Book - Learned Optimism by Martin Seligman

‘The three Ps of pessimism’ comes from psychologist, Martin Seligman’s, book titled Learned Optimism.

Pessimists tend to explain bad events through personalisation, permanence and pervasiveness. This style makes it difficult for them to recover from setbacks.
