Victor Frankl a psychiatrist developed Logotherapy after surving Nazi's concentration camp in 1940's. Logotherapy is a part of existential psychology. Theory says that human nature is motivated by the search for a meaning of life.  It is made of three basic principles: that life has meaning in all situations; one of the main motivational force is the desire to seek meaning in life and that we have freedom to choose attitude even in the unfavourable and unchangeable situation. 

Frank stated that humans can find meaning through being creative, experiential and by values of attitude.
