The theory is good but it has quite a lot of filling

This is another reference book in my life, I've read it a couple of times cover to cover and then in bits and pieces. It is invaluable to understanding The Four Agreements; without this companion, 4 agreements is a bit esoteric and unreachable. But this book makes everything come together and make so much more sense. I don't think this book will stand on its own, but really necessary with the 4 agreements book. Again, a bit New Agey so might put off some folks but suspend reality on that part and glean whatever speaks to you. I find it immensely valuable.

Funny enough, I rated the original a mediocre 3-stars. I found the original to be trite and too full of generalities. I liked the perspective of the book overall in some ways -- ie. describing society overall as the collective "dream of the world" was a cool metaphor. But I found the original to be lacking in tactical suggestions that you can implement in real life; there are soooo many books out there with similar advice that give way more practical advice and suggestions to actually improve your life. However, I got a LOT more out of this Companion Guide. The OG is maybe worth reading for background but it can almost be skipped. The Companion Guide delivers what I expected out of the original -- a really neat practical guide to self-improvement with some cool mystical overtones -- and this Companion Guide actually gives you the tools to implement that the original lacks. Skip the original if pressed for time and just read the Companion Guide.

Pudiera confundirse con un libro de superación personal pero realmente es un libro de filosofía de vida. Excelente.

This book offers practical exercises, meditations, and affirmations to help readers navigate and overcome the challenges they may encounter on their path to personal freedom and happiness. Overall, the book aims to provide readers with the necessary tools and insights to live a more authentic and fulfilling life by embodying the four agreements in their relationships, communication, and overall approach to life.

I felt I was reading the ramblings of a lunatic- a positive, loving one - but, still a lunatic. I did take a few positive reminders from it.

This companion to The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom is as worthwhile as the first. I recommend this brief read too.

a wonderful, incredibly fast read that reminds you to respect yourself above all - good for hard times, easy times, inner struggles, outer struggles, and more - I've recommended this book endlessly, coupled with Pema Chodon's When Things Fall Apart

This is good. I can’t remember exactly what happened in The Four Agreements, but it was starting to come back to me as I was reading this. It was another good reminder that there are things in this world that burden us and we need to change those beliefs in order to live a better, more fulfilling life. This was an interactive approach, don Miguel encourages us to write two different books or journals of our life. I also enjoyed the success stories at the end of the book.

I want to read this for my betterment

It treads on (not many but some good unique topics) .It gets a little personal about midway.love the way how the writer shows his own comprehension of religion (I prefer books that discuss religion minimally). Would recommend to read it when you don't know which book to start next.

Must-read for all people
