From Poverty to Power
ByPublisher Description
James Allen's ‘From Poverty to Power’ (1901) stands as seminal text in the self-help genre that has served as sources of inspiration since their publication at the beginning of the twentieth century. Loosely based in its principles around the Biblical proverb “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he”. ‘As a Man Thinketh’ asserts the powerful idea that belief is central to bringing about positive events in one's life.
This is Allen's first book that relies on a similar philosophy but addresses themes of adversity and suffering more directly and offers his simple wisdom as a means of overcoming difficulty. Allen's writings are powerful and relevant today as they were over a century ago, and this collection brings their solace and inspiration to modern listeners.
Experience the life-changing power of James Allen with this unforgettable book.
"A Book for all those who are in search of better conditions, wider freedom, and increased usefulness."—James Allen
