"Helplessness: On Depression, Development and Death" - I haven't read this book yet, but it was recommended on the "Joel on Software" book reviews, which I found to be of value. It is also written from the Cognitive-Behavioural Psychology viewpoint. Naturally, becoming a more psychologically-capable person is a process. No one is fully friendly, tactful, helpful, and considerate at all times. But one must always aspire to be more. For example, at one of the workplaces I had, whenever I told my boss that I didn't finish what he asked for, but instead found out something else of importance or made some other progress he said "So what you're saying is that you didn't achieve anything.". This is a classical case of the "All or Nothing Thinking" cognitive error, which is given in "Feeling Good" as a possible primary cause of depression. This attitude caused me to think and feel that nothing I could do, would possibly please him, and that he was demotivating on purpose. This was one of the reasons that caused me to assume a variation of a clinical depression called "Hypomania", which in turn made me under-productive.

It is important to read success and failure stories of what people did, what mistakes they performed and what are their conclusions. I believe we can learn more from the failures of ourselves and others
