Dr. Peterson gave an in depth lecture on aim, relationships, personal growth, and more. It was amazing to say the least. I would absolutely go to another of his lectures. I highly recommend you do too.
Some people lived in the era of Sigmund Freud. We are living in the era of Dr Jordan Peterson !
Amazing and thought provoking. He did a wonderful talk and I was thoroughly at the edge of my seat.
He convinced me to take the self authoring course.
We couldn't even see the stage, because Moody blocked off some empty seats, obstructing our view. They shouldn't even sell tickets this bad!
Seeing Dr. Peterson in person was an amazing experience. His fresh ideas and classical ways of thinking are food for thought in this day an age of subjectivism.
If you are frequent consumer of Dr. Peterson's content you can expect many of the themes and messages to be repeated on this lecture. If you are expecting more religious presentation this event is not quite the fit -- it focused heavily on more modern discussions on what constitutes to live life in the pursuit of good (if there's even is one, haha). That being said the discourse was impeccable, and was worth the ticket price just to see Peterson talk. I believe this is a good introduction to his philosophy.
An intermission between lecture and sit down discussions would have been very helpful
Everything else was great. But on the floor level, the seats were way too close together. Touching shoulders with 2 strangers is not pleasant.
