Publisher's summary

This audiobook version of As A Man Thinketh is true to the original. Every word written by James Allen is spoken with clarity and authority by the narrator, making it easy to remember the information and absorb the timeless wisdom.

This short audiobook, originally published in 1902, has had a huge impact in the field of personal development. It is regarded as one of the most important books of the new thought era. It's written in such a way that makes it easy to understand the most powerful message you could ever learn.

The introduction of the audiobook summarizes the idea beautifully:

Mind is the Master-power that moulds and makes,

And Man is Mind, and evermore he takes

The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills,

Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills:

He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass:

Environment is but his looking-glass.

Absolutely Loved this book!

If you could sum up As a Man Thinketh in three words, what would they be?

This one is short, sweet, timeless, and powerful...Its on the vein of Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, but concentrates more on the fact that what think we will be and do. Powerful stuff! I def recommend it.

What other book might you compare As a Man Thinketh to and why?

think and grow rich by napoleon hill

Have you listened to any of Brian Holsopple’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

nope but I loved it

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

its only 56 minutes so pretty easy to incoporate into a workout or a commute

Easy Listen

This book is a fantastic listening experience, becuase its quick and to the point, yet its chalked full of wisdom.

I have listened to this book atleast 4X's now ( I listen to at it 2X's speed) and I listen to it on my commute to work. It keeps my head in good space, so i can live like the premise of this book tries to explain throughout the book. The state of mind directs the state of life.

Short and profound

As simple as the title and as short as this book is, it has a nice depth of expression and wisdom. It can be read several times and the benefits will continue.
