Free Audiobook summary of the book LoserThink by Scott Adams.
Loserthink has unproductive ways of thinking. Even if you’re intelligent and well-informed, you can fall into the trap of loserthink. The book describes the many different ways in which loserthink can manifest and lead to suboptimal outcomes.

Mental Prisons
Loserthink (unproductive thinking) creates mental prisons that limit your ability to see the world clearly. You won't be able to act rationally if you can't see the world clearly.
