Part 1 The fifth agreement by Miguel Ruiz SummaryThe Fifth Agreement by Don Miguel Ruiz and José Luis Ruiz Summary The Fifth Agreement builds upon the principles outlined in the acclaimed The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. It offers a deeper understanding of personal freedom and the nature of reality. The book introduces a fifth agreement that complements the original four: The Five Agreements:Be Impeccable with Your Word: Speak with integrity and say only what you mean. Avoid using the word against yourself or to gossip about others. Don't Take Anything Personally: What others say and do is a projection of their own reality. Don't take their actions or words personally, as they are reflecting their own issues. Don't Make Assumptions: Find the courage to ask questions and express what you really want. Communicate clearly to avoid misunderstandings. Always Do Your Best: Your best will change from moment to moment, depending on your circumstances. Always strive to give your best effort without self-judgment or regret. Be Skeptical, But Learn to Listen: This is the new agreement. It encourages questioning the beliefs and stories we hold while also being open to listening and understanding others without jumping to conclusions. Core Concepts:Questioning Reality: The book emphasizes the importance of questioning what we perceive as truth. The idea is to challenge ingrained beliefs and perceptions, allowing for greater clarity and understanding. Listening: True listening means being open to others' points of view without filtering their words through our own biases and assumptions. This fosters deeper connections and enhances communication. Personal Freedom: By practicing these agreements, individuals can achieve a profound sense of personal freedom. It encourages breaking free from societal norms and personal limitations. The Power of Thought: Our thoughts shape our reality. By being mindful of our thoughts and words, we can create a better life for ourselves and others. Conclusion:The Fifth Agreement serves as a guide for individuals seeking to enhance their personal development and relationships. By embracing its principles, readers are encouraged to cultivate awareness, foster genuine communication, and create a more harmonious existence. The essence of the teachings is about living authentically, recognizing our power, and remaining open-minded in our interactions with the world.Part 2 The fifth agreement AuthorMiguel Ruiz is a Mexican author and spiritual teacher best known for his books on personal development and ancient Toltec wisdom.

Whether you're grinding up a 5% incline or crawling up a brutal 15%, choosing the right gear ratio is key to maintaining an efficient cadence—ideally around 80 RPM. Here's a breakdown of ideal gear inches and recommended chainring/cassette combinations for gradients from 5% to 15%. Gear Inches Table | BikeCalc   Takeaway Tips: Lower gear inches help maintain cadence on steeper grades. A compact crankset (e.g., 34/50T) paired with a wide-range cassette (up to 31T or 32T) gives you the flexibility to tackle tough climbs. For gradients above 12%, consider a granny gear setup or even a 1x drivetrain with a wide-range cassette.   Get Gritty Tip: The Four Agreements Get Gritty Tip: Master Your Mindset with The Four Agreements This week, let's talk about The Four Agreements—a powerful framework for living with intention, resilience, and clarity. These four simple principles can help us break free from limiting beliefs and live with more purpose in both triathlon and life. 1. Be Impeccable with Your Word. Your words create your reality. In triathlon, this means speaking positively to yourself and others. When you talk about your abilities, your goals, and your progress, choose words that empower and uplift. If you say, “I can do this,” you're setting yourself up for success. But if you tell yourself “I'll never get faster” or “This is too hard,” you're building mental barriers. Choose words that propel you forward. 2. Don't Take Anything Personally. People's opinions and reactions are a reflection of them, not you. In triathlon, you'll face challenges, setbacks, and criticism, whether it's a tough race, a hard workout, or someone questioning your pace. But remember: It's not about you. Their words and actions are influenced by their own journey. Instead of letting it derail you, stay focused on your own path, goals, and growth. 3. Don't Make Assumptions. We often create stories in our minds about what others think of us or what we think is happening in a race or workout. But assumptions only hold us back. Instead, ask questions, seek clarity, and stay open-minded. Don't assume you know the outcome of a race or a workout before you even begin. Focus on the process, not the assumptions. 4. Always Do Your Best. This one's simple but powerful: give everything you have in each moment. Whether it's an interval, a long ride, or an intense swim, always give your best effort. And remember, your best changes from day to day. Some days you'll have more energy, and some days will feel like a struggle. But as long as you show up and give your best, you are making progress.     Action Item: Apply The Four Agreements to your training this week. Focus on the words you use, let go of external opinions, stay clear of assumptions, and always do your best. This simple mindset shift will help you approach both your triathlon journey and life with more clarity, resilience, and grit.   TriDot Workout of the Week: Functional Threshold Power   Today's workout is a Functional Threshold Test (20-minute) Session Note Conducting time trial (TT): Goal is to hold pace you can sustain for the entire TT without blowing up early or having enough left to kick at the end.   10 min @ Z2 with 3 x 30 sec (30 sec) Spinups and 3 x 1 min (1 min) @ Z4   20 min - all out maximal effort   Be sure to enter/confirm your assessment results to update your training intensities and race projections.     Fun Segment: Triple Bypass Trivia! It's time to shift gears and test your mountain mettle with the Triple Bypass Trivia Showdown! Whether you've tackled this legendary Colorado ride or it's still on your bucket list, these questions will challenge your knowledge of one of the most iconic endurance events in the U.S. Grab your water bottle, clip in, and let's find out if you're a seasoned alpine expert—or just coasting! When did the first Triple Bypass ride take place? A) 1978 B) 1988 C) 1998 Answer: B) 1988 — One July day in 1988, a group of avid cyclists decided that it would be fun and challenging to ride from Evergreen to the Vail Valley, Colorado. And so it was. Thirty-seven years later and thousands of more friends beside them, the Triple Bypass is an epic bucket-list ride.   True or False: The full Triple Bypass covers approximately 118 miles with over 10,000 feet of climbing. Answer: True — The classic route takes cyclists over three mountain passes and gains roughly 10,800–10,000 feet in elevation. But what about the Double Bypass?  Answer: A good entry ride, The Double Bypass covers 801 miles and gains 6,500 feet of elevation over two mountain passes: Loveland and Vail. The Double Bypass start location for 2025 is in Empire.  Which three mountain passes are included in the full Triple Bypass route? A) Juniper, Loveland, Vail B) Independence, Kenosha, Red Mountain C) Monarch, Cottonwood, Hoosier Answer: A) Juniper, Loveland, Vail — These iconic Colorado climbs define the course. True or False: The event is a competitive race with official timing and podiums. Answer: False — The Triple Bypass is a non-competitive, fully supported challenge ride focused on endurance, experience, and personal accomplishment.    Roughly how much has the event donated to charity since its inception? A) $500,000 B) $3.5 million C) $10 million Answer: B) $3.5 million — Over the decades, the ride (organized by Team Evergreen Cycling) has contributed millions to nonprofits.   Boulder Peak Close The first Boulder Peak Triathlon was held in 1992. It quickly became one of Colorado's most iconic triathlons, known for its challenging course, especially the infamous Olde Stage Road climb. Over the years, it has attracted both elite and amateur athletes and has been a staple of the summer triathlon season in Boulder. Would you like a timeline of its notable milestones or how the course has evolved over the years?   Here's a **timeline of notable milestones** in the history of the **Boulder Peak Triathlon**, one of Colorado's most iconic endurance events: Boulder Peak Triathlon Timeline   - **1992****Inaugural Race**   - Founded by Paul Karlsson and David Jensen.   - Featured the now-famous **Olde Stage Road** climb.   - Attracted top pros like Dave Scott and Mark Allen in its first year.   - 400 participants and a $500 prize purse.   - **1996****Pro Women's Head Start Introduced**   - Suggested by Paula Newby-Fraser to increase spectator excitement.   - Created a dramatic “chase” dynamic between men and women.   - **Early 2000s****Ironman World Championship Qualifier**   - Boulder Peak briefly served as a qualifier for Kona, elevating its prestige.   - **2004****Ownership Change**   - Sold to **5430 Sports**, run by Barry and Jodee Siff.   - Continued to grow in popularity and professionalism.   - **2009****Acquired by Life Time Fitness**   - Became part of the Life Time Triathlon Series.   - Integrated into a national network of high-profile triathlons.   - **2014****Returned to Local Ownership**   - Taken over by **Without Limits Productions**, led by Lance Panigutti.   - Renewed focus on community, athlete experience, and local flavor.   - **2017** **National Recognition**   - Named one of the **Top 15 Most Amazing Triathlons in the U.S.** by *The Culture Trip* [1](https://www.withoutlimits.co/boulder-peak-triathlon-duathlon).   - **2020****COVID-19 Cancellation**   - Like many races, the event was paused due to the pandemic.   - **2021–Present****Resurgence**   - Strong return with growing participation.   - Continues to be the **crown jewel of the Colorado Triathlon Series**.   Thanks again for listening this week.

Women Who Lead 048: Betsy Cameron, Jeana Sander, Talia Tiffany | Bold Catalysts   Welcome back to this monthly series of Women Who Lead. In this episode, I'm sitting down with three lovely ladies in the real estate industry: Betsy Cameron, President of Ebby Holiday Companies; Gina Sander, Vice President and Regional Manager at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties; and Tallie Tiffany, Director of Legal Operations at HomeServices of America. We dive into the importance of legacy, bold decision-making, and the mindset shifts required to lead effectively during transformative times.   Meet the Leaders Betsy Cameron, President, Ebby Halliday Companies, betsycameron@ebby.com Jeana Sander, Vice President & Vice President & Regional Manager, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties, JeanaSander@bhhscal.com Talia Tiffany, Director of Legal Operations, HomeServices of America, TaliaTiffany@homeservices.com    Humble Beginnings in Real Estate Betsy Cameron: Raised in a real estate family, Betsy's journey led her from teaching special education to becoming an executive in the real estate industry. She credits her mother's influence, a foundation in service, and embracing both legacy and innovation as key leadership drivers. Gina Sander: Transitioning from commercial to residential real estate, Gina found a passion for guiding clients through major decisions. Her career saw acceleration through multiple leadership invites, leading to her overseeing 700 California agents with a focus on values, integrity, and authentic connection. Tallie Tiffany: With a strong background in law and real estate from a young age, Tallie blends legal expertise with practical business insights. She shares the importance of mentorship, sponsorship, and “lifting as you climb,” especially through peer collaboration.   Navigating Courageous Decisions Each leader shares their moments that required boldness—whether it was Betsy making the leap after 16 years at another brokerage, Gina uprooting her life to take a career leap, or Tallie leaving a secure legal job for the uncertainties of a commission-based role.  At the heart: integrity, compassion, and staying true to core values, even when change is uncomfortable.   Building Legacy and Fostering Inclusion We delve into how these women honor the legacies of their predecessors while innovating for the future.  All three emphasize creating space at the table for women, elevating colleagues, and developing skills through both mentorship and sponsorship.  They also discuss the importance of inclusivity and support networks within and beyond their organizations.   Real Estate and Tech: Meeting Today's Challenges Facing market challenges like affordability, inventory shortages, and shifting client expectations, the ladies highlight the critical role of education, data, and new technology tools, including AI and automated marketing solutions.  They stress adaptability and continuous learning as essential leadership qualities.   Favorite Quotes, Podcasts, and Books Tallie shares that her two favorite podcasts are "Women at Work" by Harvard Business Review and "Good Hang" by Amy Poehler.  Betsy shares that she enjoys listening to Simon Sinek the most.  Gina loved the book “The Four Agreements” by Don Miguel Ruiz and is subscribed to the Daily Stoic. She just recently finished reading “The Obstacle Is the Way” by Ryan Holiday. Also, her favorite quote is by Winston Churchill, “You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones at every dog that barks.”   When you help another woman rise, we all shine.

This is the second episode on the Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. The book is only 140 pages, but it contains some of the most powerful wisdom on the human condition that I have read.His most powerful insight? Trauma wounds, how they happen, how to identify the source, what happens if left unaddressed, and most importantly, how to heal them. Trauma arises from emotional poison involuntarily injected into our psyche. The poison is injected through words, actions, or deeds, but in most healthy relationships through spiteful words. If unhealed, that emotional poison will manifest in resentment, leading to anger. Deep unresolved anger makes any relationship impossible, leading to unwanted ruptures.To heal the infected wound arising from the poisonous bite, you must release the poison. Ruiz identifies the only way: forgiving the transgressor, even though they may not deserve it, to protect our own wellbeing. Holding onto that poison makes healing the wound almost impossible.This book is one of the most powerful books that I have ever read. It takes two to three hours to read, but its life changing wisdom has the power to heal and transform your relationships.

Just read a tiny, but mighty book by Don Luis Miguel called the Four Agreements. The four agreements are simple in formulation, but powerful in application. They are:1) Be impeccable with your word2) Don't take it personally3) Don't make assumptions4) Always do your bestThese four principles are easy to state, but difficult to apply in the hurly burly of life. Many adverse outcomes flow from the failure to adhere to these principles. Following these principles provides the bedrock for personal transformation and growth.It's not only about keeping positive agreements. It's also about breaking negative agreements too, those agreements that we unwittingly make that keep holding us back. They act as a kind of albatross keeping us from being the best version of ourselves. He teaches us how, by taking little action steps to break the agreement. Actions speak louder than words. Demonstrate. Don't explicate.Loved this book!

I've been a lover of the Four Agreements for a while but as I'm starting over and auditing my life figuring out where I went wrong and understanding how I overcommitted myself and was consistently creating a sturdy case for burnout ... I had to go back and ask myself what did i miss and did I really integrate the principles entirely? Yes we change often but we aren't just talking about a mistake we are talking bankruptcy. So far gone the only option is to burn it down and start over. So why was I so overcommited? Was I taking what oher people had going on in their life more personal than I thought?

Learning about the banking and mortgage industry can help you reach your dreams of becoming a homeowner. In this month's episode, I'm sitting down with three lovely ladies who are striving to make positive changes in gaining access to homeownership, financial education, and inclusive leadership. Grab your cafecito and join us in this lovely conversation.   Meet The Leaders Latonia Donaldson, SVP National Director of Multicultural Lending, PrimeLending Dr. Vanessa Montañez, SVP, Head of Community Lending, CityNational Bank Rosario Lawrence, Area Sales Manager, Newrez Home Loan Division Humble Beginnings in the Lending Industry and Leadership Latonia started as a processor to gain an understanding of the banking industry, then switched over to becoming a loan officer. An unexpected change happened that helped her realize the impact she was making on families achieving their homeownership dreams. This led her to transition into leadership roles with Wells Fargo, which brought her to her role now. Just like Latonia, Rosario started her banking career in 1994. Even though her first position was supposed to just help her get through college, she ended up falling in love with the industry. She decided to go down the leadership path, thanks to someone pulling her aside and showing her how it was a lucrative career that helped children. Dr. Vanessa's father accidentally guided her into business after telling her that the art major she was going for wasn't a good fit for the lifestyle she was accustomed to. After entering the banking industry, she saw how it was a powerful fuel for creating generational wealth. Seeing how transformative homeownership is for people, she joined leadership roles to ensure that the underrepresented population can continue to reach their dreams.   Challenges in Financial Leadership Roles as Minority Women Rosario shares how when there are shifts in the financial space, it impacts minorities in gaining homeownership. She becomes the voice of this demographic to ensure market shifts don't keep them from owning a home. Dr. Vanessa dives into how there have been many times she was sitting at a table and certain people would talk over her. She realized if she was going through this in her position, then how many other women of color were facing the same issue as her. Not wanting to keep being quiet about the issue, she decided she needed to be on the opposite side of the table to make positive changes for equality in homeownership. Latonia also faced the same difficulties as Dr. Vanessa. She shares how most women, no matter their backgrounds, often struggle with imposter syndrome. We're sitting at tables and when sharing our ideas, they often get ignored. But when someone else says the same thing, it becomes a great idea. This is why Latonia and the other two ladies are in the positions they are today: to stand up for rights and be a voice for those who are often underrepresented.   Mentors, Quotes, and Books Dr. Vanessa is passionate about reading and admires women who embody strength, vulnerability, and can lead with grace under pressure. She recommends Michelle Obama's book, "Becoming," and enjoys the quote, "Becoming is not about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain need, it's about the journey of continuous growth." Dr. Vanessa shares how the quote reflects that the process of growth is ongoing and contributes to one's identity. Latonia shares how she admires the CEO of TIAA, Thasunda Brown Duckett. She believes that Thasunda simplifies what it means to be a leader in the financial space while maintaining her authentic self. She's not afraid to share her journey with others and to help lift them up. Latonia's favorite quote from Thasunda is, "I rock my title, I own my character. My title belongs to my employer, my character is Thasunda Brown Duckett's ownable asset." Her favorite book is by Don Miguel Ruiz, "The Four Agreements," because it deeply resonates with her leadership style. Rosario doesn't have one person of admiration; instead, she celebrates every single person who is fighting and achieving their goals.   When you help another woman rise, we all shine. And that's how we make an impact. So, let's build each other up and shine brighter than the sun.

Send us a textIn this episode of Navigating the Customer Experience, we sit down with Fran Brzyski, CEO and Co-Founder of Hark, the leader in video and audio-driven customer feedback. With over a decade of experience in CX and Voice of Customer roles spanning startups to Fortune 50s, Fran brings a wealth of insight into transforming how brands listen and respond to customers in the modern age.Fran's journey to entrepreneurship wasn't linear. He began in finance at a major bank but quickly realized the corporate world wasn't for him. Driven by a desire to innovate and execute quickly, he pivoted into the startup world, embracing the highs and lows along the way. After working across sectors including biotech, risk and compliance, and e-commerce, he found his calling in software — drawn by the rapid feedback loops and opportunity for fast-paced innovation. Inspired by his supportive wife and parents, Fran took a leap of faith, second-mortgaged his home, and founded Hark.So, what is Hark? Fran explains that Hark was born from a realization that customer communication was evolving rapidly. While people freely share stories on social media, brand interactions remained stuck in outdated forms and text-based surveys. Hark changes that by enabling customers to share feedback via audio, video, screen share, and text — creating a multimodal, emotionally rich experience that makes people feel truly heard.Hark not only captures more meaningful customer stories, but also analyzes them to extract trends and insights across departments. The platform facilitates faster feedback loops and deeper cross-functional collaboration — turning traditional customer feedback into an engaging, action-driven experience that transforms how teams operate.Fran shares powerful use cases where Hark has driven real change. In one example, a beauty brand identified a pump issue that was initially thought to be a product defect. Through Hark's insights, they discovered it was actually a fulfillment problem — saving time, money, and improving the customer experience. Another eyewear company revamped its NPS strategy, using Hark to elevate promoters into champions, fostering brand loyalty in ways they'd never seen before.When asked about tools he can't live without, Fran points to ChatGPT, noting its versatility in helping him brainstorm, optimize operations, and make strategic decisions — effectively serving as his go-to AI business partner.Books that have influenced him? "The Four Agreements" by Don Miguel Ruiz stands out for helping him tune into what truly drives personal happiness and freedom, a mindset he carries into both life and leadership.What's Fran excited about right now? Both professionally and personally, a lot. He's energized by the accelerating pace of AI innovation, especially how it's reshaping product development and testing. Personally, raising three young kids under six keeps him grounded and present, giving him fresh perspective every day.On staying motivated, Fran emphasizes self-awareness, structure, and support. He prioritizes sleep, exercise, and quality time with his family. He also works with a coach and practices meditation to stay mentally clear and present — knowing that founder life is a marathon, not a sprint.His favorite quote? One from his mom: “This isn't a dress rehearsal, this life.” It's a reminder to be bold, stay grounded, and live intentionally — a philosophy he carries with him into every business decision.Connect with Fran:Fran Brzyski on LinkedInHark on LinkedInTune in to learn how Fran is disrupting customer feedback

In this episode, Dr. Shaw examines the concept of self-doubt.  She begins with a reference to one of her favorite books, The Four Agreements, and she talks about a featured notion of that book which is to be impeccable with your words.   Her interpretation of that is to not go against yourself, because if you do, with your perception pf self-doubt you may have a self-fulfilling prophecy on your hands.  She puts forth that the way to rectify self-doubt is to have self-compassion when having doubt and then practice not having doubt.  You can practice not having low self-esteem by marking and noting those moments when you succeed in something.  Doubt in and of itself isn't always negative... it can give you caution and help you avoid a dangerous situation.  With our children, we are sharing our life lessons and being their mentors, and if we can put them on the best path by having them avoid self-doubt, their journey might just be smoother.
