Synopsis

James Allens classic AS A MAN THINKETH. The Bestselling Classic That Inspired "The Secret". AS A MAN THINKETH, Allen's most famous book, today is considered a classic self-help book. Its underlying premise is that noble thoughts make a noble person, while lowly thoughts make a miserable person. In "As a Man Thinketh," James Allen reveals how our thoughts determine reality. Whether or not we are conscious of it, our underlying beliefs shape our character, our health and appearance, our circumstances, and our destinies. Allen shows how we can master our thoughts to create the life we want, lest we drift through life unconscious of the inner forces that keep us mired in failure and frustration. "The Vision that you glorify in your mind, the Ideal that you enthrone in your heart-this you will build your life by, this you will become." This principle, which others have called THE SECRET or the LAW OF ATTRACTION, was clearly and convincingly stated for the first time in "As a Man Thinketh." As a being of Power, Intelligence, and Love, and the lord of his own thoughts, man holds the key to every situation, and contains within himself that transforming and regenerative agency by which he may make himself what he wills.

"As a man thinketh", Allen insists that it is within the power of each person to form his own character and create his own happiness. As Allen states, "a man is literally what he thinks", or as the saying goes, garbage in, garbage out! Or put another way, "All that a man achieves and all that he fail......more

Was asked by a mentor to read this book 20 years ago. Finally did one reading iteration of the book. The gist of it is our mind is the gate to which our thoughts will be formulated if we guard our mind and feed it what is right, then right thoughts would blossom from the thoughts actions will come f......more

This book had some great anecdotes on how one’s thinking can influence your life in a myriad of ways. Whether it be peace, knowledge, or certain goals you seek, the narrative of how and what you think determine how your thoughts alone can dictate your perception of life experiences. My only downside......more
