[easyazon_link identifier=”0553378384″ locale=”US” tag=”kwmarket01-20″]”Astrology for the Soul” by Jan Spiller[/easyazon_link]
One of our favorite books on personal growth (with a cosmic twist) is Jan Spiller’s Astrology for the Soul . It talks about the north and south nodes in the birth chart, which are the “destiny points”. The concept is that we all bring in karma and things we’ve mastered from past lives. After all, how can you explain someone who can sit down and play piano by ear or is born a math genius? That can be pinpointed by the south node. But we also have a karmic “job” or learning curve, called the north node, which is a new set of skills and self-awareness that we came to develop in this lifetime. This book speaks so compelling about what the nodes are here to teach us—it left our jaws on the floor. Whether or not you believe in past lives, it explained so much and put our struggles in perspective, framing them as a karmic journey rather than a senseless uphill battle.Farnoosh Brock

It’s different because it offers nine real-time experiments, set up with lab report sheets, to test the laws of the universe. It’s funny and easy to read. I get emails every day from readers who try the experiments. They usually start with “You are NEVER going to believe this!”Laura and Mark Tong

I highly recommend “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success”, by psychologist Carol Dweck. Dr. Dweck explains that instead of believing that intelligence and talent are fixed traits, everyone should develop a Growth Mindset. People with a Growth Mindset believe that abilities and talents can be cultivated through instruction and practice.Chris Guillebeau

If I had to pick just one book, it would be Jack Canfield’s book, The Success Principles. This served as my bible when I started my business because its emphasis is on mindset rather than strategy. Over the years, I’ve learned that an entrepreneurial mindset is far more important for success than any strategy you can learn.Phoebe Lapine

I truly believe that we are all creative beings, and yet our creativity is the root of so much fear. This book has no modules or exercises or how-to’s. Gilbert is a story-teller (one of the world’s best) and her tales of courage under creative fire are will help anyone face down their own demons. Every time I feel fear rear its ugly head, I open this book.Tomas Laurinavicius

Best book on self-improvement I ever read is called Power of Now. Why? It made me realize that happiness can never be found in the future. You can do all self-development you want but if you don’t understand that you will never feel like you arrived, so I believe that this is one of the most important pieces of insights to understand!Bron

Reading Gretchen Rubin’s Better Than Before was a game-changer for me. The book is about habits and motivations and is packed with really useful ideas for changing both. Identifying my tendency has really changed my approach to things and I feel more in control of my habits and life in general (Rubin has a new book coming out which focuses exclusively on the four tendencies)Cynthia Sue Larson

[easyazon_link identifier=”0060724277″ locale=”US” tag=”kwmarket01-20″]”I’m OK- You’re OK” by Thomas Harris[/easyazon_link]
My favorite self development book is the first one I read: I’m OK- You’re OK, written by Thomas Harris and published in 1967. I read it in 1969 when I was in college. I’m OK-You’re OK delves into the theory of transactional analysis. But it does so in an easy to read and non-theoretical manner. Dr. Harris created a simple two by two matrix that lists four life positions: 1) I’m OK-You’re OK, 2) I’m OK-You’re Not OK, 3) I’m Not OK- You’re OK, and 4) I’m Not OK-You’re Not OK. He explains that human communication suffers when participants in a conversation come from any position other than the first one. This book has helped me greatly. When I am feeling in a one down position, I remind myself that I’m OK. When I’m upset with another person, I remind myself that he or she is OK. This life stance has helped me work through some potentially difficult interpersonal conflicts.Richard Darrel

Hard to narrow this down to just one, but I would say Gretchen Rubin’s Better Than Before. It’s all about effective and long-lasting habit formation. I nearly didn’t read the book because I’d already read so much about habits and couldn’t see what else could be added to the conversation. What Gretchen added was her genius ‘Four Tendencies’ framework that explains why some people find it easy to make new habits and why some really struggle. This has been a game-changer for so many people I talk with and I can’t wait to read Gretchen’s next book which is all about those Four Tendencies.Neil Eneix

It’s difficult to choose one self help book that stands above the rest since there are so many good ones. My personal favourite is still the classic, “How to Win Friends and Influence People” by Dale Carnegie because of the focus it puts on empathy being key to success and personal development. In order to move forward personally, you have to understand how to engage others toward moving forward with you.Saikat Basu

It focuses on setting small, daily habits to help you achieve big goals. I’m using it to train for an ultramarathon (by running and stretching twice a week) and write a book (by writing for an hour on my lunchbreak, four times a week). The latter discipline has got me to 80,000 words over the last 12 months.Joel Brown

My top Self Development book is “The Bible”. I have read hundreds of books on self development and I’d have to say the Bible is unparalleled when it comes to learning about adversity, wisdom, compassion and faith. There is a reason why the bible has sold over 2.5 Billion copies worldwide. The parables are memorable, the stories are groundbreaking and the promise of God’s Love and Salvation gives me faith in my darkest of hours.Marla Martenson

I was a student when I read it. I was unemployed and I was struggling with financial issues. I had a low confidence in myself. I felt worried but I didn’t know what would be the best solution.This book helped me a lot because, in addition to offering positive advice, it also included a lot of examples of highly successful people that had a rough time when they were younger. Some even went through suicide attempts or extreme poverty (like being homeless). This made me realize that my situation wasn’t so bad as I imagined.Liz Froment

My favorite book is How To Heal Yourself When No One Else Can because it’s the book I wrote to help others who were feeling lost, sick, and frustrated from trying everything to get better. During my own healing journey from chronic illness, I read so many books with great techniques. But there was no book that combined techniques into a practical method or system. Eventually, I created my own healing system that integrated everything I had learned while healing myself permanently and completely; and I put all of that in a book for others so they could do the same.Klaudia

“Outliers” takes a scientific look at what it actually takes to achieve success. Unlike some of the other books on the market, it does not give a specific list of the things you need to do to achieve success. Instead, it looks at very interesting anecdotes that support the main point of the book, that success is not achieved by luck, attitude or even skill, but that the only real measurement is the time we put into our skills. Genius is overrated. Success is not just about innate ability. It’s combined with a number of key factors such as opportunity, meaningful hard work (10,000 hours to gain mastery), and your cultural legacy. Random factors of chance, such as when and where you were born can influence the opportunities you have.Brandon Smith

[easyazon_link identifier=”0743234804″ locale=”US” tag=”kwmarket01-20″]”The Power of Positive Thinking” by Norman Vincent Peale[/easyazon_link]
This has been one of my favorite reads. The world is filled with so much negativity, I felt like I was being swallowed into a negative atmosphere. Reading the Power of Positive Thinking helped me change the process. For example, my job requires me to spend a lot of time on Social Media. And we all know that social media if filled with negativity. After reading The Power of Positive Thinking, I was able to remove the negative thinking people from my life and surround myself with positing thinking individuals. The results ended in my daily life being much more pleasant. The main difference is this book verses compared to others I’ve read is that it gave examples of discipline to follow. Thus making it much easier for me to follow along and implement into my daily life.Dan Western

There are a lot of different self-development books out there and sometimes it can be hard to cut through the noise. One of my favorites has to be ‘The Magic of Thinking Big’. The concept behind the book is simple, and it’s necessary for a successful life.

Of all the 50+ books I’ve read on the subject of self development my favourite would be “The Science Of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles.” I know; the name sounds so far from the subject and related more to money or wealth, but that’s the thing. I think I had this disconnection with trying to apply all that I’d learned and studied on the subject and I needed a way to fuse it all together. That’s what the Science Of Getting Rich Did. It opened up my mindset on a different wave length. To embrace my now, to understand the concept of the law of the universe and to really give myself the opportunity to live fully. To be me.Shawn Kinkade

The 4-Hour Workweek may not be a typical self-help book. But in my view, it’s an essential read for any one interested in leveraging digital entrepreneurship and lifestyle design to ditch the conventional 9-5 life.

I think it won’t be wrong to say that I attribute at least part of my success as a serial entrepreneur, digital marketer, to this book. It has helped me automate tons of things. My ability to manage work with colleagues and clients from offshore locations while traveling and what not has surely been inspired from the location independence mantra of Ferriss.

I originally picked this book up because I am a former track athlete and can’t wait to hit the minimum age to qualify for Masters Track. But this book wasn’t just a biography on Olga, it was a combo of scientific inquiry into all the factors that may or may not have contributed to her athletic success at such an old age. Working with scientists the author, Bruce Grierson, gives an understandable overview of DNA traits Olga had as well as break down of the different kind of genetics that affect athletic performance. I was finally able to learn why I struggle so much at distance running but adore sprinting, turns out I have the power ACTN3 gene versus the endurance, and a genetic test confirmed this. Besides the science, the book also digs deep into lifestyle choices that can also affect your body as you age. One of the biggest take aways for me is that starting a sport at an old age was actually an indicator for a longer life!

- As a Man Thinketh by James Allen published in 1902. This little book has influenced the work of many respected personal-development leaders. Allen shares that “as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” Allen helps readers to understand that thoughts and character are inseparably intertwined. Allen provides a lesson of personal responsibility taking precedence over thoughts and actions. He advises that we should set aside focused time to reflect and discover ourselves and our dreams, and to put forth energy and time to make those dreams reality.
- The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shin published in 1925. The author uses simple stories that everyone can identify with to illustrate the lessons about living with greater success, happiness, and freedom. She teaches that words, thoughts, and emotions attract to us the life that we’re living. If we want a different life, we need to change our words, thoughts, and emotions to be in line with what we desire

I read the book and tried many of the simple exercises following my mom’s death. Even though I teach and write about emotional intelligence, I learned a lot. Sadness was easy to identify while other feelings lied deeper. The book helped me to identify and feel them. I know this helped me to navigate my mom’s passing with grace.

The book Oneness is the most profound book that I’ve read since my awakening journey began about 3 or 4 years ago. It is definitely in the very esoteric category, so it certainly will not resonate with everyone, but one thing is for sure ― it is definitely unlike anything you’ve ever read before. It will either make your head spin, and you’ll put it down before finishing the first chapter and never come back, or you will be hooked. Oneness is an in-depth guide to the great transformation of consciousness that is in progress on earth, the ascension process, the true nature of ourselves and our existence, and how we create our reality with our thoughts, beliefs, and more. The book is very detailed and touches on some very advanced metaphysical concepts that you may have never heard of before. There is much practical advice about how to navigate the process of self-transformation, self-empowerment, and self-mastery ― including mastery of your creatorship. Note that all of the information in the book was channeled through Rasha from a source calling itself “Oneness” which most presume is a synonym for Source or God.Chris Barez-Brown

There are far too many personal development books to choose from that have really helped me grow. So my favourite right now is one from this year, Stealing Fire. Having spent the last 20 years exploring non-ordinary states in helping people become more creative, Stealing Fire is the most comprehensive, exciting and up-to-date account of how others have been exploring this field from many different angles. After reading it I realised that I was not alone in this pursuit. It really makes life more extraordinary. If only once a day we can become more conscious of who we are our lives will be enhanced beyond belief.Carly

Unlike many other books that promise more than they can deliver, “Unfolding Happiness” defines a simple clear path; a change in behavior that leads in a change in attitude, rather than the other way around.Ed Robinson

I would not call it a self-development book really, but it is a book that not only changed the way I see the world, but also changed the way I see myself. Nikola Tesla is a man who invented a lot of wonderful things we are using today, but that was not what grabbed me as I read the book. I saw a man who was not afraid to dream and then did not give up until he found a way to actualise his dream. This was remarkable. I am a dreamer, but I never really tried to create the things I dreamt about. After reading this book though, it changed everything. It has opened my mind to a world of possibilities that I did not dare imagine before now.Allyson Conklin

Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kyosaki changes your paradigm and the way that you view money and value. The first lesson Robert learned from his Rich Dad was that the rich do not work for money. They create assets and produce value for others. They understand that if they create assets and businesses that solve other peoples challenges and problems and that produce value for people, that money and value will flow back into their own lives. They keep reinvesting their money into assets and businesses that provide value and solve problems so that their money works for them and the perpetually multiply their money. The more people the assets and business they create provide for others and the bigger the challenges and problems they help solve, the more money and value will flow back into their own lives. Money is simply a medium of exchange for the value they create and problems they solve.Eric Kasimov

This is what makes it different because it is just like talking to a friend. Learning to let go, something that for is hard, learning to forgive myself, something that is harder for me, has all become easier thanks to this book. It opened my heart to new things that come my way and to continue living my life as happily as I can. And if that wasn’t enough, there is a worksheet bundle, which is extremely helpful. Jessica lists the steps you need pursue what you want with all the extra information you need in order for you to succeed.

And more importantly, the male priests who wrote the women disciples — especially Mary Magdalene — out of history and subjugated them to the shadows.
This doesn’t work for the world to be in balance and for us to actually move forward. And as more and more people are coming into a new age of consciousness, they are questioning the history presented to us as unalterable fact.
This is significant to me because I am not a woman who sits quietly and watches the world fall apart around me. My job as a craniosacral therapist is to help those understand a deeper level of consciousness and my job as an empowered female business owner is to lead by example to bring other women into their power.

Yes, the book is a bit ridiculous and unrealistic at points, but it is the book that made me realize I could design the life that I really want. And it taught me that small habits can make a huge difference in your life (e.g. not checking email first thing in the morning or last thing before bed). Ultimately, this is the book that got me hooked on self-development and ignited a passion that has lasted for over a decade now.Jen Williamson

She is the grand dame of affirmations and the first time I read her book it blew me away. Reading it, things clicked for me that I knew intuitively but never put to words. She discusses ways to change our thoughts so we may also change our bodies and our lives. Something to note though, we co-create our lives and that means there are certain things that are out of our hands.Anna Cope

In my experience as a wellness and career coach, healthy lifestyle blogger and former HR manager in the United Nations – any change comes from understanding that change is needed. The book: “You Can If You Think You Can” by Norman Vincent Peale is a classic but literally stops your busy thought flow . The whole idea that you are at the core of what needs to shift. You therefore make the difference. My coaching clients are often stuck in a circle of indecision which is fuelled my low self esteem and confidence. I recommend this book on my site and to my clients as it provokes you to shift to a new tune. You can see how you are able to trigger your own change – be it a career transformation or a healthier lifestyle. To change you need to understand that its needed, and then actively choose to change and participate body, mind (and soul) in each step. You can change – but you have to believe that you can! And this is why this book really motivates you to look at things through a different lens.Simon Henderson

Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life by Anne Lamott is the only self-help book I’ve read on repeat. Those interested in self-development who have little or no interest in learning about writing needn’t be put off by that part of the title, as Bird by Bird has so much else to say about how to take things a step at a time and how to eschew perfectionism and generally how to be in the world, and author Lamott does this without being preachy or clinical or annoying. Lamott writes in such a clear, humorous, self-effacing style you just feel like she’s your friend who cares about your well-being.Jessica G. Ferrer

Elizabeth Gilbert’s “Big Magic” really transformed my perspective as a shy, aspiring writer. Speaking as a writer herself that found fame and still struggled with fear, I admired her honesty and how she empowered fellow writers and creatives by addressing all our fears, noting that fear is not something to be suppressed but something we should learn to live side by side with. After reading the book, I noticed a shift in my perspective in that I no longer saw fear as a barrier to my passion but as a fuel and necessary evil. Because if it’s something that plagued and continues to plague the author of Eat Pray Love, then why should it stop me from accomplishing anything?Cecilia Gorman
