The same with enforcing the rules, for example - it really isn't about everyone perfectly following them, but it will be a great difference if 7 out of 10 do the right thing, instead of 3 or none at all if those expectations were absent.

He's right. Sadly, the reciprocal argument is true as well. When kids grow up in a ghetto or other adverse environment, the example of an average adult role model can set expectations quite low. Many kids will fall short of the expectations when they become adults, worsening the problems of crime, poverty, and moral failures. This is why it is important to give people, especially young people that are in their formative years, an escape route from a life of crime and poverty.

oh my god...
I clearly remember the day I was introduced to Viktor Frankl 30 years ago. The book "Man's Search for Meaning" is a book to read every year. His example formed my path in nearly everything I do. He was the real transformational speaker I aspire to be!

I'm becoming to get to know Sir Viktor Frankl's philosophy; a lot of things he so beautifully, with such profoundness, complexity, depth and wisdom speaks about that it touches me and resonates within. I was thinking which book from him to buy but ,,Man's search for meaning" seems to be the one most appealing to me. And I can see by your words and as by many that it's one of those ,,must have", a transformative kind :))

The first Viktor Frankl quote I heard was, "A man who has a why, can face any how." This one sentence has made a huge impact in my life in many ways and lives of others I've told this quote too.

He is my ideal, my North Star when it comes to living life. Having lived through the horrors of the Holocaust, he proved his theory by actually living it when it mattered most; at a time without hope, without respect and dignity to human life and continuous torture. Viktor Frankl is the real gold.

Viktor Frankl was a Jewish-Austrian psychiatrist known for his work in logotherapy. He survived multiple concentration camps until he was eventually freed. The entire time he held out hope that his wife was still alive, and clutched to his faith. His book, 'Man's Search for Meaning' is one of the most brutal yet optimistic books you'll ever read.

Correct. The same with enforcing the rules, for example - it really isn't about everyone perfectly following them, but it will be a great difference if 7 out of 10 do the right thing, instead of 3 or none at all if those expectations were absent. Evolving society has to have ideals and strive for the best. Accepting 'just being' is a decadency.

(Hu)man's Search for Meaning.....
This is the basic philosophy I use when I instruct and it is the way my parents raised me. My Mother expected and showed no doubt when it came to teaching me. She treated me as if I already knew much of it. It works, mostly. I think it is about a certain level of respect for the student, instead of treating them as an inferior
Amazing speech. Today it seems that all humanist voices have been silenced. Human potential has been degraded to how much money and power one can wield. It is sweet music to the ears to hear Victor Frankl speak of the promise of human potential for ALL humanity all those years ago.

Being a huge idealist when I was young, and having realized along the way, that absolute idealism is fantasy, I went into this video with skepticism. At about 1:58, he clarifies, at least for generalization, that we need to be idealistic "in a way". I was very pleased he included this, and hope all idealistic influencers have an awareness of this as well.

We used this book in my high school as well!
I lost count years ago of how many times I was called an "idealist" like it was a slur, or a cognitive error on my part. "Go to the limits of your longing."
A worthy role model. Powerful revelations about human potential. SEE THE BEST IN OTHERS, AND YOU HELP THEM UNLOCK THEIR POTENTIAL.
I watch this video often, and I continue to try to soak up the lesson till the last drop. Beautiful.
Remember you have more than you realize. Start slow, set tiny short term goals, give yourself time and the chance to see progress. We all do this together 🤝🏼
I was in a producing class at film school. They put a cap on the hypothetical budgets at 500K. They wanted us to do a gross earnings thing at the end. I gave them one with "realistic" numbers. And then I gave them one with Terminator Franchise numbers. Because if you pop off and make a huge profit on a small budget, the ideal *is* realistic.
Amazing concept! Now I understand why I get so angry when people my age disparage young people.
He was such a bright and shining mind. The way he speaks is mesmerizing
Hello from Russia. Once upon a time a book by Frankl gave me a huge support. And today again. Taking into account the current situation...
I know Ive listened to the jung interview too many times when just the sound of the accents alone start to relax me
This is how humanity has always viewed one another. It's the basis on why we treat children with so much care, why our justice system presumes innocence before guilt, or why we spent millions of dollars on rescue missions and foreign aid.

He's right. Sadly, the reciprocal argument is true as well. When kids grow up in a ghetto or other adverse environment, the example of an average adult role model can set expectations quite low. Many kids will fall short of the expectations when they become adults, worsening the problems of crime, poverty, and moral failures. This is why it is important to give people, especially young people that are in their formative years, an escape route from a life of crime and poverty.
“Happiness is the only good. The place to be happy is here. The time to be happy is now. The way to be happy is to help make others so.” - Robert G. Ingersoll (1833-1899)
I read the title and I instantly knew I'd agree with this guy because that statement really resonates with my own philosophy. Then I processed the title and realized that the guy giving the speech is Viktor Frankl who I've seen a lot about and is really one of the people I agree with the most and whose work I really admire. Lived an insane life and his approach to life is something that very much resonates with me

It applies to everything though. If you want mankind to get better, you have to believe in it. Determining humanity is evil and dumb is totally useless and illogical. Hope for the best because that's how you actualize progress.
It goes in tandem with so many other perspectives of life in different cultures. Its great.
That was some awesome truth. I didn’t know Victor Frankl could be so passionate.
This is an incredible metaphor for progress in society. So perfect. Compensating for the cross-winds ❤❤🌟
If we're talking about idealism as realism striving to uphold proper standards, I agree.
One of the best videos on yt🙏❤️
Today I've learned a new word: "crabbing" (полёт с углом сноса, полёт с парированием сноса). Thank you, Viktor Frankl.
