Don Miguel Ruiz

“Death is not the biggest fear we have; our biggest fear is taking the risk to be alive - the risk to be alive and express what we really are.”

“Don't Make Assumptions. Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.”

“Be Impeccable With Your Word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.”

~Don Miguel Ruiz

    I used Wikipedia to look up Don Miguel Ruiz. Not far into the page on him, he was identified as the author of "The Four Agreements" (duh!). I have this book and have started reading it at least three times (from the beginning each time). This is what I get for not finishing things I start!

    Okay, I have my dunce hat on. Which corner should I go sit in?
