Mine is Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol S. Dweck. It taught me the power of a growth mindset, transforming challenges into opportunities for growth.

Off the top of my head: (less career and more personal development)

1. Finite & Infinite Games, by James Carse

2. Flow, by Czikszentmihalyi

3. The evolving self, by Robert Kegan

4. Man's search for meaning, by Victor Frankl

5. A fine balance, by Rohinton Mistry (fiction)

6. Lila, by Robert Pirsig (fiction)

Mindset is on my list as well. I spent my high school years definitely locked in the fixed mindset. The transition to college was thus challenging. Peak and Ultralearning mske some good points as well.
