-Leading an Inspired Life, JIM ROHN
-The Healing Power of Enzymes, Dicqie Fuller

-The 4 Agreements, Don Miguel Ruiz

And if you'd like to elaborate on why the book helped you then be my guest.

"Touch the Top Of The World" by Erik Weihenmayer.

I was fortunate enough to actually shake his hand, get his autograph, receive his book, and hear his life story as a blind man and his journey's up the World's most highest peaks.

He made me change my whole perspective on how I live my life.

Vagabonding by Rolf Potts - very inspiring book about travel and how it relates to life
The Primal Blueprint by Mark Sisson - debunks a lot of the false info about health and fitness
The Warrior Diet by Ori Hofmekler - introduced me to health and fitness
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
The Art of Non Conformity by Chris Guillbeau - approaches life in a different way than most people. Very refreshing and inspiring
Pain Free by Pete Egoscue - very interesting and unique approach to health and fitness
Edit: I've heard good things about "Ishmael" and Dale Carnegie's work. 4 Hour Work Week is good too. Tim Ferris did a good job with it.

Dale hung out with wealthy people, point blank. I don't remember if he was wealthy (rockafeller wealthy) himself, but all i know is that he would analyze, interview and probe gestures and mannerisms of the wealthy class and give some tips on how to become a better communicator (not by talking but by listening <- simple tips like this). The book is a real simple and classic read. It definitely helped with my social life and his tips are golden. Don't be shy to buy it cuz you could buy one for less than $5 on sites like half.com (i bought it there).

It made me see how pointless just picking up girls when I go out really is.
