There is, and always has been, a widespread belief in Fate, or Destiny, that is, in an eternal and inscrutable Power which apportions definite ends to both individuals and nations. But, contradictory as it may appear, there is an equally widespread belief in man's responsibility as a free agent. This dual experience of fate on the one hand, and freedom on the other, has given rise to the interminable controversy between the believers in Fatalism and the upholders of free will

Autorenporträt
James Allen was a British author of philosophical books in the early 1900s. He is best known for his book, "As a Man Thinketh," published in 1903. He is widely regarded as a pioneer in the motivational/self-help movement. His down-to-earth message of positive thinking and self-empowerment has spread around the world and influenced the writings of contemporary authors, including Norman Vincent Peale's "The Power of Positive Thinking" and Joshua Liebman's "Peace of Mind."
