👌this book emphasis the importance of thoughts which is very crucial for human being because every thought we think have power. this is an outstanding book for understanding the value of thoughts and the importance of positive thinking

Excellent

I really enjoyed the examples, correlation, and how the author easily described the cause and effect of our thoughts. It's a nice short read or in my case, an hour walk enjoying the sun. ☀

First published in 1903, this self-help book pretty much says that the way we think shapes our destiny...
Yes, positive thinking can be useful, but I don't agree with James Allen's extreme view on the subject.
I honestly didn't enjoy this read. Truth be told I hate self-help books... Then it's quite a repetitive book, luckily a short one. To sum it up, it's not my cup of tea.

It's reading and relaxing time!
Au menu: tea, delicious chocolates, and of course some food for thoughts ;)

“As a man thinketh in his heart so is he”

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things. Philippians 4:8

Rinse and repeat baby

A classic first published in 1902, this 45 page book is jam-packed with thoughts on the nature of man. With gems such as: “Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals; cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful conditions...”. This book is not to be read but to be absorbed into your very consciousness.

Short, meaningful read. Lots of great takeaways.

Interesting, short book on determinism philosophy.

"A person is limited only by the thoughts that he chooses."

Every man is where he is by the law of his being; the thoughts which he has built into his character have bought him there, and in the arrangement of his life there is no element of chance , but all is the result of a law which cannot err.

Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bad fruits. #asamanthinketh #jamesallen #keepsakeedition

A man only begins to be a man when he ceases to whine and revile, and commences to search for the hidden justice which regulates his life.

The outer conditions of a person's life will always be found to be harmoniously related to his inner state...Men do not attract that which they want, but that which they are.
