The Fifth Agreement: A Practical Guide to Self-Mastery

You should read the fourth agreement first. I think these books actually put life into perspective. No everything is that serious or as it seems to be. But books hit people differently, so I would say to read it to see how you take it. Great book, and I definitely do recommend it to everyone.

Great book

Definitely is a perspective changer! Clean clear and concise. My 3 read from this author will definitely be buying more! Get the book!

I just finished the audible version, and liked it so much that I am listening again! I have read many self help books in my life, but Toltec wisdom is so easy to understand and incorporate into one's life. This book expands upon the 4 Agreements and adds another. It simply feels right. It is not religion, you can incorporate the lessons into what ever spiritual path you walk on. They find beauty and perfection in all life. We are all artists in our own dreams. No need to learn, just unlearn the stuff that bogs us down! The Ruiz family is a God send in this day and age, I now listen to any podcasts they are guests on and follow them on social media. Thank you Don Jose, Don Miguel Sr. & Jr. Ruiz - your work is empowering and life changing !!!!

This book was a great add-on to the four agreements. I love the concluding pages and how the author has brought us in tune with our mission. If we focus on a different agreement each week, very soon all the five agreements will become our lifestyle and will need no effort.

If you know of the infamous Four Agreements, this is both an update and an expansion... now by father and son. The original four agreements: -Be Impeccable to your word; -Don't take anything personally; -Don't make assumptions; - Always do your best. The fifth agreement is more about discernment and seeking the truth over propaganda and mistruths. Great rules to live by!

The second book in this series that I have read. This book, inspired by the wisdom of the Toltec People of southern Mexico,known as "men and women of knowledge" a society to explore the spiritual knowledge of ancient peoples. The authors, Don Miguel Ruiz and his son Don Jose are descendants of the Toltec and have devoted their lives to imparting the teachings and wisdom of their ancestors to the modern world, where we have all, unconsciously, become "Domesticated;" that is, we live our lives based on symbols that we have been taught and have then used as our belief system to live our lives. Unfortunately our belief systems are untrue, they are just made up, passed on from generation to generation. In his first book, Don Miguel introduced 4 agreements that we could make with ourselves that, if we could live by them, would release us from this domestication to live a life of truth, releasing us from the symbols that ruled our lives. The 5th agreement took the original 4 agreements to another level that provided an additional level of wisdom that would make following this path easier to do. This book is a brilliant in its analysis of how we live a life based on lies and in a sub conscious state of unawareness, and challenging in offering us a radical, yet intuitively obvious way to change our lives to a life based on what is true, understanding that the life story we create for ourselves will, to a great extent, become self fulfilling. So why not create a happy and prosperous story rather than a sad story based on lack. Doing this knowingly and understanding that everybody else is living a story they have made up (Unconsciously) and treating what they say and do accordingly, will help us to live a happier more fulfilling life. This book is capable, over time, of changing the future of humanity in a most positive way. Congratulations to Don Miguel and Don Jose for having the courage and the vision to present this to the world.:Lets hope that in time, humanity can grasp the wisdom and leave the lies and illusions of our current virtual realty behind us.

The Fifth Agreement is an excellent book for anyone looking to improve their lives and find inner peace. The book is well-written, informative, and easy to read. The authors' insight into the ancient Toltec wisdom is valuable, and the practical exercises and examples provided in the book make it easy to apply the fifth agreement in everyday life. I like the questions to oneself . “What king of messenger am I? I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to transform their lives.

His books are good, have yet to read this.

A evolução pessoal que esse livro me trouxe está sendo extraordinária. De fato sou um ser humano muito melhor e mais iluminado. The evolution this book bring to me has been terrific. Indeed I am now a better human being, much better than before and more illuminated.

Was so excited to find this sequel to the amazing four agreements

Makes a lot of sense when you apply it to the agreements you make in your own life.

Amazing
