“The process of **logotherapy can be summarized in these five steps**:
1. **A person feels empty**, frustrated, or anxious.
2. The **therapist shows him that what he is feeling is the desire to have a meaningful life**.
3. The patient **discovers his life’s purpose** (at that particular point in time).
4. Of his own free will, **the patient decides to accept or reject that destiny**.
5. This **newfound passion for life helps him overcome obstacles** and sorrows.”
