A major secret of success

This may be a little weird and eclectic, but these are what I have just read, currently reading, about to read.
Currently I am pretty interested in New Zealand social history and local entreprenuers, so these fit that area:
Success in New Zealand Business, fifteen achievers share their secrets. Paul Smith

Waiting for the Revolution. James Edwards.

Related:
Pacific Rising, The Emergence of a new world culture. Simon Winchester. Interesting.

Marketing:
First things first. Stephen R Covey, A Roger Merrill. Takes major concentration, which I seem to be lacking at the moment.

Make your first million in network Marketing. Mary Christensen. Junk. May keep reading just in case, more likely to throw it out the window.

Teach Yourself Applied Psychology. Nicky Hayes. Very interesting.

For Fun:
Blood and Gold Anne Rice. I liked the earlier books better, but its still fun.

The Big Book of Cartooning Bruce Blitz. Hey I can draw???!! Great book for the graphically challenged.

Drawing Ian Sidaway. More ambitious. I'm not ready for this yet.
Technical:

The complete modern blacksmith, Alexander G. Weygers. Great if you like metal pounding. A fav. of my mine.

The Video Makers Handbook Roland Lewis. A bit simplistic, good section on interviews.

The Encyclopedia of Sewing Techniques by Jan Eaton. Hey, single dads can so sew.

Controlling the World with your PC. Paul Bergsman. Reference on another project. Good book, some suspect code examples.

The Antigravity Handbook. D. Hatcher Childress. What can I say? Wait till my antigravity boots hit the market.
