I heard someone once say "Don't be a nice Man, be a GOOD man" That has stuck with me, niceness holds the idea of being untruthful to protect feelings, not telling people what you want, avoiding all conflict even when it's necessary etc, but being a good man you tell the truth and assert yourself in an ethical manner and treat people with respect and caring, BUT based in truth. There is a glorious middle ground where the incredible people are found.

95TurboSol middle ground is the hardest to achieve. I tell the truth way more than is necessary and the women in my life hate it. Telling the truth (including personal feelings) all the time is an extreme to be avoided.

@@Iranianjunkie definitely true, that's where the ethical part comes in, sometimes it's better to not say anything or if you do tell the truth, the way you tell it can either be in the other person's interest and benefit or be an excuse to be hateful and hurt someone, I knew a kid that would say he was being good by telling people mean things because those things were true, this is just an excuse to be evil, ethical truth is doing what uplifts others and makes them better.

"niceness holds the idea of being untruthful to protect feelings, not telling people what you want, avoiding all conflict even when it's necessary" I was certainly a victim of that. No More Mr. Nice Guy though and when I have some negative feelings or thoughts I don't betray myself and tell whats on my mind. You have to watch words and find balance though but because I value myself much more than before I am always ready for things to leave.

The very first night I met my current girlfriend (of 1 year so far), I basically raped her. We were having fun, we got to the bed and she sat up and firmly said "No!" when I took her clothes off. It was this awkward moment where I had to decide whether I respected her "no", let her put her clothes back on and probably leave or ignore it and jump on her and go to town. I decided to go to town. She ended up spending the night, we went out again a couple nights later and ended up becoming a couple. We are about a year in now. That moment has burned into my memory because she could have basically accused me of rape and sorta been correct if she wanted to. But had I been a nice guy and let her leave I doubt I would have seen her ever again. So this issue of how a male is supposed to engage sexually is extremely difficult since many women sort of want to be forced. Thats whats keeping them interested to some extent. Very complicated.

@@auditoryproductions1831 I think it depends on the type of woman you're attracted too. Like you said very complex but definitely be careful with it. I'm currently dating this girl (About a month in) Who is absolutely against this type of thinking as far as the idea of "Wanting to be forced" into (Not specifically in a sexual standpoint but just in general with a relationship). Multiple variables to consider..... Depending on the type of woman, relative mindset (such as does she like you like, does she like parties/ the bottom line characteristics that define what makes her a person) , age, etc. I think its important to understand that not all woman have the same or even a similar mindset of how they would like to be pursued, captured, or "engaged" how you say by their physical/emotional long term partner. I think the issue or discussion of Mr. Nice guy and that to assertiveness in the way you approach women, can be an entirely different discussion. Peterson covers it as a whole how to differentiate the differences in your nature (In who you or such as introvert or extrovert for example) and how to open up to the other sides (your opposite) so you have a wider spectrum and broaden your "tool kit" as Jordan referred to. And in doing so allows you to apply yourself in different areas in your life INCLUDING your long term partner. Let me know if this helps in any way of if I need to clarify, i usually don't do this sort of thing.

Watching this clip I realized something about myself that I have been too afraid to admit to myself, which is I'm a very agreeable person. Not necessarily to my detriment, but I'm too concerned with pleasing people and will go to certain distances to achieve that. I would like to believe that a part of that is because I have a fair amount of compassion and truly want to see people happy, but I will have to find a middle ground as I go through life. I'm 26 so I hope I will have time to make the necessary adjustments before I get to settled in my ways. This lecture clip was truly insightful! 🙏💯

Assertive person= someone who will confront and explain why they are mad at a co-worker, instead of hiding their anger then vandalizing their car later.They won't get aggressive but will defend themselves if the other person gets too aggressive....Aggressive person= Gets mad, attacks co-worker and gets fired.

Couldn't agree more. Competition is for frightened animals, humans prosper so to us competition should just be for entertainment. Besides, it's observed that even in great apes there are examples where the nicest one is the leader. There are two paths to power, you get people to do what you want by making them scared of you, or you get them to do what you want because they like you. Interestingly, with the gorillas being studied, the ones that got their power from being liked held their power a lot longer on average than the ones that used tyranny. The ones that where liked where protected by the whole tribe, even the females, and rarely challenged even after they got older and weaker. While the tyrants where often challenge, rarely protected and taken down by their own as soon as they showed physical weakness. So this idea that you can't be nice and also on top is a myth that's very prevalent in cultures that have taken capitalism and individually too far. Being part of a large group is one of the main reason humans have gotten as far as we have, neanderthals all died because they where too aggressive to form large groups so they where easily overrun by a superior force. Being nice is integral to successful corporation so it's essential for long term human survival.

The pain and disappointment I was bringing to the people I cared about caused me to make a complete 180 switch. I spent my adolescence developing empathy and social skills to try and prevent any and all confrontation because I knew I couldn't control my anger. Now at nearly 30 years old I am finally getting balanced with my brain chemistry after years of crippling depression. I am finding that while yes, you can be your own worst enemy, the opposite is also true. You can and should be your biggest ally.

On top of that, b) if you do not take steps to correct “mistakes”, you aren’t a contributor to the solution of said problem and so you are (arguably) a part of it. You may not be responsible for such people, but you can’t wash your hands of accountability.

Bless Jordan Peterson, I feel disturbingly lost at 18, having been raised to be very agreeable in an environment which was very forgiving to me in the sense that it hasn't punished me for being a pushover. However, the time came for me to become a full fledged individuality and I'm too anxious about going with the flow. His way of distilling the intelectual contents of people like C.G. Jung into more easy to consume information has helped me understand my own nature somewhat better, as well as start seeing myself more objectively. What bothers me is the fact that most of these revelations I seem to have can't really be put in my own words, which makes them easy to forget. I don't know how much sticks with me, and it makes it hard to develop a deeper understanding of the shown material.

The title is VERY misleading. Not ONCE did he mention the notion of “nice guys finishing last.” He’s talking about assertiveness, the and cons of being too agreeable and a lot of great things but NEVER said “nice guys finish last.” The reason why our society is so messed up is because a lot of men nowadays think being “nice” is now a sin. There’s a difference between being a doormat and being nice/respectful ect. Which is EXACTLY what he addressed. Best part: he didn’t isolate this solely for men. He made this gender-friendly. Change the title or provide a better explaination of the video before posting.

There’s nothing wrong with being a nice person. People like nice people. As long as you are able to realize when someone is trying to take your kindness for weakness and you don’t allow that to happen or allow yourself to be pushed around then you can be a nice person and still be successful in life. But you should as be nice just because that’s your personality. If you’re nice to people solely because you’re trying to get something from them (like being nice to women purely in hopes of having sex with them) then you’re not actually nice you’re just fake and a lot more people than you realize can see right through that.

@@jeffmoser4575 pointing out a fact that describes the fashion in which many (not all) teachers carry out their style of teaching during their lectures in schools or universities isn't an act of blame or whatsoever. It comes down to the individual. And if the individual is too absorbed into the conventional approach system of learning set out as by the general educational authorities the results end up in teachers feeding as much data as possible to pupils and students according to a standard guideline while focusing less or not at all to shaping their mind in ways they can become autonomous thinkers before actually acquiring content to fill up their minds. The difference between these goals is that on one hand the aim is to know as much as one can (not saying it's worthless) and on the other the aim is to know how to link and create connections between the things we know. What I'm saying it is pretty rare to have someone feeding you new information and at the same time applying that knowledge to a wider range of potential aspect of one's life, ranging from rational, to philosophical, personal, self developmental levels that actually leaves students think about even after the lecture's ended.

Growing up as a man, you notice that other men, assert dominance over the weak ones. Happened to me, no father figure influence while growing up. I grew up so confused and being bullied. No idea of what boundaries are (women pass emotion, fathers pass boundaries and "disagreeableness" to their sons). I hope that all men who don't have stable father figures watch and understand this video. It will save you from a lot of headaches, confusion and rats and snakes.

It seems that "nice guys" are driven by the fear of conflict, and "bad boys" are driven by the fear of not being valued/receiving validation. Don't be one of the extremes and be driven by fear and short-term thinking. Instead, be a grounded man who takes the best of both worlds. Have a purpose that goes beyond yourself, but be willing to enter conflict if it benefits your greater cause.

I am extremely polite with people who are not meddling with my interests and show a lot of hostility right away towards people who are trying to foil my plans. That is it. Don’t be scared. It is life and we are learning it all the time. You should find you own way which works for you and there are no universal advices. First of all, I marked my crucial interests and tell to myself that I should protect it by any means possible (in borders of law of course) and secondary interests which I can ignore sometimes and be patient if somebody is violating them. The main issue is to KNOW what are you primary and secondary interests.
