Practice the Four Agreements: Be impeccable with my word/ Don't take anything personally/ Don't make assumptions/ Always do my best

I really am struggling with this these days. Seriously? It’s crappy when I try so hard to be impeccable with my word and these people come along who say one thing and go ahead and do something else or the exact opposite of what they say. It’s not even funny. I know I shouldn’t be taking it personally, and that in spite of it all, I should still continue doing my best, but there are days when I’m utterly, utterly disappointed, there are no words for it.

It makes me sad.

It was on Don’t take anything personally again, which is, of all the four agreements, the most difficult for me. But hey, I always get up and try again.

I struggle with the middle two agreements. But I keep going anyway because just doing #1 and #4 have been very good for me. It’ll get easier, I’ll get the hang of it.

(I just wish it were sooner, haha.)

I’m going to have to watch #2 and #3 on this one. Not taking anything personally is probably the most difficult of all these for me because it always feels personal, no matter what I do. It needs a lot of practice to be able to distance myself from a situation that I’m involved in. Not making assumptions is easier for me to keep in check; the time that it gets out of hand is usually when I’m stressed and already upset to start with.

It’s a struggle, really, but as it’s been messing up a lot of my plans and good intentions and whatnot, I will have to get off my ass and put more effort into this one.

I had almost completely forgotten about doing all these… And since I have to get my life back under control again, I better start doing these again ASAP!
