Each Man Is Questioned By Life; And

Happiness Cannot Be Attained By Wanting To Be Happy - It Must Come As The Unintended Consequence Of Working For A Goal Greater Than Oneself.

What Man Actually Needs Is Not A Tensionless State But Rather The Striving And Struggling For Some Goal Worthy Of Him. What He Needs Is Not The Discharge Of Tension At Any Cost, But The Call Of A Potential Meaning Waiting To Be Fulfilled By Him.

There Is Also Purpose In Life Which Is Almost Barren Of Both Creation And Enjoyment And Which Admits Of But One Possibility Of High Moral Behavior: Namely, In Man's Attitude To His Existence, An Existence Restricted By External Forces.

Man's Inner Strength May Raise Him Above His Outward Fate.

Man's Search For Meaning Is The Primary Motivation In His Life And Not A "secondary Rationalization" Of Instinctual Drives. This Meaning Is Unique And Specific In That It Must And Can Be Fulfilled By Him Alone; Only Then Does It Achieve A Significance Which Will Satisfy His Own Will To Meaning.
