This book by James Allen came up once on Joe Rogan in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Shaka Senghor. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
“There's a book called As a Man Thinketh by James Allen... any page was about if you master your thinking, you can master your environment.”— Shaka Senghor
The guest here is Shaka Senghor: Detroit-born author, criminal-justice reform advocate, and former corporate culture leader who served 19 years for second-degree murder, including 7 in solitary confinement. He taught himself to write in prison, became an MIT Media Lab fellow, and authored the bestselling memoir 'Writing My Wrongs' and 'How to Be Free.'. Shaka Senghor recounts how 19 years in prison, 7 in solitary, became the crucible for a transformation into writer, mentor, and corporate leader.
