Jordan Peterson : don't make it worse
Channel: Wise sense
Date: 2023-01-30

Perhaps happiness is always to be found in the journey uphill, and not in the fleeting sense of satisfaction awaiting at the next peak.
Don’t underestimate the power of vision and direction. These are irresistible forces, able to transform what might appear to be unconquerable obstacles into traversable pathways and expanding opportunities.
There’s a worthy and noble ambition: strength in the face of adversity. That is very different from the wish for a life free of trouble. When you dare aspire upward, you reveal the inadequacy of the present and the promise of the future. Then you disturb others, in the depths of their souls, where they understand that their cynicism and immobility are unjustifiable.
The better ambitions have to do with the development of character and ability, rather than status and power. Status you can lose. You carry character with you wherever you go, and it allows you to prevail against adversity.
Not everyone who is failing is a victim, and not everyone at the bottom wishes to rise, although many do, and many manage it.
