Reminiscent of a philosophical text, As a Man Thinketh by James Allen is a short-read highlighting how the mind is YOU and you have the power to influence and create your own reality, character, health, purpose, and peace.
“Tempest-tossed souls, where ye may be, under whatsoever conditions ye may live, know this: in the ocean of life the isles of Blessedness are smiling, and the sunny shore of your ideal awaits your coming. Keep your hand firmly upon the helm of thought. In the bark of your soul reclines the commanding Master; He does but sleep: wake Him. Self-control is strength; Right Thought is mastery; Calmness is power. Say unto your heart, “Peace, be still!”.” – James Allen.
