The Four Agreements at Work: An Inside Job

In his book The Four Agreements, Don Miguel Ruiz distills the essence
of Toltec wisdom into four principles for living a life of value:

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

How elegantly simple and, as some might say, a “no brainer!” But simple wisdom
isn’t common practice. While most of us believe we are impeccable with our word,
we know others who are not. And most likely, others, from time to time, consider
us far less than impeccable.

The Four Agreements are deceptively simple, yet difficult to apply. With
practice, they’re extremely effective, providing a way to experience inner peace
and happiness, while creating stronger relationships.

Each agreement is self-directed. It’s not about what you can do to change
someone’s behavior. Rather, the guides teach us how to respond appropriately to
others’ difficult behaviors and maintain smoother work relationships.

The full 1000 word article examines how to apply each of these principles at
work.
