"The Four Agreements" by Don Miguel Ruiz is some of the best money I have ever spent. For Such a small book this one Could Certainly change many more lives did people I'll ever meet in mine. It breaks everything down and lets all your soul be your guide. The four basic agreements are: 1. Be Impeccable With Your Words. 2. Do not Take Anything Personally. 3. Do not Make Assumptions. 4. Always Do Your Best. You can not break it down much more than that. These basic goals and hopes are wonderfully helpful and a path to making ones life a bit easier. While, I'm not one for a lot of self-awareness books, self-help, etc .... but, I found this one Certainly helpful, honest and forceful. It made me take a good look at myself and make some changes in how I plan to proceed from this day. If nothing else, give yourself a chance and read this book. It might be helpful.
