The Four Agreement +1

  1. Be impeccable in your word. Say only what you mean. Don’t use words against yourself and don’t gossip.Your word should be used in the direction of truth and love.
  2. Don’t take things personally. Nothing others do is because of you. It is a projection of their reality and view of the world. If you can be immune to the opinions and actions of others, you will avoid needless suffering.
  3. Don’t make assumptions. Use your courage to ask questions and avoid misunderstandings. Communicate clearly.
  4. Always do your best. It will vary from day to day based on how you feel and your energy level. Simply give it your best and avoid self-judgment and regret.
  5. Be skeptical and listen. Don’t always believe yourself or others. Use the power of doubt to question everything. Is it really the truth? Does it make sense? How can I test this? Listen to the intent behind the words to understand the real message.
