There comes a time when you've done so much personal work that you're open to receive something that connects with you. As a man thinketh is that instructional guide which does just that for me.

Before I began reading this book again I said to myself, "this book is reminding you how powerful you are and it's showing you what you know to be true for you." As you read each page, notice how the same message is being conveyed but in varying ways.

The proper use of your mind is your Source of Power. Not money, not relationships, not what is seen or had in the world. Your mind is the maker and the cultivator of these experiences. It's the orchestrator of good and bad. Tend to the mind for the physical expression of your desires. See it in mind if you desire to see it in the physical world.

As a Man Thinketh is a meaningful book!

Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2016

This book is encouraging as it explains how a person's mind affects the body. There are just seven chapters so this book is a fairly quick read.

My favorite chapters were:

1 Effect of Thought of Circumstances
2 Effect of Thought on Health and Body (so enlightened)
3 Thought and Purpose

What I like is this book focuses on the subconscious mind, really how the mind affects the body. This has been a very helpful read.

The reason that I rated this 4 stars is because I would like to have seen more information.
One more thing, this is a public domain book that was adapted for Kindle. This is great because I like to keep it on my tablet.

This book was truly life changing! Our outer lives are but the reflection of our inner self. If we want to change our external circumstances then we must change our inner self first.

A Life Changing Book

Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2013

I got this book for free this morning on Kindle and could not put it down. I have just finished it and am very glad that I decided to download it, since it is one of the most helpful and powerful books I have read all year. Although originally written in 1902 (hence the use of the term 'man' throughout to mean both women and men), the content still holds true today. The basis of the book is that the thoughts we have, and how we manage and control these, impacts upon the quality of our lives as well as how we develop throughout our lives. However, in order to effect change, we need to observe ourselves to identify which thoughts are having a negative impact on our lives, since most of us are not aware of these. If, like a couple of reviewers here, you get wound up by details like typos and minor errors in word order, there are a few instances of this that will distract you and affect what you get from the content. If, however, you are more forgiving, given that the e book was produced for free by volunteers, you will stand to gain a great deal by taking its ideas to heart and acting on these. Quotes from the text that resonated with me include "Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves, they therefore remain bound.”, “As the physically weak man can make himself strong by careful and patient training, so the man of weak thoughts, can make them strong by exercising himself in right thinking.” and “You cannot travel within and stand without.” This is definitely a life changing book if you are willing to act upon the ideas. Highly recommended.

5 stars for a classic that can help anyone learn to think well. I also recommend the audio version on the go, or in the morning when all you have time to do is push play. A great way to reset and focus on the right things in life.

Read this book at least once a year ~ It has the power to change your life

Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2014

This is a timeless book about how our thoughts make us who we are. Henry Ford once said, "If you think you can," you're right and "If you think you can't you're right." That's the basic premise of this book. It's our thoughts that make us who we are.

While there are so many books available on positive thinking, the majority of them make the subject more complicated than it needs to be. James Allen has managed to provide all that one needs to know about the power of positive thinking, but does so in a book that can be read in less than an hour.

The difference between this book and others, is that the brevity of this ones enables you to read it over and over again. Personally, I read it a few times a year and have found it to be the most useful book I've encountered on the subject of our thoughts and how important they are. We can choose to be happy or we can choose to be sad. If you read and follow the simple advice in this book, you'll be the former. Although written long ago and containing some archaic language, the message put forth throughout the book is loud and clear. Our thoughts are what we are. You could not find a better book on the subject.

Too Much Old Information to Wade Through

Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2015

Verified Purchase

As A Man Thinketh by James Allen is not the type of book I had hoped it would be. Look Inside the Book provided a glimpse of possible information I sought. However, I found the information old, perhaps written for the mentality and understanding of people living eons ago.

Reading my way through the ancient attitudes, I was able to translate or equate some of the advice and experience to today’s models. Some gems of advice and information are available but the reader must wade through so much to find them. The language is old and slows the read-through.

If you are a fan of old “original” thinking, then this book might interest you. I found it too difficult to quickly interpret words, phrases and meanings into today’s thinking. Simpler ways to say things exist today.

This book was originally published in 1903. However, the main message of the book is still very true in 2019. Easy concepts, but very difficult to apply in everyday life. I will read this book many times. The author was able to write powerful words in a very concise book.

If applied you will not remain the same. Mastering an equable demeanor sourced by healthy thoughts are one of the most challenging things to accomplish in a lifetime. This book has helped me to envision something which seemed unattainable. A mind completely stable, goal driven and impactful is the dream and surely it will be achieved
