The garden of our mind is cultivated intelligently by ourselves, or allowed to become polluted with the waste of the world. What kind of crop we want to consistently yield is determined by whether we focus on fostering positive, enriching, and encouraging thoughts— or allow ourselves to be ruled by our doubting, destructive and negative ones. We can either have a feast or a famine - it is up to us alone. This is the message of James Allen’s classic success booklet entitled “As a Man Thinketh.”
Literally a blueprint on how to live and how to think, specifically for those who wish their thoughts to bring them closer to the future desires they seek sooner rather than later, this little gem of a book serves as a course of action for approaching life for success. It’s recommended for salespeople, executives, entrepreneurs, really anybody who wants to get more of a feeling that they are themselves the architect of their life.
In this one of my favorite books, James Allen shows us what we already intuitively know: how changing ones' mind-set can improve one's circumstances -- no matter how difficult-- and in doing so provides us with a powerful philosophy that can and will help you transform your thoughts into concrete actions that will result in the achievement of anything that you deeply desire in your heart.
I realize that sounds rather “new age”, doesn’t it? Kind of touchy-feely-you-can-do-it stuff.
How many times do we need to hear or see truth to feel the reality of it? How many times can someone whisper in our ear or shout from the rooftops before we listen?
Listen, I don’t know much about you more than that you’re here reading my words to you. But I do know this little book has BIG power. In fact, I believe so much in this book that if you visit any of my websites and contact us requesting it, myself or someone on my staff will be happy to respond with a free gift of this amazingly powerful book.
Among the important principles you will learn when you read this success classic:
1. Harnessing the effect of thought on circumstances.
2. Channeling the effect of thought on health and body.
3. Realizing how our thoughts define and create our purpose in life.
Many would not hesitate to say that this is one of the most deeply meaningful. and influential works that has ever been produced. It has certainly been so for me. When I look at my life of today and compare it to the life I lived just a few short yesterdays ago, one of the key elements that has taken me through to the other side of success has been a mindset established along the principle that whatever I think about, I can bring about. As James Allen himself said: “As a man thinketh, so is he...”
