"The Logic of Failure" by Dietrich Dorner. Sort of an applied "Heuristics and Biases". "The Moral Animal" by Robert Wright. It unlocked the reasons why my impulses and aspirations were at such odds. "The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin". Very practical advice for how to better oneself. Caveat: Reading them earlier is one thing. Appreciating them is another.
