Jordan Peterson argues the act of cleaning your room is an act that will spark a sequence of events, it is a catalyst for change. If one can clean their room, it is a way of confronting your demons. Your room often reflects your mental state.

For those who are struggling still to clean and then beautify your room, here are a few things I have done to beautify my room whilst poor. I am a certified artist and college teacher, btw. :D
1) buy a couple art books at a thrift store. Like I got a huge Van Gogh one for like $3. Then cut out the pictures that you like best. Frame them now and hang them! If you have no frames then tape them to a larger piece of colored paper that will create a border.
2) Line your bookshelves with pretty or cool fabric. My daughter and I were at a craft store. They were selling the sample swatches of upholstery fabrics that were gorgeous! So we bought a bunch! If you don't have a craft store in your town, line your book shelves with aluminum foil. I've done that. You'll be surprised at how good it looks!
3) The dollar store!! Don't eschew the Dollar Tree for decorative items. I've gotten candles, wall decorations, etc... from the Dollar Tree. They had these foil cut out things that were shaped like tree branches with a few leaves. Arranged just so, it came out really nice.
4) If you have a really stunning dress or jacket, hang it on a wall! Like in "To Wong Fu Love Julie Newmar, " the guys decorated their little shabby motel with their clothing, scarves, and jewelry. I had some blue jean shorts that got a hole. I patched it with some paisley upholstery fabric and it was good. But soon a couple more holes appeared. So I found some more really cool fabric. Soon the shorts were half patches! It was 1993, the grunge days, and I lived in Seattle. I got sooo many compliments! Years later those shorts were on my wall!
Does anyone else have budget minded creative decorative suggestions??

I just wanted to mention, as someone who only recently began watch Dr. Peterson’s videos. He has listed every step for my transition to acquiring responsibilities. He is beyond right and I vouch as a personal testimony. From cleaning my room to being ambitious in the real world. Thank you Dr. Peterson for having great wisdom.

Animated videos always help to really hammer a point home

Well done.
It adds another sense (seeing/visualising) to an already powerful message.
It's clean and simple style hits the spot.
Keep them coming.

I hope the SJWs can hear this

This is the man speaking about the things I wanted someone to explain me about my own fantasies while thinking about cleaning my room just staring at it for hours when I was 12

Incredibly well made well done, make sure to make some more.

This gives me the same feeling of realisation and clarity as the following insight I had these days: Running is basically nothing more than falling forward and catching yourself alternately with your right and left foot.

He’s right 100%, , , i did this over the past 15 years, so I learnt the hard way. But as I watched this video I agreed with every step.

My only difference is I didn’t slay the dragon I only scared it off, possibly injured it. I know it’s still out there some where...

[jaxketpocket]

👌I really really enjoyed that! Thank you! 🙏, The audio you chose of him speaking with that emotional edge, It keeps my attention and I become so enthralled and attentive of his voice ! Having a visual story book of sorts of his words it’s so helpful in exaggerating them and thus help to create a memory of them much easier !

[self-parternerd]

This is very artistic and really serves the purpose to let the meaning og JP's words cinch to you!

[RidiculousTherd]

I never get enough of this guy.. Truely a saint
