactly liquid gold. I find it and it looks too small by like maybe a few millimeters. It was the first random thing I found. I said to God it would be pretty cool to testify that you bent time and space to make this container work for this task! That was the prayer. Seconds later, I walked to the other room and the object fit perfectly like to less than a millimeter tollerance. Prayer was answered, and this is the first time I testify about it. Everything I wanted, because it was righteous and had the side effect of benefiting me in my task. Consider, like the concept in the "butterfly effect" movie series, how many things on the level of intercontencdenss through time and space did he get all the things to correlate, designers, factories, supply chains, stuff that occurred decades ago. I don't even know when or how I got this plastic square junk container. Someone no longer in my life bought it. And why did they choose this one then? But he did all this, in what we comphened as "the past", just to answer my prayer that I would have something to testify to. But this happens literally daily for things big and small. I thank him, and I spend my entire day with him and we talk all day. I have hyper-salience tendencies (which makes it difficult for me to communicate with others) and I'm able to work alone and at home and independently without a boss, so I have this luxury of mind and situation to make this easier.

So damn tired. But as Peterson one said, Pick up a load, Carry the weight. So I decided to carry the weight of the world, Like Atlas. God of compasses and maps. I hope people will stop fighting but I doubt that. I think "god" or someone who likes to think of themselves as "god" made a judgment call. And they were wrong. Like a child with an ant farm and a magnifying glass. They wanted to milk me like a golden calf, or some golden goose. A false idol for financial gain. A sacrificial lamb. For insurance, they put a virus in my brain. And set somone I cared about very deeply up, then made her go away. I can feel my body slowly dying. I want to die so bad, But I know I can do a lot more for humanity if I lived and had access to better resources, books, medicine, materials and knowledge. So here's a really, Really bad idea and a horrible gamble. I know you should NEVER talk to strangers online and you should NEVER give out your personal information. Ever. If you're reading this, Never do this. Ever. But I'm desperate, So damn desperate. And scared for the first time in a long time. My name is Riley Weiss-Williams. I am 23 years old. I live at 9419 west adler street, Milwauke, Wisconsin. I dont want to be assassinated or killed in a freak accident. I don't do drugs, I've stoped smoking weed, I don't drive. I don't do risky behaviors usually that will result in my death and I'm trying to save the literal world. I don't know where is safe but I need to be taken somewhere safe. Somewhere secret. But not to become like little grace. I have thought deeply about becoming a freemason but not even I trust them with the secrets I understand about jungian and freudian psychoanalysis and how they tie into physics and the secrets of the universe. But they might be my only hope at surviving this ordeal. I love you, mom. I love you, dad. I love you, sister. I love you, brother. Forgive me. I hope The Grand architect of the universe is watching and keeping an eye out for me. Please protect my family, Please protect this house. Please protect my dogs. I want to save the world but if you feel you need to kill me, I understand. Just let them be.

@@sebastiaanstok A way I heard it put was by Tencious D. "..We be not Angels. We are men." Pick of destiny. Mk ultra pro. I'm gonna try and save the world. Dyslexia and genetic psychopathy might be the demon turned angel that you, That the world, needs. The capacity to think in the light and shadows of 7 virtues and 7 sins. That equals 28. A beautiful number. Even if you want to string me up by my boots and beat me to death with a baseball bat till my piss turns red, good sir, You know I'm right. And I hate being right. And my destiny is to wake up certain people in the world up, to save them, To trust them with certain divine knowledge. I can't quite do this yet with how sick I am but people want me dead and I'm going to walk to where I need to if it's the last thing I do. I hope uncle Sam Is keeping an eye on me so I dont get horribly assassinated. My car is dead in the water. And I'm losing time. I can feel cellular death and my literal iq drop. I know, I know. I hate the Beatles too. Come Together - The Beatles.

When you, Jordan, at the beginning state that the reason people don't know what they want is because the absence of God, I find that really sad! - how little autonomy do you possess if you need God to know what you want. That's putting all your shortcomings in the hand on everyone else which is a shame.

it seems people need something to believe in, if its not God then they fill it with "social justice" instead

You want to fix problems or things that are bothering you. Everything else its a propaganda. Search a meaning of life into this way

I spend the whole time trying to figure out why I could not stand this so much. So I guess that’s a win for yah in that regard. What people want, is never it, once they identify it. Until you recognize the underlying mechanisms that turn it into an ego. Which is not something to pretend to capitalize on for yours. But you can at least say you are happily prideful to justify being like the evil common ugly folk who “get it”. The book looks like a tool for god to work “mysteriously” but that’s the cover.

I hate to say it but the death of God has nothing to do with our purpose, at least in my case. I can't bring myself to believe in God anymore, although I was brought up in a baptist family, and I have to say, since then I've been much happier. No more feeling guilty for no reason, no more shame. With no God I feel more at peace. I was also freed to think more clearly and not bound by dogma, doctrine and all that religion comes with. I also found a more meaningful purpose in life.

​@@Huckleberry04 If that makes you happy then by all means practice it. I just don't buy into the idea that we are all Gods children. Because if we were, then God is a sadistic 'parent'. Cancer in children, famine, plagues, war, rape, murder etc. These are all things that our so called 'father' just keeps on giving it to us. Take covid for example, it wasn't God that saved us, scientists did. God didn't give us a cure, we created it. We created fertilizers to help end famine, God didn't. Second, if you are a parent, would you allow your 'own children' to slaughter each other? When Cain killed Abel, God was still very much roaming the earth. This omnipresent and omniscient god did nothing to stop 'his children' from killing each other. Would you also not communicate with 'your children' other than just through a book that btw was also put together by humans? Could you imagine having children, abandoning them on a different planet and then then trying to raise them through letters that you don't even send to them directly but through other people? and at the end if they don't follow your rules then condemn them to eternal torture. Would you still call this god a 'loving father'?

@@Huckleberry04 and to answer your questions: I am my parents child. I popped into existence because my parents chose to. I wish there was more, but there is no evidence there is more after death, which makes life more precious. That I means I have to live life to the fullest because there isn't another. I choose to make my life satisfying. I work harder to achieve more. I explore more, I'm curious about the world around me, I absorb as much as I can. If we fool ourselves that there is a better life somewhere else then we have no incentive to live life here.

@@attilacooper5837 but where is here... You see how complicated perception is? Made up purpose will not satisfy you completely forever. Did it ever occur to you that you felt more "free" because you subconciously told yourself that religion was restricting you? religion frees us to love while still being rooted in truth...that is why its meaningful and nessesary if you think about it hard enough

@@Alienrun I can't say I ever told myself that religion was restricting me. I grew up in it. That is all I knew to be true. During my teenage years I used to pray 3 times before going to bed. And you know what? After I spent all my youth devoting myself to god, I never felt that "presence" that everyone is thinking about. Never heard a voice, a whisper, never seen anything godly. But which religion is the truth? Look at the christian bible. The bible we know, didn't exist until some churches in the 5th century made it in the format we know. Even after that it was still modified.

I can't get what I really want, so I'm forced to try to only want what I know I can get.
