I learned alot from reading this book,and I highly recommend the companion edition, as it expands upon the principles and gives much more insight then The Four Agreements alone.
Third time reading this but first time reading the companion piece and it really helped me reflect on a new level. Highly recommend if you’re trying to build a more peaceful life for yourself.
I will definitely be coming back to this. This book makes you rethink some of your more inauthentic moments, and encourages a more honest and responsible way of acting in the world.
I’ve read a lot of self help books, and I’m still a little f***ed up but a little less beyond help. This is it. This is the only one I can remember and consistently come back to. The gist is this: you’re responsible for you. Good, bad, ugly, all of it. Your thoughts, your feelings, your actions. How you respond to the actions of others. You literally can only control yourself, so focus on that and do it well. Be kind to you and be kind to others. And be honest. The end.
I'm a fan of the Four Agreements. Do I think it's really from the Toltecs? Er, perhaps not. But it is good thinking that leads to a more spiritual life. I tack these thoughts to my door at work.
