    I opened up a new book called "The 4 Agreements" by Don Miguel Ruiz and it is one of those geniusly well written books that hooks your interest in the first few pages. It talks about how we all desire approval and acceptance from all those around us. And how our words greatly impact others for the best and worst. Every time you accept a complement or an insult, you are making an agreement with that person. Especially if you feel good or hurt by those words. If you disregard these negative words and be true to yourself, you are not making any agreements with that other person.

    The 4 Agreements are:

    1. Be impeccable with your word
    2. Don't make assumptions
    3. Don't take anything personally
    4. Always do your best
