    About this audiobook

    James Allen's most famous work, "As a Man Thinketh," was originally published in 1902. It is now considered a classic self-help book. Its underlying premise is that noble thoughts make a noble person, while lowly thoughts make a miserable person. Allen's books illustrate the use of the power of thought to increase personal capabilities. Although he never achieved great fame or wealth, his works continue to influence people around the world, including the New Thought movement.

    "As a Man Thinketh" is a classic, inspirational work published in the early 20th century. Despite its age, its timeless wisdom is still oft quoted.

    James Allen

    Born in 1864 in England, James Allen took his first job at fifteen to support his family. Allen worked as a factory knitter and later a private secretary before writing his first book, From Poverty to Power, in 1901. In 1903 he completed his best-known work: As a Man Thinketh. Allen wrote nineteen books, including his spiritual journal, The Light of Reason, before he died at age forty-seven in 1912. While not widely known during his lifetime, Allen later came to be seen as a pioneer of contemporary inspirational literature.

      Good book, good concept, hard to listen to audio. Lots of opinions of the author although I fell her is spot on, didn't seem to make powerful cases for his beliefs.

      What the hell are impure thoughts? Because apparently when we rid ourselves of these, all will be well. Oh, and sick people wouldn't be sick if they weren't afraid of sickness. Garbage.
