About the book
Learned Optimism: How to Change Your Mind and Your Life by Martin Seligman is a powerful book that delves into the concept of optimism and how it can be cultivated to transform your life.

The book offers practical techniques to shift from a pessimistic mindset to an optimistic one, emphasizing that optimism is not just a personality trait but a skill that can be learned and mastered.
