Words of Wisdom: “Pursue What You Find Meaningful”-Jordan Peterson

This powerful Words of Wisdom clip from psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson is a must watch! It speaks to the importance of going after purpose and meaning in your daily life.

Some consider it a luxury to go after what you find meaningful or your true purpose in life, especially when it comes to jobs. We all have bills and responsibilities to take care of, so I get it. It’s easier said than done. But it’s like Jordan shares in this video. It’s a moral obligation to pursue something meaningful in this life.

I truly believe that you can live your purpose and sustain yourself because plenty of people have done it. I’m almost there myself. It involves a lot of perseverance, courage, and risk, but it’s riskier to me to be stagnant somewhere where you aren’t productive and fulfilled because you aren’t living your purpose. Trust me, I knew and HATED that feeling. I understand doing what you have to do to survive, but the ultimate goal should be to get to where you want to be to THRIVE.

Words of Wisdom: “Stop Wasting Time”-Dr. Jordan Peterson

This Words of Wisdom video today comes from Dr. Jordan Peterson, a clinical psychologist and professor of psychology at the University of Toronto. In the clip, he speaks to students about on time and why it’s so important to stop wasting it. He asks them to think about how much they would be able to accomplish if they made the most of their time instead of letting it fall by the wayside.

I’m so guilty of this! I’m guilty of using most of my weekend chilling and recuperating from the week instead of buckling down to work on my side hustles. I’m guilty of binging shows on Netflix when I could be batching content for this site. I’m guilty of wasting time.

Let’s dream a little bit for a second. Imagine what your life would be like if you stopped procrastinating so much or if you stopped making excuses. Imagine where you could be if you stopped wasting so much time watching TV, on social media, or doing whatever else instead of focusing on your craft. Imagine if you genuinely gave your all to your gifts, passions, and goals.
