Today, 4/6/25 I took notes on Logos University clip, starring Jordan Peterson, which I copied and will lightly edit below. Here it is:
J (Short for Jordan): “The young people that I’ve been communicating with around the world are dying to hear a proper story about identity.
And if you say to them, look, take some responsibility. Have some entrepreneurial daring. Establish a long-term relationship. Get married. Have children. Engage civically: grow up and become part of your family, your community, your state, your province, your country. And dedicate yourself to a high-level religious view of the world. Then you have an identity. You are embedded in multiple layers. And that constitutes psychological stability and purpose.
My response: This is sage advice, and a good first step; I would add that individuating in service of God would give one an even deeper, more meaningful, satisfying sense of identity.
