Summary: The Four Agreements: Review
Comment: This book is a good read. The four agreements are very, very useful for anyone. There is a spiritual underlying theme, but if you are not religious, like I am not....just take the jewels from the book and disregard the rest.
I strongly recommend this book to everyone. I believe, everyone and I mean everyone in the world should read this book. If everyone did the four agreements, there would be a lot less conflict in the world.

Summary: What a Rude Joke
Comment: The book is disappointing on many levels. If your life is so shallow that you need to hear some of the common sense and simple views in this book, you are already in trouble. You could learn more from Buddha and Jesus of Nazareth.
And what is this garbage about Toltec wisdom? The Toltecs were an extremely aggressive and expansionistic society in MesoAmerican history. Although they left a number of monuments and numerous glyphs at cities like Chitzen Itza (which is as Mayan as Toltec), they were hardly peace-loving group from whom I would draw deep wisdom for everyday life.
May I suggest probing through Zen Buddhism for more enlightenment or the Gospel accounts associated with Jesus of Nazareth. I have found far more richness and depth.
If you are bent on being "free" in your "spirit" and making your own morality and rules then maybe you should read Nietzsche for that line of absurdity. At least, he has more intellectual prowess to offer. Again, this is a book does not offer any new, deep, spiritual wisdom. Indeed, it's just a simple read on four dynamics that you might agree with in a world without restraint. Sorry, this does not measure up to anything astounding.

Summary: One of the Most popular books you could ever read....
Comment: As a trainer and professional writer, I can't tell you how powerful this little book is. If you really want to change the outcome of your life, read this book. The four agreements are simple, yet profoundly challenging. If more people followed the Four Agreements, we'd live in a near paradise....
Thank you, Mr. Ruiz, for a magnificent contribution of intellect, vision and information.... I use this book regularly and refer to it often. For a small book, it carries a massively important message that can help the reader towards attaining personal growth, personal integrity and real authenticity in this lifetime.

Summary: Gina Rubel's Review of The Four Agreements
Comment: Don Miguel's The Four Agreements is a life-altering book. Every person I know in business should read this book and adopt the philosophies at home and in work. I have recommended this book to lawyers, advertising and marketing agency executives, accountants, public relations practitioners, publicists, women in business and so many others. It's a refreshing view of how we can live our lives more fully, achieve personal and professional success, and love ourselves and others in a perpetual state of awareness and growing wisdom.
