Why read it?

Although this book is more than a century old, I find it just as relevant today as it was when it was first published. As a Man Thinketh offers digestible and easily understood tips to transform the way you look at barriers in life and positively embrace them. Each person holds the key to their own happiness and by dealing with thoughts intelligently and patiently, can help reconstruct life for the better. 

The power of thought distilled in 37 pages, this book offers fundamental principles on how thoughts shape our inner and outer world. A reader emerges from the book with a renewed focus on manifesting calmness of mind and inspired to reinvent their self and their thinking. One of the quotes from the book, “Men do not attract that which they want, but that which they are.”

From Kamlesh's list on self-help and meditation.
