Every Being Lives in his own mental world. His joys and sorrows are the creations of his own mind, and are dependent upon the mind for their existence. In the midst of the world, darkened with many sins and sorrows, in which the majority live, there abides another world, lighted up with shining virtues and unpolluted joy, in which the perfect ones live. This world can be found and entered, and the way to it is by self-control and moral excellence. It is the world of the perfect life, and it rightly belongs to man, who is not complete until crowned with perfection.

James Allen (November 28, 1864 - January 24, 1912) was a British philosophical writer known for his inspirational books and poetry. He is widely regarded as a pioneer of the self-help movement. Born in Leicester, England, Allen faced early hardship when his father was tragically murdered in America while seeking work, leaving the 15-year-old to support his family.In 1893, Allen moved to London and later South Wales, where he began a career in journalism. During this time, he met and married Lily Louisa Oram in 1895. By 1898, he was writing for The Herald of the Golden Age, a magazine aligned with his spiritual beliefs, marking the start of his prolific writing journey.Allen's most famous work, As a Man Thinketh, was published in 1903. Inspired by Proverbs 23:7, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he," the book examines the influence of thought on character and destiny. After its success, Allen retired to Ilfracombe, Devon, dedicating himself to writing and publishing over one book a year until his death in 1912.
