Viktor Frankl, the Viennese Jewish psychiatrist who was sent to a German concentration camp during the Second World War, wrote a book called Man’s Search for Meaning. Quite a good book. In it, he said that regardless of the intellectual or psychological abuse he was subjected to in the camp, no one could cause him to think something he didn’t want to think. The same is true of your actions. We choose to do everything that we do. “She made me do it!” Oh no, no, no, no, no. She didn’t make you do it. There might have been a little war if you’d decided not to do it. The alternative might have been uncomfortable. But she didn’t make you do it—you chose to. We’ve got to take responsibility for what we’re doing. We’ve got to take responsibility for our life!
