We turn to them because they are masters of themselves. 'Tempest-tossed' souls battle to get success, but success avoids the unstable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePurity of mind leads inevitably to purity of life, to the precious love and understanding that should control our everyday acts and attitudes towards friends and foes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut where must one look for guidance? How does one achieve purity of mind that alone brings happiness and confidence?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author offers his clear answers in this book As A Man Thinketh. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis words have helped millions for more than a century--and continue to point the true way to a better life for a troubled humanity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Out of a clean heart comes a clean life and a clean body,\" James Allen writes. \"Out of a defiled mind proceeds a defiled life and a corrupt body.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eToo many mortals strive to improve only their wordly position. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eToo few seek spiritual betterment. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJAMES ALLEN (1864–1912) was a British writer known for his inspirational books and poetry and as a pioneer of the self-help movement.
