Genre or Topic/Theme Related: Self Improvement/Self Help books

[Jamie (The Perpetual Page-Turner), The Founding Bookworm]

I'm not one that normally likes self improvement/self help type books. But I decided that I'd give some a try but I'd rather get your opinions of books that were particularly helpful to you or that you've heard good things about. I'm just feeling like I'm bored with my life lately and very unhappy with my life working a job I hate and I want to be happy and to actually want to start living the way i want..not be unhappy at a job I hate and being envious of those who are doing all the things i want to do.

So..anyways..any suggestions?

I know some decent ones on writing, but that's about it.
* edit: I went through my bookshelves and remembered Stumbling on Happiness

Someone I know recommended Choose Peace & Happiness A 52-Week Guide as well as The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

My friend recommended these self improvement blog/books: http://livewealthycoach.com and Nutrition Facts Apple.

I would recommend How To Be Free, which I found really useful and interesting and uplifting when I was feeling kinda stuck and stuffy recently.
