Ive read a lot of them. Recently bought Meditations of Marcus Aurelius. Ive been reading a little of it here and there. Its not easy reading, kind of like the bible, but full of good wisdom

I don't know if they're technically considered self help books, but I've read several by Dale Carnegie. I always take away a lot from his books.

Most definitely dale carnegie. He was one of the early self help gurus. How to win friends and influence people!!! I found that book when I was 14 years old and read thru it with a fine tooth comb. One time I told my friends at school about the book, they all laughed. So from then on, that book was my secret weapon. Changed my life at 14 years old. I bet my old friends who laughed wish they had read that book now. lol
