Being a 23 year old man I can't express how valuable this man is to me. He's changed and is continuing to change my life. Thanks JP

Go into the unknown so you can know yourself. We need to go through necessity to grow. A call to adventure.

[andreheller]

11 years ago, I left my roots, my family, my home country and built up a life in a foreign country, in my case, I left Germany and went to Ireland and built up a whole life here from scratch. I grew so immensely, way more, than I could have done in the cosy and well-known area I grew up in, I became a man in a lot of ways and have made so many experiences, painful and full of pleasure, I have memories, friends, a life, wealth in memories and a different point of view to many of my countrymen, it became clear to me only recently, that this was part of my path to growth. In four weeks I go back to my home country to again start from scratch, but this time bolstered by everything I learned, experienced and the memories and the friends I made. I am not afraid anymore of change, going into the unknown, as Peterson rightly puts it, life is the journey, not the destination, it's the adventure, the unknown, the uncalculable risk. That is what makes you life fully. I am still anxious about the future, but that doesn't stop me. Go forth and dare to make these steps on your life's path, but before you do, close your eyes and trust yourself.

I’ve been tempted the last two years to start my life over. Quit my job, pack up, and move. To where? I don’t know. But far away from my family. I love them, but they’ve sheltered me too much. I’m 26 and I still feel like I’m a child because of how much I’m coddled by them. I’ve never really been my own man. I’ve always relied on my parents to help me with everything. And I’ve come to realize that this is a cancer on my personal development.

All I need now is a bit of courage.

I'm 19 and I've felt so low and lost for a long time, Jordan Peterson pulled me into the light and showed me how to guide myself through the world. The greatest father figure I've ever had.

[Joseph_Soars]

Any other fatherless souls out there that adopted Dr. Peterson as their surrogate father figure?

[stephenmelton]

My grandma was more succinct. "If you want to build big ships ya gotta go where there's deep water. "

[wendallparker]

He’s right. I’ve gone into the unknown all my life. It’s more fun than anything you can imagine. It may be scary at times but worth it.

[sahrahashi]

I did this. I went into the unknown. What he says is the absolute truth.

After taking the path many often have and spending over a decade working to free myself from the subsequent financial slavery I found myself in, I quickly found myself enslaved by something else; a state of stagnation. A void had grown that nothing seemed to fill, and slowly, I withdrew from society. My free time was spent wasting away in front of computer screen, cycling endlessly through social media/image boards, watching Hollywood's latest turd and/or playing every video game that came out, all while pumped full of a cornucopia of prescription drugs meant to help me find contentment in a world I just couldn't make sense of anymore.

They didn't help. None of it helped. Nothing filled the void. This went on for years.

Finally, in an act of desperation after nearly taking my own life, I came up with a drastic plan that made absolutely no sense to anyone but me. I sold what could be sold and gave away what couldn't, abandoned what no one wanted, packed what little remained and moved from a frozen corner of the US to a small, beautiful island in the middle of the Caribbean Sea, away from everyone and everything I'd ever known, including the six medications my doctor had assured me I could not function without. And even though I did find a measure of peace and was indeed happier than I'd ever remember being, I didn't really know what true happiness was or what it even really meant to feel alive until both Hurricanes Irma and Maria showed up to turn my little slice of paradise inside out.

Both were Category 5. The destruction was beyond description. Nothing was spared. We were months without power. Through the first weeks, resupply was limited to nonexistent. Every road was impassible and only cleared if we went out and cleared it ourselves; zero government assistance. Zero police presence. The roof of the island's only hospital; collapsed hours into the first storm. All creature comforts; vanish. Even if I'd wanted to leave, the destruction to the airport made any notions of escape back to where I'd come from impossible. Thousands of people living on an isolated island, thrown back into a much simpler, more primitive existence with no escape, no help, limited supplies and nothing to govern us all but an unwritten social contract and the realization that we were all in the same mess together.

And my God, we didn't just survive, we *THRIVED*

[Jose-rzye]

This man's diverse knowledge blows my mind on how accurate and true it is.

[andrw]

This made me break into tears. This man is precious🙏

[benjaminkuti]

This is my favourite so far, I remember when he said this in the biblical series.

[BrotherTree]

A true master is a student who has remained so for a very long time (and likely for the rest of their physical life) constantly learning about new failures.

[abaronofchivalry]

I've started to listen to him at a young age and I'm sure I won't regret it. Ever.

[okthennone]

I feel this way every time I use a public restroom...scary and unknown.

[BoneMaestro]

Every now and then, listening his voice cracking, I have a feeling this man is going to break in tears because of the will to explain to us The Meaning but he is aware of the fact he can not because we must do it on our own.

Just like that feeling in vivid dreams. Someome is running for you. You are aware of it and have infinite amount of will to run but you just can't.

[auraandrei]

I am into the unknown. People from work hide info from me but thank God things always get revealed eventually. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. When you develop patience you realize that if you wait a little longer then you find out what you need to know to play the game as well as your enemies.
