The Four Agreements

kcmarckx shared a tip "I liked and hated this book simultaneously. I was disappointed since it has been highly recommended. There are definitely some good ideas and content in this book, but there's also a lot of ideas and comments that are flat out tone deaf. Here's an example from the final chapter. "The only reason you suffer is because you choose to suffer"."

dakotastyleslife shared a tip "Ruiz does an incredible job explaining how horrible we are to ourselves in our life and these agreements he offers will keep us straight in being true to ourselves and allowing ourselves to have a happy life experience rather than a life of suffering."

lashonda_manns shared a tip "Life-changing and my top recommended required reading. A quick read, very simply written with principles that, if practiced, can bring tremendous peace. But it's hard to put them into practice consistently! Lol. I re-read this book as needed! It is a gem."

annie_truong_9761 shared a tip "I enjoyed reading this, it was an easy read. It made me feel empowered and reminding me to work on me, focus on me and then everything else will follow. Highly recommend!"

regene_gorman shared a tip "Simple, but life changing. If you focus your life on nothing more than the 4 agreements, an authentic life is inevitable. I reread this often to compare my new understanding to when I first chanced upon this amazing book."

paige_townsend_4416 shared a tip "Honestly, not making assumptions and not taking anything personally. I get nervous and feel like I am bothering people, so I don’t often clarify things."

claudia_torrisi shared a tip "I remembered reading it in a time were I was struggling alot to achieve peace and serenity in my life. This book was written in simple words and yet, it covered complex subjects that every human being face in their daily life. It truly is a book of wisdom."

caylee_james shared a tip "Loved learning how much your words matter to yourself, and others. Also, understanding that you don’t have to agree with others. You can agree with yourself!"

janie_lee shared a tip "There were a lot but the the main one is don't take anything personal. People have their own wars and demons that they are trying to fight."
