AND I believe that Ruiz`s teachings on depersonalization can help us live with a greater sense of peace. When I personally take things, I ask myself (painful) questions such as: knowing that insults have nothing to do with me, as Ruiz says, prevents me from absorbing their poison. All I have to do is learn to laugh instead of cry. The fourth agreement allows readers to have a better understanding of the progress made in achieving their goals in life. This agreement involves the integration of the first three agreements into daily life and the exploitation of its own potential. [8] It is a matter of doing the best that can be managed individually, which varies from the different situations and circumstances that the individual may encounter. Ruiz believes that if you judge yourself and do your best at all times, you will be able to avoid remorse. [10] By integrating the first three chords and doing the best in all facets of life, the individual will be able to lead a life without grief or self-awareness. [10] But what I can`t control are the opinions of the people I`m going to meet during the day, those who haven`t overcome a serious mood disorder and are trying to convince me that acupuncture, meditation and yoga cure absolutely all diseases. Or those who say that the way I run my house is wrong, because nothing is usually organized. I can`t control these situations.

The third agreement describes the question of whether assumptions are made as to how it leads to suffering and why individuals should not participate in doing so. If you assume what others think, it can create stress and interpersonal conflict, because the person thinks that his hypothesis is a representation of the truth. [10] Ruiz believes that one solution to overcome the adoption act is to ask questions and ensure that communication between those involved is clear. [9] Individuals can avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama by not taking any assumptions. [1] It is possible to understand that we share the collective energy and we can all work towards personal healing that will contribute to collective healing. Even if a situation seems so personal, even if others insult you directly, it has nothing to do with you. What they say, what they do, and the opinions they give correspond to the agreements they have in their own minds… If you take things in person, you make easy prey for these predators, the black magicians.
