Title: Don Miguel Ruiz's Four Agreements
Post by: Lise @ Work on Aug 08 08 07:21
I love this guy's simple philosophy on life. It's based on ancient Totecs wisdom and I just wanted to share it with you all.

  1. [SPAN class=subTitle]Be Impeccable With Your Word[/SPAN]
Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.

2. [SPAN class=subTitle]Don't Take Anything Personally[/SPAN]
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering.

3. [SPAN class=subTitle]Don't Make Assumptions[/SPAN]
Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.

4. [SPAN class=subTitle]Always Do Your Best[/SPAN]
Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
