Books like Help!: How to Be Slightly Happier, Slightly More Successful and Get a Bit More Done

The thing about self help type books, like writing advice books and management books, is they tend to have basically one genuinely useful nugget of advice and the rest of the £7.99 book is there as scaffolding for it. This book is all the nuggets of advice, no scaffolding. As such it's actually crammed with really useful thoughts, and extensively annotated so you can do some further reading for the points where you want depth. (Which you will not get here--it's an overview.) It's very funny at points and in no way proselytising, but does give respect to ideas that are clearly good ones.I've annotated the heck out of it, bought two books from the bibiography, and got my email inbox down to under 20. I call that a success.
