Todays fast-paced and high-stress culture has spawned thousands of self-help books, each promising to be the key to living a happier and more successful life. With so much choice, it is easy for quality titles to get lost among the shelves. The following 50 books are some of the most influential self-help books of all time.
This book, published in 1980, is responsible for bringing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to the forefront of psychoanalytic theory. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a treatment strategy for depression that involves conscious restructuring of harmful thought and behavior patterns under the care of a trained psychotherapist. Burns best-seller is responsible for bringing this theory out of academia and to the average reader.
Over the last 35 years, Feeling Good has become one of the most recommended books by psychologists to help depression patients understand their destructive thought patterns. It was one of the cornerstones in popularizing bibliotherapy, as research has shown depression patients who read Feeling Good as a supplement to regular check-ins with a mental health professional see sustained improvements in mood.
Burns theories in Feeling Good have revolutionized the field of Psychology, which has solidified its place among the most significant self-help books ever published.

Outliers, the third book from Malcolm Gladwell, discusses the collection of factors that go into high levels of success. Gladwell uses his training in Psychology and experience as a journalist to analyze complex social theories and present them in a way that is easy to digest.
Gladwell uses real-world examples like Bill Gates and The Beatles to illustrate the journey from obscurity to mainstream success and how it is possible for anyone who executes the right strategies. One example of such strategy is the 10,000 hour rule, which states any skill can be acquired by anybody willing to put in 10,000 hours worth of practice.
Gladwells ability to break down some of the greatest success stories of modern pop culture into actionable steps for the regular reader makes Outliers a motivational read.

The Seat of the Soul provides a unique take on life that blends science, philosophy, and spirituality. The main message Zukav stresses is the idea of humans going through a psychological and spiritual evolution.
