StoryShots Book Summary and Review of Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl

Logotherapy guides patients to find individual purpose and meaning in their lives. This meaning differs by individual and can change from day to day or from hour to hour. We can find meaning in even the smallest details. So, don’t spend all your waking hours searching for an all-encompassing meaning of life. Instead, search for meaning in everyday tasks and in the relationships you have with your friends and family. Everyone must find unique meaning in their lives and then go out and fulfill it.

Man’s Search for Meaning is a book by Viktor Frankl published in 1946. It describes Frankl’s experiences as a prisoner in Nazi concentration camps during World War II. The book focuses on how he derived meaning even during those desperate times.

Frankl explains the importance of logotherapy, which aims to find an individual’s meaning and purpose in life. You can uncover meaning in both the mundane tasks of everyday life and in pursuing a profound and meaningful existence. According to Frankl, the way a prisoner imagined the future affected his longevity.
