The Four Agreements
Hohiha"The Four Agreements" is a self-help book written by Don Miguel Ruiz, a Mexican author and spiritual teacher. The book was first published in 1997 and has since become a popular resource for personal growth and development.
The book is based on four guiding principles, or "agreements," that are designed to help individuals achieve personal freedom and happiness. The four agreements are:
1. Be impeccable with your word: Speak with integrity and say only what you mean.
2. Don't take anything personally: Don't take things personally, as others' actions and words are more a reflection of themselves than of you.
3. Don't make assumptions: Avoid making assumptions and instead ask questions and seek clarification.
4. Always do your best: Do your best in all aspects of life, and avoid self-judgment and regret.
Throughout the book, Ruiz explores the philosophical underpinnings of these agreements and offers practical guidance on how to incorporate them into daily life. He draws upon ancient Toltec wisdom and other spiritual traditions to provide a holistic approach to personal growth and transformation.
"The Four Agreements" has been widely praised for its simple yet powerful message and its accessibility to readers of all backgrounds. It has become a bestseller and has been translated into over 40 languages.
