Description

“Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather must recognize that it is he who is asked. In a word, each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life; to life he can only respond by being responsible.”
~ Viktor Frankl from Man’s Search for Meaning

Viktor Frankl. He’s unquestionably one of my heroes and this book is a must read (or re-read as the case may be). It's impossible to be a serious student of life and not soak up as much Frankl as you can.

The man survived the horrors of Nazi concentration camps and, from that pain, brought the world his “Logotherapy.” A philosophy based on the fundamental precept that we have ultimate responsibility for choosing our responses to any given challenge AND equally powerful responsibility to determine how we will give ourselves to the world and create a truly meaningful life.

We’re going to touch on a handful of my favorite Big Ideas here and I trust you will be inspired by and admire the beautiful man as much as I am and do.
