The first time I ever went to go and see Peterson talk live, he got asked this question, and this person said, The depth of my consciousness causes me to suffer.

Is it a blessing or a curse to feel everything so very deeply?

I was like, give that person a podcast.

Whoever asked that question, phenomenal question, right?

And Peterson thought for a moment, and he said, the only way out is through.

You take more of the thing that poisons you until you turn it into a tonic that girdles the world around you.

I was like, that's awesome.

Only he would say that.

Yeah, it's fairly like apocalyptic piece of life advice.

But one thing I'm not getting, there's a big difference between letting people do something for themselves and saying men should be dangerous.

By dangerous that implies I should be ready to threaten someone, to hurt somebody.

No, you should be capable of it.

But that doesn't mean you should use it.

There's nothing to you otherwise.

Like if you're not a formidable force, there's no morality in your self-control.

If you're incapable of violence, not being violent isn't a virtue.

People who teach martial arts know this full well, right?

If you learn a martial art, you learn to be dangerous, but simultaneously you learn to control it.

Both of those come together.

And the combination of that capacity for danger and the capacity for control is what brings about the virtue.

Otherwise, you confuse weakness with moral virtue.

I'm harmless, therefore I'm good.

It's like, no, that isn't how it works.

That isn't how it works at all.

If you're harmless, you're just weak.

And if you're weak, you're not going to be good.

You can't be.

Because it takes strength to be good.

It's very difficult to be good.

A harmless man is not a good man.

A good man is a very, very dangerous man who has that under voluntary control.

And you know, you also see that like one of the central female stories, let's say.

If the hero archetype is the central male story, There are variants of hero archetypes that are relevant to women

and one of them is Beauty and the Beast and you know Beauty isn't

Interested in the guy who isn't the Beast She's interested in the guy who's the Beast and that's exactly right, but she's interested in the guy who's the Beast that can be

Civilized and disciplined right and who can use that in the service?

Well, let's say of a family and and that's exactly exactly, well, that's exactly how it should be.

Well, I also think that that's part of what makes a world peaceful in the final analysis, because if you're around people who are dangerous but disciplined,

then everyone watches their step, and that's exactly what should happen.

Everybody should watch their step, and if there's no reason for that,

then, well, there's no sanction for poor behavior, for example.

You write in the book, there is no faith and no courage and no sacrifice in doing what is expedient.

What do you say to those viewers that don't pursue their dreams and are locked in their careers

because they are too afraid to take risks and pursue something meaningful?

Well, the first thing I would say is, well, you should be afraid of taking risks and pursuing something meaningful.

But you should be more afraid of staying where you are if it's making you miserable.

It's like the first thing you want to do is dispense with the idea

that you get to have any permanent security outside of your ability to contend and adapt.

It's the same issue with children.

It's like you're paying a price by sitting there being miserable.

You might say, well, the devil I know is better than the one I don't.

It's like, don't be so sure of that.

The clock is ticking.

And if you're miserable in your job now and you change nothing in five years, you'll be much more miserable and you'll be a lot older.

It's painful to understand how much of what you're doing isn't productive So I'll give you an example.

So how much time do you waste?

So then I get the class to vote.

How many of you waste?

10 hours a day It's like 10% of the kids will put up their hands

and it's interesting because I don't define what constitutes waste I just asked the question so they're diagnosing themselves, right?

I'm not saying you're wasting 10 hours a day.

I'm just asking it's like given your own attitude Attitude, how much time are you wasting?

10 hours a day.

It's like 10% of the people put up their hands.

Well, when you get to like 6 hours a day, 80% of the people put up their hands.

It's like, okay, 6 hours a day.

It's 42 hours a week.

So let's call that a work week, 40 hours a week.

Let's say, what's your time worth?

You're a university student.

Well, it's certainly worth minimum wage, because obviously.

But it's worth way more than that, because if you spend a productive hour when you're 20, then you gain the benefits of that hour for the rest of your life.

So there's the compounding effect of time spent when you're young.

So I say, well, let's assume your time's worth 50 bucks an hour, which I think is an underestimate, but whatever.

Let's call it 50.

We could call it 25, but we'll call it 50.

That's $2,000 a week you're wasting.

It's $100,000 a year.

It's like, how much better would your life be if you weren't wasting $100,000 a year?

It's like, what is that over 40 years?

$4 million.

It's like, you're rich.

You don't even know it.

Quit wasting time by your own definition.

It's like people shake their heads.

Like, well, I never thought about it that way.

It's like, yeah, think about it that way.

Don't waste your damn life.

And then you think, well, why would people be resistant to that message?

It's like, well, you really want to wake up and figure out that you're wasting half your life.

And you know, So when people do that kind of wasting, they actually hate it.

It's painful to recognize that.

Then it's painful to think, oh my god, look how undisciplined I am.

I don't know anything.

I can't use a schedule.

I can't stick to a calendar.

I don't have any aims.

I don't know anything about the world.

And maybe there's a part of me that's bitter

100

because I haven't got everything already and I'd just like to say to hell with it.

101

That's the recognition of the Jungian shadow.

102

That's what makes you vicious and untrustworthy.

103

All of that wants to look at them and no bloody wonder.

104

I have this friend and this story really hit me.

105

So during the pandemic, running a podcast, I was able to have the thing that I feel I'm good at,

106

my artistic pursuit and outlet that was available for me to continue.

107

It was actually increased because I didn't have other stuff to do.

108

I have a friend that's a barber and he got a job at a supermarket.

109

Barbers shut down for a long period of time

110

and he got a job at a supermarket stacking shelves overnight

111

and i asked him i was like man how are you

112

how are you finding the new job it's a big a

113

big change he's like do you know what it is i

114

actually don't mind the work i don't mind the people

115

that i work with but man i miss being good at something right right right well dude

116

that hit me yeah

117

so hard right i missed being good at something yeah yeah

118

well people need the opportunity to be good at something it

119

so then you might ask yourself well what's the best antidote to the discomfort of life.

120

And you might say, well, it's comfort.

121

And I suppose that's what you act out when you swaddle a baby.

122

But a better antidote is something like adventure to excellence.

123

And that's far better antidote to suffering than the mere absence of suffering.

124

So not to say that the mere absence of suffering, that's not nothing.

125

You know, Dostoevsky said that every man was responsible for everything he did

126

and and for everything that everyone else does

127

which is kind of an insane statement

128

but also somewhat it's true in in in a certain sense you do have an indefinite responsibility

129

and you do have an indefinite capacity to bear that responsibility

130

but that doesn't mean it can't be crushing and then i would say the antidote to that is that

131

you're not in this alone.

132

As your responsibilities mount and your opportunities increase, you have to delegate.

133

It's important that you do everything you can, but there's enough for everyone to do.

134

And so you might say, well, the heroic path is one that leads to universal redemption.

135

And that's true.

136

And you might say, well, that's all on you.

137

It's like, it is in a sense, but then the problem that you just described comes up.

138

Shouldering too much burden.

139

Well, it can crush you.

140

It can be unsustainable.

141

You can torture yourself for not doing it well enough.

142

And it is up to you, but it's not up to you alone.

143

It's not up to you alone.

144

The fundamental issue is that life is tragic and difficult, very tragic and difficult for everyone.

145

And it's also tainted by malevolence, because no matter how things are tragic and difficult, but there's always some stupid thing that you could do

146

or someone else could do that could make it even worse than it has to be.

147

So that's life and you need an antidote to that because

148

that can embitter you Constant contact with that just the tragedy but the tragedy combined with betrayal and malevolence

149

That makes it even worse Especially if it's self-induced Okay, so you need something to set against that so you don't get bitter and resentful

150

What do you set against that doing something worthwhile by your own definition?

151

Say you need some reason to get the hell out of bed on a terrible day

152

because you've got something good to do Well, what's the best thing you can do?

153

Transcend your current wretched and miserable self.

154

There's meaning to be found in that, and real respo- and that's a meaning that's associated with responsibility.

155

There's been this attempt to identify masculine competence and power, let's say, but mostly competence with tyranny,

156

and that's very, very hard on young men.

157

It's also hard on young women, for that matter, but it's very helpful for people to hear

158

that they should make themselves competent and dangerous dangerous and take their proper place in the world.

159

Competent and dangerous?

160

Why dangerous?

161

Because it's the alternative to being weak.

162

And weak is not good.

163

The people who shoot up the high schools, they're weak.

164

They're weak.

165

How is it good to be dangerous?

166

Because it makes you formidable.

167

And life is a very difficult process.

168

It's not for, you're not prepared for it unless you have the capacity to be dangerous.

169

That doesn't mean that you should be cruel.

170

It doesn't mean any of that.

171

There's a statement in the New Testament, the meek shall inherit the earth.

172

But the meek isn't well translated.

173

It means something more like, those who have swords and know how to use them but keep them sheathed will inherit the world.

174

You have to be powerful and formidable and then peaceful in that order.

175

And that's not the same as being naive and weak and harmless, which is what young men are being encouraged to be.

176

It's like, that's a very bad idea.

177

It's a very bad idea.

178

Because naive, weak and harmless means that you can't withstand the tragedies of life.

179

You can't bear any responsibility.

180

You'll end up bitter.

181

And when you get bitter, then you get dangerous.

182

It's okay to be a man.

183

It's not okay.

184

It's necessary.

185

What the hell are we going to do without men?

186

You look around the city here, you see all these buildings go up.

187

These men, they're doing impossible things.

188

They're under the streets, working on the sewers.

189

They're up on the power lines in the storms and the rain.

190

They're keeping this impossible infrastructure functioning.

191

this thing that works in a miraculous manner.

192

They work themselves to death.

193

And often, literally, the gratitude for that is sorely lacking, especially among the people who should be most grateful.

194

You see university professors, especially of the social justice bent, who are among the most protected and privileged people that the world has ever produced.

195

They take everything they have for granted, failing to understand entirely that there's a massive infrastructure of unbelievably hard-working,

196

solidly laboring, working-class men breaking themselves in half on a regular basis,

197

making sure that everything that always breaks works.

198

And so a little gratitude for that is in order.

199

And it's very useful to tell everyone, not just men, that they have an an important role to play,

200

a necessary role, and that if they act properly and honestly and forthrightly,

201

that they can put their lives together and they can help their families, and they can make their communities better,

202

and that that's not toxic masculinity.

203

That appalling phrase.

204

It's what keeps the world going round.

205

But isn't it a luxury to pursue what is meaningful?

206

Our viewers have mortgages, they have children, they have payments and loans.

207

It's a luxury to pursue because we lack the resources.

208

Well, I don't think, I don't remember now, I'm not talking about what makes you happy.

209

It's a luxury to pursue what makes you happy.

210

It's a moral obligation to pursue what you find meaningful.

211

And that doesn't mean it's easy.

212

It might require sacrifice.

213

If you need to change your job too, let's say you have family and children and mortgage, you have responsibilities.

214

You've already picked up those responsibilities.

215

You don't just get to walk away scot-free and say, well, I don't like my job.

216

I quit.

217

That's no strategy.

218

But what you might have to do is you think, well, this job is killing my soul.

219

All right, so what do I have to do about that?

220

Well, I have to look for another job.

221

Well, no one wants to hire me.

222

It's like, okay, maybe you need to educate yourself more.

223

Maybe you need to update your curriculum vitae, your resume.

224

Maybe you need to overcome your fear of being interviewed.

225

Maybe you need to sharpen your social skills.

226

Like, you have to think about these things strategically.

227

If you're going to switch careers, you have to do it like an intelligent, responsible person.

228

That might take you a couple of years of effort.

229

One of the things that I've been trying to lay out clearly is that life is hard.

230

It's tainted by malevolence and betrayal.

231

That can make you bitter.

232

You need a meaning to offset that.

233

Where's the meaning to be found?

234

Not in rights, not in impulsive pleasure, but in responsibility.

235

You take responsibility for yourself, so you take care of yourself.

236

If you're good at it, you have some excess left over to take care of your damn family.

237

If you're good at both of those, then you have some excess left over to take care of your community.

238

Those are heavy burdens.

239

You pick up the burdens, you find that's meaningful.

240

The best way to pick up the burden is to continually improve yourself, and that's where the meaning is to be found.

241

And so that meaning is in the continual self-transcendence.

242

That's letting your old self die and the new self be reborn.

243

Life is very hard.

244

If you make yourself weak and you suffer stupidly because of it, you will become bitter.

245

And once you become bitter, you will become vengeful.

246

And after vengeful, there is no limit.

247

That's one of the things I learned from studying totalitarianism in the 20th century, because I studied it from the psychological perspective.

248

I wasn't interested in the mass movements.

249

I was interested in the motivations of the cruelest Auschwitz guard.

250

What was he up to?

251

Or the person who went and shot up the elementary school in Connecticut.

252

What was he up to exactly?

253

Just exactly where did he dwell and why?

254

It's like, well, weakness made him suffer stupidly and that made him cruel and that was just the beginning.

255

And so that weakness, that's just, if you make yourself weak by engaging in deceit, if you fail to take responsibility,

256

then you transform yourself into something that cannot bear to endure the structure of existence.

257

And you will torture yourself.

258

And that leads to very bad places.

259

Very bad places.

260

I spoke to David Goggins about this last year, about how I was bullied as a kid, and I was quite unpopular in school, and I was an only child,

261

so I didn't really have many people to back me up, you know, in the school yard or whatever.

262

for a long time had a chip on my shoulder about the kids that mistreated me in school, as you might expect.

263

And then I got toward, you know, maybe a few years ago, and I really, really started to reflect on it and realized

264

that so many of the things that I valued in myself

265

were the light side of something dark that had been created during that time in school.

266

So my complete preparedness to just spend time on my own

267

means that I don't mind about moving out to a country where I don't know anybody

268

and trying to make this podcast thing work or spending hours

269

and hours working or researching or recording podcasts or doing intros or whatever it is.

270

Like all of those things.

271

Not having a super tight social network as a kid meant that I wasn't beholden to anybody when I grew up.

272

That I didn't feel the need to have as much support as I go along to do stuff.

273

Now, other sides of it haven't been so great because I still seek validation.

274

I still seek a lot of validation because that was something that I was missing as a kid,

275

but yeah, realizing not only you probably wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the things that you went through, okay, there's step one, and then step two is,

276

and I'm quite grateful for what I've done, and then step three would be something like,

277

wow, I'm proud of myself for having turned something that was negative into something that's positive, but then another level above that would be,

278

wow, so maybe I should be thankful.

279

Yeah, right.

280

Well, we could put past, present and future in the same bin.

281

Say, well, one of the things that you want to do is practice gratitude.

282

That's one of the primary religious rituals, you might say, is the practice of gratitude.

283

And you might say, well, my life is so horrible.

284

What do I have to be grateful for?

285

And I would say that's, for better or worse, that's still a form of blindness, right?

286

I mean, people can have very, very difficult situations, can be very, very difficult situations.

287

and it's in those difficult situations where the search for gratitude becomes something

288

that is by necessity deeper and more difficult but

289

that doesn't mean it's not appropriate no one there is a very tight association between loving your enemy

290

and being grateful in spite of the terrible things

291

that occur in your life i've been writing about the book of job

292

and job is a story of unjust suffering fundamentally God deems Job a good man

293

so we have it on God's Word that Job is actually a good man

294

and then all hell breaks loose partly because God makes a bet with Satan

295

which is you know a hell of a thing to do

296

and says do your worst he's not going to turn on me no matter what you do and

297

so Job despite his torment he becomes very ill he loses

298

everything he has he becomes ill in a way that's disfiguring his friends come around

299

and laugh at him and tell him that He's a bad man

300

and that's why all these terrible things have been happening to him.

301

It's brutal.

302

And Job refuses to lose faith in himself.

303

He says, look, I'm not perfect.

304

But as far as men go, I've done what I should do.

305

And I'm not being punished in some manner that's obviously related to my sin.

306

It's more like the random play of tragic forces in the world.

307

I'm not going to lose faith in myself no matter what, and I'm also not going to, his wife says, shake your fist at God,

308

curse him, and die, because things have gone so badly for Job, she thinks that's all that's left to him, and he refuses to do that,

309

so he maintains faith, regardless of what's happened to him, and that's really the moral of the story of Job,

310

which is that you are morally obligated to maintain faith no matter what happens to you, and there's a practical side to that,

311

so imagine that God and Satan conspire against you.

312

There'll be times in your life where it feels like that's happening.

313

And then imagine that your reaction to that is to become bitter and resentful and hostile.

314

Well, then whatever hell you're in, merely as a consequence of the confluence of tragic events, you have opened a whole other hell underneath it.

315

The hell of bitterness and resentment and ingratitude.

316

And that turns into the desire for revenge very, very quickly.

317

Think things are bad just because they're bad.

318

You wait till you see how bad they can become if you allow yourself to be corrupted by your unjust suffering.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
