Hard Work Actually Works | Jocko Willink and Jordan B Peterson

[@TheMonteCarlo]

Peterson looks exponentially better each subsequent appearance and I couldn’t be happier

[@frenchnoodles7546]

@Allie Beth Stuckey what are you trying to achieve? I've seen this specific comment being copied and circulated around multiple comment sections. And @Aion, don't listen to this person.

[@jacobcarro1112]

repent for your sins and believe the gospel of Christ

[@Sonjaic]

"Discipline is a precursor to freedom" Love that!!

[@junior.von.claire]

Freedom requires responsibility to obtain and vigilance to maintain. Discipline is the practice of voluntary enslavement. Ok, fine. I just made these two up.

When my little son was six years old, he saw a fencing-match and decided to learn it. He did. Then, in school, his favourite unit was forging. Now he is 23 and a weapon-smith. A very happy one.

Anicdote about the greek is really fascinating to me. The hebrew word for "sin" is חטא (H'ett) which holds the same meaning in its root. Literally translates to "missing the target".

[@danrocky2553]

These two are the truth tellers of this age. His biblical series is a masterpiece.

I am just about finished Dr Peterson's 2nd book, ive read thr 1st, I listen and watch you tube videos and lessons. Let me say I am a 55 year old grandfather; whom Dr Peterson has helped tremendously in re evaluating so many aspects of life. Its not just the young men and women , for that matter the the good Dr has helped but even and old man like me :) Thank you Jordan!! Please keep up the great work the honest and open conversation And well wishes to you and your family

[@CorvusCorps]

Positive comment for the youtube algorithm! Thank you JP, you continually help me figure out golden tidbits and integrate them into my life.

[@Hato1992]

There is something in what Jordan said. Ever since I was kid, I always loved to create things, mostly games. I made platform games, some primitive video games, even sometimes made new rulese to field game etc. And I'm still stuck with it till now.

[@Iodestarr]

In what way has that continued into your adult life? When I was a kid, we'd go and see our cousins every other weekend and everytime we got together we'd take our Lego or toy cars or whatever and also invent games to play with them that involved stat cards, dice, boards etc..(looking back in this moment I just realized we played WH40k with legos before we even knew what that was lol) Now as an adult the most I do in that regard is Dm for dungeons and dragons lol

[@Hato1992]

@@Iodestarr I'm a programmer, which is already a quite creative job, but also I'm game developer.

[@exbladex99]

Peterson was looking for some deeper connection but really warrior culture, sports, and as Jordan said before in a lecture, gadget/machine/weapon obsession, is something that thrills most men.

[@Lukasz.Skowron]

That conversation inspired me to think deeply about my childhood sparks

The rush is also in airsoft and paintball. I don't know why either but it's a very exciting thing to aim and shoot and hit what you aim at, and have something happen because of it. Without blood consequences :p

[@mrknarf4438]

Sin derives from hamartia, ἁμαρτία, "missing the target". One of JP's lectures that struck me most was the one about the human eye and aim, how we have the second best eye in the animal kingdom after the one of birds of pray, how we're the only ones capable of throwing something accurately, how we have such a large sclera (the white part) so other humans can tell where we are looking exactly, how aiming and targets could be all there is to living a good life, in a larger sense... Truly fascinating, a man without something to aim at is a sad man. We're dualistic, we need to be in the present and in the future; just like a step is only accomplished by losing balance; just like an arrow needs an archer solidly planted here but also a target far away there.

[@danielwright6277]

Oh, I remember ice lump & dirt claud fights...painful, but too fun to quit. Laramie isn't Canada, but damn cold none the less...the rule was, you can't cry and tell adults, because they'd stop the fun.

@Dr. Jordan Peterson bruh

[@Snibble]

Again I could like this video within the first sentence! in der beschränkung zeigt sich erst der meister.(one of my favorites lately) Only way to get there is with hard work and then you can look to expand on that first one. Which again is hard work and the hardest work might be to keep playing and knowing you do what you love and to keep your goal in mind and not to stray or get confused along the way.

[@whatsupfamily]

Hard work will never disappoint us 🔥

[@corrick4339]

@@JuanDeDios24 there was a Twitter thread between Peterson and Musk that seemingly ended with it being a plan, or at least a goal, hope it pans out

[@corrick4339]

btw if anyone here has watched the biblical lectures, I'm trying to find a painting he showed during one of them. I believe it has a tree with a fruit, which Jordan Peterson describes as "suffering" and the message is that suffering is what gives life meaning. Anyone have any idea?

[@LLPOF]

I want to be like a combination of these guys. I would be a badass on so many levels.

[@DaveyKanabus]

Do it.

[@theblackspark2644]

[@lfx2mlfx2m8]

I remember a friend from school just like Jocko who was forced to do a couple of months of buearo work in the military after he completed his physical training, he was miserable and to this day I don't understand why he had to do this.

If Jordan Peterson is Red Skull, then he's a better good guy than Captain America could ever hope to be.

[@grimajo]

Sounds like young Jocko was interested in adventure and danger, or the aspect of the hero.

[@RAMPAGE36542]

That’s what it sounds like to me, too!

[@psibarpsi]

After watching a Ted talk, a movie and watching/listening a bunch of other things about Navy SEALs and their stressful, PTSD-inducing lives, it was quite a change to hear Jocko's account of it. Every story does have two sides.

Is Jocko being recruited for Hydra now or what's happening?

[@JosephDeVictoria]

I think there is something specifically in the male brain that is extremely interested in hitting targets. I have always been interested in firearms and shooting, absolutely to the point of obsession similar to your father. Recently I have found that disc golf scratches that same itch and I suspect that is some evolutionary imperative driving that fascination. (hunting? hitting the target?) These sports (and others like them) are overwhelmingly male dominated and it seems like pulling teeth to get women as interested in them as men.

[@Snibble]

I can't deny my father liked to hit the target. Personally I just like photography so yes, I think you might be on to something there.

[@Snibble]

@Dr. Jordan Peterson Yes take my riches; how about galatians 6:7, ezekial 25:17 and Matthew 6:10. Good luck my friend! Better repend before it is too late. 2DAYS could be enough if you get to work right away. Or do you value money above the word of God?

[@icephoenix1024]

Well life supose to be about discipline i think... but not all of the time.

[@miguelcvant5228]

So if i dont know what to do and I read about different things, practice piano, and learn english everyday I should stop doing all of that and focus on 1 single thing all day long? I didnt get the idea

[@Jezpe316]

Pretty much, simplified. You can do everything badly or get good ad 1 thing.

[@daniellewardd]

There’s a video where Peterson talks about creative people and discipline. My understanding of that video is that you should have a primary focus on one thing and everything else is secondary. So, don’t give up piano, English...et cetera 😄

[@Ikaros23]

At some point is time to acept the fact that you might not have a « call/dream», and that it’s time to discipline the art of minimalism and getting rid of the habbits/projects that no longer serve you. This give you the momentum you need to fucus on a few chores and specialise. His point is that it’s better to make this sacrifice than to be to scattered in your focus.

[@jennakarpe2783]

That’s so cool how since a young age all he wanted to do was be a soldier

[@Clartred]

Yeah, it's so cool to be a guy who invades other country and kills civilians! GO US ARMY!

[@Snibble]

He only thought he did. Almost every boy likes to have snow fights and run around with sticks even tho it's allowed less and less which is totally ridiculous! Not everyone convinces himself it's okay to shoot someone you never met in their country because you're told to do so by someone you don't really know for reasons you often don't really comprehend. If you think that's cool.. cool.. I am not blaming anyone who joins the military or saying they 're all bad guys. Most of them are actually good people and military discipline can bring out the best or the worst in people. It's where the focus is.

[@unclefurbiesvoice9902]

"Hard work pays off" is inaccurate. A better phrase may be "Hard work pays off (income-based only)". So It might apply, if you are earning 20-25k+ per year. For those who don't earn or require such income, it does not pay off. You could be working 55 hours a week night and day for years on end, but if you're not in a certain "Income band", it will not pay off. Not in crappy "modern U.K.".

Now I am just a happy psychopath xD

[@Snibble]

Btw.. worms have a ring that marks the line if you can make 2 or not. .. And enough of that. Now I can't swat a bug without feeling a form of disgust and guilt in the core but I'll if they invade my space... and I can get a hold on them.

Wrong! Hard PLAY works. Do what you love or be miserable. If you do what you love, the hard work will follow without fail, and the discipline will be effortless. It's in the word. 'Discipline'. Be a disciple of your passion. Learn, to the best of your abilities, the ins and outs of what interests you most, then work towards the common good with it. It will become you.

Peterson knows nothing of hard work though, or else he'd actually know a thing or two about philosophy and leftists. He knows those things mostly through the prism of Stephen Hicks' "Explaining Postmodernism", one of the most slanted, poorly-researched, and ideological books I've ever read. I mean, get your OWN opinion on the matter. That is to say, do the work to make up your own mind about it.
