I spent the day recording my own version of "As a Man Thinketh" by James Allen, adding commentary throughout. It'll be part of what Monetize Your Gifts members receive when they join. I read this book as a teenager and then rediscovered it as an adult. It's had a profound impact on my life.
Here are a few of my favorite quotes from it:
"As a progressive and evolving being, man is where he is that he may learn that he may grow; and as he learns the spiritual lesson which any circumstance contains for him, it passes away and gives place to other circumstances."
"Men do not attract that which they want, but that which they are."
"Man has but to right himself to find that the universe is right. And during the process of putting himself right, he will find that as he alters his thoughts towards things and other people, things and other people will alter towards him."
"Be not impatient in delay,
But wait as one who understands;
When spirit rises and commands,
The gods are ready to obey."
"Not what he wishes and prays for does a man get, but what he justly earns."
"You will become as small as your controlling desire, as great as your dominant aspiration."
"Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil."
