The 1st Agreement - Be Impeccable With Your Word
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 тра 2014
- The Four Agreements, was published in 1997 and has sold around 4 million copies. It advocates personal freedom from agreements and beliefs that we have made with ourselves and others that are creating limitation and unhappiness in our lives. Ultimately, it is about finding one's own integrity, self-love, and peace within this reality. The Four Agreements go very deep, but plainly stated, they are:
1. Be Impeccable With Your Word
2. Don't Take Anything Personally
3. Don't Make Assumptions
4. Always Do Your Best - Розваги
The words you throw are seeds you sow.
Read this book without judgement, make no assumptions. This book has changed my life. Thanks so much for allowing me to listen.
Me too. I listen to the entire book once every year since it was written.. I've given more copies of this book as presents than any other gift (followed by life after life by Dr Raymond Moody). This book is one that has to be listened to many times and each time you will find something new, in my dozen times not once did I not come away with another new epiphany that has enriched my life :)
This book makes me think very strongly that the world and human life is already written and designed to end some day. It's like the animal kingdom, perfect!
I recommend "The Go Giver"

The Four Agreements book has changed my life! Till this day I still enjoy reading this book to continue reminding myself of these four amazing life skills that make your life so much happier!! Thank you!
I tell people all the time that this book changed my life, I knew I wasn't alone.
Eckhart Tolle "Power of Now" and "A New Earth" are excellent accompaniments to this book!
this is how I'm going to change my life forever
This book changed my life, i'm so glad i found it now i can listen to it when ever i want.. thank you so much
My favorite book of wisdom of all time, it changed my life. I listen to the entire book once or more every year since I found it..
I listen to it while cleaning, laundry... driving.. I've given more copies of this book as presents than any other gift (followed by life after life by Dr Raymond Moody). This book is one that has to be listened to many times and each time you will find something new, in my dozen times not once did I not come away with another new epiphany that has enriched my life :)

The best book I ever bought!
Following this, 4 years later my life is almost completely heavenly by keeping my word. Amazing amazing book.
wow this has been out for over twenty years and I 've only just found my truth just by listening as a native women this is so awesome that I need to tell my sister who is going to start listening right away thank you DonMiguel Ruiz for reminding us about something my elders had always said
Don Miguel took his points from toltec (toltecatl) teachings.

I can totally relate. As a child, I overheard a neighbor comment on what an "unattractive child" I was. Another commented that I was "fat" which my mother overheard but did nothing about. I've grown up with those words in the back of my mind. The power of the WORD is strong! What a horrid thing to do to a child's self esteem!
So glad I found this...gonna get the book tomorrow. Thank you!!
Misused of your word is but a reflection of yourself.
Wow, what a beautiful agreement this is, be impecable with your word. Everything I just heard is true, I just realized how important my word is. Thank you Don Miguel for these wonderful words of wisdom. 🙏🏽 God bless everyone ❤️❤️❤️.
THANK YOU SO MUCH DR.RUIZ !!!!!!!!!
Very grateful for this wisdom 💖
I love Don Miguel Ruiz' teachings. I studied Tibetan Buddhism for decades and feel The books by Ruiz are essentially the same, and maybe clearer. Have begun to use them in volunteer groups for #BernieSanders2016. #seethebern UA-cam seethebern
The nice thing about Ruiz's work and the Toltec lineage is that they don't focus solely on meditation. Actually, neither does buddhism, but it is what people tend to focus on when they learn it, and I feel it's focused on even in the teachings. But besides the everyday life also being a meditation, there are clear parallels between the noble eightfold path and these 'agreements'; 'Right view' says look at things as they are without labels. That's basically 'don't make assumptions' and 'don't take anything personally'. Then 'Right speech' is pretty much 'be impeccable with your word', and I'm sure more parallels could be drawn.
In the 13th chapter of Matthew Jesus told a parable of a sower & his seeds. Some went on good ground, others not. I've heard it said that the good ground represents a good, receptive mind.
Not quite! Jesus is The Word. The good ground represents people who receive Jesus' word and understand it. They produce fruit, 30, 60 and 100 fold. It's important to realise that Jesus comes into our lives to produce the effect; it's not our word. Ruiz is a humanist (I guess) so emphasises the internal/intrinsic word of individuals. This is in strong contrast to the external Word of John's Gospel (that Ruiz mentions).
Rev Ike. Lol

Gostei muito do vídeo The Four Agreements.
I really appreciate you posting this. I couldn’t afford the book and it really made me aware of very destructive Agreements I’ve made in life. Thank you.

Life changing! Toltec wisdom is amazing!
This book is a eye opener
This is great. Played it while listening to super chill music in the Background. Hope you upload the others for the sake of the rest of the world in search of this knowledge, or those who accidentally come upon it and it changes their lives.
Nerdiest Kids me too!
(light perceiving light). we are the same exact light Seeing, Hearing, and Feeling everything in this Physical Reality Through Separate Bodies, It is the same with ALL living things the Interaction between living things is NOT dissimilar to Light looking at itself through a smoky mirror. the smoke distorts the lights reflection, which makes the light's Own Reflection Unfamiliar, So the light then regards it's own reflection as a separate Entity. This is why we see One Another as a separate 'Beings' and not the same thing. OUR Physical Bodies *ARE* The 'Smoke Distortion of Our own Reflection
❤️❤️ Resonates ❤️❤️ Words are powerful❤️❤️
Words are very powerful! Mama used to say, "believe kill and believe cure! Life and death is in the tongue "
Thank you 💟
I understand what is being said and It hypothesizes to how the bible had said a phase that is so powerful that if I was not open to what I hear the impeccability of the word. my own word have power that I have to understand what I say and how I say it because I will be the one who has to feel whatever I put out to other because I will always be talking about myself .
thank you thank you for sharing it is very inspiration
This book makes me think very strongly that the world and human life is already written and designed to end some day. It's like the animal kingdom, perfect!
Love it!!!
Spell a word, cast a spell. To enjoy a good drama, one must suspend it's disbelief, in the knowing that it's false. Put no store in stories. As soon as your not a character in a story any more, you don't exist. The ego story keeps going looking for happiness. Divine love itself is a release from all stories.
Amazing.. thank you so much
I needed to hear this.
This was insightful. Thank you for the upload, Sumbitch.
its my best book to me
This was Great!
Thank you I was referred by a very close friend of mine Sancista Brujo to your channel. I’m glad I found you.🥰🙏🏽
Wow this is good!!!
I wish I could like this a million times.
I loved this, I also pretended the narrator was Dennis Farina for added enjoyment
I fulljoy this video
Best book ever!!! TTT 177 os7
The person who is reading this also read some of Castaneda's books! At least it sounds like him! So soothing.
In Christ is the ultimate act of Grace. Im ok with these values. God will help you keep these agreements. When you fall short,make an agreement again to do well.
tks, to give us this opportunities to think about... I don't see nothing wrong with his speaks... that make sense... keep going to...
the word says our body is the holy temple
We cast spells on each other all day without even knowing it
👍🏾
very good
good
Everybody in the comments are saying it changed their life but nobody says how it changed them. So far, all I hear is a bunch of religious crap quoting bible verses.
Is it safe to listen to this audio everyday for 40 days?
until we get it right.
@@KingSteamRoller. She might be on some 13 monkeys shit? Uhm....ok (
Jesus is the way the truth and the life, we’re all sinners
@Alex Newman of course
Candace Beckles no
Should I discard my favorite rock songs and fiction books if reciting them is equivalent to speaking negativity into the world? Can I only write songs about love and positivity?
How do I honestly share how I'm "feeling" today or talk about myself on a first date without reinforcing old spells?
Is it breaking the first agreement to discuss how humans were domesticated?
crnkmnky Personally I think that as long as you’re “impeccable” or not committing a sin against yourself by writing these songs or recalling old memories, you are not breaking the first agreement.
18:20 👌🏾
listen in 0.75x to have tom hanks narrate this to you
Are you uploading the rest of the agreements?
I just wist that the author considered using negative and positive as opposed to black and white as to not encourage subliminal spells based on color.
Is this audiobook or just a summary
It's 1 chapter from the actual audiobook
the man is talking about gas lighting, this is what psychopathic family members do to make you feel bad about yourself....pure evil
hon solo not just family members but state and county officials
I really am trying to listen but I have to keep stopping and replaying do to me spacing out .. I'm weak minded
who's the reader, has someone uploaded him reading the other chapters
This narration is by Peter Coyote, the actor

mario mitchell that’s what I wanna know. His voice sure sounds better than mine. I read How Africa Shaped the Christian Mind on YT.
I read the 4 agreements and I think it induced cheating in my relationship. I stopped being suspicious stopped making assumptions stopped snooping and it just made her take advantage of that. If I had acted like normal human and not followed these rules I think it would have kept her in check.
I kind of ... get the jest of it ... some of the examples .. lacked in .. reality .. good examples but lacking .. but I still get the jest of the gig ... and for that it is .. more likely correct to a higher degree .....like I hardly ever hear anyone call some one ugley but in private chatter with some one else .. and or the word stupid ....the same ... a better example would be ... the way this alleged Judicial system refers to people as criminals and or defendents .. its amazing how in the legal system .... a person is many things via the words .. another example would be how politicians refer to other human beings as illegal ... those would be better examples and reflect a more realistic reality but I still get the jest of the gig ... think you for sharing.
what is the title of your book ?
This is an unbelievably wordy way to say " treat people with decency" . Something you should have learned as a child. The thought provoked by this is how there could be millions of people that need to read this to know enough to not tell children they have ugly voices. How could you need to be told that being ugly towards people is bad. What if the professor was a pervert. Was that supposed to stay a secret? Is being in the target of a sexual predator something that only exists in your own perception? Was this man a teacher? Because that was a very strange choice of example. That question was the seed he just planted.
Heather Wohl I enjoyed the words immensely.
Don't project it all onto Hitler - the cruelty has had many fathers - especially under those who are called heros
Talk of God hurts your case. With religion and faith involved, evil is done by good people. If your argument is good, don't need any gods for backup.
Bob Owen many an artrocity was committed in the name of religion.
My mom has told me all my life that I’m a loser good for nothing and look at me.. 😓 I’m a loser at the moment sadly got to really change this
This has to have come from Babylon.
all animals speak
Exactly, body language is always and forever more powerful than words (much as I wish it wasn't)
Really the thoughts are what really matter (what lead to corresponding emotions & actions)
This book is good but it got poisoned fast... Sin...
Branden Blais Sin only means to miss the mark. If you look at the original Hebrew and Greek words for sin it literally means miss the mark or to fall short. In that sense everyone "sins" many times a day either against themselves or others.
*TRUMP 2024*
5:03 makes this a joke
People obviously work on very different levels of reality. To some people this simple book seems to help them and have them answers to life and comfort. To me it's just a simple book with no wisdom or clever lessons. It just states common sense. It hasn't changed my life at all lol. If this pamphlet can change lives then i suspect those lives and minds were pretty vacant to start with.
We are the only animals that speak? What about dolphins and whales? Birds, dogs, wolves, etc. They don't speak English but, neither does my Mexican drywall finisher.
ralph sampson.
Your comment is a mind expanding, informative spell, cast to the aether with humility and humour.. Love it! B-)
Well U Sound Goofy Tbh's Cause Some Birds Do SPEAK Matter Fact All Specie's Speak Period ! Communication With Vocals Is Speakin Even If It Doesn't Make Sense ! My Bad I Just Reread What U Posted😭😂
Animals communicate but do not speak.. Come on y'all.
ralph sampson yeah. I thought to myself, they speak. To each other.
Don''t forget Stalin and Mao.
just couldn't help yourself.
A Sin is not 'going against yourself' as Ruiz states; it's 'going against' God! Jesus said,
'And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire'. (Matt 18:8)
Paul Shannon A sin against God is also a sin against yourself. God laws and standards are how we are supposed to live but by sinning we ultimately hurt ourselves more than anyone else, that’s why we get grow old, get sick and die.
It is written “Through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin so that death spread to all men for they all sinned”
yes but it is also said... do you not know that your body is the holy temple.
God lives inside of us... In our dna. so Miguel makes perfect sense
5:03 I laughed, sorry.
That was the point that gave me the most doubt...I'll give it another try, but I laughed too.
Have a listen to Bruce Lipton in regard to epi-genetics and the biology o belief and it will give a broader perspective on the power of our minds
Tea Kai Great, thank you for the suggestion!
You're welcome :) . While I'm at it can I point you to Bill DonAhue's you tube channel (Hidden meanings is the name of his website) He explains the hidden meaning of the bible using science and shows how it's about chemistry that takes place in our brain which then expands our wiring which then allows us to have a greater connection to reality. His channel is one of my you tube treasure finds.
I am confused. What did you laugh about?
