Summary: As a Man Thinketh
Comment: Many people consider James Allen as the founder of the personal development industry and many teachers credit this book for providing the foundation to their teachings. This small, yet impactful book was of significant influence to me as I began my path of self-cultivation. I quote from As a Man Thinketh a number of times in my workshops and in my book and audio book, Managing Thought: How Do Your Thoughts Rule Your World? I am so thankful for James Allen who, through this timeless work, has helped so many people to understand and take responsibility for their thoughts.

Summary: You are what you think
Comment: This book is basically "The Secret" except written about 100 years beforehand (and a whole lot shorter!). Every sentence packs a punch. There are no frivolous words wasted in this short book. All the great modern motivational speakers have taken the advice from this book and simply reworded it. Just goes to show you that the same advice has been floating around for ages. It's up to you to do something about it!

The main message reverberated throughout the book:

"You and your circumstances are a product of your thoughts."

Summary: James Allen (1864-1912) knew what present day man/women is just starting to understanding
Comment: James Allen was one of our great thinkers. He understood what everyone is now calling "The Law of Attraction."
I can't say that he was ahead of his time, but that he gave time to understand, what has always been true, which is "The Way of The World," the way things develop from a thought to an actuality.
How he came up with his understanding of the world is unknown, but I suspect it was a higher power.
If you are interested in the grass roots of any of the books that have been written lately about obtaining the things that you want in your life, The Secret, by Rhonda Byrne, The Teaching's of Abraham by Jerry and Esters Hicks or The Secret Daydream (A guide to Your Child's future) and The Secret Daydream for College Students (The Guide to Surviving Conflict) by Charisse Rudolph, You will love the thinking that you will do when you read "As a Man Thinketh" by James Allen.
