Looking for book recommendations: Motivational, philosophical, with historical/political insights?

Hello guys,

Unfortunately, I don't like reading as much as I should, but I find it necessary and useful, so I try to make myself do it. I succeed by primarily reading books that I feel help and develop me in everyday life. For this reason, I avoid entertaining literature and prefer motivational, self-development, and even philosophical books. Extra points if there is a historical or political aspect.

The last three books I read:

Atomic Habits / I really liked it.

Well-structured, the modern context makes it easy to understand, and the examples are easy to follow. I found many useful things in it.

Marcus Aurelius – Meditations / loved it.

A bit difficult to understand, more philosophy than useful ideas. It created a very special atmosphere, knowing I was reading the words of someone who lived so long ago, yet they are still relevant today.

Dale Carnegie – How to Stop Worrying and Start Living / didn't like it.

A bit preachy, and I felt the religious aspect was excessive. I don't know why, but I often found the examples to be highly fictitious.

Thank you very much for reading, and if you could recommend a book!
