Second audiolivre dans la foulée, un peu moins intéressant que le premier, mais qui apporte quand même quelques enseignements intéressants et permet d'apprendre à se détacher et à voir les choses avec plus de distances et l'esprit apaisé. J'ai eu un peu de mal avec le fatras religieux, mais au delà de cela, les enseignements (même s'ils restent relativement simplistes et un peu bisounours) sont intéressants et méritent d'être creusés et approfondis au jour le jour de façon à vivre plus paisiblement.
As good as the advice in this book is, it's hard to consider it groundbreaking. Part of that could be due to the prominence of these ideas in culture today. The 4 agreements are quite simple:
This is a short take on these ideas and why with just these 4 rules you can live a happier, more productive, more fulfilled life. In my past job, we did quite a number of personal development/self-help talks and exercises. The idea of agreements/expectations was a big one, so those two on this list felt directly out of that. “Don't take anything personally” reminds me of stoicism, and “always do your best” is good advice for a 1st grader on up.
While not revolutionary, these are good reminders and inspiration for sure.
