Publisher's summary

Organized around a simple metaphor of a dipper and a bucket - already familiar to thousands of people - How Full Is Your Bucket? shows how even the smallest interactions we have with others every day profoundly affect our relationships, productivity, health and longevity. Coauthor Donald O. Clifton studied the effects of positive and negative emotions for half a century, and he and his colleagues interviewed millions of people around the world. Their discoveries contributed to the emergence of an entirely new field: Positive Psychology. These same discoveries are at the heart of How Full Is Your Bucket?

Clifton, who also coauthored the best seller Now, Discover Your Strengths, penned How Full Is Your Bucket? with grandson Tom Rath. Written in an engaging, conversational style, their book includes colorful stories and five strategies for increasing positive emotions, and it features an online test that measures listeners' Positive Impact.

How Full Is Your Bucket? is a quick, breezy listen. It will immediately help listeners boost the amount of positive emotions in their lives and in the lives of everyone around them. The book is sure to inspire lasting changes in all who listen to it, and it has all the makings of a timeless classic.

The expanded anniversary edition includes updated research and content and a workbook for individual and team development.

quick listen, powerful impact

I loved this book. I've read the kids version to my boys half a dozen times and never realized that there was an adult version. very practical and immediately useful, as promised by the author in the beginning. If you're on the fence even a little bit, don't hesitate, get this book now.

An Excellent Read

I enjoyed this book, it opened my eyes to things that are relevant in my life. It gave me a different prospective on how to handle people and situations. It also RE-enforced the things in my life that I am doing correct and gave insight on how to continue to grow my knowledge. I will always look to fill my bucket w/positive things, and discard all negative things.
