Right. This is how people give their power away to people they don’t even know. The internet isn’t God and doesn’t decided when you’ll reach your potential. I enjoy watching Jordan Peterson but he doesn’t know everything either.
....And I'm over here sweating at 24...thinking I'm supposed to know it all. I do care about life and perhaps that's why I feel the way I do, but watching this gives me a little sigh of relief.
He wasn’t talking about knowing it all though. Don’t worry, if you’re on here looking at this, that shows you care and you will become better and better. You’re on the right path.
@@Hope4Life26I’m turning 24 literally the day after I’ve written this comment. But yeah I’m completely clueless and have no idea what i want to strive to be. I went to college for years studying sport and fitness but honestly I’m not sure this is the venture I want. I’m so lost right now
Turning 30 this year and finally got into the career I wanted and worked for all my 20’s. I don’t live in a great area or have a lot of money or friends, but I have a car, I pay my bills and can still go on vacation once a year. I don’t have any friends though, but I have an awesome boyfriend and a cat. I think getting divorced at 22 and having to move back in with my parents helped, life gave me a swift kick in the ass and I decided to get a job I didn’t like until I could get my job now. Your 20’s are not just for having fun and fucking off. You set yourself up now, and you’ll be much better off later, trust me!
When I was 25, I was running the streets partying, bar hopping and clubbing. I wasn't trying to hear nothing about God, Goals & Healthy Relationships. I was immature and wasting my youth away because I wanted to and I didn't care about life at all compared to now because I care about my health. Now in my mid-30's, I'm back on track with my life in general. If I can go back in time, I would undo alot of the poor choices that I made when I was a young man. 💯 I'm not a victim nor looking for sympathy, I'm owning up to myself and my shortcomings. 💪🏽😎
May Allah bless you. I would suggest you to look into Islam if you haven't already. Here is a verse from the Qur'an: وَوَجَدَكَ ضَالًّا فَهَدَىٰ "And He found you lost and guided you."
I wasnt cluess i suffered depression the last 10 years that is what i have been doing. Started my new life at 30 and discovered how life is beautiful and i am full of hope. New jobs means i am also doing stupid things but i know where i wanto to be and i work hard to achive it.
I’m grateful to know my sisters love me, have my back and vice versa. I don’t want to hurt them and despite our rough patches, they are probably the best people for me.
That's what people think of me. I'm 31, no job, can't drive, live alone, no friends or family. I'm poorly, have an illness called ulcerative colitis and have surgery every few months. I'm never well long enough to learn anything as I'm always in hospital for 2/3/4 months at a time. Get home, try heal, get ill again. I'm so stuck I don't know what to do. I'm all alone and living in agony, boredom, and with a desire to achieve more. My body isn't letting me. I have open wounds as I type this that won't heal, they've been open for 6 months. Trapped in bed just bleeding away waiting for the next hospital trip.
I'm so sorry for you.❤ You can make small changes out from bed everyday. First: Try Anthony Williams (Medical Medium) food for your ulcerative colitis. Secondly: Try to make some money online, since you can lie in bed and work. Learn to code, learn social media (Social Media Manager), learn to be a virtual assistant. Thirdly: Read books, Repeat this and believe in you!❤
I was actually in the same trajectory as you. Work at Walmart at age 23, team lead at age 26. But left Walmart for a government job at age 27. Sometimes I wonder if I should stay at Walmart or not. But the job I have now is good
I tell you what most think at this age group 1. Finishing college if they havent done so 2. Buying a first house 3. Getting a JOB, and not staying at a lowercase "job" 4. Getting married and starting a family the right way.
Yeah go on put pressure in yourselves everyone has there own pace i am broke when i was 20-35 noe in 37 but i have my construxtion company 7 cars a house and 10 lots😊
Watching this makes me lose the last bit of confidence I have as a 27 year old still in college. I made bad decisions, but I am trying hard. Stop judging me!
Lots of people MUCH older then you who made h7ge life and career changes and flourished. Never forget that. For christ sake a man by the name of Albert Woodfox spent 43 years in solitary confinement for a murder he did not commit in the worst prison in the U.S and spenr his time helping fellow inmates and fighting for civil liberties and came out of prison as an old man looking forward to a future. All YOU have to do is achieve something fractional of what he did to make a half decent life for yourself!
KOKO. Keep on Keeping On. I retrained through online college aged 46. I now have a job and a more stable future. I wish i was 27 again with those options available to me.
I was employed at 24 then got fired from that job 5 months after my 25th birthday and it took me another 5 months to get a new job. Don’t feel bad for being unemployed at 24 you will get a job again.
Also I was a graduate of my certificate program at 24 but not my degree program and news flash I’m still not done with the degree program at where I sit now at 30.
@@Mayank_Bais hey update I’m 31 now and decided maybe I’m good with the education I have, plus I’ve been working for a while on starting a business now. I’m looking for a pathway to a more stable life.
I graduated at 27 years old and now i got a job. Not a rich man, but i make enough to get a car and a place with roomies that get along pretty well. Started to save so I can one day get married and build a family. Never give up bro you got this. We got this. Just take a small step at a time.
I threw a decade of my life away to drugs (16-26). At 26 I got clean off of everything and over the past year have worked so hard to make up for lost time. I’ll be 27 in two months and I’m still going, still working hard to make up for lost time. I have this goal to be where I need to be, where I should be by 30. It does feel like a sacrifice, but I wish I’d made it sooner.
I am 28 now, and I can relate this video very well As i am in my late 20s now I am still figuring out myself with my life. I had thought that by 25 I would have a stable job and have a long rerm relationship but even now also i am not having both. I realize that there is no such thing as perfect age to settle down in career and have a stable relationship. Each and everyones journey is different. The only difference which I feel now unlike when I was 22 is that I have become more mature and now I view things at a different angle as compared to before. Now I am more choosy about the people with whom I vibe and with certain choices I make
I am 22 😢it means what I am interested now will disappear at 28 as I want eating I want adventures I want travel beautiful places but financially not able but I am anticipating to be well at 28 but no need as I would change my interest like you
@@GAMEISON-CR7 Never let age stop you from achieving what u want and what you wish to do. Yes in 20s we generally wish to explore life as much as possible as we have less responsibilities but that should never stop no matter whether u cross 30, 40 or even more. Age is just a number to feel young and energetic.
All my time at Uni I stressed out about this, especially because it took me waaay longer to finish than expected. Now at 27 I started my job and it feels like all the time was worth it and I made a huge leap that I only noticed now. Life is still a struggle but the growth is real and it goes on and on.
It's not too late ❤️ I don't know what your situation is, but really honing in on what you want to change and making habits to support it have been helpful for me. If you mess up one day, it's okay, just try again tomorrow. Remember that you are more than what you are struggling with.
I'm 28 almost 29. Dude believe me, _ Have fun. _ Go to the gym 4x a week. _ Find a nice supportive girlfriend. _ Build your professional network. _ Invest in the stock market immediately to build your retirement. _ Travel the world. Do this and you will be on the top of the world. All the best.
@@flom1951I'm 21, bro. And I know I'm just being negative or exaggerated, but sometimes I feel like the time is running through my fingers. It's overwhelming
@@jorgecastrejon469get of social media and TikTok. You feel like this because of outside influence. If you didn’t have TikTok or social media your thoughts would be very different
I am 53, worked all life had to many responsibilities , I even work 2 jobs now, took risks , did my own thing , failed at own thing most of the time, before it just started to give semblance of living 6 years ago 😂😂😂😂 Circumstances , which part of world you are born, all matter, my advise is to keep soldiering on, there is this feeling of being deprived , just throw stones at that feeling, and keep moving, changing for if you do not its over anyway
@@anakata3254 No it’s not. It’s only over for him if he allows what you just said to sink in. You can come up at any age. You’re not helping but spreading more negativity, fear and doubt. This is why people fail. We put limitations on others when we haven’t even stepped a mile in their shoes. Some people bloom later in life but as long as they get there that’s all that matters. Lift him up and encourage him that as long as he’s breathing he has another chance.
It’s not over for you. It’s only over when YOU say it’s over. Don’t let white noise drag you down. If no one’s encouraging you or tryna lift you up, they’re just white noise. I don’t care what anyone says, 34 is still YOUNG. 20’s and 30’s is still young in my opinion, 40’s can make you feel young if you take good care of your body. You’re 34…so the hell what. Work to become the exception. You got this! Ignore all the bullshit and get busy. You’ll make it.
I feel like an old infant. 34 years old I’m a bartender. I make great money but I don’t see me doing this n my forties. Just had a baby which I’m so proud of. But god help me find my way cuz I feel so behind.
Dude you are doing great. Bartenders are awesome and tkmeless. Also You can do any job in the world. Best part is you can start over at any time any age. Life is not supposed to keep going upwards. Its full of ups and downs. We live we fail we learn we try new things. You make a living and your kid is blessed more than the majority of the world. Keep going and good luck with ur new fanily.
It’s absurd that one human beings’ opinion has the power to change the perspective of how people view themselves. Everyone’s path is unique and different. Success is Relative. Bottom line.
Yea, everyone’s path is different but there are still truths to life, something this world had forgotten about, such as what Kermit is saying in the video. The fact that people have different life experiences does not mean that being irresponsible and an idiot is ever a good thing.
In reality success is relative but from a societal perspective, there are unspoken truths most of us abide by which, if you don't want to be a societal outcast, you have to follow. What Peterson is saying here is definitely one of those truths.
People forget that it's not just the age; your body is physically changing your energy in your 30s, which is not the same in your early 20s. You'll deal with all the consequences of your bad choices in your 20s.
I thought I was depressed for years but I was just living in a cycle that was always going to make me depressed, addicted to weed, gambling and bad food, you start looking after yourself physically and what you eat and you will be able to tackle the next steps in terms of focusing on a career because you’ve got the other stuff together so can focus solely on your future, 28 and only got it together in the last 2 years, never been better now, the early you start the more you’ll thank yourself later, trust me.
I’m 23 (24 in December) and I feel so lost now, I had to quit my job because I couldn’t stand working with a S3xual harasser, many girls quit because of him and we’ve reported him plenty of times but he has my boss wrapped around his finger, I wouldn’t be surprised if she had a crush on him considering how she invites him to her home even though she literally has a husband. I’m looking for a new job but it’s very difficult to find one, It just feels like everything is over
It looks like your boss has something with that sexual harasser? Anyways I think local people have more job opportunities than foreigner. I am a 24 year old international student. I am still struggling to settle down in the country.
I feel you random person across the world , I am 23 24 in April and I am lost , we got to keep trying I don’t know bout you but me personally I always get held back by bad habits so working on that
Document everything. Whatever you remember try to get dates and times. Save about 3-4 months worth of shit and go sue. Even throw in some recordings and shit…then go see a lawyer. Even though you quit, still see if you can write some shit down or instead…get others to record for you while they’re still there…then throw your documents in. That’s the best thing I can think of.
Listening to Jordan Peterson lecture everyone makes me think why? Why does he pass judgement like he is all knowing. Every life is different. Not everyone figures it out.
You watch it because you know hes right, hes so popular l dont think he knows it, but hes more liked than anyone knew. We love this charming intelligent man , we want him her not Canada.
It's true that ages 20-24 are 'clueless ages'. I experience this first hand, It's like you're completely blind in a cave, you gotta trust your instincts to get out of the cave to achieve your goals and freedom
"I'm 25, and at this age, I've come to realize the meaning of 'my life.' I have a goal. I wake up in the morning, make my bed, and regain my motivation, in part thanks to you, Dr. ❤️"
@@mllermusic3979just turned 30 let me tell you the change in body happens like in a snap I thought the change will be slowly good that I invested in my health
Thats because Society believes that you have to figure out your Life in your 20s and 30 is too late. These People are usually average People with average Goals that can be achieved in 20s.
Thank you for this video. I truly feel, I failed in everything needed, to establish yourself a healthy life as an adult. And it feels bad, really bad. So, though I tried really hard, I failed (33) in every academical program I tried. My twenties are chronology of repeteaded failure. Ultimately I needed to leave college, since I had so much debt - without a degree. Since then I have been living at home and struggling to find any meaningful work. I send thousands of applications but nobody seems want to give me even a chance. Beside that I never had ANY platonic nor romantic realationships troughout this time. And still dont have, since all my peers are at so different stages in life. They work, have families...and I am still living in my childhood room. I really really feel depressed. I wish at least something would have worked out in my life, but nothing did.
I’m 30 and I somewhat relate to this video in the way that I haven’t 100% discovered a good career path but I’ve definitely got it narrowed down to: aviation, coffee, or IT. So I hope the fact that I have my options narrowed down makes me not look like an old infant. Also the fact that I don’t go out partying every night and blowing all my earnings like I did when I was younger. Don’t get me wrong, I still occasionally go out for beers and alcohol. I just don’t go every single night.
This is me now. 25. Almost 26. Part-time retail the past couple of years, lost. But recently accepted into a full-time chemical job. I dont know if it's something i see myself still doing at 30, but it's a proper job with decent pay. The sacrifice here would be doing a tougher job but im being more of a competent adult by doing so.
I have no job till now. I am 29 yrs old. So succesfully entered in life of darkness. So I will be dark soon. All credits goes to my mad decisions.😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hey there, I’m the same as you at 29. Never had a job and my mental wealth was an absolute joke since I was a child, the idea of driving a car fills me with dread and anxiety. I’m starting volunteer work soon with a homeless charity and I’m gonna be doing that until college courses start back up again here next year to try understand work ethic and force myself to have a normal sleep cycle. I’m currently doing a 3 month component module course online to get a minor award which will give me 15 credits towards achieving a major in college. My first driving lesson will be in a few days and I feel like I’m burning when I think about it but I’ll tell you what man.. I’d rather die in a car wreck than allow my life to continue being one. It’s gonna be hard for us but we have to try. No matter what we have to try.
@@thespiderfrommars2840I’m sending you a lot of love man, good luck. Be kind to yourself, you really deserve compassionate from going through all of this.
Ok listen dawg. Is really not that bad . Let’s say your parents own a house . Eventually will be your house and you’re a house owner. You rent it. I lost my family at 17 I rent the house and live with friends. Work here and there just to know people . I have been working for people or in my own business. All this bullshit about old infants are just crap. Fearmongoring gets views and attention
He'd label me as an old infant but the one thing I take pride in is treating others around me with dignity and respect. I feel like this type of opinion is meant to get us old infants in the work force to make our masters money.... It doesn't matter how I live my life as long as I have a love and respect for myself and for others I dont have a problem with work...but employment. Nobody pays anything for me i dont use anyone.
So I use to work at a hospital at 25 as a technician and when your 25 the doctors see you ok your a kid like he said I left that job position at 30 Never to return cause now ppl who have their doctor degrees see you as dumb. “Your 30!” Is all I got I’m in school rn tryin to get my degree and work on my own and I’m happy he is 100% right ppl start to perceive you as you have don’t nothing even tho you know you have
at 20 I made a promise to myself that at 30 i will have the knoweldge and the skills to be stable for my whole life , i invest time in getting financial knowledge, getting social skills that arent just partying, and being grounded in my faith,improving my daily routine to get as much health benefits as possible like managing sleep quality,food quality,managing my A.D.D etc...
This is where I have to disagree with Jordan here. First off 25 and 30 are still in the same age group pretty much. You see a lot of age groupings put 25-34 as one age group. Secondly age does not equate to life stage. Everyone develops differently and there is no blueprint for where you should be at 25 vs 30 or any age for that matter. Thirdly, early 30s by most people's definition is still a young adult. Whenever you see a young adult age range, it typically goes up to 34/35. Sometimes 39. Sure it sometimes only goes up to 24/25. But going by that definition, 25 would not exactly be "young adulthood" either. So really 25 and 30 are basically around the same range. Finally, last time I checked, 25 to 30 was 5 years, not 10 years.
I'm still in my 20's although late 20's but i can tell you, No your wrong, That is a huge misconception and scientific studies show we barely stop devoloping at age 30 and 45 is entering middle age, and , 30's is the time of confidence and getting serious, Now if you said 45 then sure you might have a point, but MANY people became successful in life AFTER 30 , some of the biggest company owners we know today were not in their 20's @@AFEEF93
I'm 25. Just have a skill. No matter what. Learn SOMETHING. I meet 35 year Olds all the time, " what do you do?" "Oh I did some construction. " no dude. Wtf
Is not true man I know a guy who started working in his 50s. To be serious you can always say you had a business and failed and that’s it. Jordan Peterson and all the people who believe 30s are the end of the world are just teachers I mean. This guy has never worked outside school man what does he know
Actually I don't really care what people think at this point. If I'm an old infant it's not because I haven't tried. Not everyone's life is the same, some people face obstacles that maybe others don't have
He doesnt say you cant make it at 30, you can. Dont misunderstand him. You can absolutely make it at 30, but guess what! You'll have to work with 20 year olds beside you. That's the point of his argument. And you dont want to be that person. I am one of those old infants out there...unfortunately! You can work yeah, sure! But nobody wants you! No one is thrilled about you. And when you do a mistake, well, it's not enough, you'll sure hear something like "30 and still doesnt know how to do well".
Mr Peterson , I have a question, let's say I was on a great path of a normal no nonsense guy fand because of a experience I misenturpreted , I was convinced of Christianity . How the bloody hell do I turn my life around at 33 . Thank you in advance
Bro if he thinks this applies to everyone then jokes on him. What if someone who is 30 choose to be as cheerful and kind of childlike attitude (you woulda call it clueless too) as he was in is 20ish but in his private life he has a great life for a 30 year old??? Bro clueless can means a lot of things, it dont have to mean about your finance and shit. and if you think you should trust this man’s advice on this reel alone , youre pathetic. Follow your pace and guide yourself with it!
Of course he doesn't believe this applies to everyone, it's a generalization. This has nothing to do with "attitude" by your way of definition. Nothing to do with being cheerful or childlike in that sense. This has to do with a 30 year old having the same level of responsibility as a young 20 year old. He's speaking of clueless, as in one's experiences that can help build a career. A young 20 year old likely doesn't have that experience and thats okay, there are fair reasons. However, if by 30 you still have none then you better have a damn good excuse as to what you're done in the last decade. This is neither illogical nor unreasonable.
That’s why 30+ year old making the same dumb decisions they made in their twenties makes me roll my eyes. It’s especially bad when they say I was young and dumb but they were 32 when they made the dumb decision.
Yea I'm almost 26 and just now going to school for my GED my advice to women 18 to my age don't waste time catches up to u when u hit your 30 people look at u different if I can be 18 I would have took my education my seriously and learn to control my anger don't let the Internet dictate your life I'm going to thrive in my 30's fuck what he saying it'll be hard but got God all over my life
Life moves to fast and is so chaotic to judge anyone on anyone else's standards. You can be disappointed but that person who's actually living that life is probably more disappointed than you are judging them and who the hell are you to judge them? You have no idea what they're gone through or are currently going through.
