Actually, this is not a "new theory." It was Viktor Frankl's theory which is also called "Logotherapy" ultimate truth therapy. In Greek, Logos means "ultimate truth." Frankl was a holocaust survivor who had worked with Freud, Jung and Adler, and had created this theory before the war began. In time, because he was Jew, he was sent to the death camps. He miraculously survived, and tried his therapy in the camps. He rationalized, if it worked there..it would work anywhere. Later, after the war, he came back to his hometown, and wrote several books. Amazing man. His most famous book is: "Man's search for Meaning."
This book profoundly influenced my life several decades ago. It is time to resurrect it and let it works it's magic once more.
