Event description

This is part two of the book discussion group. Please email me if you wish to catch up with us and join our final discussion on the book "How Full is Your Bucket" as well will also be introducing our next read!!!

It has been said "You will be the same person in five years but for two things, the PEOPLE you associate with and the BOOKS your read" ~Mark Matteson

This rings true to me and I would love to share this life journey with others who share the same belief.

"How Full is Your Bucket?" by Tom Rath & Donald Clifton- 128 pages - Gallup Press 2004

In this brief but significant book, the authors, a grandfather-grandson team, explore how using positive psychology in everyday interactions can dramatically change our lives. Clifton (coauthor of Now, Discover Your Strengths) and Rath suggest that we all have a bucket within us that needs to be filled with positive experiences, such as recognition or praise. When we're negative toward others, we use a dipper to remove from their buckets and diminish their positive outlook. When we treat others in a positive manner, we fill not only their buckets but ours as well.
