Tell that guy to shift/control/delete and then punt.


According to a survey conducted by the Book-of-the-Month Club and the Library of Congress, "Man's Search For Meaning", by Viktor Frankl belongs to a list of "the ten most influential books in the United States.


Frankl's book showed that the last of the human freedom was to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way."

"Nietzsche's words offered some similar advice,
*
'He who has a why to live for
can bear with almost any how.'"
*
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life—daily and hourly. Our answer must consist, not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct.

Questions about life/ by me
1 : Life is not fair as you look at it each day but then it does make us better or worse and it in many ways is up to us.
2 : The world won't care about your self-esteem and the truth is working hard in spite of low self esteem does make you better
3 : Titles are a foolish goal. If they proceed accomplishment then they don't last long.
4 : Bosses are tougher than teachers but you will be your own toughest critic if you have the right motives pushing you.
5 : Doing work well is a worthy goal and any work should not be beneath your dignity.
6: Schools may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT.
7. Winning is as much about staying in the ring as who wins the fight. Never give up.
8. The value of people is not in what they can do for you but in the humanity you share with them.
9. Those that hurt you make you better than those that try to help you, all to often.
10 Caring about others should not be dependent upon being cared about.
