 Seven Habits of Highly Effective People
Up until about 50 years ago writers of self-improvement books concentrated on the character ethic, teaching that there are basic principles of effective living, and that people can only experience true success and enduring happiness as they learn and integrate these principles into their basic character.
Success was seen as a function of personality, public image, attitudes and behaviors, skills and techniques, that lubricate the processes of human interaction.
But some parts of this personality-based approach were clearly manipulative and deceptive, encouraging people to do their best to get others to like them, or fake interest in the hobbies of others to get out of them what they wanted, or to intimidate others to get what they wanted.

Especially valuable was the "7 Lies of Success" section, which emphasizes that our beliefs are a choice, and should therefore be chosen in a way that supports the pursuit of our life's purpose.
