Who is Viktor Frankl you may ask?
Viktor Frankl was an Austrian neurologist, psychiatrist, and Holocaust survivor, born in 1905 and passing away in 1997. He is best known for his profound and inspiring teachings related to the human capacity for finding meaning and purpose in life, even in the face of extreme suffering.
Frankl's most notable work is his book, "Man's Search for Meaning," in which he recounted his experiences as a prisoner in Nazi concentration camps during World War II. In these harrowing circumstances, Frankl observed that those who survived and maintained their humanity were often those who had a sense of purpose and meaning in their lives.
His central teaching is encapsulated in the following quote: "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." Frankl believed that, while we may not have control over external circumstances, we do have control over our attitudes and responses. He argued that the search for meaning is a fundamental human drive, and even in the most dire situations, individuals can find purpose by choosing their responses and embracing the suffering as an opportunity for growth and self-discovery.
Frankl's teachings have had a profound impact on the fields of psychology, philosophy, and personal development. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential existential psychologists, and his work continues to inspire people to seek meaning and resilience in the face of adversity.
