The Four Agreements: [A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom] (Toltec Wisdom) (Audio CD)

Customer Review

This review applies to both "The Four Agreements" and "The Fifth Agreement", since the two (audio) books overlap in many ways and complement each other at the same time wonderful.

I almost asked me my whole adult life, how can it be actually that in interpersonal relationships, everything is always so complicated and - what is almost worse - that despite all life experience also does not seem to be easier. How many times I had to be exposed in the past to feel a hopeless struggle against windmills ... Looking for help I've read many a book and several CDs belongs. Most of these Guides contain more or less long lists of more or less complicated things that need to do it or not do. Much of it was plausible, and somehow I had the most even ever heard or read somewhere ... as a common denominator and kept coming back to the higher power for language, with their support, everything should be easier. I have so many of advice, such as the affirmations of Louise Lay and the Silva Method tried and had quite my little sense of achievement, but in all cases I had to realize sooner or later that it had not played the big breakthrough.

The two books, on which refers this review, are the first to include not only a very good summary of all the difficulties and obstacles that most people are faced in one way or another over and over again, but they are, at least for me also the first in which all the important relationships plausible and comprehensible are really representing, and immediately made me feel to finally be on the right track.

Some of imaginary scenes described as the shopping center with its many cinemas, where everyone is only concerned with his own personal film (see "The Fifth Agreement") have am particularly touched. I could not believe how easy it can be to represent a basically pretty complex issue in such a simple and easily understandable way. Of course reflects my statement, as everything I write in this review, only my personal, colored by my experiences and beliefs perspective that may not share some / r others. But reviews are always based on subjective opinions, I would like to express my enthusiasm at this point expression and anyone who is looking for his inner peace, encourage, to see at least one of the two books or heard.

As already mentioned, some of the content of the two books, "The Four Agreements" and "The Fifth Agreement," which may seem superfluous or unsettle some listener or reader overlap. Personally, I have these "reps" helped to better internalize what they have learned, and that's why I feel this overlap is not a flaw, but as an enrichment.

What I really like is how Don Miguel represents his insights from ever-changing angles and substantiated with many examples and as the "viewer" thus able without difficulty even the bow, for example, including the loss of paradise, as represented in biblical history, or to propose to the concept of heaven and hell.

In the past, it was always important to me to give other people a realistic picture of me, and I firmly believed that this should be possible. Just as I myself looked at me, so I wanted to be seen by others. And now I have to say that this is basically nothing more than a bunch of energy and was a waste of time. It's just not possible to see another human being through his eyes. Between my husband and me there have always been quite tense situations, and I think was that talk a lot and a lot of explaining would lead to a better understanding, but often was even the opposite is true, because my husband thereby put under pressure felt and accordingly responded violently. Since I know that even in a partnership everyone lives on their own and for his personal happiness and satisfaction and is alone responsible, it comes to us much more peaceful and harmonious.

Conclusion:

I know "The Four Agreements" and "The Fifth Agreement" for only a few days, but I realize that I have a lot more relaxed and calmer go already through the world, and even though I still have a long way ahead of me, is it me already worlds better. To easily find out what wrong track, I have been the longest of my life, on the one hand disappointing, but a dis-illusion is always the end of an illusion, and so this knowledge has simultaneously also something very liberating.

The spokesman, Peter Coyote, has contributed with his pleasant voice and his quiet way too the extremely positive experience that have given me these books. Five Star so for him!

Who is dissatisfied with his life, because he believes that other him / they do not understand (wanting to seem), or simply not as responsive or "work" how this could have wished for, which can improve its quality of life accessible only by the fact that he himself changed. Contrary to what one would thereby might expect, but this is not a painful process, but it frees and mobilizes a lot of strength and energy that one henceforth can use where you can order a real difference, namely himself.

Supplement of 12 December 2014:

The two audio books are now for three months in my possession, and I have dozens of times listened to at this time, causing me repeatedly revealed new relationships. Over time, the many new insights have deepened and consolidated, and the peace and serenity, with Peter Cayote reads the books, still transmits to me, what I find extremely soothing and mood-lifting. In everyday life, often stressful, it is also with the right mental attitude is not always easy to replace the many retracted negative behavior patterns with new and positive, but the more you deal with these books, the faster and better internalized to their statements, and the changes that make life easier and more enjoyable can, not long in coming.
