Pour mettre en pratique les "Quatre Accords Toltèques" et parvenir à la "Maîtrise de l'Amour", il faut dire adieu à la peur.

Quand nous sommes capables d'observer notre vie sans peur ni jugement, nous réalisons que notre rêve, ce que nous percevons comme notre réalité, peut devenir ce que nous voulons.

Nous avons tous peur de quelque chose : de déranger, d'échouer, de décevoir, d'entrer en conflit. Et, plus spécifiquement, de rougir, de conduire, de téléphoner...
