Stop Lying to Yourself and Others

Getting hurt by the help is the worst betrayal of all.

If anyone is on the fence about spending the $ to go see Dr. Peterson when he announces the next leg of his tour, probably this fall, DO IT. Go see him. There is an immediacy about getting to see him speak that you simply don’t get in these recorded lectures, much as I appreciate them and am truly truly thankful for them. When I went to see Dr. Peterson in Boston, I didn’t watch his projection on the screen. I didn’t take notes. I watched him. I did not take my eyes off him, the tall, thin, rosy-cheeked figure on the stage. And there’s no replacement for that immediacy. For the thrill when I first glimpsed him just off stage and realized he was wearing my favorite of the suit coats he wears and knew I was actually under the same roof with him. I did not want the lecture to end. And when I got to meet him after, it was like a reunion with an old dear friend and not meeting a celebrity for the first time. It’s so, so worth it. And now I miss him. But it’s so good to have someone to miss and to look forward to the next meeting. If you love Dr. Peterson, you will love going to see him. Love from Ruth Anne

This explains why Jordan refuses to bite his tongue in the face of controversy, even when he's got the mob looming over him. In an ideal world, we'd all operate this way, but most people will choose to protect the integrity of their livelihoods above all else, including at the expense of their own conscience.

His last line, " You don't want to practice that"...Whoa! So much truth! I can feel what he is saying

I need to stop being a degenerate. I've failed last time, i hope next time is the one, if not i'll keep trying

It's pretty hard to speak out when basic honesty is censored. I get regular hate speech warnings just for telling the truth, or supporting the truth tellers. It's no wonder that people choose to go out with a bang 😢

"I have often said, 'It isn't that you did nothing wrong; more important is, what have you done that is right?' The answer to this question should go on our gravestones. If so, I believe there would be more instances of what we did right and fewer of what we did wrong."

"Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise,  making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.  Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is."  Ephesians 5.15-17 Oh my God this tiny clip is profoundly striking. I've never heard of performative contradiction. So in all those decades spent working non-creative, unfulfilling positions my actions became habitual in remaining unengaged and miserable. Then resentment grew under the surface of that. It was like practicing the art of being miserable so I could keep making money. Omg! A whole lot of things happened these past few years including the opportunity to pursue my creative endeavors but also the tyrants of propaganda and 'unvaccinated concentration camp' a-holes which began slow boiling me. Along with other factors, it only took a year and I had zero work ethic or enthusiasm for anything. I had no practice in sustaining anything I desired to accomplish or felt fulfilled in doing…I mean, is that even possible? To contradict oneself like this? Unbelievable, and there's a name for it! So now I have to sort out my biological structures I've built predicated on performative contradiction. Since this means healing a violated conscience, I guess building that desirable schedule based on fun and rewarding tasks will rebuild a fulfilling work ethic structure; this would be a new psycological structure in tandem with practical action (I relegated my own desires and creative pursuits in favor of un-engaging tasks that made me miserable, that’s the only structure for work I had). I think prayer, praise and gratitude will make this possible, even though it may not come easily at first. But this should help to redeem the time, uproot the resentment and build the new work ethic structure I need. God, what a mess. Like how damn hard is it to enjoy yourself in your work?? In life? How do we get so comfortable with being so miserable? Thanks for sharing....whoever is back there behind the curtain pulling the levers....

I really enjoy the depth of your mindset!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Blessings, Crews

People who are not honest to themselves can not do any right thing.

Dr. Peterson live in Chile this Sunday 22th. can´t wait to see him.

6:38 - Well that is perfectly relatable. I did waste my life for years and became a failure of a human being. Someone who failed at life. Someone who missed the train. Someone who will never accomplish anything. A loser. I did lose myself, all my desires and impulses, everything I could have been. I did reject and kill all that part of me. There's nothing more to do because shame and fear and guilt prevent any attempt to change. I am a creature like Gollum, pathetic and disgusting to look at. Ashamed to even exist anymore. A mask with no person behind it. There is no force of will within me pulling me forward. I am already dead. I wish my body doesn't take too long to catch up.

A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.

So you're a Priest of the Most High? And the Truth Shall set us Free! Amen!

My dad used to say that the truth that is not conveyed in love* is not the truth... direct translation would be: "A truth not clothed in love is not the truth."🙄😎 *Agape God's love

It's good to see you back again. It's been awhile, but you found the road again. Proud of you

Thank You 👍🏻.

When you start asking, seeking and knocking for The Truth let alone speak it, you really start to see how much fear had its grip on you to begin with and man have I found these two scriptures couldn’t ring more true: 1. “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”John‬ ‭8‬:‭32‬ ‭ 2. “Those who The Son sets free, are free indeed.” John 8:36 God bless everyone who commits themselves to this adventure 🕊️🙏🏼

This was needed

We are similar in many ways. This is the truth. The people I appreciate definitely have the characteristic that they don't change some things for the sake of anyone. I appreciate me for the same reason, though. I would like to continue to appreciate all of us. Let's leave things to luck and the moment...
