As a Man Thinketh

I found this audio book to be very enlightening in that it reconfirmed the notion that success or failure is primarily one's own doing. I also found the orator to be on the lullaby mode.

The values and principles which, if nurtured and embodied diligently, promise to reward one with success, happiness, abundance and health. It is June 2020. With all that is happening now, the text seems naïve, quaint, simplistic. This is not to say it's antiquated pedantry. If one wants a guide on how to live in integrity, this template is indispensable. If one can
Outstanding!

I am not an academic or theologian, however this book reads like the distilled wisdom of all life itself, it's not an attempt to explain causality of truth but rather a reminder that we are all subject to it regardless of individual belief. The reading is clear and concise and perfect for the tone of the book.

As a Man Thinketh is a must for people who are looking for way to answer the nagging question "what can I do to control my destiny" or "how can I take charge of my own life by altering my thoughts " great read and beautifully read by the narrator/reader in this audio file

The reader did an exceptional job reading the book. The voice was soothing to the ear and transcribed the book accurately. The book itself was really insightful, and I enjoyed reading it multiple times. Would definitely recommend it and would look forward to my next read by the same author.
