Strengths Finder 2.0 by Tom Rath

Strengths Finder 2.0 takes a different approach to helping yourself then most books I've read. Instead of telling you how to improve in areas you need improvement, or don't naturally succeed, it says to figure out what you naturally succeed in, and develop those further to become better. By starting out in what you are already good at, you can get farther with less work. Not only does the book explain why this is a good idea, but also gives a code to use on their website to take a test to find out your strengths. And once those strengths are found, the book explains what they mean, and how to improve on them. The book is a short, fast, and interesting read. I would advise anyone to read it.
