    James Allen

    Born in 1864 in England, James Allen took his first job at fifteen to support his family. Allen worked as a factory knitter and later a private secretary before writing his first book, From Poverty to Power, in 1901. In 1903 he completed his best-known work: As a Man Thinketh. Allen wrote nineteen books, including his spiritual journal, The Light of Reason, before he died at age forty-seven in 1912. While not widely known during his lifetime, Allen later came to be seen as a pioneer of contemporary inspirational literature.

      This is one of the most simple, yet powerful explanations of the Law of Attraction and how it works in our life. It also simplifies the “why” it works, helping to clarify that most of the thoughts we have are autonomous and we are unaware, unless we take the time and work needed to become aware. Very good, short read.
