True! I'm trying to collect as much usefull information as possible into my brain, while my life is temporarily delayed due to depression... maybe should call it social/emotional burned-out. Everything has advantages & disadvantages. I learn a lot during my lifebreak, so why people tread it always as something negative? Taking my rest, recover, learn and expanding my brain with valuable information.... And this all while having a depression. Free and just one click away for everyone interested its a bless ❤

Average means all kind of different things, but when it comes to intelligence humility is key to learning among other things. Fortunately or not, having above average intelligence doesn't equal being a good person, and, more often than we might think, being able to conceptualize complex things can lead further away from truth rather than close to it.

[@alexnioo2679]

Reason why I love Andrew is not only does he go into detail, he understands the multiple education levels of his audience, not everyone is a neuroscientist and Andrew understands that and helps guide us through his knowledge which makes it so much easier to understand. He just words things perfectly

[@lj32920]

I've noticed that, too. But he also knows how to talk with other educated people at the same time. That is, someone like Dr. Peterson, who likes to interrupt, ask questions, offer opinions, and tell about his own experiences, might make a guest feel he is showing his own education and experience and positions, but Dr. Huberman doesn't exhibit any annoyance, but agrees with Dr. Peterson and brings him into the conversation, explaining how he illustrates a point Dr. Huberman is trying to make. Then he makes sure the listeners can understand their discussion. He really is a superior teacher and science popularizer.

[@Rohrfiedel]

i personally think that dr. Peterson does a even better job in that, meaning, putting very complicated things in a few but simple words…thats the art of teaching

[@Iamthatknows]

Yes, I agree that. Because I have got known many things through Andrew Huberman videos. But I personally cannot understand Peterson's words

[@CalmBeforeTheStorm76]

I'm one hour into this podcast... and already, I have to say, (despite having to replay sections multiple times so I can follow along) this is one of the most beneficial, productive, and insightful podcasts I've ever heard. I'm so grateful that Peterson is allowing Huberman to elaborate and complete full ideas before he jumps in. In exercising that restraint, the brilliance of their collaboration shines through, covering inspiring new ground in the world of functional psychology, psychiatry, and neurology. Without a doubt, this is Jordan Peterson hitting the mark for what discussion/long form conversation is capable of. New thoughts and perspectives abound from these truly brilliant pioneers, not only adding onto the body of knowledge in their respective fields, but letting people in to see what that process looks like in real time. This is podcasting at its very best.

I’m a 56 year old female that’s been medicated and depressed since I was a teen. Listening to this one video has just opened my eyes and expanded my knowledge more than any therapy and medication has ever given me. I guess I have a dopamine high. 😊 Thank you gentlemen. I’m grateful for you both. ❤ 🙏🏼 🕊

Seen "A Brief Look at Peterson - SOME MORE NEWS"? A Video that makes specific Points??

[@chris_losin_it]

@@nenmaster5218 Your reply has nothing to do with my comment. But to answer your motivated question, I have to say… It’s hard to stay engaged in someone that only shows 3 hours worth of clips and pieces that are edited, specifically and carefully, by someone that clearly has a motive to use sarcasm, jealousy and hatred to try and discredit another human being. Dr Peterson has spent his life studying to understand what few have been able to do. Dr Peterson has helped millions to be able to take and cope with yet, one more day, because of something he has said in a lecture, a book or speaking engagement. Everyone can’t understand his work, and that’s ok. However, from someone who has been suicidal, in the darkest depths of despair for over 40 years, I’m thankful for the wisdom I can obtain from extraordinary humans that understand the psyche and the neuroscience of human interactions. Some, like myself, need to see that there is good, that there is kindness and especially feel that there is hope in this world. That we are and will be ok. So that even if I have to wake up again tomorrow, it may not feel as wretched as the previous day.

[@ChrisjayH1]

If you'd like to organize your life with more of those 'microgoals' in mind, I can highly recommend 'how to fail at nearly everything and still win big' by Scott Adams. He doesn't talk about dopamine per se, but his whole discussion of daily systems vs big goals might be really up your alley!

[@lj32920]

Wow, Dr. Peterson, I wish I had met you in person 30 years ago. I was a female soldier who experienced an event on duty in another country that sent me on this terrible PTSD road that lasted until a couple years ago. A miserable time of flashbacks, nightmares, and sensitivity to other people that kept me more or less a recluse with little human contact for many years. I'm 75 now. Nobody knew what causes PTSD or how to treat it. Or rather they tried all kinds of drugs and remedies that just about killed me. If somebody had talked to you about your clinical experiences, I might have responded positively and had a normal life that included a husband and children. And, you know, shopping or church or other places involving other humans. You must have been an answer to prayer for all kinds of people with uncontrolled fear or recurring unfortunate emotions they couldn't control. What a wonderful contribution to health and science you must have been throughout your career. A good life to look back on. Good for you.

[@TheKiwibirder]

As someone who grew up as a child of an alcoholic, I developed the classic habit of "catastrophizing," or always imagining the worst possible outcome in any situation. I always imagined the worst so that I would never feel disappointed. I was also proactively attempting to exempt myself from the emotional distress that would ensue when something bad happened. ("Oh well, I KNEW that was going to happen...") I now realize that, by trying not to anticipate anything good, I was protecting myself from the truly profound letdown that occurs when an anticipated good does not materialize. Sadly, while it certainly served a purpose, it's a lousy way to live, and a habit that is very difficult to break.

[@secondlifeafterdeath]

This video is spectacular. What I understood from this in simple terms is that life is a process. When going through life, you have to set small achievable goals to keep the dopamine flowing. When you set too high of expectations, you feel defeated and are less likely to continue or try again. If your process is weak, you will have failed or have weak results. When analyzing your goal, write down your intent. Form a list of everything that makes sense to you in your process. Keep the tasks that are significant, and cut out the "noise" or insignificant tasks. When your process is perfect, your outcome will be perfect. In life, we all make mistakes. Forgive yourself for what went wrong and learn from your experience.

I can vouch for the incredible effect of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex stimulation that Andrew describes at timepoint 0:24:00. My stimulation event was a little misunderstanding in a bar that led to me and another man pulling knives out, followed immediately by bar patrons pulling us apart. Less than a minute later, it was my turn at the pool tables, and since I wasn't going to give up my turn in spite of a near-death experience, I went over to the table. In spite of being a novice, I sank nearly every shot I took and played the best game of pool in my entire life. If anyone wants to try this, it is incredible... but I'd recommend transcranial magnetic stimulation over nearly getting killed in a knife fight.

1:07 - Meditation - I am exactly the person you are talking about here. A few years ago I had a full on nervous break down characterized by panic attacks that included suicidal imagery. It felt like part of my own mind was plotting to kill me. Very luckily we had a workplace psychotherapist at the time and my co-worker who saw me burst into tears at the copy machine dragged me down to see her. She encouraged me to take a meditation class through the university extension program and it really did help me figure out what the conflict was and at least partially resolve it. It took me at least a year to start to feel like a functional person again and there were other things that helped. I still don't feel like I am as strong as I was before the nervous breakdown 6 years later but, I am off meds and am able to consistently do my rosary every day and consistently functional. No bursting into tears at the copier and very little suicidal imagery.
