The Pursuit of Meaning

Meer over het boek

Exploring the principles of logotherapy, this book emphasizes personal responsibility and the pursuit of meaning over mere happiness. It argues against viewing oneself as a victim of circumstances, highlighting that healthy tension between our current state and our aspirations fosters growth. Frankl's insights suggest that mental health arises from finding meaning in life, rather than chasing pleasure. By focusing on human strengths like creativity, love, and a desire for purpose, the text encourages readers to embrace their potential and learn from both successes and failures.
