2 and a half hours?

I don't think so....

Try condensing that shit, would ya?

You don't need to watch the lectures if you don't want to

Are you sorting yourself out?

>Are you sorting yourself out?

Can you give me a quick rundown on what that even means?

Dude has a point, don't post MoM as an introduction to peterson, its fucking 10 lectures 3 hours each.
Here's a much better introductory video with jbp's interview on rogan's show. Still 3 hours but it gets to the point and you can know if you are interested in jbp in the first 20 minutes.

Emphasis on "Quick"

also isn't a "quick rundown" a gay euphemism for when you got cum running down your leg, what is Sup Forums doing saying that kind of stuff

currently sorting myself out, self-authoring my future, and BTFOing ideologues daily

ty Based Jordan Peterson

I have that thumbnail tattoo'd around my upper thigh.

Bump

kind of homo

Someone post the horrendous makeup photo

>also isn't a "quick rundown" a gay euphemism for when you got cum running down your leg, what is Sup Forums doing saying that kind of stuff
I wish. It's what's left of that attempt at forcing the Borgandoffs. I'm not sure why someone is forcing this crybaby Canadian itinerant preacher.

Why? Nobody sees it except me and my women.
My grandfather had the same one, he said it represented the cycle of life and that all life owes a dept to the earth and its only payed with death.

i dunno, its a dragon sucking its own dick, tatooed on your tight

>also isn't a "quick rundown" a gay euphemism

Gay cum is literally all you think about, isn't it?

I guess that fishmouth is for sucking dick, isn't it?

It's an ouroboros

i know what it is, im just saying what it visually communicates

Scully a shit. Brainwashed feminist cunt.

fishmouth sounds like an euphemism for pussy , actually

shut up fag

I think the best lectures for introducing people to Peterson are
Evil vs Tragedy
The Necessity of Virtue
"Self-Deception in Psychopathology" (might be to complex)
Jordan Peterson: Reality and the Sacred

Watch them in that order, at least evil vs tragedy and the necessity of virtue should be the first Peterson lectures you watch. One of his most powerful talks.

This was the biggest and easiest redpill to take from based Dr. Peterson.

day 8 of no porn and no fap

My self control is getting better but red pills are exhausting.

Great collection norwaybro, I'll check them out later cause I've binge watched a bunch of lectures so I don't know if I've caught all of those.
Still, however, I think the JRE interview is best for introduction to normies, mainly because Rogan is pretty much a normie compared to JBP and he acts as the middleman for JBP to stay on course and explain specific things regarding his works. I didn't even think highly of rogan until I saw that interview, I considered him a braindead cospiratard leftie hippie until then.

Is /syo/ just another word for /nofap/ or is it genuinely something focused on self-improvement?

>Listening to Petercuck
>Ever

>fishmouth sounds like an euphemism for pussy , actually

Nah, it's people who literally are unable to close their mouths.

someone get on this
we need to give this user all the information possible

good fucking god that kid is disturbing looking in true color

you can masturbate if you want. The point of this shit is to come back from katabasis (if ur there), and then going to the dragon's lair to rescue your father so he can give you the magic sword with which to face the demon and get the semi-godess princess to gift you the golden ball


still sounding like a pussy to me

Wow you must have really been into the x-files. Is she looking at your dick?

Blasphemy, scully dresses modesty take it back you negro

>The point of this shit is to come back from katabasis (if ur there), and then going to the dragon's lair to rescue your father so he can give you the magic sword with which to face the demon and get the semi-godess princess to gift you the golden ball

Well. Glad to know I'm in the right thread.

JUST how fucked am I lads?

I have actually made progress. My depression is gone. I am owning up to my past mistakes and understanding that if I want more out of my life i need to sacrifice and plan for it. I just wish someone had helped me with my insanity earlier but I realize now my parents suck ass at raising children.

I'm going to do better.

Thanks. I agree with what you say about Joe Rogan, he did a very good job with being the middleman that helps unravel Peterson's thoughts to the normies. And it is a good introduction to a lot of his thinking.

The reason i recommend the two that i recommend is because the enormous impact those lectures did on me personally when i randomly stumbled upon them on youtube. They aren't complex and they don't require as much as his university lectures, but they speak right to your fucking soul about the real shit about the human condition and they are enough to knock you out of a nihilism or just give a path forward or a light if you are depressed. They also have some of his fundamental ideas within them and there is none of that anti-pc thing in them, its just about personal stuff. (but then again the personal suffering and corruption of individuals is what makes up pathological mass political movements)

that looks like the Irish national mean
t. plastic paddy

Yummy

"Make yourself a better person. Fix what you can and would fix. Start now. There is something right in front of you, demanding repair, calling out to your conscience, if you would only attend to it, for your corrective efforts, however primitive they may yet be. Start small. As you master the process, you can safely and competently expand your reach. You will then become able to fix bigger things, instead of making them worse, in the arrogance of your ignorance."

oh you hilarious bastard

His new years letter is a good short introduction to what he represents

>still sounding like a pussy to me

Shut up, joe.

So I've spent the last four months since being admitted to the bar doing just about nothing, depressed because I didn't get a job right out of law school, and too afraid of my own inadequacy to really do anything substantial in solo practice.

But then they came for my father. For his livelihood. For his money. For his pride. The regulators of another state, supposedly for something he did before I even began law school.

So I've spent the last week working on nothing else. I found another lawyer from that state to help me petition the court for admission on this case. I found all the law I needed for the basics of our defense. I made templates for our filings. I drafted, redrafted, and redrafted again motions and affidavits and certificates.

Finally, I wrote opposing counsel. He knows of me now. His fury in being challenged by one such as me was blatantly clear in the terseness of his response.

My fear and angst at every step is crippling, but I have no choice but to rise up against everything in my way. I will exonerate my father. I will destroy my enemies. I will win, somehow.

This is how I've sought to sort myself out.

oh, okay, thanks for the cliff notes version.

I already do that, though.

Reminder that she has weird nips.

Anyone else sad that the X-Files revival happened last year instead of this year? If they'd have just held off for a while, we would have seen a photo of Trump on the wall in Skinner's office.

No you don't. Just look at your post, it comes with a tripcode. You can't be sorted and tripfag on Sup Forums at the same time.

No you dont, you are too damn lazy to take your tripcode out

>we would have seen a photo of Trump on the wall in Skinner's office.

hopefully next time KEK

In a psychological sense? It's about sorting yourself out mentally, understanding your own thought processes, improve your personality and basically fixing yourself. How can you fix society if you yourself are broken...

>tripcode.

Fuck off shareblue....

I'll trip post if I damn well please.

>>/r/the_donald

Never been there.

Improving your life. Slaying a dragon. Saving your father. Just some average cult-speak. Scientology equivalent would be making gains and big wins, going Clear, etc.

rn you are being an emotional little bitch, u need to sorty yourself out, go clean your room

>rn you are being an emotional little bitch

What are these "Emotions" you speak of?

is that when you cry because you can't win an argument online?

Well, maybe you should go cry more, just to clear things up, you whiny little fishmouthed fuck.

Look at these losers calling themselves alt-right.

Taking a Theories of Reality & Knowledge class and this section from William James titled "What Pragmatism Means" is a great explanation of what Jordan was getting at in his first talk with Sam Harris

gutenberg.org/files/5116/5116-h/5116-h.htm#link2H_4_0004

see, little bitch all around

By tripfagging without a prior need of identification and on a board with IDs you admit to having 0 knowledge of board culture. This means that it's your first year or so on Sup Forums or the chans in general, which, in turn, indicates that you either got here by chance or by being a redditor, and your self-reighteousness ("I'll trip post if I damn well please") indicates that it's the latter.
So, lurk moar, and drop the tripcode. This is an anonymous board for a reason.

>Realizing that the ultimate metapolitical weapon is the development and mastery of the individual self

>Abandoning a wordview that seeks to project the problems of society on external forces as an ego defense to ignore personal weakness in favor of one which accepts responsibility for our own shortcomings.

>Accepting that social improvement is downstream from individual improvement. Only by individually shouldering the burdens of existance and mastering our own suffering through discipline, self-improvement and traditional virtue can one strengthen themselves so that they are capable of helping others/society at large

>Fix your life first before you go looking to fix everyone else's problems. Always tell the truth, most importantly to yourself. Rather than bitch about the the evils in the world, focus on getting your shit together so that you are spiritually and practically equiped to help others without just making things worse.

>Good societies/communities are built and maintained by good, responisible, and disciplined men. Make yourself worthy of accepting that burden and serve as a role model for others

SORT YOURSELF OUT BUCKO!

>see, little bitch all around

Stop projecting, you round bitch.

you should work on making people welcome, or else everyone with good ideas will leave.

Tripcodes are unacceptable apart from specific cases. I'm merely trying to educate the fella, I didn't even call him a faggot, despite his insistence that he's not new. It's understandable that a new person gets lost in the chaos of anonymity and will look to tripcodes to distinguish himself from the rest of the anons, but board culture is a learning process, and new people must understand that this is what makes the chins great. If you can't live with that this might not be the place for you (although I strongly believe that, once you make that distinction, you realize the dort of freedom you get by being anonymous, and you then proceed to never leave).

go clean your room fag, you are clearly unsorted

>get lasik so the enemy can't break my glasses and handicap me in the upcoming race war
>a week later practically blind and using my limited energy to shitpost on Sup Forums

self improvement is a meme

Also to add, the wisdom of those who came before us is the best guide we have to the Truth. This manifests through the cultural archetypes and narratives that have persisted throughout history. The simple fact that these ideas of how to best act in the world have persisted for thousands of years is evidence of their value and efficacy.

i'd just like to point out that this is an hilarious thing to tell anyone

"go clean your room fag, you are clearly unsorted"

Quote of the day

it's poorly produced but they made some decent points. no need to shit on everyone you disagree with

Soon your eyes will heal user, and like Horus himself, you will use your newly strengthened powers of observation to spot the snakes in the garden of Order others fail to see.

...

He is truly one of the greatest thinkers of our time. I'm watching his Maps of Meaning class lectures. Yes they are long and yes they will not appeal to the uneducated, but if you have half a brain there is a shit-ton of great stuff in there. I have never regretted watching any of his videos. If you want a quick start, watch his Message to Millennials. It's good, easy, and short.

Compilation someone made for all of his Reddit AMA answers.

Peterson dropping megaton iron pills.

What makes this guy special? What makes his self authoring thing different from a journal? How do I not know this isn't just another jewish scam?

Sounds like this guy is trying to sound like Sam Harris.

Because he's not asking for your shekels. You can watch his lectures for free on his youtube channel.

his great grandfather was Norwegian and B stands for bernt. that explains his geniousenes. he is not a true leaf

If you've been thinking about something in the past for years, fix it or at least write about it, get it out of your system. Also, think about your future. Jordan's www.selfauthoring.com helps you do both, for $30.

What is that? Does the self-authoring suite include a personality profile?

I bet you all are jealous, i live right down the street from Jordan and know him personally, I"m a graduate student at u of t and regularly defend him.

Doing better. Been getting /fit/. Got a job. Travel a lot for work. Socializing more.

Goddamn do I have to put on a plastic face and pretend to be oblivious about politics a lot though.
Step one was career, step two is to make a wife out of some girl.

I'm trying to overcome my fear and hatred of Catholicism, but it is not coming easily.

I'm going to get PRK done. How bad was it?

>fear
What is there to fear? The church is incompetent as fuck and our Pope is preaching heresy. Catholicism is dying.

How can you actually get yourselves to start improving your lives? I've listened a shit ton of Peterson's lectures that have given me a ton of insight and really made my neurons fire but I can't still conjure motivation for anything useful.

>selection sort
Does anyone actually use that?

I haven't done it, but it's cheap. It might ask you questions in a way you wouldn't have asked yourself. I also journal, and try to clean up my past. I too have been slow to try, but I think I'm going to. I've been in therapy in the past and therapists can ask very incisive questions that wouldn't occur to you otherwise.

edge ur cock till u are about to cum

Honestly Trump winning the election put some wind under my sails. It did for the whole country, despite what our media is saying. Economy here is booming.

>tfw clean and orderly room

i quit smoking.

I really want to wank but I'm only two days in. Help!

Wanking is fine. Just don't use any media to do so. Wank to your imagination. It's completely different than bombarding your brain with porn imagery.

Wank to the archetypes.

Congrats. I used to smoke almost a pack of reds a day when I worked in a shop.

I still smoke once in a bluemoon if I'm out drinking but only if I bum a cigarette off a person. I don't buy any for myself because I never want to get on them again. Honestly I need to just quit, I need to cut down my drinking too.

I'm pretty sure they kept Clinton's photo around long after Bush had been elected so I doubt they would have included Trump.
