Keys to Success - The 17 Principles of Personal Achievement by Napoleon Hill
Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman
Awaken the Giant Within by Anthony Robbins
How to Live the Life You Love by Barbara Sher
(I differ with the author in some areas. She gives "nature" credit for things I trust God for, and I encourage people to view life through the lens of my Five Foundations, which I doubt she would agree with. With those things in mind, this book has some good and practical suggestions for finding our magical design)
Self Matters by Phillip C. McGraw, Ph.D. ("Dr. Phil")
(This provides a basic foundation for good self esteem, if you currently have poor self esteem. The author agrees with the concept of a magical design. On page 254 he says "You begin this life with a constellation of gifts, skills, abilities, traits, and characteristics that uniquely define you. You have within you every skill, capacity, insight, and wisdom necessary to your mission in life.")
