| The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom (A Toltec Wisdom Book) by Amber-Allen Publishing Simple but Great and life changing Book |
| I wish I had read this book years ago. Life would not have been so hard to live. |
| The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom (A Toltec Wisdom Book) by Amber-Allen Publishing One of the Most popular books you could ever read.... |
As a trainer and professional writer, I can't tell you how powerful this little book is. If you really want to change the outcome of your life, read this book. The four agreements are simple, yet profoundly challenging. If more people followed the Four Agreements, we'd live in a near paradise....
Thank you, Mr. Ruiz, for a magnificent contribution of intellect, vision and information.... I use this book regularly and refer to it often. For a small book, it carries a massively important message that can help the reader towards attaining personal growth, personal integrity and real authenticity in this lifetime. |
| The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom (A Toltec Wisdom Book) by Amber-Allen Publishing Gina Rubel's Review of The Four Agreements |
| Don Miguel's The Four Agreements is a life-altering book. Every person I know in business should read this book and adopt the philosophies at home and in work. I have recommended this book to lawyers, advertising and marketing agency executives, accountants, public relations practitioners, publicists, women in business and so many others. It's a refreshing view of how we can live our lives more fully, achieve personal and professional success, and love ourselves and others in a perpetual state of awareness and growing wisdom. |
| The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom (A Toltec Wisdom Book) by Amber-Allen Publishing Infuriating rubbish - and I have myself to blame |
The book is well criticized in many of the 1-star reviews so I won't repeat the valid points made there but just add to the numbers.
I am shocked that I actually bought this book - but there it is in my order history, bought from Amazon in late 2004. My age at the time (28 :-) ) does not justify this choice and I can only hope that it was a "people who bought this also bought" inspiration after putting Csikszentmihalyi's "Flow" into my cart.
On the upside, I don't have any friends or relatives to think less of for giving it to me as a gift. And this teaches me to never ever trust the average ratings on Amazon again but always to check for very low ratings. |
| The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom (A Toltec Wisdom Book) by Amber-Allen Publishing The Four Agreements will improve your life 100 x! |
The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz is awesome! I actually read the sequel "The Mastery of Love" first and loved that book, so it's no surprise that "The Four Agreements" made just as deep an impression on me as it did.
Ruiz's agreements are a small but incredibly useful set of "rules-to-live-by" that when used can revolutionize one's life! For example, the act of just being impeccable with my word made such a big difference for me. I told someone I would go to an event but felt
like giving an excuse and not going. However, my better side won out and I stayed the course, kept my word and had the most marvelous time! Also, a few things neatly resolved themselves while I was away. If I hadn't left the house, I would have just sat at home and sulked about the situation. The universe does indeed provide!
Other authors I highly recommend are Ariel & Shya Kane who have written Being Here: Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment, and Working on Yourself Doesn't Work: A Book About Instantaneous Transformation. The Kanes also have a few simple principles that when applied can shift your life dramatically. Their books belong on every spiritual seekers' bookshelf! |
| The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom (A Toltec Wisdom Book) by Amber-Allen Publishing Book Description |
| In The Four Agreements, don Miguel Ruiz reveals the source of self-limiting agreements that rob people of joy and create needless suffering. Based on ancient Toltec wisdom, the Four Agreements offer a powerful code of conduct that can rapidly transform anyone’s life to a new experience of freedom, true happiness, and love. These agreements are deceptively simple: Be impeccable with your word (speak with integrity; say only what you mean); Don’t take anything personally (nothing others do is because of you); Don’t make assumptions (find the courage to ask questions and express what you really want); Always do your best (and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret). Peter Coyote’s resonant reading emphasizes the power in these remarkable tenets. |

| Sit at the foot of a native elder and listen as great wisdom of days long past is passed down. In The Four Agreements shamanic teacher and healer Don Miguel Ruiz exposes self-limiting beliefs and presents a simple yet effective code of personal conduct learned from his Toltec ancestors. Full of grace and simple truth, this handsomely designed book makes a lovely gift for anyone making an elementary change in life, and it reads in a voice that you would expect from an indigenous shaman. The four agreements are these: Be impeccable with your word. Don't take anything personally. Don't make assumptions. Always do your best. It's the how and why one should do these things that make The Four Agreements worth reading and remembering. --P. Randall Cohan |
