Jordan Peterson Arguments, If you could configure your life so that you…

- - - - If you do that assuming that your society isn't entirely corrupt you will be successful - it will aid you practically (you will rise to the top of the dominance hierarchy; you will be selected by woman; you will be admirable; you will be valued)
    - - You dont know and it is poorly articulated, but that doesn't mean it isnt trying to manifest itself and make itself known to you - the purpose fo religious education - to make that ideal articulated.
- - - - You have to take your future self into account. The you that is out there in the future is sort of like another person so you need to negotiate with yourself properly with relationship to your future self.
        
        People are broadcasting information all the time how you should act in the world so that they can tolerate being around you. (You need that because if you are socially isolated you become insane and then you are dead - we cannot maintain our own sanity without continual feedback from other people because it is too complicated)
- - - - A man has to decide that he is going to do something.
        
        People will carry a heavy load if they get to pick the load.
- - - - The attainment cannot be the thing that drives you because it collapses the game.
      - You have to have an aim - it also means that you have to have an interpretation. It also means that the nobler the aim, the better your life.
        
        Why act morally and not twist the fabric of reality to serve your short term needs?
        
        You destabilise yourself and things become chaotic and if you don't have a noble aim then you will become consumed by shallow, trivial pleasures that cannot sustain you and because life is so difficult it makes life unbearable - once you become desperate, things go from bad to worse.
        
        What is the noble aim?
        
        It is to pay attention, speak properly, confront chaos, make a better world.
- - - - If you are an integrated person, what you believe and what you cat out are the same thing.
    - - That there is a divine power that watches over everything and is fundamentally ethical
        
        Are you making all the sacrifices which would be required of this belief?
