I wrote the book Do It Right and Consulting For Profit both Published by PublishAmerica. Do It Right is a short but powerful advice book. Following the tips in Do It RIght helps one improve in many areas. The advice is simple but not simplistic, not whimpy but not overly hard to follow either, not altruistic but does have social value, not a bore to read but not just light entertainment.
I also wrote the book Consulting For Profit which goes over many areas of consulting including getting business, the history of consulting, finances for consultants, decision making, and image building. Consulting For Profit is about consulting but offers many insights for everyone.
The CD What It Takes is an audio self help CD of immense value.
