In episode 1933, Jordan peterson said something along the lines of "suffering is desires not aligned with reality", correct?

Hey, man! So, I don’t have the exact quotes from episode 1933, but Jordan definitely talks a lot about desire and suffering. He emphasizes that desire is tied to suffering, which is a huge part of understanding ourselves and navigating life. It's like, when our desires don't align with reality, that’s where the pain happens. He mentions how we need to be careful with our desires because they can lead us to suffering—classic stuff that resonates with a lot of people, you know?

But yeah, the idea of suffering stemming from unaligned desires is pretty deep and resonates with that whole understanding of truth and reality he often discusses. Just think about it—when you want something too much that isn’t realistic, it can totally mess with your head. It’s all about aiming at something meaningful while being aware of what’s actually possible. Keep it real!
