  1. The Dilbert Principle, by,Scott Adams,
  2. The Art of War, by, Sun Tzu,
  3. The One Minute Manager, by, K. Blanchard,
  4. The Elements of Style, by, William Strunk,
  5. How to Lie with Statistics, by, Darrell Huff

I leave the rest of the list for next time. I think these five books would generate some arguments. These have been invariably rated as the best self-help books. I dunno...How many of them have you guys read??

10. Now this one is in my top 5 of all books and I`d recommend it to anyone getting started in business (online/offline). It`s the 12 Month Millionaire -- they just came out with a 6 hour interview with the guy who wrote the book. Some amazing stuff that will have your head spinning for days:

 These are my favorites, and I recommend them to businesses on a regular basis. They are full of tidbits of useable information that relates to just about any business. Some of the ones people praise as the best are one big concept, these are full of many small, daily bits of information. If you can master sales, customer service, and have motivated, talented employees, business will be much easier, more successful, and more profitable.
