Self-seeking is self-destruction.
JAMES ALLENSelf-seeking is self-destruction.
JAMES ALLENCherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts.
JAMES ALLENThe Vision that you glorify in your mind, the Ideal that you enthrone in your heart – this you will build your life by, this you will become.
JAMES ALLENDoubt and fear are the great enemies of knowledge, and he who encourages them, who does not slay them, thwarts himself at every step.
JAMES ALLENA man’s worldly success will be in the measure that he sacrifices his confused animal thoughts.
JAMES ALLENYour circumstances may be uncongenial, but they shall not long remain so if you but perceive an Ideal and strive to reach it.
JAMES ALLENThe body is the servant of the mind. It obeys the operations of the mind, whether they be deliberately chosen or automatically expressed.
JAMES ALLENInto your hands will be placed the exact results of your own thoughts; you will receive that which you earn; no more, no less.
JAMES ALLENThe sole and supreme use of suffering is to purify, to burn out all that is useless and impure.
JAMES ALLENA man can only rise, conquer, and achieve by lifting up his thoughts.
JAMES ALLENOnly he whose thoughts are controlled and purified, makes the winds and the storms of the soul obey him.
JAMES ALLENCherish your visions; cherish your ideals; cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful.
JAMES ALLENA 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.
JAMES ALLENWhen a man makes his thoughts pure, he no longer desires impure food.
JAMES ALLENNot what he wishes and prays for does a man get, but what he justly earns. His wishes and prayers are only gratified and answered when they harmonize with his thoughts and actions.
JAMES ALLENAll that man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts.
