书籍推荐:《追寻生命的意义》(Man's Search For Meaning)
这是由奥地利精神科医生Victor Frankl所写的心理学经典著作,在🇺🇲国会图书馆调查中被评为最有影响力的10本书之一。
作者分享了他在二战期间在纳粹集中营中的生活经历。即使这段时间充满痛,但他成功地在这种环境下寻找到了生命的意义。作者的观点是:我们每个人都需要找到我们生命的意义,以便在生命的旅程中获得满足感和幸福感。
在本书中,作者解释了他的哲学理论,即他称之为“意义心理学”的概念。他认为,人们不仅仅是为了生存而生存,还需要寻找生命的意义,并通过追求这种意义来实现幸福和自我实现。而我们每个人都可以通过遇到生活中的挑战来发现我们生命的意义,这样我们就可以拥有更有意义的生活。
作者同样也讨论了人们在压力和困境中如何保持意志力和勇气,以及他们如何找到力量和勇气来面对生命中的困难。
如果你正在寻找一本挑战你的思考并改变你看待生命的方式的书籍,那么这本书绝对值得你一读。
以下是来自这本书的一些语录:
"当我们不再有能力改变一种情况时,我们就面临着改变自己的挑战。"
“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”
"那些有'为什么'要生活的人,几乎可以忍受任何'怎么做'。"
“Those who have a 'why' to live, can bear with almost any 'how'.”
"在某些方面,当痛苦找到一个意义的时候,它就不再是痛苦了,比如说牺牲的意义。"
“In some ways suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning, such as the meaning of a sacrifice.”
"对不正常情况的不正常反应是正常行为。"
“An abnormal reaction to an abnormal situation is normal behavior.”
"幸福不能被追求,它必须随之而来。"
“Happiness cannot be pursued; it must ensue.”
"一个人对生命价值的担忧,甚至绝望,是一种存在上的困扰,但绝不是一种精神疾病。"
“A man's concern, even his despair, over the worthwhileness of life is an existential distress but by no means a mental disease.”
"如果生命有意义,那么痛苦就一定有意义。苦难是生命中不可磨灭的一部分。没有苦难,人类的生活就不可能是完整的"。
“If there is meaning in life at all, then there must be a meaning in suffering. Suffering is an ineradicable part of life. Without suffering human life cannot be complete.”
"任何人都不应该评判,除非他绝对诚实地问自己,在类似的情况下,他可能不会做同样的事。"
“No man should judge unless he asks himself in absolute honesty whether in a similar situation, he might not have done the same.”
"人不是简单地存在,而是始终决定他的存在将是什么,他在下一刻将成为什么。同样的道理,每个人都有在任何瞬间改变的自由"。
“Man does not simply exist but always decides what his existence will be, what he will become the next moment. By the same token, every human being has the freedom to change at any instant.”
"这不是摆脱条件的自由,而是对条件采取立场的自由。"
“It is not freedom from conditions, but it is the freedom to take a stand toward the conditions.”
"超出你控制的力量可以夺走你所拥有的一切,除了一样东西,就是你选择如何应对这种情况的自由。"
“Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation.”
"成功就像幸福一样,是无法追求的;它必须随之而来,而且它只是作为一个人对比自己更伟大的事业的个人奉献的意外副作用,或者作为一个人对自己以外的人投降的副产品。"
“For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself.”
