The Four Agreements (book)

The Four Agreements, by Don Miguel Ruiz, is a guide to personal freedom and happiness based on ancient Toltec wisdom. It outlines four principles to transform one’s life: (1) Be impeccable with your word—truthful and positive language; (2) Don’t take anything personally—others’ actions aren’t about you; (3) Don’t make assumptions—communicate clearly and ask questions; (4) Always do your best—consistently apply effort without self-judgment. Following these agreements encourages inner peace, reduces suffering, and promotes healthier relationships by fostering honesty, resilience, and understanding.
