The Path of Prosperity
I looked around upon the world, and saw that it was shadowed by sorrow and scorched by the fierce fires of suffering. And I looked for the cause. I looked around, but could not find it; I looked in books, but could not find it; I looked within, and found there both the cause and the self-made nature of that cause. I looked again, and deeper, and found the remedy. I found one Law, the Law of Love; one Life, the Life of adjustment to that Law; one Truth, the truth of a conquered mind and a quiet and obedient heart. And I dreamed of writing a book which should help men and women, whether rich or poor, learned or unlearned, worldly or unworldly, to find within themselves the source of all success, all happiness, all accomplishment, all truth. And the dream remained with me, and at last became substantial; and now I send it forth into the world on its mission of healing and blessedness, knowing that it cannot fail to reach the homes and hearts of those who are waiting and ready to receive it. James Allen.

Allen was 15 when his father, a businessman, was robbed and murdered. He left school to work full-time in several British manufacturing firms to help support the family. He later married Lily L. Allen and became an executive secretary for a large company. At age 38, inspired by the writings of Leo Tolstoy, he retired from employment. Allen — along with his wife and their daughter, Nohra — moved to a small cottage in Ilfracombe, Devon, England to pursue a simple life of contemplation. There he wrote for nine years, producing 19 works. He also edited and published a magazine, "The Light of Reason".
Allen's books illustrate the use of the power of thought to increase personal capabilities. Although he never achieved great fame or wealth, his works continue to influence people around the world, including the New Thought movement.
Allen's most famous book, As a Man Thinketh, was published in 1902. It is now considered a classic self-help book. Its underlying premise is that noble thoughts make a noble person, while lowly thoughts make a miserable person.
Following his death in 1912, his wife continued publishing the magazine under the name, "The Epoch".

July 16, 2015Aristotle said "The hardest victory is the victory over self," but it is a victory that enables you to win in all aspects of life. In The Path to Prosperity, James Allen underscores this concept, noting that a disciplined mind and a focus on serving others are basic to the achievement of any prosperity. Thus, prosperity is always personal, resting squarely on the degree to which you have refined and bettered yourself. In a nutshell, you'll only become truly prosperous when you have disciplined your mind. paradoxically, wealth (and happiness) comes most easily to those who forget themselves in the service to others.
Quotes:
"Rectify your heart, and you will rectify your life. Lust hatred, anger, vanity, pride, covetousness, self-indulgence, self-seeking, obstinacy - all these are poverty and weakness; whereas love, purity, gentleness, meekness, compassion, generosity, self-forgetfulness, and self-renunciation - all these are wealth and power."
"Whatever your position in life may be, before you can hope to enter into any measure of success, usefulness, and power, you must learn how to focus your thought-forces by cultivating calmness and repose."
"You say you are chained by circumstances; you cry out for better opportunities, for a wider scope, for improved physical conditions, and perhaps you inwardly curse the fate that binds you hand and foot. It is for you that I write; it is to you that I speak... I know this pathway looks barren at its commencement... but if you undertake to walk it... you will be astonished at the magical changes which will be brought about in your outward life."

Once I read "As a Man Thinketh," I went out and searched for every James Allen book that I could find! All of his books are so powerful in meaning, and will help everyone who reads them gain wisdom.

One of my all time favourite nonfiction authors now, any James Allen book does leave me quite impressed.
I have read and loved As a Man Thinketh by the author, a book which I keep rereading every-time I need comfort and peace.
This book too has brought me so much wisdom and gives perfect explanations and examples of what actual evil means, the happiness we are all striving for; our goals; good health and prosperity.
This short book has so much more to offer and you will only know this when you pick up this book and read it.
I read this book cover to cover during which I gained more knowledge about the author which was more I could gain from the actual content.
The writing is beautiful. The language fit for all kinds of readers and for all ages.
A must read book even for the non-nonfiction readers.
It’s a short book leaning more towards psychology rather than being a self help read.
Highly recommended 🌟

I had the 1907 edition when I started this book. My Dad had read it and he had passed it on to one of his co-workers to read it and they both said it was quite life changing.
I have to agree. I do think that this book is life changing, but I also did have my issues with it.
This is in no way a horrible book. When I first started it I thought it was very well written and was ready to jump on board.
A lot of the subjects caught my eye, such as how your internal state affects your outward state, such as how your room looks or of how everything appears.
But after a while, I started to lose interest.
While the writing was quite complex and some of the sayings went over my head, the writing started to get repetitive.
I felt as if James Allen was repeating himself a lot, and it got to the point where I felt that the read itself was a chore.
The repetition though, I also pointed out, engrained it into your memory but still, it got kind of annoying.
I also took a break that lasted a few days due to some life circumstances and once I came back, I just wanted to be done with it. Not a horrible book as I said, but not a perfect one either.
As you read this book, you don’t even know you’re changing, but the further you get, the more you realize you are starting to place these philosophies into your daily life and trying to work on mastering them which I thought was interesting but otherwise, I think this book taught me something.
My energy is my choice.

I don't know how it all started, I think it was when I was seven in my grandpa's library (or as my grandma calls it, the dungeon), but somehow, some day, I got addicted to the self help genre, and being that Allen is a pioneer of these feel moochie and warm inside "As a Man Thinketh" types books, I liked it. In it he goes from prose to poetry trying to explain his spiritual philosophy, which lays in the psychological realms. Great inspirational read for one of those days.

After reading this book I realize where New Age gurus get their material from, as I am sure James Allen did from someone else, like Plato. This book might seem outdated, but if you let it, your inner guidance and intuition will clarify it to you.

I must say this book was mind blowing
January 14, 2022
Some deep thoughts and some great metaphors. There is a poetic way that he conveys his message which makes for some extremely quotable lines. I'm not one for poems yet I liked some in here which ended each chapter.
The crux of it is to achieve prosperity and happiness one has to conquer own desires and attain self mastery. To have unbounded happiness dont be selfish, be giving instead. Have the good pure qualities and free self from those that would condone.
He communicates his thoughts in fashion I would never have thought of which made for a unique read for me personally. I flagged slightly in between but was largely quite good. A decent read.

Today while reading the book "The Path to Prosperity" by James Allen, I felt that Allen was whispering close to my ears, "I wrote this book for you."
This is why I love books. This is why I chose to be a writer. The people who never walked next to each other can also spook in each other's minds thanks to the written words!

It's the kind of book I would recommend to every friend of mine for the wisdom it has to offer is priceless and worth musing over. I am eager to read more works of James Allen!
August 1, 2013
I wish everyone would read this and quit complaining about their self-created circumstances. Then perhaps they'd figure out how to free themselves from the bondage of their own thoughts.
June 15, 2019
The author has an uncanny ability to point out the obvious. If it were possible for the average person to execute his obvious suggestions, we would all be happy, healthy, wealthy and wise!

ماکس اشتیرنر یه اصطلاحی داره، که به "انگارههای ثابت" میگه "لولو"، یا "شبحزده"، یعنی چیزایی مثل باور به قوانین الهی، کارما، نظم، و همچنین خیلی قراردادهای ذهنی دیگه مثل قوانین، دوستی و....
همه این توضیحات رو دادم که بگم این کتاب به شدتتتت شبحزده بود! به شکل کامل Spooky!
نویسنده کتاب میگه که ما خودمون باعث و بانی همه بدبختیها و فلاکتهامون هستیم، گرفتار شدنمون در بلایا و مصیبتها حاصل نادانی و خودخواهیمونه، و باید خودمون رو فدای دیگران کنیم :/// به شدت لولو! 🤧
انگارههای ثابتی نظیر فداکاری، پاکی و درستکاری رو بیان میکنه و میگه که خوشبختی نصیب افرادی میشن که روحشون اینطوریه، یعنی شدیدا به انگارههای ثابتِ ذهنش تاکید داره! همچنین قوانین مندرآوری مثل قانون الهی و قانون واکنش و.... رو بیان میکنه.
.
یهجورایی انگار برخی اشعار مولانا و حرفای عارفهای دیگه رو در قالب کتابِ معمولی میخونی، "هرچیز که در جستن آنی آنی!" دقیقا همین رو میگه -_-
کتاب انگار یه متنِ کاملا مذهبیه، همچنین از رو متن ردپاهایی از باور به خدایی اسپینوزایی دیده میشه.
در آخر اینکه قانون علیت هم به خاک و خون کشیده و خیلی بد اشتباه شرحش داده و فقط برا پر و بال دادن به ایدههاش ازش استفاده کردا ×(

Another exceptional body of work by a great thinker. The amount of wisdom this man shared is priceless. In each of James Allens books, including this one, he answers some of lifes most difficult questions and provides practical solutions to approaching a big chunk of life's hurdles. I recommend this book to anyone old or young who's stuck in a pit of despair or suffering. This book will teach you how to get out that hole and seal the entrance on your way out.

If you've read As a Man Thinketh, then you can probably skip this one. Standard James Allen fare, although not bad, may be too religiously based for some. It addresses-but ultimately fails to address the age old question, Why do bad things happen to good people, and vice-versa. It'll fix itself down the road, or something to that effect. Then again, what can you say?
November 11, 2012
Allen was very heavily influenced by popular philosophies of his day that for me as a moderate realist simply do not hold up. None the less, I was able, as a wise pastor once taught me, to eat the chicken and throw away the bones.
January 13, 2017
My least favorite James Allen book. Talking about sacrifice and being self-less. How can you help others unless you help yourself first? You CAN'T. You don't want the blind leading the blind. I sure as heck wouldn't want someone who can barely take care of themselves helping me.
April 27, 2015
This is not too bad a book but for most you will find there are easier to read books that say the same thing. Don't discount it completely, it is worthing giving it a go.

Gratitude, forgiveness, selfishness, faith, helping others, positive thoughts, good deeds are some pillars needed for a good and fullfilling life..
August 27, 2019
I rate it 2.5
This book should be called how to be righteous, self sacrificing,
Undesirefull, unselfish and ever happy in paradise. Ok, this book have some good points
especially about Onenes and Transcendence, don’t putting blame on others, because it is
easy. Improvement of internal conditions is important - No doubts! Meditation is very helpful in deed.
Wasting time on useless chats is not a virtue - agree, sometimes I sin with it.
It is good book, it holds some interesting and useful thoughts, but... This principle of selfsacrifice and fight with selfishness and desires... I don’t understand that.
I think that selfishness is everlasting and all helping to others and altruism comes from understanding that You are One with Everything in best scenario. Or in worst case scenario
it comes from fear of being punished by God or getting to Hell or some other dogmatic subconscious nonsense. This is why some old people become religious and god-scared near the end of their lives. Isn’t that an essence of hypocrisy?
I am still perplexed...
Summary:
Evil is made for progression of human, to give a lesson and understand Light more.
*World around us is a mirror of our mind and our thoughts.

on parents in my case.
*Keep your small place in clean an tighty condition even if your place is small.
Respect things You have.
*If you think you are slave , think and find slavefish tendencies. If you’re not slave to
yourself - Nobody can inslave you.
*Not put Wealth as main goal, put it as a tool to Your Growth.
*All matter is made of thought. It’s kind of Mystical point of view.
*The only Way to becoming Master from being slave is by constant Inward Grow.
*Fight dobt and fear with Believing in Power of All.
*Meditate on your fears and worries in quite place. And course will be given to you
must be carried out.
*Meditate every day.
*Every decease and poverty has is roots in mind.

*Don’t waste time on foolish talks.
(Kid a same)
*Aim all your focus on one aim.
*Be in harmony With Great Law, this is secret of Success.
*The root of all problems is selfishness of me. ( I really don’t how it works. I am selfish and I
admit it. I care about others because I know that they are part of Myself. Isn’t that
selfishness? )
*Desire must be eliminated and it is evil. ( Now I am completely perplexed, from last book
Desire was a root of Will Power and now it is evil.... )
*Raise over impermanent things and will find Eternal and Gain Immortality.
*Give up all personal and you will rise to Impersonal and Permanent.

In a world where 'many' are looking for someone to blame for their failures, accusing others of privilege, and dismissing personal responsibility, the principles in this aged book are sorely needed!! Short but effective, this book addresses the number one and unavoidable stumbling block to success and better character: ME . Before addressing others/groups did I first address myself? this book helps answer that question and challenges one to stop the self pity, ridiculous, excuses and commit to improvement. On the path to that improvement is the washing or 'renewing' of the mind from negative thoughts and emotions. I found this book relevant and will probably read it a few more times (just so it sticks)

El libro me dejó una sensación ambivalente. Muchas de sus ideas ya las había visto en textos sobre hábitos y pensamiento positivo, por lo que no me resultó muy novedoso. Además, encontré planteamientos con los que no coincido, lo cual no significa que el autor esté errado, solo que no resonaron conmigo.
Tenía mayores expectativas y por eso sentí que me aportó menos de lo que imaginaba. Sin embargo, valoro que me permitió reafirmar aprendizajes previos y reflexionar sobre qué ideas quiero integrar y cuáles dejar pasar.

A book worth diving in. Simple, yet to the point. The path to prosperity is grounded in faith and realization. With every next word, next page, and next chapter you come to know percieve the understanding of life. The book seems to be based on James Allen's personal experiences, realizations and understanding. The way things are written, addressed, and describe the solution to the internal problems of our lives is worth exploring. A good read!

Liked:
-Overall message felt personal and really spoke to me.
-Loved the prose and integration of poetry.
-Presented many ideas about out internal battles that I will be sure to keep in mind for the future.
-Relevant to today's society. Goes to show that history repeats and that human nature is very much the same as 100+ years ago.
-Exceeded my expectations.
-Has great reread potential.
-Many great quotes.
Disliked:
-Some parts seemed repetitive and wordy due to the dated language used.

ਕੇਤਿਆ ਦੂਖ ਭੂਖ ਸਦ ਮਾਰ ॥ਏਹਿ ਭਿ ਦਾਤਿ ਤੇਰੀ ਦਾਤਾਰ ॥
James Allen perfectly explained how all failures are apparent, not real. Every slip, every fall, every return to selfishness is a lesson learned, an experience gained, from which a golden grain of wisdom is extracted, helping the striver toward the accomplishment of his lofty object.

I listened to the audiobook and it was like hearing beautiful poetry entrenched into wisdom. The messages it gave were insightful, powerful and motivating. It felt like the warm hug I’d get when talking to my grandmother. Thoughtful metaphors and I look forward to applying some of the ideas I learnt.

This was not life-changing for me but definitely had some sound advice. Love is the law. Don't change the law, but change yourself to work with the law. Not bad. I listened on YouTube at 2x speed and it only took an hour. Cheers!

Its mind bending how relevant this book is to our current society considering it was written in the early 1900s. The literature in this book is written with a graceful manner that is petite but powerful.
