Reflection of Dr. Victor E. Frankl

Frankfis, main thesis is that our fundamental motivation is not power or pleasure, but the seeking of meaning. He contends that even in the most horrific conditions, the ability to seek meaning remains. It is not a question of discovering an ordained, cosmic vocation, but of affirmatively seeking meaning by attitude. by decision, and by action. In the camps, it was minor acts of rebellion, acts of kindness, and hope-holding onto memories of loved ones, consolation in nature, of aiding fellow prisoners

Logotherapy everyday application extends a long way past the desperate realities of the concentration camps. It's a way of coping with existential dread, testing, and of living with greater purpose. Eranki emphasizes taking responsibility for our own existence, focusing on what we are able to do rather than on what we're not. That is finding what our values are, setting high-stakes goals, and really doing something towards bringing them to fruition. It's finding our own contribution to the world, however small that may be.

The strongest point of Erankis work is his emphasis on the worth of suffering. He does not shun suffering and brutality but dwells on the strength of suffering to change us. He is of the opinion that suffering, when met with courage and an aspiration to seek meaning, can change individuals and comprehend life better. This is not an idealization of suffering, but an acknowledgment of its potential to make us tougher and more resolute.
