Loserthink

If you've been on social media lately, or turned on your TV, you may have noticed a lot of dumb ideas floating around. Even the smartest and most educated among us can slip into loserthink's seductive grasp, since we haven't been exposed to the best thinking practices in every discipline. Psychologists, engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, historians, and artists, for example, all see the world through different filters. If we don't understand the basics of those filters, we're likely to fall into loserthink.

Some signs you've succumbed to loserthink include: inability to get your ego out of your decisions, thinking with words instead of reasons, failing to imagine alternative explanations, trusting your preferred news sources, and making too much of coincidences. And with the never-ending stream of urgent notifications on your phone and anger on your social media feeds, it's easy to feel miserable, defensive, anxious, poor, and sick. But Adams offers a cure for loserthink by teaching you the most productive thinking practices.

In this book you will learn that your bubble of reality doesn't have to be a prison.
