A few come to mind, all pretty much standards:
“First Things First” and “7 Habits …” Steve Covey
“Stop Worrying and Start Living” and “How to Make Friends…” by Dale Carnegie
“Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff” by Richard Carlson
“Mental Health through will training” and “Manage your fears, Manage your anger” A. Low (founded Recovery Inc meetings)
“Random Acts of Kindness”
“Creative Visualization” Shakti Gawain… very new agey but some good ideas
“Everything I needed to know I learned in kindergarten”
“Life 101” series although some parts sound a bit delusional
“101 Habits of Happy/Successful People” Niven ?
“See You At the Top” by Zig Ziglar… His audiobooks are pretty good too
I am not very pleased with Gary Zukav - he comes across to me as disliking schizophrenics and I think he is pretty loopy himself
…some of these you can find as free audiobook streams on YouTube
Every self help book I have ever read has some delusional thinking mixed into it so evaluate everything you read based on your own experiments.

The Book Of Five Rings. It’s more about the process of being the best. It’s very esoteric but interesting.

I wanted to become StarCraft pro player so I bought art of war book and book of five rings . Then I found peak. And when I read it I decided that it’s better to realise myself to become an artist. Because it’s more developed branch. And more stable and healthier
