"Sacrifice What Is Holding You Back" | Jordan Peterson

Jordan Peterson explains why you should sacrifice what is holding you back! He starts of by SAYING "Let's say you're miserable and unhappy. Okay, here's a cure, find what's valuable and let it go. So we could say, well, maybe it's a relationship that you have. Maybe it's a relationship with your parents. But one of the things that you might ask yourself once, you know that is that if you're suffering dreadfully, then one possibility is that you're so fixed on the point you're so fixed on a point. The fact that you're so fixed on the point that you're fixed on might be integrally related to why things are going so catastrophically wrong,...( THERE IS MORE ON THE VIDEO)
Essentially, Jordan Peterson goes off on how you should let things that either don't serve or of cause you to suffer go.

About the Channel:
Welcome to wise advice motivation. Our Goal is to produce compelling inspirational and educational videos that tackle major areas of life such as relationships, self-help and so much more.
How we work:
This is a channel that is solely aimed at producing self-development videos with the goal of motivating, inspiring, and educating its viewers. The videos we produce have elements like visuals, audio, and background music Which are not owned by us. But thanks to the fair use policy we are able to use clips e.g. from interviews and Jordan Peterson's lectures and transform them by adding commentary in the form of animation and video footage. Here is how we work. Our editors brainstorm video ideas, then analyze hours of interviews and videos across youtube. After finding the clips, we then stitch them together, add music to provide an immersive experience and commentary in form of video footage and whiteboard animation. This commentary helps transform the video to be unique as well as gives the original clips a new perspective. We also add text animations to emphasize important messages in the video.

I have been down trodden..by my family ..

[@ashandwit]

I rarely burn bridges, but when I do, it is because the TOXIC NATURE of the person I'm leaving is not in dispute; I've had people in my life for decades, and failed to cut them out, and the thing IS--- they NEVER learn. Many never get any better, they just get WORSE.

[@bridgettemitchell1983]

Exactly John and it only holds you back! I realized this myself and almost drove myself crazy, but then I had tried something.. letting go. and the release was unreal and then I went back and there was pain again. Its like no matter how much we know the solution if were not willing to go we will suffer tremendously because of others and the TOXICITY they hold within. The difference is they are not seeking the truth so in turn they ARE suffering and don't know it and they will only continue to release suffering on anyone they encounter its a sad cycle that can only be broken through sacrifice. JP hit the nail on this!

Sometimes parents bring children to this world and don't understand the meaning or responsibility or even the basic meaning of respect with life. Some just bring children to this world in order for them to learn the price of life but not the meaning. A part of parents are mental in disorder. Life it's wonderful but ....society it's self an disorder momentum and it's in our hands the way we create it or handle it.

[@siriosstar4789]

Ok, good advice . Now extend that line of thinking to the entire individual personality that we call our identity. Almost everyone is fixated on who and what they think they are as years of experience and knowledge while overlooking what these experience appear inside of as still and peaceful alertness or consciousness that is awake to itself . Shift your identification on to that lively unmanifest awareness and the relative parts of our personalities become a secondary feature that cannot over shadowed by subject peace.

Out of the 4 children my mother had, I, the only daughter, was her target. Physical, emotional, it was a constant torture. The day she was caught by husband 3 I thought it may end, sadly it did not. My brothers started to see. No one help[ed me. I left home the day after I graduated high school. I was in and out, always hoping she would love and approve of me, she physically slapped me across the fact 2 months before she died and it was only then I knew it was finally over.

What if the thing you feel you need to sacrifice is yourself? I'm staring into the barrel and I don't know what to do. Everything I've done I've done for others, even going to so far as to cut myself off from parts of my humanity and all I have left is the rage. It's always there. Screaming inside my head. Please help me. I'm so scared. I've devoted my life to others. But I can't live for myself.

I find it's helpful to take things to their extreme to see if it's reasonable or sustainable. So for this, let's abandon everyone in our family. Everyone is on their own. I'm not interested in making you happy and you aren't interested in making me happy. Where does that lead us?

Like belief in superstitious mythological nonsense? I'm all for it but presume this hurdle being imagined far too high for quite a few "adults", given the comments below.

[@Guerilla30892001]

First, Jordan, look up the definition of the word "sacrifice"?? "Giving up something of lesser value, to gain something of greater value" So, yeah, you lose. But you decide what you gain, by being willing to lose? The gain is so much greater than the loss. So, where's the "gain" part of this lecture??

[@bridgettemitchell1983]

I think you gain your true self. Meaning for life, if you pay deeply enough attention this will unfold itself and make complete sense to you

[@Guerilla30892001]

@@bridgettemitchell1983 My point, Bridgette (which I obviously didn't make clear) is that you have to decide that it is you "giving up/sacrificing" benefits that don't mean that much to you. In exchange for benefits that mean so much more to you? If the decision is yours, then, there should be no regrets. If your allowing things to be taken away from you? Nothing will compensate "you or me" for that loss. Why (should) "I" need Jordan Peterson to explain/justify "my" priorities to "me"?
