The Four Agreements

 ''Self-rejection is the biggest sin that you commit.''
 ― Miguel Ruiz, The Four Agreements

      In his book The four Agreements Don Miguel Ruiz explains the main four agreements which we should make for a better personal freedom . The book offers a code of conduct based on ancient Toltec wisdom that advocates freedom from self -limiting beliefs .

      The four Agreements  told by Don Miguel Are 
1) Be Impeccable with your words 
                                      what does that mean ?  It means that words are more powerful  than we think ,words can plant a idea in someone's mind like inception , words can incite fear in a person. so the author suggests to use words wisely while we speak .
 
2) Don't  take anything personally
                                        As the first agreement is about the power of words so i true if someone uses that power of words on us in that case we should take nothing personally .Nothing others do is because of you. Its a bold statement but think about it we should should stop blaming ourselves for the action of others ,it changes our life dramatically . 
3) Don't  make assumptions 
                                        How often do we assume things  and make certain situations in our mind and then find out that the opposite is true , its better to stop making assumptions of the things that are out of our control . 
4) Always do your best   
                                    Author tells us that the final agreement is about doing the top three agreements at our best and to do everything at our  best in our life so we don't have any regrets at the end of day . 

           Read this book at least  once to see things and situation's from a different point of view and for self improvement.
