About this eBook

This little volume (the result of meditation and experience) is not intended as an exhaustive treatise on the much written-upon subject of the power of thought. It is suggestive rather than explanatory, its object being to stimulate men and women to the discovery and perception of the truth that-- "They themselves are makers of themselves." By virtue of the thoughts, which they choose and encourage; that mind is the master-weaver, both of the inner garment of character and the outer garment of circumstance, and that, as they may have hitherto woven in ignorance and pain they may now weave in enlightenment and happiness.

Ratings and reviews

This uplifting literature is valuable to those reading with the goal to grow, and the openness to look outside their current knowledge/experiences/vantage points to strive for a better self.

Very insightful! Scholarly yet an easy read. This book, if earnestly applied and practiced can lead one into the mastery of self.

Enjoyed reading this. The length of the book is also great, because it didn't drag on for too long, as the topic is quite succinct. A lot to think about. It's also interesting to see a lot of Biblical principles here. Even the title of the book 'As A Man Thinks" is from Proverbs 23:7.
