Get in the Van by Henry Rollins isn't a self help book per se.
But it you're a musician you NEED to read it no matter what you think of Henry, or Black Flag. Kind of sort of changed my life.
So I just got done re-reading How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. Great stuff. Also just read The Examined Life by Robert Nozick. Also good.
Anyone else have any good (not embarassing) self-help-ish sort of book reccomendations?
Also recently reread The Philosophy of Andy Warhol, not as good as I remember it seeming when I was in college.

If you're looking for something on how to deal with life's quarks, The Sedona Method is a good book.
It's helped me regain my sanity.

Hey I really appreciate all the reccomendations. They all seem really good and I just got done ordering a lot of them on amazon.

Maybe not what you have in mind, but I've found The Art of Worldly Wisdom by Balthasar Gracian indispensible at times.
To boldly go where lots of men have gone before...
