>Start working out

>Keep stuff like video games/Internet to a minimum

There, I just saved you hours and hours of pretentious philosophy BS. No need to thank me.

>>132202570
Thank you.

The guy is good for normies and semi-WOKEs, but he's still shit-tier for intellectual minds.

Get a degree, get a career, become good at something, then become proud of your life.

Jordan Peterson would have you studying soft sciences to become a better person, he definitely believes he's on our side but I've agree with other anon, he was definitely influenced by the 80% women of his psychology courses. His ideology is dripping with feminine thoughts that otherwise make no sense for a straight white man to have.

Clean your room

Watch his older lectures on personality and "maps of meanings" sorted me out good.

That day can be whenever you want it to be.
You are approaching it of your own volition.
Keep cleaning.

I found this one to be pretty good.

This one as well:

That one is a two-parter.

Then this one is also good:

Then, O.P., what you should do is stay up-to-date with his Y.T. and Twitter. Should be good for you. There are loads more quality videos on his Y.T. if you have time.

You might as well look to order a copy of this Bible if your English is good enough, Mr Peterson recommended that one:

The sum of useful knowledge he has to offer is that you can use the subclassification of newtonian truth(observational commonality) and darwinian truth(pattern repetition) to define successful value systems found in religious idealogies as darwinianly "true" regardless of the improvable and farfetched mythological delivery, based on their usefulness in organizing a society.

Example: You shouldn't fuck kids because kids make bad parents/set looser social examples. Success story of this idea is the hajnal line of northwest europe, where for the first time ever most people started having kids in their 20's and onwards. Leading to greater social cohesion.

Essentially, the idea that moral systems cannot be based on object observations(can't get from an is statement to an ought statement directly) is the first assertion of nihilism--there is no object morality or worth. But the path explored by using pattern repetition and considering human social systems and humans themselves as a pattern essentially establishes a new angle by which you can actually weigh religious and cultural tenets against each other with a different standard of legitimacy.

In effect this means that he doesn't(shouldn't) believe in god as an entity, but believes in a moral ideal and value system as essentially valuable, and proven to be successful in nearly every society. It's a more fleshed out version of an old observation of oral traditions as mass psychological fingerprints of cultural ideals. Such as gilgamesh just being superhumanly strong but his flaw in the eyes of the gods is indulging in prima noctum, could be used as an example of what mesopotamians expected of their leaders/citizens as an ideal.

Whereas hercules is strong, clever, dutiful, and penitent. And as a hero, represents what greek people thought of as "heroic".

TL;DR The best value system wins/survives/flourishes, and this is as close as you can get to calling it "true". Everything else he says is self-help.
