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.

Principles to live by
A good listen.
Short. Full of principles to live by.
Have already listened twice, and on second listen got even more.
I suspect that the more I listen, the more I will hear.
Highly recommend this book.

Great timeless book and very good narration
What made the experience of listening to As a Man Thinketh the most enjoyable?
I like the narration. I listened to several excerpts and this is one of the best narrations for this book.
What other book might you compare As a Man Thinketh to, and why?
This book is about changing your character and have it reflect in your external circumstances. I find it more practical than some of the other 'law of attraction' books so I'll even compare it to a very practical self-help book like On Form by James E. Loehr and Tony Schwartz.
What does Brian Holsopple bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
I liked the commanding voice of the narrator compared to many other audio books I've listened to.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes

Basic yet fundamental
Given this book was written in 1907, it has survived the test of time with a handful of other personal development books.
I'm an atheist and books with a religious lean lose my attention very quickly. This book reflects the attitudes of the time so it has a religious tilt in the language used, however I did not feel that I was listening to a sermon.
The basic message is keep your mind good and pure and serenity will follow. It does not define any of these so it can be interpreted using your own moral compass and therefore used by most. The only people who are unlikely to benefit from listening to this book are those with a moral compass that justifies things that you know deep down are wrong.

school curriculum
Why this book isn't part of the education system here I don't know! Such simple logic that everyone should know before the age of ten. the world would only benefit in all ways.

Positive thoughts & self determination
excellent book which i found extremely relevant despite being written about 100 yrs ago. I found it an excellent accompaniment to Full Catastrophe Living by Jon Kabat-Zinn

Makes you think about what you think
I enjoyed this audible as its not too long and it really is to the point , it is direct in its old fashioned narrative which gives it a real old age authentic feel as it was written many many years ago. It's not preachy as some older texts can be yet does really put it in plain yet bygone old English the importance of how our very thoughts do have a lasting power in the creation of our lives .. Really good and as its not too long it is a nice comfortable listen which seems to always deliver the message read after read ... The very premise of the book being how our thoughts control or very lives brings you to a kind of mental pause allowing you to take stock of things which in itself is always a good thing as life is many times on turbo and we don't always pay attention to what we think and often end up with results which we are not always happy with , crap circumstances are often a result of poor habits which are born of improper thinking , which kinda stands to reason why the very act of taking more care in what we allow to dominate our thoughts will greatly dictate what we see turn up in our lives .. Have a listen then stop and have a mental check of what thoughts dominate your life ..🙂

the source for our recent gurus
To most of us used to the teachings of the recent greats, this may seem a little old fashioned in its language... however, here is the source for many of the recent and current proponents of the self-development movement.
much of what's said here will already be familiar but it's nice to be able to hear the original ideas and as always, you can still relate the information to your situation.
For this price, crazy not to spend an hour reinforcing your self beliefs and understandings!
