*Troward, Thomas: * - Thomas Troward (1847-1916) was an English author whose works influenced the New Thought Movement and mystic Christianity.

Bob Proctor credited Troward's works on a number of occasions, and cited The Creative Process in the Individual as the most important in developing the persistence of an individual.
