“Life is like dancing. If we have a big floor, many people will dance. Some will get angry when the rhythm changes. But life is changing all the time.”
- Don Miguel Ruiz
The relevant definition of "Profound" (from WordNet Search):
(adj) fundamental, profound (far-reaching and thoroughgoing in effect especially on the nature of something) "the fundamental revolution in human values that has occurred"; "the book underwent fundamental changes"; "committed the fundamental error of confusing spending with extravagance"; "profound social changes"
The four simple yet profound agreements which can be used as important tools on the path to personal freedom are:
- Be impeccable with your word. * "Therefore, to put another down or project negative words or energy towards another person, is to lash out at the other person because of our own insecurities."
- Don’t take anything personally. * "What anybody thinks about you, or says about you, is really about them."
- Don’t make assumptions. * "And not only do we believe our assumptions about what other people are thinking, but then we end up taking those assumptions personally and even end up resenting the person."
- Always do your best. "Agree to always do your best, with love and acceptance for the imperfect divine human that you are."
Taken from Four Profound Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz at RirianProject; which refers to The Four Agreements, a famous book by Don Miguel Ruiz.
* Might be an extremely good advice for someone like me...
