Blogcast: Choosing a healthy attitude: a habit, not just a choice

from The Pressures of Privilege · host Diana Oehrli

"Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way," wrote Viktor Frankl in his seminal work "Man's Search for Meaning." He knew the depths of human suffering firsthand, having endured three years across four Nazi concentration camps. During this ordeal, he observed a tragic pattern: those who perished were often those who had lost hope and purpose. When the flame of meaning flickered out, survival became nearly impossible.   A narrated essay from The Pressures of Privilege.Subscribe for more essays and reflections: https://dianaoehrli.substack.com/subscribe
