Hey All,
It is the festive season and I am off work, so I thought of spending some quality time reading the books that were on my bucket list.So far have read two books which are::
Manifest: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life by Roxie Nafousi
The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz
First, I started reading "Manifest: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life," and I must say this book is a must read if you believe in manifestation. I got to know about The Four Agreements from this book itself — Manifest: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life. Coming to the book review the above image clearly defines the four agreements that are being explained in the book and they are as follows::
This agreement teaches us to be mindful of our words when we speak. If we speak positively, we attract positive energy, which brings happiness, love, peace, and all the good things into our lives. On the other hand, if we speak negatively, we attract negative energy, which leads to hate, jealousy, conflict, and unpleasant situations. In short, our words shape our reality therefore always try to speak good, and good comes back to you.
What others think about you shoulnt matter at all. We are not here to change anybodies opinion about us it is their opinion so let it be with them. Simple thumb rule of this second agreement is that other people opinion should not matter. We should not fall victim to their opinion about us. We are our best judge of ourselves as to what we are and what we are not.
Making assumptions leads to conflict and unnecessary misunderstandings because we start reacting to our own imagined stories rather than actual facts. Hence, in this third agreement, it is stated that we should not make assumptions. When in doubt, it is always better to ask questions, seek clarity, and communicate directly rather than assuming and creating confusion in our minds. Simple and easy to follow - RIGHT?
This is all about giving your best at anything you do. When you truly give your best, the universe recognizes your effort and responds in its own way. Giving it your best shot at any work you do creates good progress, peace of mind, and opens doors to opportunities you may not even see yet. Hence always do your BEST to get BEST.... its that SIMPLE...
Well this was all it in this book of Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz - simple and easy to grasp. Each agreement may look small, but when practiced, they can create a huge shift in mindset, relationships, and the way we see life. We may know everything but it is all about practising and making sure that we follow the agreements for the best outcome. Happy Reading.. Cheers
