I like this video

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Pan

I think he’s trying to define himself as an adult and I wonder why he feels he needs to do that. It’s like a guy who’s always trying to define themselves as a straight man. It’s like, nobody really asked! But, this guy has to let everybody know he’s a manly sonofabitch. Maybe he has a big truck with a big German Shepard dog and buys a 12 guage shotgun and smokes big cigars. This guy is trying so hard to appear manly! I’m a manly sonofabitch! Really? But why do you need to try so hard though? Is there something threatening about femininity to you? And then why? Dudes that are comfortable with their masculinity are not threatened by femininity. I wonder why Jordan Peterson is threatened by Peter Pan. There's something in him that's distancing himself from Peter Pan. But why? Michael Jackson loved Peter Pan, right? Michael Jackson was pretty well off dude, he might have been weird, but he was well off. He was a self-sustaining adult. So, I don't get why Peter Pan needs to be transcended to be an adult. I find you wanna preserve your inner Peter Pan. That's one of the secrets of life. Why do you wanna transcend your inner Peter Pan so you can have this husk of fitting into some persona of being an 'adult'. And even in the below video (which I like) I get sense that Jordan Peterson is trying to advance that persona he's created for himself as a defense to thinking of himself as being inadequate. But like I said, the primal man in me likes this video too! But I can see where he goes overboard. Here's the video I'm talking about:

It’s almost like Peter Pan is Jordan Peterson’s shadow. That nerdy boy who’s always trying to pretend he’s a real adult and a real man and a real success. Same thing you gotta watch out for with people who complain about gays a lot — they could be trying to distance their own psyche from an uncomfortable place. I’m not trying to bag on Jordan Peterson, I actually like one of his videos. I’ll post it below:

Why would he have to lie if he believes it? I don't see the lying element. Lying is intentional misrepresentation of what you actually believe. So, if you're a bum on the street asking me for a dollar, I might lie to you and say 'I don't got shit, sorry'. Or, maybe I'm honest and say, 'I do, but I don't want to give you any money'.

I think Leo actually believes what he says. I get that sense. Why would he waste his time putting out crap that he didn't believe in? Yeah, I don't think he would. I think he believes in what he's saying. You may not agree with what he says, but that's a different issue.

If Leo resonates with what he says, then that's not brainwashing. Brainwashing is when someone intentionally manipulates or deceives someone. I get the sense that Leo actually resonates with what he says. And if that's the case, he deserves to be heard.

If Leo actually resonates with what he says, then he deserves to have a voice. I don't mind. He introduced me to Enlightenment and Life Purpose. I was already pretty advanced in Conceptual Understanding when I discovered Actualized 4 years ago. So, I like Leo. I want him to be successful.

Leo admits he’s not Enlightened. Correct me if I’m wrong.

If she's super toxic, you might want to start getting your feelers out for another job. Some people just are toxic, and you can get away from them with the right strategy in hand. But realize too that you're creating a lot of your own misery by being triggered so much. That's what Enlightenment should help you with. But don't think that just because you're Enlightened, that you need to suffer toxic people. No. You can strategically place yourself in a healthier ecosystem. Or you can slowly create your own ecosystem over the long-term by starting your business on the side.

I think Leo beats this horse to death about the Materialist Paradigm in his videos, no? If you wanna hear that argument, watch all of Leo’s videos.

I like your ambition. You sound like me when I was younger. Keep it up. Even if you don’t get it all done, you’re still gonna get a lot of it done. I have a Course of Study that I created for myself and others in my Journals — I think it’s in my Journal Vol. 3 where I start to set it out (see my Profile Page for my Journals). I’ll be working on mine too as you work on yours. Happy working! What you work on is what you improve.

‘Your ultimate goal is to drop all judgment’? That’s not Enlightenment. Stop thinking Enlightenment is a goal to be achieved. Enlightenment is right now. You’re not going to force Enlightenment on yourself through control. That will take you 500 miles in the opposite direction from Enlightenment. You gotta transcend the Paradigm of Control for Enlightenment.

Just to have that assuredness that that’s really your Life Purpose is worth it. When you know what your Life Purpose is, you can lean on that, and it gives a clarity to your life. It’s that certainty that you know that what you’re doing is ultimately sustainable for you. That’s what Life Purpose work gives you — that assuredness that you’re oriented in the right direction.

The issue isn't whether Chakras are real in some external sense, it's whether the system is useful to you. Are Chakras useful to you, that's the only relevant question. Give it a go and find out. Everything else is just distraction.

A good product sells itself. Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door. Steve Jobs understood this. It's all about having an awesome product that people actually really want. And you gotta spend a lot of time getting that product down pat before you release it. This is one of the reasons Apple has degraded post Steve Jobs. They didn't have his input on things. Steve Jobs was a special dude. Sometimes you just can't replicate that. This is why Life Purpose is so important, and it's on you to make sure you're aligned with yours. If you're not aligned with your Life Purpose, you're probably not gonna be great at what you do unless you luck out and fall into something you can be great at. This is one reason I'm always emphasizing how important Life Purpose is to Personal Development. Enlightenment is not the be all end all in Personal Development. Neither is Conceptual Understanding. If you aren't aligned with your Life Purpose, that's a pity. That's too bad for you, ya know. Everybody should have a Life Purpose in their bullpen, even if it's still in the oven. Get that Life Purpose in the oven sooner rather than later. You want Life Purpose on your radar, even if you're still young. When you find your Life Purpose, you set yourself up to be truly world-class at what you do. https://www.actualized.org/life-purpose-course

You do not want to try to control your judging. Enlightenment is not about trying to control.

Is this speculation too? The Ego likes to exempt itself.

Why the lack of videos on Life Purpose? You’ve got this great LP Course that you don't even bother to promote. Life Purpose is just as important to Personal Development as Enlightenment and Conceptual Understanding are.

You're not gonna give up judging. It's who or what you think is judging that will change.
