First ask yourself, what do I want to improve in myself? 
Then ask yourself all the questions you have about that, then go find answers on books or the web

A book I didn't find in the book list that has been a game changer for me has been Tony Buzan's The Mind Map Book


Also doesn't this belong to the High Consciousness Resources?

Ken Wilber's "No boundary" I bought it in two languages and underlined like 90% of it. 

It answered so many questions for me. That's the kind of book I one day hope to write

For me I love biographies on great lives such as Einstien, Da vinci etc. I just read a book on Michelangelo, and actually ended up making a video of the lessons I learned it was so powerful!

In the effort to build my business, these books have been crucial for me:
A More Beautiful Question by Warren Berger (about inquiry, how to ask better questions, it's helping me design better products/services)
Universal Principles of Design: 100 Ways to Enhance Usability, Influence Perception, Increase Appeal, Make Better Design Decisions, and Teach Through Design (will help you design better products/services and understand the process of infinite creation at the same time)
Down and Out in Paris and London by George Orwell (detailed descriptions of squalid living/working conditions, lit a fire under my ass to escape wage slavery)
Blue Ocean Strategy: How to Create Uncontested Market Space and Make the Competition Irrelevant by W. Chan Kim & Renee Mauborgne (exactly what it says on the tin, provides a framework to help you craft a unique and powerful value proposition so you can provide massive value to others)
The 4 Disciplines of Execution by Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, and Jim Huling (If you struggle with procrastination and following through on finishing projects, this book is for you. Works for both individuals and collectives/companies)
