The 4 agreements. One of the best books I have ever read. This book changed my perception on life and I am ready to live in a new reality where only love exist. I will no longer place limitations of my life but live in freedom. This book shows the way to living a new reality/dream.

Paige<33

Great perspective and advice. I think all these agreements are an amazing way to look at life. It’s going to be tough to remember these on a day to day basis and put them into action but I truly want to try

Kiwikilla

Recommend to Yoga Teachers & everyone who wants to grow their spirituality practice. Absolutely loved this book. I will re-read it again and again in different stages in life and I’m so glad it has found me during a time of grieving. Pure beauty and love with words.

VSwervv

Simply amazing. This book has really helped me to not only use these 4 agreements but to also reflect on areas in my life where I had noticed I was holding myself back from being the best I can be. Great short read.

Rev_pd

Worth a look. Simple read with rewarding results.

Henleyjay

inspiring. Great outlook on life

PapaSmurfy

Agreements. Agreements were very good and something that’s stuck with me for weeks after reading. Last half got very spiritual which isn’t my cup of tea. Going to try and live by the four agreements more though

Badassjhay

Inspirational. The book Inspired me to live and be the best version of me. Bravo 👏

Must Read. Words of encouragement for progression ! Uplifting Eye Opener

Niktokarski

a valuable read. a pretty short book, but it gets the message across very well.

Dontgetplayedyall.

Everything I needed !. Thank you ! The prayers were the best part and a great ending.

Skoduh

Confused. This book was very odd. Some parts were good but some were just made me think “what am I reading?” Not thoroughly impressed.

Mariaj Ch

Nice reading. A really nice book with a beautiful message to apply in our daily lives.

Villegas.stefanny

Great book. I bought this book when I was 18 and never got to it currently 24 and I am so glad I opened it and read it gives me so much clarity helped open my mind and see things from a very different perspective. Obligated me to sit with myself and come to realization the only person responsible for my happiness will always just be me the way others see me should never affect my judgment of myself and my persona helped me understand to not take things personal and everything around me can change when I change the way I think and the words I say

-hopie

Not the average self help book. Most self help books wrap themselves in religion but this one does a good job of only bringing it up briefly and I loved this book. I look at life so differently and when I find myself misplaced or not understanding a quick reread helps

Brionna7

Must Read. 10/10 highly recommend open minded book ! Love it

BusinessLadyJ

LIFE CHANGING. This book left an indelible impression on my heart. I will cherish and implement these principles on the daily <3

Zak-12:3

Awesome. Very expanding! Coming from a poverty mind set. It brought me a lot of deeper self reflection

Jason Frazee

Yes it’s a great read.. I really love this book, but I don’t think it’s right to charge 7.99$ for the book and then charge another 8.99$ for the audible.

2/2021

Good. Easy read!

Bree2142777

Decent read. I really enjoyed this book. Some parts I felt were a bit general and vague but still gave off an important message. It surely helped me to redirect my mind and some of my negative thoughts. Overall would recommend !

Readingwitj

Life Lessons. This is a book I often refer back to and re-read. It changes your perspective and allows you to see life in a different light.

Tunzis

Worth reading, taken with a grain of salt.. This book presents a unique perspective on the human condition, and how to deal with it. Overall, I appreciate the message of a way to live in love and freedom. The author, at times, tends to exceed the bounds of reality a bit too much for me. For instance, I do not think that believing you will get cancer will actually cause cancer. In fact, believing you might get cancer may prompt you to avoid things that really do cause cancer. Other than that, good story!

Elismellsgood

GREAT READ. If you are really determined to change, then this book is for you. This book gives you great advice to shift your mindset for the better.

Myopinionme

Forgiving myself and others. Such an eye opening book. I loved it. Came into my life exactly when I needed it.

Yatusabe16

Beautiful. It’s crazy how things were explained truly recommended

Propmoe

The Four Agreements. Far to much religion in an attempt to solve relationship problems. Some solid points but they are few and far between. The solving advice is suffocated in trying to sell God or Jesus to the reader.

Yian Wang

Amazing.. This is definitely a life-changing book. I'm still young, and was told this would be a good book to read. It has no "story-line" which is a new expirience for me. Nothing bad to say about this book-- though if I could, I could go on forever about how good this book is. (:

Fithealthybrpokie

The meaning of life in 260 pages. Beautifully written and conceived, a different perspective on spirituality that very much speaks to the soul

Sapphires80

Simply beautiful. To the point and leaves you no room to make anymore excuses. Your life is what you choose.

SarahNSmith

Fantastic. So simple and profound. Excellent book.

Drewmulaa

Life Book. A rare life book that is going to be revisited by myself for many years to come. So many gems, so many outlooks and perspectives to think about & explore. The author does an amazing job of simplifying their thesis & findings for the reader to easily digest— no wonder this book is still being sold out in stores, 20+ years after it’s original release. A book for humanity. Please please please digest!

PearlEscapes

The beginning of the journey. It’s so simple, and yet it means overturning everything you learned, so it’s really quite hard to follow. That’s okay, it just means you have to practice! Practice makes the master.

KrustyCoe30

LIFE CHANGING. Firstly, WOW, & thank you x I am so grateful for this book. I am a yoga teacher who reads a lot of books about self-discovery, self-love, inner healing, engaging with the universe/the earth & all energies of life. I can honestly say that The Four Agreements is my favourite. It’s beautifully written, not pushy on beliefs, & explains everything in such an un’rambling way that you can’t help but be engrossed by every page, & absorb every beautiful word. I have read this book in 36 hours & I’m going to read it again, starting tomorrow. Absolutely - love it. With every page, my mind & body felt lighter, happier & so excited by the prospect that I am a warrior - & without putting any pressure on myself, I am going to love without fear & without judgement. The future is going to be fabulous, because I’m focusing on today, & I will focus on tomorrow - tomorrow. Thank you so very much x

Imasuthlord

Phenomenal. Eye opening and brilliantly thought provoking. A really good read for everyone, regardless of whether you’re in a good mental space or not.

Guestx197

Inspirational And Life Changing Book. This book will fuel the mind in the right ways possible

LOG Kraken

Some good lessons. This book was the first I’ve read of 2023. I’ve definitely learnt some lessons that I will utilise in day to day life. It would have probably gotten a five star rating if the book was like 20-30 pages shorter I felt like there was a lot of rambling. That being said the lessons being taught deserve to be read by everyone!

👌. Great read had some good concepts...

Eye opening. Eye opening

Chickenhawk73

Hmmmmm.........settling : o ). If you are lost and needing a point of reference in order to make sense of the everyday confusion of merely living life, to have a starting point to gauge your interaction with others, then the four simple discussions in this book can help to make these things clearer. If you are hurt, then take a leap and trust that you will find renewed strength and the beginnings of calmness by just allowing a little of what is said in these teachings touch you. No fast track new age cure, but only some wisdom for your consideration and acceptance, does help : o )

Makrtk

Simply amazing. Loved every bit of it , what an amazing book and eye opener

I understand who you are. I enjoy the good book good knowledge but respect others and he just gives you a good personality who you really are.

Klowens2627

Eye opening!!!. Most of these agreements I struggle with on a daily. But reading this book has given me a new perspective!

Madskilllz16

Eye opening and Invigorating. For only if we never took anything personally, never assumed, always gave our best and kept our word. What a society we would be! Great book

Chewbaccablitz

Life changing. All should please read this once

Mannieb87

All-time favorite. I refer back to this book so much throughout life. I read it years ago but for my introverted, love-addicted self, this has helped me tremendously.

Rev_pd

Worth a look. Simple read with rewarding results.

Rayquana

This book touched every part of me!. I bought this book and wasn’t really understanding it at first, the second time around I couldn’t put it down. I feel like I had to mature to fully wrap myself Arouca what it was teaching

Coach_Freshington

Life. The essentials of life wrapped around every word on these pages! It gets better as you read abs then re-read to allow it to sink in!! Beautiful illustrations and vibrant words make it stick! Must Read!

Lp699

Excellent!. The best and easy way to understand how to be happy and enjoy this life.

Ggduknbcgh

Must read!. Truly eye opening. The more I read, the more I knew and understood. Literally a breath of fresh air for the mind and spirit!

Brockolly

Life saving wisdom. This book is amazing and it brings me to tears every time I review and re listen to this book. It’s easier to understand than any religion that preaches their own righteous way a life should be lived, yet it provided me with more information and insight that lead to my souls salvation. Life really is not more complicated than these 4 agreements. Love it . 5/5 stars

👿👿Bruh

Great Read. I’ve been struggling with myself lately and this book has given me hope to a brighter future for myself. It’s very informative.

Cuteadventuregirl

Excellent Reminder. This book is short and easy to read yet profound. It does a great job of reminding us to stop letting our emotions dictate our life and why.

Alroshen

Eyes opening, inspiring book.. If this book would be a manual to humankind’s life, we’d live in totally different world right now. World of pure, unconditional love of everyone to everything.

Asialewis92

Best book I’ve read this far. It’s so kind and heart opening. It has really opened my eyes and mind and heart to see feel and think differently. I’m going to read this over and over again. Best book I’ve read period when it come to self development

Rockiiz

Must read. This book puts letting go of things you can’t control in a somewhat complex view. Just let go! I did however loved the way that he broke it down. This book will definitely benefit someone who has an open mind. Though I felt some of the explaining of the agreement was complex, I did understand everything the author was addressing

Anstxsia

Perspective Changing. This book was the first self help book I had decided to pick up on my journey to self discovery. Not only is it a simple read (I finished it in under 12hrs), the perspective offered by Miguel Ruiz really set the tone to living a life of outside of the usual calamity and assisted me in developing an understanding to our connection to others and the universe. I’m currently in the process of reading the other books in this series. It was an amazing read overall and was very much insightful. Great job!

MichiV95

Humbling. This book is a good way to see things differently in life. It puts you on the right path for yourself and others.

Homeuser1976

Great book. Everything about the book brings peace

Petsnplay

Only 15 pages. I don’t get it. Why isn’t it giving me the whole book. I only get the first chapter

Joseph_Joseph

Heretical, we are NOT a GOD,. This book states in a thin vail, that we are God, not true. It discuses basic Psychology 101 principles, but wraps it in new terminology, and makes it more confusing, as if it were true. It is a shame that Peter Coyote was marketed to bring this into some kind of “acceptable story”. The wisdoms of past philosophers and recent psychology sound principles are the root of this book. There are no Toltec agreements, but a statement of accepted psychology principles. There aren’t any such documents from the Toltec era, and there are no scientific references, just the author’s story opinions. This has spurred a cottage new age industry in “self help” via Toltec values - that aren’t documented anywhere. It is heresy to say that we become a God like our God. A person is better off reading basic books on -“psychology 101” and -philosophers from Greece and Rome, such as Epicurious, Socrates, -and the excellent book from Dr. David Burns “Feeling Good”, from Stanford University, -and a book titled: “You Can’t Afford the Luxury of a Negative Thought”.

Not my cup of tea. The book was well written and a fun book club discussion. There did seem to be some basic concepts in there just reworded in a very mystical sort of way that threw me off a bit. Overall, nice book just not my thing in general.
