ITT: your GOAT tier self improvement books from the misc (before were shut down)

my personal list:
tony robbins: money master the game (not on misc but i loved this srs)
atomic habits
physco-cybernetics
rich dad poor dad
the rationale male

non-books:
Moreplatesmoredates youtube channel
techlead youtube channel life advice:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7bG3D8JQig
(a lot of techlead advice is chitposting, but this is SOLID advice srs, watched this vid like 2 years ago and it still resonates with me.)
Graham Stephen financial advice + life attitude ( dude has achieved so much while being 5'2" the misc would seethe and it's from having a LIKEABLE PERSONALITY, not his financial statements)
Johny sins. (pronstar) dude just has a 1 in a million aura.

pls list as much powerful info you've gotten from books/media that improve life quality.
the more info, the better.
this place is 100% getting shut down this year, we're already quarantine by account only login. It's time to make rapid self improvement and growth before we go back to real life w/o misc'ing

The count of monte cristo (all self help books teach you about how to do x, but they don't teach you how to have hope and all the emotional stuff that comes with it, this book does''.

psychology of the fighting man
arnold schwarzenegger - education of a bodybuilder
michael jordan - i can't accept not trying
donald trump art of the deal & art of the comeback
franco columbu - coming on strong

As you can see, lots of autobiographies in this list instead of just self help books. I like to learn from successful people. Their life stories, quotes, wisdom, mistakes etc, it teaches a lot.

Atomic Habits and the 5am Club

edit:

For youtube I like Matt D'Avella. He's a pretty well known name now, but he does a good job with self-improvement content and has a good humor and attitude about him while being an amazing video maker.
