I want to suggest a reading recommendation...
The Four Agreements by: Don Miguel Ruiz
I was gifted this book in 2000 and I began to study and absorb it.
The book has a simple philosophy of following 4 important 'rules or agreements'
1. Be Impeccable With Your Word
2. Don't Take Anything Personally
3. Don't Make Assumptions
4. Always Do Your Best
It sounds so simple and guess what? It really is.
But you must study the book. It's a small and concise little gem.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
If I could, I would buy it and gift it to anyone reading this.
You can find it in any bookstore, Amazon, audible, etc... I love the audiobook version too. I love to just "Press Play" when I need a little reminder.
