As a Man Thinketh by James Allen

4.0

Written over a hundred years ago in 1902 we gain a perspective of this time period in regards to the circumstances of men. In Allen’s line of thinking we see he is an ardent believer in the power of thought.

“As A Man Thinketh” is an approximative self-help book for men of the 1900’s in search of pathways to betterment. Some aspects Allen believes men can become better through positive thought are circumstance, health, and attaining goals. Over the span of seven short chapters a man can gain some philosophical sense about their life and how to progress to a more “Godlike character.”

A myriad of self-help authors themselves refer to this book as most inspirational for their field of work. If it’s good enough for them I’d say it’s a good enough read for any man starting on the path to manhood.
