One of the most renowned authors of the last few years is, without a doubt, Tijuana native Don Miguel Ruiz, who with his famous book “The Four Agreements” has provided wisdom and advice to millions of people, among which there is the famous host and American actress, Oprah Winfrey.

Both famous people met a few years ago, in 2013, when Don Miguel Ruiz went to Winfrey’s show. She presented him as “a doctor” and “spiritual guide”. Winfrey said that she first learned about his book, The Four Agreements through Ellen DeGeneres in 1999.

In addition, the famous host highlighted the way in which the teachings proposed by the author changed her life and said that, before reading the book, she used to think everything was about her and that is why she suffered consequences.

However, once she read the book, it was all a revelation to her. It should be noted that the most important points that this book, which has changed the lives of many people, teaches are the following:

1. Be Impeccable With Your Word
2. Don't Take Anything Personally
3. Don't Make Assumptions
4. Always Do Your Best

For Oprah, these mind teachings are necessary, because people’s lives can change if they realize it. She also said that she enjoyed this book so much that it is one of the books “her girls” read, referring to the first school she opened in South Africa.

On the other hand, Winfrey asked the author of The Four Agreements a very important question: Which is of the four agreements is his favorite? Don Miguel Ruiz answered that his favorite advice is to “always do your best”, because it is the most active of the four agreements.
