1. Be impeccable with your word.

2. Don`t take anything personally.

3. Don`t make assumptions.

4. Always do your best.

Being impeccable with your word means avoiding gossip, speaking only the truth, and using your words to create positive actions in the world. This agreement is about being honest with yourself and others, and living your life with integrity.

Not taking anything personally means not taking things that others say or do personally. You can`t control the actions of others, but you can control your reaction to them. This agreement is about not taking things too seriously, and realizing that everyone has their own perspective and motivations.

Not making assumptions means not assuming that you know what others are thinking or feeling. Instead, you should ask questions and seek clarity in your communication. This agreement is about avoiding misunderstandings and conflict, and becoming a better listener.

Always doing your best means always putting forth your best effort, even if your effort falls short of perfection. This agreement is about honoring your own potential and being true to yourself.

The Four Agreements is a guidebook for living a life of personal freedom and happiness. It presents Toltec wisdom in a clear and concise manner, and provides practical advice that can help you transform your life. Whether you are looking to improve your relationships, find inner peace, or pursue your dreams, The Four Agreements can help you get there.
