As a Man Thinketh & As A Man Does

James Allen's As a Man Thinketh reminds us that our thoughts control our actions and mold who we are as a person. Good and generous thoughts bring about good and generous actions. Thoughts of greed and covetousness show themselves in selfish and paranoid behavior. Feed your mind on healthful thoughts and happiness and success will follow. As a Man Does: Morning and Evening Thoughts presents insightful meditations that feed the mind and soul. In Sixty-two meditations, one for each morning and evening of the month, Allen offers truth and the blessing of comfort. James Allen was a British philosophical writer known for his inspirational books and poetry and as a pioneer of self-help movement. Allen's practical philosophy for successful living has awakened millions to the discovery that "they themselves are makers of themselves". Allen insists that it is within the power of each person to form his own character and create his own happiness.
