More quotes by James Allen
If you would perfect your body, guard your mind.
James Allen
Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves they therefore remain bound.
James Allen
All that you accomplish or fail to accomplish with your life is the direct result of your thoughts.
James Allen
The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.
James Allen
Thus meditating you will no longer strive to build yourself up in your prejudices, but, forgetting self, you will remember only that you are seeking the Truth.
James Allen
The dreamers are the saviors of the world. As the visible world is sustained by the invisible, so men, through all their trials and sins and sordid vocations, are nourished by the beautiful visions of their solitary dreamers.
James Allen
There can be no progress nor achievement without sacrifice, and a man's worldly success will be by the measure that he sacrifices his confused animal thoughts, and fixes his mind on the development of his plans, and the strengthening of his resolution and self-reliance.
James Allen
A man remains ignorant because he loves ignorance, and chooses ignorant thoughts a man becomes wise because he loves wisdom and chooses wise thoughts.
James Allen
Self-control is strength. Right thought is mastery. Calmness is power.
James Allen
The very fact that you are a complainer, shows that you deserve your lot.
James Allen
Man's mind may be likened to a garden, which may be intelligently cultivated or allowed to run wild.
James Allen
A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.
James Allen
Man is made or unmade by himself. In the armory of thought he forges the weapons by which he destroys himself. He also fashions the tools with which he builds for himself heavenly mansions of joy and strength and peace.
James Allen
The will to do springs from the knowledge that we can do.
James Allen
A man's mind may be likened to a garden, which may be intelligently cultivated or allowed to run wild but whether cultivated or neglected, it must, and will, bring forth. If no useful seeds are put into it, then an abundance of useless weed seeds will fall therein, and will continue to produce their kind.
James Allen
Think lovingly, speak lovingly, act lovingly, and every need shall be supplied.
James Allen
As a man thinketh in his heart, so shall he be
James Allen
A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life.
James Allen
Man is buffeted by circumstances so long as he believes himself to be the creature of outside conditions, but when he realizes that he is a creative power, and that he may command the hidden soil and seeds of his being out of which circumstances grow, he then becomes the rightful master of himself.
James Allen
A particular train of thought persisted in, be it good or bad, cannot fail to produce its results on the character and circumstances. A man cannot directly choose his circumstances, but he can choose his thoughts, and so indirectly, yet surely, shape his circumstances.
James Allen
