Agreement 1:
-Be Impeccable with Your Word-
Never use your word against others in blaming, criticizing, or gossiping
Blaming and criticizing others will get you nowhere. In the words of @naval it's a status game. watch out for these traps.
Gossiping is a fool's errand.

Gossiping is a fool's errand.
Always honor your commitments and only make commitments you intend to follow through on.Your word is your bond. In a society where relationships seem to be getting weaker. And commitments mean less and less.
Stand true to your word, this will take you farther than you know
Donât use your word against yourself indulging in guilt or shame.If you don't use your own words and subconscious to your advantage.
You already lost.
Be confident in yourself.
If you speak highly of yourself, it shows in the way you talk, move, and behave.
2nd Agreement:
-Don't Take Anything Personally-
Imagine a man comes to you and calls you stupid.
Why would you take it personally?
Do you believe him?
Do you really think you are stupid?
If not then who cares.
What he says is not about you, it's about him.

This is one of the most consistent lessons I've seen in books of wisdom.
One very well taught by the Stoic Philosopher such as Marcus Aurelius.
The only thing we can control is our attitudes and our actions.
Everything else is beyond our control
Don't worry about all that

3rd Agreement:
-Don't Make Assumptions-
We all do this, and it always leads to issues that could have been prevented so easily by...
Not making assumptions.
What does this mean?
Let's give an example: If you are not getting sales on your e-book.

What does this mean?
Let's give an example: If you are not getting sales on your e-book.
That does not mean your book sucks
That your writing sucks
And you should quit.
There are a million reasons that could be looked at:
How's your sales pitch?
Are your followers interested in what you have to offer?
How's the name and cover?
That your writing sucks
And you should quit.

The point is always to ask, seek information, seek out your friends and family's advice.
If you think someone is mad at you, ask them!
Don't just assume, this leads to negative thinking and ends up making things worst.

We live in a society of comfort and unfortunately, it's making us lazy.
Very rare is the man that does his best work.
This can be due to many things, the big one being lack of passion.
