When you feel lost, Jordan Peterson argues the answer isn’t more motivation—it’s a conscious plan for becoming the person you could be. In this condensed summary of the full-length Jordan Peterson lecture, Peterson connects Jung, dreams, alchemy, leadership, ethics, AI alignment, parenting, marriage, and public responsibility to one central idea: character comes before capability.
