  1. I agree that if we find meaning in our sufferings we are able to mold that into an achievement and learn how to be better and do better.

  2. I’ve read a few of Frankle’s work including “A Search for meaning” which I find to be one of his influential work as I agree that individuals are motivated to find meaning in their lives as well as understand why they exist and do the things they do.

  3. I find it interesting how Dr. Viktor Franki’s philosophy is that people can endure suffering and hardships in life. I found it especially interesting how he developed that idea while suffering in Nazi Concentration camps.

He talks of human beings being proned to despair because of their experiences at the death camp and other like situations.

  11. He believed that your suffering is important, I agree with this because you shouldn’t dwell on it but use it. Frankl said that his experience, his suffering was important to his understanding on how to help others. Your decision is your freedom of choice and you should wish to act freely. It’s is your responsibility as a human being despite negative conditions. You should be enough to live for.

  12. Dr. Viktor Frankl founded logotherapy he assumes that everyone’s driving force is to find meaning in life. I don’t know how i feel about the theory he experienced a lot of hardship via concentration camps and talked people away from suicide by showing them purpose. I can see if one has no purpose why they would feel so low I guess i’m being bias and assume we all have a purpose maybe logotherapy is the nudge to find ones purpose ?
