@james_clear @dzyngiri Ditto on this one, it's really good, no-nonsense book on how to improve your life. No chapters on "believing hard enough" or anything like that, just straight to the point advice.
7 habits of highly effective people. One of the best books I've read

Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind by Shunryu Suzuki. I stumbled across him while reading the biography of Steve Jobs :)

I'd say a wonderful one is Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl. It's about a holocaust survivor and his experiences in a concentration camp. Some great quotes from it: “Those who have a 'why' to live, can bear with almost any 'how'.” “Happiness cannot be pursued; it must ensue.” “I recommend that the Statue of Liberty on the East Coast be supplemented by a Statue of Responsiblity on the West Coast.”

"Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman. It shows that we are not as smart and reasoned as we think we are.
