The Four Agreements

I read the book, The Four Agreements by Don Ruiz several years ago, which has really resonated with me. After reading it (and highlighting more pages than a first year college student), I had claimed these agreements for myself and swore to live by them daily. Well, I can say I do my best but still stub my toes on occasion! For those of you who havent experienced the gift of reading this book or for those who forgot, The Four Agreements are:

  1. "Be impeccable with your word"
  2. "Don't take anything personally"
  3. "Don't make assumptions"
  4. "Always do your best"
As time has passed and as I gain more wisdom, I find that I have added four more Agreements or guidelines to this list. Here they are:
  • "Live Authentically”
  • “Focus on the Positives”
  • “Choose Happiness”
  • “Walk the Talk”
I think I will post a little ‘ditty’ about EACH of these four new agreements in detail. With this being only the introduction - keep checking back for the First of Four coming soon!
