The Space Between Stimulus And Response

Start listening

In Man’s Search for Meaning, Dr. Victor Frankl tells us:

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing; the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way. Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

Wow! Everything can be taken from a person, but the freedom to choose one’s attitude under any circumstances. In the space between stimulus and response lies our growth and freedom. Let’s increase our responsibility.
