Hello,

This week's edition will discuss attitude, ANTIFA, and creativity.


** Do Not Let Yourself Become Resentful, Deceitful, or Arrogant.
------------------------------------------------------------

It is in our individual capacity to confront the potential of the future and to transform it into the actuality of the present. The way we determine what the world transforms into is a consequence of our ethical, conscious choices. We wake up in the morning and confront the day, with all its possibilities and terrors. We chart a course, making decisions for better or worse. We understand that we can do evil and bring terrible things into Being. But we also know that we can do good, if not great, things. We have the best chance of doing the latter if we act properly due to being truthful, responsible, grateful, and humble.

The right attitude to the horror of existence the alternative to resentment, deceit, and arrogance is the assumption that there is enough of you, society, and the world to justify existence. That is faith in yourself, your fellow man, and the structure of existence itself: the belief that there is enough to you to contend with existence and transform your life into the best it could be. Perhaps you could live in a manner whose nobility, grandeur, and intrinsic meaning would be of sufficient importance to tolerate the negative elements of existence without becoming so bitter as to transform everything around you into something resembling hell.


** Monday Reflections
------------------------------------------------------------

“You must be cautious, because making your life better means adopting a lot of responsibility, and that takes more effort and care than living stupidly in pain and remaining arrogant, deceitful, and resentful.” (Share this on Twitter ([link removed]) )

“When life suddenly reveals itself as intense, gripping, and meaningful; when time passes and you’re so engrossed in what you’re doing you don’t notice—it is there and then that you are located precisely on the border between order and chaos.”

“Alongside our wish to be free of rules, we all search for structure.”

We also exchanged thoughts on the psychology of mob violence, journalistic integrity in high-stakes situations, criticism he’s received as a journalist, seeing people as ends, destabilizing the police, and more.

Creativity | Jordan B. Peterson
​​
Dr. Peterson:

"Creativity seems related to IQ in that more people with higher IQs are likely to be creative, or if you take people who are noted for their creativity, there's a high probability that they'll have a higher IQ. Still, there's more to it than IQ and what creativity seems to be associated with then again depends on how you define creativity."
