Chapter 9 Section 4 The special mission of Jewish prisoners?

Only by controlling your own psychology can you overcome yourself, overcome the harsh environment, and survive the crisis. ? ?

During World War II, a Jewish psychologist was imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp. He was Frank.His parents, wife and brother were all killed by the Nazis, and his only family member was his sister.At that time, he was often tortured, and the door of death could be opened to him at any time. ?
One day, when he was alone in the prison cell, he suddenly realized a truth: As far as the objective environment is concerned, I am controlled by others and have no freedom; however, my self-awareness is independent, and I can freely determine the influence of external stimuli on myself degree. ?
Frank discovered that between external stimuli and his own reactions, he had the freedom and ability to choose how to respond. ?
Therefore, he constantly enriches his life and soul with various memories, imaginations and expectations.He learned psychological control and constantly tempered his will.His free mind has already surpassed the imprisonment of the Nazis. ?
This state of mind inspired the other prisoners.He assisted the inmates to find the meaning of life and regain their dignity in the midst of suffering. ?
Frank later wrote: Everyone has their own special work and mission, and others cannot replace them.Life is only once and cannot be repeated.Therefore, there is only one chance to realize the goal of life...In the final analysis, it is not you asking what is the meaning of life, but life is asking you to question, it requires you to answer: what is the meaning of your existence?You can answer this question confidently only if you are responsible for your own life. ?
At the most painful and critical moment in Frank's life, at the critical point of Frank's mental collapse, he relied on his own epiphany and successful psychological regulation to save not only himself, but also many suffering lives. ?
In the end, Frank survived tenaciously and finally walked out of the nightmare Nazi concentration camp. ?
Mind walk?

The famous American psychologist Frank wrote the book "Every Suffering Is the Wealth of Life", which is what he told about his own suffering experience and the trajectory of his thoughts.It is not difficult to see that in the worst environment, Frank tried to control his emotions and psychological feelings through his strong willpower, so as to overcome himself and the surrounding environment, so that he could survive the crisis safely.It can be seen how powerful the psychological influence is on a person.Therefore, we must learn psychological regulation and be the master of our own emotions. ?
