4 Toltec agreements

 

We all in the course of our lives made decisions that may come to harm, and are not as we expected and we reproach for having taken. 

We have to stop doing that and follow the 4 Toltec agreements, which proposes Dr. Miguel Ruiz.

First, the Toltecs are a pre-Columbian culture, which dominated most of central Mexico, among the centuries X and XII AD, and which was characterized by the extensive development of their esoteric knowledge, which survived transmitted from generation to generation.

The agreements are dogmas or principles, whose application in all aspects of our life, lead us to achieve a high level of inner peace and tranquility.

4 agreements:

1. Be impeccable with your word: This agreement speaks to us, to use the words properly. It is to be consistent with what you think and what you do. So you get to be authentic and respectable.

2. Do not take anything personally: Whatever happens around you, do not take it personally, because if you do, you expose yourself to suffer for nothing, just trying to trust you, in who you are and what you do.

3. Do not make assumptions: Do not take anything for granted. If you have doubts and suspicions, always ask. Suppose, it makes you invent stories that only poison your soul and have no foundation.

4. Always do your best: Always do your best, with maximum effort and enjoying what you do, and so achieve good results and you never regret anything. And if you fall, you start again.

"There is no reason to suffer. The only reason you suffer is because you choose. If you look at your life you will find many excuses to suffer, but no valid reason. The same applies to happiness. Happiness is a choice, but so is suffering. "
