L'aforisma "Come un uomo pensa nel suo cuore, così egli è" non solo abbraccia l'interezza dell'essere di un uomo, ma è così completo da arrivare a toccare ogni condizione e ogni circostanza della sua vita. Un uomo è letteralmente ciò che pensa, poiché il suo carattere è la somma totale di tutti i suoi pensieri. Come la pianta sbuca dal seme, e non potrebbe esistere senza di esso, così ogni azione di un uomo sbuca dai semi nascosti del pensiero, e non potrebbe essersi manifestata senza di essi.

"Ho sognato di scrivere un libro per aiutare gli uomini e le donne, sia ricchi che poveri, istruiti o ignoranti, mondani o ingenui, a trovare dentro di sé la fonte del successo infinito, della felicità infinita, di tutti i talenti e di tutte le verità. E questo sogno è rimasto con me, e alla fine è diventato significativo; e ora lo invio al mondo, a compiere la sua missione di guarigione e beatitudine, sapendo con certezza che raggiungerà le case e i cuori di coloro che stanno aspettando e sono pronti a riceverlo." (James Allen)

A pioneer of the self-help movement, author James Allen’s most famous title is As a Man Thinketh. This book offers the keys to personal responsibility and freedom. When you understand that what you think influences what you become, you can learn to adjust your thought life accordingly. In Allen’s classic work, he explores the fascinating connection between mind, body, and action. Using the metaphor of a garden, Allen teaches the listener how to weed out the negativity and plant useful, positive thoughts in the mind instead.

Este libro (resultado de la meditación y la experiencia) no intenta ser un tratado exhaustivo acerca del poder del pensamiento, de lo que ya mucho se ha escrito.

In his works, James Allen sought to develop a generic spirituality by drawing on and matching the precepts of a variety of religious teachers. In this short treatise he examines the words of Jesus as a guide to spiritual advancement.

In the foreword the author says: "When the light of wisdom is introduced into the darkened understanding, confusion vanishes, difficulties are dissolved, all things are seen in their true place and proportion, and henceforth the man walks open-eyed and unhurt, in the clear light of wise comprehension."

It is popularly supposed that a greater prosperity for individuals or nations can only come through a political and social reconstruction. This cannot be true apart from the practice of the moral virtues in the individuals that comprise a nation. Better laws and social conditions will always follow a higher realization of morality among the individuals of a community, but no legal enactment can give prosperity to, nay it cannot prevent the ruin of, a man or a nation that has become lax and decadent in the pursuit and practice of virtue.

This collection of aphorisms and reflections for each day of a 31-day month was first published in 1909, and later reissued in 1913, after the author's death, with a preface by his wife Lily Allen.

Ihr Denken formt Ihr Leben – nicht umgekehrt. Was wäre, wenn jeder Ihrer Gedanken still und unaufhaltsam an Ihrem Morgen arbeitet? James Allens „Wie der Mensch denkt, so lebt er“ ist weit mehr als ein Klassiker der Selbstentwicklung. Es ist eine leise, aber kraftvolle Erinnerung daran, dass wahre Veränderung im Inneren beginnt – nicht im Außen. Diese neu übersetzte und sorgfältig eingesprochene Hörbuchfassung lädt Sie dazu ein, einen Schritt zurückzutreten – aus dem Lärm des Alltags – und bewusst hinzusehen: auf Ihre Denkmuster, Ihre inneren Überzeugungen, Ihre Haltung zum Leben.

This was the third book by New Thought philosopher James Allen and was published in 1903. It consists of two volumes, each of which was later published separately: Entering the Kingdom and The Heavenly Life. Although he recommended the search for spiritual principles, James Allen was no supporter of organized religion. In fact, he disparages the search for both earthly pleasures and heavenly rewards. In his view the Kingdom of Heaven is in the here and now, and can only be reached by adopting the right mode of living.

In this short treatise New Thought author James Allen explores one of his favourite principles: that the outward expression of a person is governed by his inner disposition. In the first chapter he writes: "As is the heart, so is the life. The within is ceaselessly becoming the without. Nothing remains unrevealed. That which is hidden is but for a time; it ripens and comes forth at last."

The Way of Peace was written by James Allen, who was most famous for As a Man Thinketh.

The Way of Peace contains many of the same ideas, but the focus is more on meditation, selfless love, and spiritual power.

From Poverty to Power shows how one may rise above adversity and poverty by taking the paths of material prosperity and truth to ultimately reach the goal of spiritual peace. Enduring success in any field is shown to be the result of inner adjustment and growth.

Though many of us might answer "yes" to that question, attracting more joy into our lives is not always easy - life and stress can seem to hinder our well-being, despite our best efforts. What’s worse, studies have shown that pressuring yourself to feel happy and upbeat when you feel down can actually take a toll on us psychologically! So, where do you begin? The solution lies in understanding the innate psychological forces that conspire against us.

As a Man Thinketh is an inspirational book by James Allen, first published in 1903. It deals with the power of thought, and particularly with the use and application of thought to create happy and prosperous circumstances. The writing is simple, so that all can easily grasp the teachings and put the methods into practice. In the earlier work, From Poverty to Power: The Realization of Prosperity and Peace, (1901) Allen emphasizes that a disciplined mind and a focus on serving others are the keys to achieving prosperity.
