Four Agreements Between
‘I’ and 'Self' Can Transform Life
The communication gap between self and I is the root cause of the most of the problems in life
By Mukesh Sharma
In this Age of Confusion and Confliction, the most of the people are perforce to live with afflicting fear, jealousy and self-reproach all through life. Willingly or unwillingly, one listens to others and concomitantly, acts and reacts; one seldom listens to one’s own voice. The communication gap between ‘self’ and ‘I’ is the root cause of the most of the problems in life. One of the American friends of this blogger has mentioned, interestingly, of ‘four agreements’ between ‘self’ and ‘I’ in her informal communiqué which this blogger wishes to share hereby with his valued readers, and sincerely believes that these under mentioned agreements, if followed with a resolute mind, have potential to transform one’s life.

| Transformation of Life |
1. 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 word in the direction of truth and love.
2. 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 misunderstanding, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
3. Don’t take anything personally
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to their opinion and action of others, you won’t be the victim of needless sufferings.
4. Always do your best
Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be difficult when you are tired as opposed to well-rested. Under an y circumstances, simply do your best and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
Undoubtedly, a good harmony between conscious mind, subconscious mind and conscience brings veritable happiness and success in life with nothing to remorse and regret that further frees one from the tyranny of body and trivial desires.
