Think and Grow Rick (Re-read)- the first book on mindset, goals, building a mastermind group and self-teaching.  He has a very interesting perspective on mindset and belief.  Although the book is very old and the way he articulates his point is dated.  It has some very good points on limiting beliefs, mindset and peer groups (mastermind alliances).
