SHEET 2. (10 points)
With its theme that “Mind is the master weaver,” creating our inner
character and outer circumstances，the book As a Man Thinking by James Allen is
an in-depth exploration of the central idea of self-help writing.
(1)Allen’s contribution was to take an assumption we all share-that because
we are not robots we therefore control our thoughts-and reveal its erroneous
nature. Because most of us believe that mind is separate from matter，we think
that thoughts can be hidden and made powerless; this allows us to think one way
and act another. However, Allen believed that the unconscious mind generates as
much action as the conscious mind, and (2) while we may be able to sustain the
illusion of control through the conscious mind alone，in reality we are
continually faced with a question: “Why cannot I make myself do this or achieve
that? “
Since desire and will are damaged by the presence of thoughts that do not
accord with desire，Allen concluded: “We do not attract what we want. but what we
are.” Achievement happens because you as a person embody the external
achievement; you don’t “get” success but become it. There is no gap between mind
and matter.
Part of the fame of Allen’s book is its contention that “Circumstances do
not make a person, they reveal him.” (3) This seems a justification for neglect
of those in need, and a rationalization of exploitation, of the superiority of
those at the top and the inferiority of those at the bottom. This, however,
would be a knee-jerk reaction to a subtle argument. Each set of circumstances,
however bad, offers a unique opportunity for growth. If circumstances always
determined the life and prospects of people, then humanity would never have
progressed. In fat, (4)circumstances seem to be designed to bring out the best
in us and if we feel that we have been “wronged” then we are unlikely to begin a
conscious effort to escape from our situation .Nevertheless，as any biographer
knows, a person’s early life and its conditions are often the greatest gift to
an individual.
The sobering aspect of Allen’s book is that we have no one else to blame
for our present condition except ourselves. (5) The upside is the possibilities
contained in knowing that everything is up to us; where before we were experts
in the array of limitations, now webecome authorities of what is possible.
