The Ancient Tibetan Four Agreements
By Don Miguel Ruiz
- Be impeccable with your word.
A life without reflection is a life not well lived.
- Don’t take anything personally.
Nothing people say or do to you is personal. Having knowledge about yourself is to have satisfaction with this fact.
- Don’t make assumptions.
Making assumptions is the quality of prison-minded people. Happiness is about being open to “what comes next”.
- Always do your best.
In this case, “doing your best” means living life to the fullest with clarity in vision. Hence the use of questions.
For
Example Sharks are smart. But they are dumb outside of water. They
don’t know anything outside water. It is us, the human beings, who are
knowledgeable about the world and the universe. Sharks are vulnerable to
nuclear attacks. At this point, humans have protections against such
wild weapons. The ancient man had tools like Telescope. It was his peek
into the unknown. It was all about Astronomy. For man was seen in Mars.
The excitement and fear of the unknown. The delaying of rewards with the
use of right incentives. Universe is proud of man and his achievements.
You, and I are not mutually exclusive.
