About Viktor Frankl

Viktor Emil Frankl, M.D., Ph.D. (26 March 1905 – 2 September 1997) was an Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist and a Holocaust survivor. Frankl was the founder of logotherapy, which is a form of existential analysis, the "Third Viennese School of Psychotherapy". His best-selling book Man's Search for Meaning chronicles his experiences as a concentration camp inmate which led him to discover the importance of finding meaning in all forms of existence, even the most sordid ones, and thus, a reason to continue living. Frankl became one of the key figures in existential therapy and a prominent source of inspiration for humanistic psychologists.

Additional quotes by Viktor Frankl

"الانسان ليس مشروطا او محتوم السلوك بصورة كلية ولكنه يقرر نفسه سواء سلم تسليما كاملا للظروف أو اتخذ بشأن هذه الظروف موقفا. والانسان بقول آخر, انما يقرر لنفسه, ينتقي الغاية والنهاية "المقرر لنفسه". وهذا هو جوهره. فالانسان ليس ببساطة أمرا موجودا, ولكنه يقرر دائما وجوده الذي سيكون عليه, ويقرر ما الذي سوف يصير اليه في اللحظة التالية."

A positive attitude enables a person to endure suffering and disappointment as well as enhance enjoyment and satisfaction. A negative attitude intensifies pain and deepens disappointments; it undermines and diminishes pleasure, happiness, and satisfaction; it may even lead to depression or physical illness.
