Your Potential Future Self: How To Apply Jungian Psychology To Your Life

[@the_famous_reply_guy]

As a Jungian I can reduce it further by simply saying, be authentic and radically truthful with oneself as often as possible, your abilities, skills, talents, faults, failures, flaws, adjust until satisfied, once satisfied or unsatisfied start again, never stop, never mind, never give up.

[@fabiofanucci]

I believe in evolution and biology. I don't think you can reach anything you decide to pursue. There are things that you can not get simply because you don't have enough physical and intellective qualities. The idea that one has to discover what he can and wants to become in order to then reach that particular self is as fascinating as it is illusory. It is the objective reality that determines what one can become.

[@Grazzmazzium]

​@@fabiofanucci evolution and biology exist in the same realm as the metaphysical

[@Grazzmazzium]

​@@fabiofanucci the objective reality is only what it is in the current moment lol, our idea of individual rights is not biological

@@Grazzmazzium ​ @Jonathan D Metaphysics is one of the many ideas of the human mind which is itself biology. Everything is biology and physics, even meta-physics. In that sense they belong to the same realm.

From my lowest point of depression and suicidal ideation to showing up for myself daily, walking with faith and even developing new friendships and improving the ones I have.

@@gilil1696 A person would have to be a lunatic to think of a nerdy bloke like JP as a messiah. Jung believed Nietzsche went mad because he though he could become a god. (identify too strongly as the wise old man archetype). JP might need to watch out for that one.

Thank you so much Dr. Peterson, I have read the works of Carl Gustav Jung for a while and when I stumbled upon your lectures way after, also a while back, was a great find! You’re so literate and live up to your own expectations of taking advantage of “The Self”; listening to your understanding of this information is such a breath of fresh air, being able to interpret Carl Gustav Jung’s work in a more comprehensive manner is no easy task. Thank you Dr. Peterson, keep on spreading the truth.

Well said, Dr. Peterson. Negotiating with yourself (you on one end of the table and on the other end all your multitude of moods, feelings, needs & desires on the other end) is probably worse than with any child as your are forever locked in some sort of negotiation and the worst thing about it is that you are stuck with this 'cast of characters' forever. If you are going to institute any LASTING change to your personality, you;ve got to negotiate from the position of PERMANENCE, otherwise you'll be back at the table every single time you've have something hard to do. - and the price gets more and more expensive each time you revisit the unsavory task. Very tough nut to crack, let me tell you. Worse than Union Negotiations. """All the Haruchai joined their minds together and out of their common strength forged the metal of the Vow - unalloyed and unanswerable, accessible to no appeal or flaw, unambergrised by the promise of any uncorrupt end: a Vow like the infernal oath upon the river of death which binds even the gods. This they wrought out of the extremity and innocence of their hearts, to match the handiwork of the Giants and the mastery of the Lords. As they spoke the hot words - Ha-man rual tayba-sah carab ho-eeal - the ground seemed to grow hot and cognizant under their feet, as if the Earthpower were drawing near the surface to hear them. And when they brought their Vow around full circle, sealing it so that there was no escape, the rocks on which they stood thundered, and fire ran through them, sealing their bones to the promise they had made.""" ~SR Donaldson .

He is making me stop and really look at these things.

But in terms of his impact on individual lives, I’ve gotta hand it to him. He’s doing great work there.

Some people thrive on philosophy, others on objectivity. The neuroscience counterpart of his argument is deriving dopamine from the subjective framing of efforts (usually repulsive) as a positive thing and thus finding pleasure in work from limbic friction. This is the neuroscience of a growth mindset that allows us to persevere through failures and the older part of the brain hates failures. Philosophical stuff doesn't work for me as much as the nitty gritty of neuroscience because it gives a more concrete reason than some observed results found in the literature. The same reason why religious scriptures do not convince me to refrain from sex, drugs, and other hedonistic stuff as much as the fear of screwing up the dopaminergic pathways does.

the mistakes don´t disapear or dimisish. They become new mistakes in a more mature person. Big and serious mistakes happen due to lack of knowledge, but they can also happen due to trust in our experience and knowledge. On the other hand, one thing is to grow and mature in life. And another is that with each new decision, relationship or project, we start over again. Learning is a drive, es Pulsión, it´s a beat. We can see the example with Moses himself in the Old Testament. At the end of the entire journey and having guided and interceded for his people, he makes a great mistake for himself and is denied entry to the promised land.

[@stevenjbeto]

I am experiencing the lessons presented right now in my life. I struggle to sit down and meditate for half an hour a day as advised. It often happens that Dr. Peterson’s videos come at a time I need the clarification he offers. Sometimes I hate how he’s always right and timely😏.

Hi I have no idea how this may be responded to But I had a boyfriend who I really loved and who I brought deep into my emotional life in a way I hadn’t ever before. I was working a wonderful job that simply wasn’t for me, I had worked there for three years and essentially it felt like a moot spending of time. However, i was also in the midst of potentially moving out of state when I met this person. I wondered … four months into dating, this person I really grew to see and love this person. He eventually asked me if I wanted to leave my job and work for him until I get on my feet in a new career Truthfully I felt weird that this person offered that. I could see the good intention I guess but I also felt that there was something odd about a partner seeing you as so much less … aligned in career and perhaps competent that this person would offer that which in reality may have been the case but didn’t know if this was also a move to control me to keep my presence in the same state I shared I didn’t want that, but I didn’t explain why because I felt so offended and didn’t want to … bring to the surface the issues underlying that offer But I now realize that’s exactly what you need to do in relationships. Either way, I tried to avoid the question over the next few days and then felt the tension and instead of dealing with the issues and do the extremely hard parts I just gave in and said okay And I immediately regretted it I felt a lack of respect and almost… camaraderie w my boyfriend. But as I am navigating reflecting on this I need to know / & am evaluating - perhaps this was a kindness that I took for granted or if I was simply weak in defending myself and lost the love of my life by not battling out my values to be respected while also learning how to really receive and give love / support

[@afreespiritpoetandking261]

The bigger problem is that Peterson peddles Christendom and Jung. Jung was not Christian but viewed things totally differently. I've started studying Jung and I've realized he's more interesting than anyone. I couldn't care less about Christendom after having studied Jung. Jung's theories saved my life, his view of the archetypes.
