A GREAT BOOK WITH A BAD TITLE

In 2019, Scott Adams published Loserthink: How Untrained Brains are Ruining the World. I don't think it ever really took off. He even mentioned his disappointment in the book's performance in his final statement to the world upon his death!

I think the problem was the title. A book like this should spread through word of mouth, but it's difficult to recommend a book called Loserthink to someone you care about. 

Plus, Adams was incessantly optimistic and the book reflects that optimism, but the subtitle comes across so negative.

It's a shame, because the book is insightful. I found it incredibly valuable for life and ministry.  

Today I want to pass along a recommendation from Adams located near the end of that book. The reading list he suggested there was worth the price I paid for Loserthink. (Especially the first two books.)

Here's what Adams wrote:

"If you want to understand the world as it is, instead of the myth of human rationality, any one of these books will set you free. I recommend reading them in this order:

Influence - by Robert Cialdini

The Power of Habit - by Charles Duhigg

Thinking, Fast and Slow - by Daniel Kahneman

Win Bigly - by Scott Adams"

Do it - your mind will be blown.
