Attitude

"The last of the human freedoms is to choose one's attitudes." - Victor Frankl


Frankl's famous book, From Death Camp to Existentialism is the elegant story of how he remained in charge of his attitude under the most trying circumstances. He learned that his captors could not control his attitude about his fate. He learned that he alone was in charge of his own attitude. Too often we complain that others have put us in a bad mood or ruined our day. This is an excuse.
