How can we live our lives with purpose when everything around us seems so hopeless? That's exactly what we'll talk about today. Join us for the conversation and the mates
Viktor E. Frankl was born in Vienna in 1905 and published more than 30 books on theoretical and clinical psychology that gained international success. "Man's Search for Meaning" is one of his greatest books that he wrote about his own experience surviving the Nazi death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival.
Show notes:
- "He who has a Why to live for can bear almost any How" -Friedrich Nietzsche
- We as humans need a quest for: meaning, work, love, courage
- "Suffering in an of itself is meaningless; we give our suffering meaning by the way in which we respond to it."
- "Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation"
- You cannot control what happens to you in life, but you can always control what you feel and do about what happens to you
- Most men in concentration camp believed that the real opportunities of life had passed. Yet, in reality, there was an opportunity and a challenge.
- "Inner strength by point out a future goal to which he could look forward. It is a peculiarity of man that he can only live by looking to the future."
- Health, family, happiness, professional abilities, fortune, position in society-- all these things that could be achieved again or restored.
?? What irreplaceable losses have you suffered ??
- Man, however, is able to live and even to die for the sake of his ideals and values!
- What man actually needs is not a tensionless state but rather the striving and struggling for a worthwhile goal
p.114 "he is not only unhappy, but also ashamed of being unhappy" Americans in the Existential Vaccum - p. 131 Man does not simply exist but always decides what his existence will be, what he will become in the next moment. By the same token, every human being has the freedom to change at any instant.
- Where is the future you? That person is counting on you today to keep showing up.
