Part of the New Thought Movement, As a Man Thinketh reveals the secrets to having the most fulfilling existence possible, and it's easier than any of us could have imagined.
As a Man Thinketh is James Allen's third book, first published in 1903. The title for the essay comes from the Bible, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he" (Proverbs, 23:7), where inside, Allen details how man is the creator and shaper of his destiny by the thoughts which he thinks. The environment is the result of what man has thought and done in the past, and his circumstances in the future are being shaped and built by his present desires, aspirations, thoughts and actions. He therefore who chooses and pursues a particular line of thought, consciously builds his own destiny. In more than a century, As A Man Thinketh has become an inspirational classic, selling millions of copies worldwide and bringing faith, inspiration, and self healing to all who have encountered it.
