Intellect Versus Openness | Jordan B Peterson

[@bolarinwasikiru6749]

Dr. Peterson, how is your health? I'm your listener and fan from Nigeria 🇳🇬

[@nothanksplease]

Best wishes to Dr. Peterson and his family. They are in my prayers.

[@321456987654321]

I miss you, Mr Peterson. Hope you're doing better

[@anandunambiar1032]

Watching his lecture for 5 minutes is worth hearing my school classes infinity times...

[@BrennanWayneLuther]

High in intellect but not in conscientiousness. Hopefully this year I can better myself and learn to implement my goals.

What's that like by the way does your mind feel pushy does your mind feel like it's on fire is it like mental masturbation to be disagreeable and debate often? Do you often feel the gears in your head running this is what I'm trying to ask

[@andrewwabik5125]

Hey, how’s it go?

[@BrennanWayneLuther]

@@andrewwabik5125 Got a job as a semi-conductor Field Service Engineer without a degree a year ago. Going extremely well. Job requires conscientiousness. Little by little knowing I’ve had to be better at this and falling down and getting back up a million times. My life is honestly completely different from when I wrote this. I’m exactly where I would have liked to be.

[@Frosty-oj6hw]

Nope, but I've seen his lectures so many times that I know them well enough to.

[@kartech6938]

@Psychonaut I strongly disagree with a lot of Dr. Peterson’s views but to insult him on the basis of an adverse mental condition beyond his control is fucking appalling.

Creativity is the capacity to bring unprecedented, named things into existence. Extremely creative people literally make Men out of Marble and Brokenheartedness out of Sound in ways nobody thought possible. Even only slightly creative people can group existing things into new phenomenological entities, like putting a Rock song to clips of a DragonBall Z or using techniques they were trained in to solve a novel problem at work. This is why Parents name their Children, rather than letting them name themselves, or be named by others; and even in cultures where that happens, it is done later as an act of independence from the parents or of submission of the parents to the group ownership of the child. A baby is an unprecedented, named phenomenological entity, and making one is a fundamental act of creation.

[@vitorbowen2347]

95 in Openess and 5 in Intelect

[@wesfin]

2:55 To think creatively is being able to take an idea toss it into the abstract realm and come up with connections to other ideas that seem arbitrary at first but are actually useful and can be explained. Idea analogies/connections/parallels, order/sense/meaning out of abstraction, stepping out of the traditional path and finding a new one out of what initially seems like wilderness/abstraction, being able to apply seemingly unrelated lessons/ideas to the matter at hand and form a useful solution/conclusion.

[@SortingYourselfOut]

I hope you're on the mend Dr. Peterson.

[@haleygray6443]

I have always wondered why Dr. Peterson said in other videos that ADHD can look like being high in openness and vice versa, but ADHD also has a huge impact on Executive functions, especially working memory.... So they should be quite easy to tell apart in theory.... coming from someone with ADHD....

[@martthesling]

Yes, cognitive function and cognitive ability maybe have some overlap.

[@tonygSDWR]

Best wishes to Dr. Peterson and family.

I pray he does well, fighting that dragon. Mostly because I don't think the world's quite ready to be without that intellect-to say nothing of the heart brave enough to teach while so many try to shout him down. They think you hate only because they can't listen long enough to hear the sense. You don't hate women, or any minority, that's clear. But you do teach strength, discipline, responsibility, and rationality. And that's a hard message to listen to for some. So they leave with insults on their lips, and you keep teaching. Yes, even you struggle. Only children believe those they admire are perfect, and you never claimed to be that. You're enough as you are. So go ahead and fight. Bring a little more order to your own body, mind, and heart. Take care of yourself. And all the best to your family as well. After all, what's a man without those who nurture his strength? We're all still here, taking notes. No matter what. Always more to learn.

[@collinelington.8885]

How could I have scored low in intellect if I spend countless hours listening to Dr. Peterson by choice. Or I binge watch Neil Degrassi Tyson, or even like to watch a wide variety of guest on the jre? Is it possibly because I’m school I did so poorly because I didn’t care or never really went in the first place. I’m only 20 but my craving to learn has increased in the time since I graduated. Or have I somehow fooled myself into thinking I want to learn. I scored low in industriousness and maybe I don’t understand that at all but I work on my own car rather than take it to a shop and I don’t know what I’m doing but I always figure it out or atleast the problems so far even if it takes me a bit.

[@paperdoll555]

same here, low score in intellect but i've always been great in science without any effort and as i know i have pretty good iq. I think it might be somewhat correlated with high neuroticism or depression.

I am an INFJ aka: empathetic idealist + analytical thinker. You can be both, they aren't an impossible combination.

[@tamzid5811]

Yes, same

[@ballistixwearesilent5576]

Does one side dominate though?

[@axelsprangare2579]

@@ballistixwearesilent5576 Analytical thinker dominates. I know from experience that trusting your intellect and your deductive reasoning is far more effective at deconstructing and seeing the larger picture of peoples intricacies. If you're too emotional you may easily be influenced by the person your helping and create a need to control them so that you can co exist. To use a metaphor you may want to put the fairy in a bottle and create it's own ecosystem but on your terms and in the process decieve yourself unknowingly into believing that you're helping them when you're not. Narcissists & overprotective moms with an Oedipus complex do this all the time but never realise it. However having an emotional side to you is critical in not becoming too cold hearted and unempathic but also to better gauge others response to your help so you don't decieve yourself like in the mentioned example above or in some other way. Which side dominates also depends on your school of empathy whether it is intellect based or emotions based. My school of empathy is carrier (see HG Tudors work) but I'm also very contingient adopting others feelings. However I am able to seperate them from my own very easily because of my highly developed cognitive emotional dynamics & skills. It's hard to explain but whenever I help someone and empathize with them I just know in my heart what the feeling that offsets me feels and I can correlate that with a thought and a context that's usually accurate and then I process it and put it into practice in the context of the social situation and they usually feel helped in some way. I say usually because I don't want to be arrogant. The biggest common denominator between all narcissists is if they have this system or not and to what extent and if it is subconcious or not and as an extra how it correlates to their behaviour. I am not afraid to confront a narcissist and I have defeated atleast one. My dad. I made him realise his covert narcissist ways, his fuel matrix and how he only saw people as reflections of himself without realising it and completley lacking mentalising ability, how his feelings of insecurity concerning people around him manifested in negative rage filled outbursts & how these feelings were coming from subconcious untrue understandings of lack of control or someone challenging your control and how that need of controll manifested from his narcissistic character traits. And lastly I made him realise that he was in no need of control and how he only wanted it to protect his fuel matrix. He was a very tough nut to crack but I did it thanks to my tenacity and investigative & researching skills. Hope I gave you a good enough answer Ballistix, have a very nice day wherever you are! 😊

[@axelsprangare2579]

@@ballistixwearesilent5576 My biggest obstacle is the negative of how I am emotional however. I can't give up on someone even if it takes me 20 years. I always strive for perfection in others, harmony, well being and hapiness. You only live one life, the only things that matter are the people around you is my philosophy on this subject. Overall however I am a pragmatist philosophy & psychology subscriber. I am also a firm believer in actor network theory and integral theory. My favorite thinkers are: 1. Jesus Christ. (I'm also a christian). 2. Bruno Latour. (Our cosmology etc). 4. Ken Wilber (integral theory). 5. Robert Kegan (developmental psychology).

If by reading you mean books about complex topics, then you are intellectually curious, increasing significantly the probability to have a high IQ.

First to comment.

[@JohnnyRebKy]

Intelligence is a strange thing. During times of war for example, the school idiot can turn into a military genius. Situation seems to produce intelligence that people never knew they had. Being " street smart" used to be the main measure of intelligence in history. Mankind was more focused on survival. You had to be smart to live long enough to become a old man. People with that kind of intelligence don't acquire much cultural and economic success in today's world. Society today judges by academics and social class. I think a time is comming, and perhaps soon, when that is going to change again. Intelligence formed around survival is going to become very, very valuable in the near future. When that day comes the farmer will be the new PhD.
