“When you ask why such terrible things happen in the world, the answer is quite simple. The answer is it’s because you’re not good enough. And, it’s because you don’t tell the truth. And you know it.”
““Risk your security. Face the unknown. Quit lying to yourself, and do what your heart truly tells you to do. You will be better for it, and so will the world.”
— Jordan Peterson, Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief (via the-rose-alchemist)
“The path to paradise is through hell… and if you don’t go there voluntarily you’ll go there by accident…”
— Dr. Jordan B. Peterson
“If you actually want something, you can have it. The question then is what do you mean by actually want? And the answer is, you reorient your life in every possible way to make the probability that that will occur as certain as possible. And that’s a sacrificial idea right? It’s like, you don’t get everything, obviously… But maybe you can have what you need, and maybe all you have to do to get it is ask; but asking isn’t a whim, or today’s wish. You have to be deadly serious about it”
— Jordan Peterson
“It seems to me that we’re at a kind of crossroads. I don’t know exactly why, you always meet the devil at the crossroads by the way, and the reason for that is because every crossroad is a choice, and it’s always a choice between good and evil. We’re at a crossroads and I don’t know why, I guess it’s because the terrible 20th century has spent its energy and now we have something new in the aftermath. It’s time for everyone to pick up the chaotic pieces and to carry them voluntarily and to make their way through the world, and to try to speak their truth, and to see what happens - it will heal your self, it will heal your body, and it will heal your soul, it’ll heal your family, it’ll heal the nation - that’s what truth does and how could it be any other way? Reality is the truth! And how are you going to adapt to it without using the truth? Well the problem is reality is the terrible truth but it’s certainly possible that the terrible truth is its own medicine.”
