This book is a little off-topic, but hey! Ann is the author!
A Kitchen You Love is an examination of what makes a kitchen really work in your home – the difference between a kitchen that looks great, and one that looks great AND is a joy to work and entertain in. You know, it’s not much fun to use a dysfunctional kitchen. It can be very frustrating and aggravating. This book gives you all the tips and knowledge you need to make sure your kitchen design is functional!
From the book description:
Create a kitchen that works as hard as you do, one that flows and fits YOUR life style. Functionality is often overlooked when surrounded by the glamour and sparkle of new cabinets, fixtures and appliances. But after the new wears off, the function – or dysfunction – remains. Get it right from the start by following the guidance in this book. Create a kitchen you will enjoy for years to come. Do you wonder what goes into a well thought out kitchen? Maybe you really want to do it yourself but are not sure where to start. Ann McKinley is a kitchen and bath designer with a degree in Mechanical Engineering as well as Food Science and Technology. She has many years of experience working with houses from the inside out. Through rental properties, rehabbing fixer-uppers and her general love of all things housing, Ann has accumulated a wealth of knowledge that she is sharing with you in this book. Ann is one of the rare Kitchen and Bath designers who has construction skills and knowledge, as well as mechanical competency. She understands what is going on behind the walls, floors and ceiling, from structure to plumbing and electrical, as well as ergonomics. The kitchen is much more than pretty cabinets! This book is focused on providing an understanding of what will make your kitchen highly functional, and functionality is what makes it a joy to work in. It makes a kitchen you will enjoy for years to come.
This is a must-read book about how Timothy Ferriss built an online business. But that’s not why you should read it. Along with the internet business he covers things such as the 80/20 rule, as it applies to customers and time spent supporting them, i.e. 20% of your customers take 80% of your time. 20% of your customers produce 80% of your income. So, it’s worth really focusing on who you want to do business with, and maybe let some of the high maintenance customers go. It’s chock full of ideas of how you can work smarter rather than harder. Don’t be the fly in the window, described in the opening of You² by Price Pritchett

From the Amazon description:
In his powerful new book The Fred Factor, motivational speaker Mark Sanborn recounts the true story of Fred, the mail carrier who passionately loves his job and who genuinely cares about the people he serves. Because of that, he is constantly going the extra mile handling the mail – and sometimes watching over the houses – of the people on his route, treating everyone he meets as a friend. Where others might see delivering mail as monotonous drudgery, Fred sees an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of those he serves.

Maxwell Maltz MD was a plastic surgeon who learned that the big effect of the cosmetic surgery was the self-image of his patients. This book describes what he learned about self-image and our ability to decide and define what our self-image is. He describes the technique of practicing running the “movie” in your mind of how you want things to be – which enable you to actually create that in your life.
