Man's Search for Meaning

Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy supports that man's search for meaning in life is his primary motivational force  and must be fulfilled by him alone. According to Frankl, we can discover our meaning in life in three different ways: (1) by creating a work or doing a deed; (2) by experiencing something or encountering someone; and (3) by the attitude we take toward unavoidable suffering. When you know the "why" for your life, you will be be able to bear almost any "how" to bring it about.
