Wattles' book is not too bad but the content was polished up nicely by the generation 2.0 author Napoleon Hill.
Think and grow rich
That is the free online archive.org version. Here is the amazon page.
Occult pursuits are not necessarily contra material pursuits, but they are mostly orthogonal. In some places Hill's book seems like a good recipe for giving yourself an obsessive compulsive disorder. Anecdotally, there is no lack of unhappiness amongst the most (materially) successful people I know.
I realized the importance of using love and desire as stimulants to raise your vibration, not just semen retention. I’ve always felt that I lacked in love energy from past suffering, and have been told to start using my love energy more by an astrology reader. I remembered the last time I was in love and it’s true, my vibration was extremely high then, even before I knew about SR.
Here’s the book I have:

So just to get the ball rolling I'll share a key lesson that I've learned from my mentor, who's pretty high up there in the corporate world. As in this guy is featured in business magazines, works with billionaires and meets with CEOs of household name companies on a regular basis. That kind of level. That's not to brag (and he's not even the type that would himself anyway), that's to give weight to the advice he's given me that I'll share with you guys. Because it's coming from "the top of the mountain" so to speak.
The buzzwords at that level are CREATIVITY and INNOVATION. CEOs and leaders of all kinds of fields are desperate for creative thinkers who can come up with new ideas and solutions. No matter how competent and masterful you may be at doing what's already established in your field, if you don't have any drive to innovate then the furthest you will ever get is a "Worker Bee of the Year" award and a company mug when you retire.
Now this is obviously not "new" advice, since it's been out there since the 1930s. But in a shitty economy that is nothing like the one your parents faced, it is more crucial than ever. My mentor has told me that in this day and age, unless you are very highly specialized and rare, then getting someone capable of doing "typical" work processes is becoming much easier (and cheaper) every day. Somewhere in the world there is someone who can also do your job, is way more desperate for it, and will probably do it for cheaper than you.
What companies are willing to pay and pay well for is creativity and leadership in your field, because they will come to YOU for that.
This applies across all fields. STEM, or non-STEM. Whether you're on Wall Street, or in academia. Innovate, innovate, innovate. Don't just be "good" at what you do. Be a person who is pushing your field further in whatever ways you can. It doesn't have to be groundbreaking or revolutionary, though of course that would be great. It's not that you have to be the next Steve Jobs. But at least demonstrate to your superiors (or to whoever matters for your career advancement) that you aren't succumbing to inertia and that your focus is on the future of your field--not the past.
And if you don't care enough about your field to even want to innovate in it, you might want to reconsider what you're doing. Unless you're OK with mediocrity, which is really fine if that's all you really want. (Not being sarcastic here, I know not everyone has career as their #1 priority and believe me I can understand that.) But if professional/career success is your priority, this is what I'm being told is essential in these times.
Honestly, it is old school and has a title that makes it sound shallow and superficial but Think and Grow Rich is one of the best books I've read. It does not talk about specific business strategies (or secret recipes for success) but instead goes into details on the lives of some of the early business leaders of the US.

Here's my top /insert quantity here/. I read these all regularly (most once a year, some of the smaller ones, once a quarter), and listen to them during my commute more than is perhaps strictly healthy (might as well make good use of the time.)
That ought to do it. It's really all there. Plus, if you start searching around through that kind of stuff, you'll undoubtedly find more that you're drawn to for one reason or another.
There are a couple well known names that are intentionally absent. Tony Robbins, for one. Tony is keen to blow sunshine up your ass so that you buy his next book, bigger program, seminar, etc. If that's the kind of thing you need, read The Giant Within. I can't stand his stuff. I find it patronizing and egomaniacal.
AMA. I've read hundreds of these things.

That way of thinking has been shown to be a fallacy.
I highly recommend this book.
My recommendation might not mean a lot to you, but trust me, I’ve heard it HIGHLY recommended by some VERY wealthy and successful people. Many of whom were not born with the resources to get where they are now.
I know I wrote this before, but I want to drive this point in: Read the book The Richest Man in Babylon. The take away from this book is how to have a broader mind on stressful financial situations and techniques on very common problems.
But on the stressful worries of absolution, you should read both Rich Dad, Poor Dad and Think and Grow Rich. These go more into the emotional intelligence of financial woes as well as some techniques on dealing. Be careful of book 3 though. It's very strong and has dark advice also.
You've contrived an absolutist situation that for some reason you believe to be true. I can't convince you out of this, even though the truth of the matter is that there are situations that have leeway. Rent is one of them. The 2nd and 3rd books go into detail about this.
I feel that you've mentally trapped yourself in a set of "what ifs." These are self worries that disable us. The 1st book explains this well. The 2nd just drives is why, and the 3rd is more what you should do while doing that.
Simply put, you're creating rules to restrict yourself. I get everyone wants to have a high standard on stuff, but those ideals of fronting detract from actual progress.
Depends on how old you are.
The Shadow Of The Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon and The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Nighttime by Mark Haddon. You're welcome... about Shadow.. It's mystery someones burning copies of a book and the kid in the bookstore tries to figure out who's behind it. It's soooo goooood. For the other request maybe Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill and Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki
