The Four Agreements
A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom
by Don Miguel Ruiz

Four and a half stars based on 223 reviews at the time of this writing shows "The Four Agreements" has brought forth a mostly positive response from its readers. It's a wonderful way to show up on the Bestsellers list.

The four agreements are: Be impeccable with your word. Don't take anything personally. Don't make assumptions. Always do your best. These agreements are displayed right in the book description ...so, if they're already given to you, why read the book?

Basically the book reveals the methods of applying the four agreements to your life to achieve inner peace. It also goes into details on why you should apply the four agreements to your everyday life. In most cases, applying them is far easier said than done (which is probably the reason for the many support materials being sold for this book, such as the Four Agreements Cards and the Four Agreements Calendar). For many, it will require thought pattern changes that require constant reminders...

The agreements Ruiz presents are handed down from an ancient Mexican society called "The Toltec." Don Miguel Ruiz himself is a shaman and writes in a clear and comforting style easy to digest (regardless of how repetitive some sections of the book are).

The book itself is actually a quick read and many say a "feel good" kind of book. Others would say the content is "common sense" that deserves being reminded about from time to time.

As a writer I can visualize a movie steeped in the mysteries of the Toltec discovered through the eyes of a disenchanted, cynical, "jet-scene" tourist that has run away from... Ah, but there goes my immagination again. *grin* I may be going off track here, but the book does not. My immagination hasn't made it onto the Bestsellers list.
