Can someone recommend a REALLY good self-help/improvement book?

I’m feeling a little down about life right now. I will graduate from college next month with a BA in criminology only to find out all agencies ( by agencies I mean FDLE, DCF, DOC etc,) in my state (Fla) are laying people off because of lack of funding. Teachers are getting laid off, its just horrible. yet the state seems to have enough money to advertise the different lottery games they want people to spend their last dollar playing (figures). It turns out i will have to continue to work at my part time low paying convenience store job until the agencies begin hiring again. Anyhow, I’m looking for a good self-help/improvement book with tips on how to deal with hard times in life, not worrying, etc. Thanks in advance.

I hear that Rhoda Byrne’s "The Secret" is really good. I bought it but haven’t had time to read it yet. Here are some other recommendations though:

Personally, I find some blogs also pretty informative. They include:
http://lifehacker.com (tech productivity, self-improvement, etc)
http://zenhabits.com (more self-improvement focused)
http://lifehack.org (as above)
http://dumblittleman.com
http://ririanproject.com

Good luck.
