Favorite books for a successful mindset/ way of thinking? Books about pushing yourself to the limit

Not necessarily talking about motivational books, but rather a book from which you all have taken away a lot and has changed how you go about life for the better. Looking for inspirational, motivational books to give me the push to chase my goals, never give up, push hard and remain consistent and disciplined. Fiction and non-fiction

Thanks

What are must read books?  Which books would you consider a perfect 10/10 in your eyes? It doesn't matter if it's a self help book, a  popular classic or if it's an underrated gem that feels like only you've read it, please just share with me the books you consider perfect and maybe a little reason why you think so. Fiction or non fiction

Think and grow rich by Napoleon Hill

Atomic Habits by James Clear

How to win friends & influence people by Dan Carnegie

 

I listened to the audiobook but it was way too boring/just wasn't into it at the time. It's a classic though so I do want to try it again later so I can hopefully appreciate it.
