Episode 280: The Lesson In The Four Agreements (Part 3 of 4)

This is Part 3 of my 4 part series on the 4 agreements I learned about in the book "The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide To Personal Freedom" by Don Miguel Ruiz.

This episode covers the 3rd agreement which is: Don't make assumptions. 

This is something we all do as it's how the human mind works. But if we begin to recognize when we're making assumptions and realize how they are creating emotional poison in our lives, we can transform the way we communicate with others and thus transform our lives.

In this episode, I share a couple of personal examples from my past as well as an exercise about assumptions that show how easy it is to make them.

I hope hearing this 3rd agreement gives you a new perspective about how often and unconsciously assumptions are made and helps you see the #1 action you can take that will help eliminate them.

This episode covers the 2nd agreement which is: Don't take anything personally. 

It's a powerful concept and one which I can honestly say is something I know I've struggled with on social media as a social media influencer who is very open and public with her opinions and thoughts that I know some don't agree with. 

This agreement is one I plan to follow going forward because I know it will eliminate the fear of judgment that creeps into my psyche when I do make posts that trigger negative reactions by some.

Just one negative comment can send me into a tailspin for the day!

But now all I need to do is remember this agreement I'm committing to, and no matter what someone may say, do not take it personally. It's not about me at all. It's about them and the programming they've had that drives their thoughts,...

Episode 275: The Lesson in the Four Agreements (Part 1 of 4)

I recently listened to a book on Audible that was very impactful to me, so much so that I decided to share nuggets from it on my podcast as a 4-part series. The book is called "The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide To Personal Freedom" by Don Miguel Ruiz.

I decided to separate the nuggets into 4 separate episodes because I believe each is important enough to dedicate an episode to. This episode covers the first agreement and it is a powerful one.

Here are a few comments about this book from some people who you may recognize:
