The Book of Assistance by Imam Al-Haddad (translated by Mostafa Badawi) - I'm a religious person and read a lot of literature related to that. Most of them provide a temporary high and then no particular benefit after. This was a notable exception. It was extremely practical and much of what I read affected me and made me changed the way I lived. It's highly specific to Islam though and much of the advice might not be relevant to others. https://fonsvitae.com/product/the-book-of-assistance-imam-ab...
