The Fifth Agreement: A Practical Guide to Self-Mastery

A continuation, and a recap, of the previous book, The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom. The 5th Agreement presents all the previous 4 agreements that are important to understand and apply in everyday life and brings a new one with more insight. The core idea around these two books is that we have made a number of agreements, regardless of whether we remember them or not, with ourselves which can make our life good or miserable. The important aspect is that we can change these agreements, we can take back old ones and make new ones in order to improve our life. The idea of personal responsibility is present throughout the book as we are the ones that make and accept these agreements.
