In this episode, my guest is <a href="https://www.jordanbpeterson.com/">Dr. Jordan Peterson, Ph.D.</a>, psychologist, professor emeritus at the University of Toronto, <a href="https://amzlink.to/az0woBkDzpJTZ">best-selling author</a>, and prominent online educator. We discuss the biology of human emotions and motivations, healthy versus destructive impulses, addictions, and generative drives. Topics include how brain states shape decision-making—for better or worse—and how religion and culture can guide us toward and through the best paths in life.We also explore the innate human drive to create "impact at a distance" and how it influences social interactions, educational pursuits, career choices, and relationships. Additional subjects include morality, social media, politics, the human appetite for drama, and the importance of embracing responsibility as a form of adventure to avoid wasting time.Listeners will gain practical knowledge from psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and religion.Read the full show notes at <a href="https://www.hubermanlab.com/episode/dr-jordan-peterson-how-to-best-guide-your-life-decisions-path">hubermanlab.com</a>.<h2>Thank you to our sponsors</h2>AG1: <a href="https://drinkag1.com/huberman">https://drinkag1.com/huberman</a>David: <a href="https://davidprotein.com/huberman">https://davidprotein.com/huberman</a>Levels: <a href="https://levels.link/huberman">https://levels.link/huberman</a>ROKA: <a href="https://roka.com/huberman">https://roka.com/huberman</a>Function: <a href="https://functionhealth.com/huberman">https://functionhealth.com/huberman</a>LMNT: <a href="https://drinklmnt.com/huberman">https://drinklmnt.com/huberman</a><h2>Timestamps</h2>00:00:00 Dr. Jordan Peterson00:02:32 Sponsors: David & Levels00:05:19 Brain, Impulses, Integration, Personalities00:14:08 Personalities, Motivation00:18:18 Context & Children; Religion, Motivation & Personality00:24:08 Hypothalamus, Context, Maturation00:29:46 Psychopathy, Kids & Aggressive Behavior & Socialization00:33:37 Polytheistic & Monotheistic Religions; Rage, Sociopathy & Addiction00:41:05 Sponsors: AG1 & ROKA00:43:58 Belief in God, Addiction00:50:34 Pornography, Dopamine, Processed Foods00:56:20 Clean Diet, Satiety; Fundamental Pleasures, Food, Sexuality01:04:44 Power, Target, Sin01:06:46 Sponsor: Function01:08:33 Abraham; Call to Adventure, Success, Respect, Community01:21:30 Wisdom, Noah; Religion, Incentive Structure & Motivation01:26:52 Dopamine & Target, Sin; Frontal Eye Fields01:31:59 Meta-Target & Goals, Sermon on the Mount; Fears01:40:36 Sponsor: LMNT01:41:51 Ultimate vs. Local Victory, Pearl of Great Price01:45:05 Time Scales & Rewards; Entropy, Dopamine & Goals01:51:20 Pornography, Effortless Gratification; Revelation & Sexuality Demise02:02:33 Adventure & Responsibility, Sacrifice; Tool: Ordering Room02:12:02 Storytelling, Science, Career Advancement, Pursuing Truth02:23:46 Abraham & Adventure; Purposeful Satisfaction, Podcast02:28:13 Finding Your Calling, Tools: Calling & Conscience; Creating Order02:35:06 Order vs. Chaos; Public Shootings, Narcissism02:40:16 Long-Term Goals, Pursuit, Curiosity, Commitment02:45:43 Finding Purpose, Tool: Fixing Messes; Conscience & Voice of Divine02:54:26 Prayer, Aim, Revelation; Thought03:00:34 Religion, Common Themes03:10:55 Psychoanalytical Traditions; Play03:19:23 Play; Humor, Discourse, Alternative Media03:27:18 Democrats, Republicans; Fear & Growth03:34:59 Tour, Peterson Academy, YouTube, Cancel Culture03:48:30 Zero-Cost Support, YouTube, Spotify & Apple Follow & Reviews, Sponsors, YouTube Feedback, Protocols Book, Social Media, Neural Network Newsletter<a href="https://www.hubermanlab.com/disclaimer">Disclaimer & Disclosures</a>
