Mindsets can change though, and sometimes seeing how successful people think, how they act, what they read, can help adjust your own mindset. If you're a debbie downer, death-to-capitalists, anti-entrepreneur, then no books will likely help you, but if you're aspiring, then these can help guide you, shape your thinking.

That being said, your point is valid, reading these alone won't make you successful, that has to come from long, hard work, and just a little bit of luck.
