Reading up

I've been thinking about doing my Masters and sometimes I forget that one needs to be constantly doing something about it until everything is final.
Every time I remember to do something about it I end up buying books so that I can read up or so that I feel like I'm doing something towards it. These are the books that I have so far and I'm not even sure if they will help with my thesis but before the thesis has to come the proposal which I'm dreading. All I know is that there has to be beads in there some how.
