Join my parenting program: https://www.drlindsayemmerson.com/club Words are powerful, and as parents, we can use them to boost our children's confidence and emotional well-being.  This video shares research-backed positive communication strategies and highlights specific phrases you should avoid using with your child.

Chapter 1: Summary of How Full Is Your Bucket?"How Full Is Your Bucket?" by Tom Rath is a motivational book that explores the impact of positive and negative interactions on our emotional well-being and overall happiness. The central metaphor of the book is the idea that everyone has a "bucket" that holds their positive feelings and emotional well-being. Each person's interactions can either fill or empty this bucket.The book suggests that positive interactions—such as compliments, acts of kindness, and expressions of appreciation—are like drops that fill our bucket, leading to increased happiness, productivity, and relationship satisfaction. Conversely, negative interactions—such as criticism, neglect, or conflict—serve to drain our bucket, resulting in feelings of sadness, resentment, or discouragement.Rath emphasizes the following key concepts:1. The Power of Positive Interactions: Simple acts of kindness can significantly improve someone's day, including your own. Acknowledging and appreciating others not only fills their buckets but also yours.2. The Destructive Nature of Negativity: Negative interactions can lead to a scarcity mindset, diminishing motivation and well-being.3. Impact on Relationships: The balance of positive versus negative interactions is crucial in both personal and professional relationships. High levels of positivity contribute to stronger connections.4. Self-awareness: Individuals are encouraged to reflect on their own behaviors and consider how they can positively influence others and themselves.5. Strategies for Filling Buckets: The book provides practical strategies for fostering positive relationships and interactions, encouraging readers to be intentional about how they communicate and engage with others.Overall, "How Full Is Your Bucket?" serves as a reminder that our words and actions have profound effects on ourselves and others, encouraging a shift towards positivity to enhance our lives and the lives of those around us.Chapter 2: The Theme of How Full Is Your Bucket?"How Full Is Your Bucket?" by Tom Rath is a unique narrative that combines a children's story with motivational themes and psychological insights about the importance of positivity and emotional well-being. Here are the key plot points, character development, and thematic ideas in the book: Key Plot Points1. Introduction to the Bucket Metaphor: The story introduces the concept of a "bucket" that each person carries, which represents their emotional well-being. When the bucket is full, a person feels happy; when it is empty, they feel sad.2. Interactions with Others: The main character, a young child, learns that interactions with other people can either fill or dip into their bucket. Positive interactions – kind words, gestures, and acts of love – fill the bucket, while negative interactions – harsh words, criticism, or indifference – empty it.3. The Role of the Elderly Man: An essential character in the story is an elderly man who explains how the bucket works. His wisdom helps the child understand the importance of nurturing relationships and spreading positivity.4. Experiences in School and Home: The child experiences various situations at school and home where the actions of peers and family either fill or dip into their bucket. Through these experiences, the reader learns practical ways to contribute positively to others' lives.5. Realization and Change: As the story develops, the protagonist realizes the significance of their actions and how they can intentionally aim to fill others' buckets. This leads to a change in behavior not only for the protagonist but also for the people around them.6. Conclusion: The story concludes with an uplifting message about the simplicity and impact of kindness, encouraging readers to focus on filling not just their...

In this episode of Start With A Win, Adam sits down with Tom Rath, an author and researcher who has spent the past two decades studying how work can improve human health and well-being. His 10 books have sold more than 10 million copies and made hundreds of appearances on global bestseller lists. Tom's first book, How Full Is Your Bucket?, was an instant #1 New York Times bestseller and led to a series of books that are used in classrooms around the world. His book StrengthsFinder 2.0 is Amazon's top selling non-fiction book of all time. His newest book, Life's Great Question: Discover How You Contribute to the World, released last year.During his 13 years at Gallup, Tom led the organization's strengths, employee engagement, wellbeing, and leadership consulting worldwide. Tom has served for the past five years as an external advisor and Gallup Senior Scientist.The conversation begins around the idea of making more meaningful contributions and work and in life. Tom shares that he typically starts each day by asking the question: What could I do today that will continue to grow and contribute to the people I know and love, and my community, that will continue when I'm gone? What am I going to do today that makes someone else's life better? These contributions can be big picture, but they can also be daily tasks or interactions that improve the lives of others in the long term. He believes that if we are spending a little time in our day making a contribution like that, we can accumulate those over time, and make our work more meaningful and more effective.Tom also shares about a rare condition that causes him to be more susceptible to many cancers, but for him, having the reminder of mortality is a very powerful force for good. It's something we've seen in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic—a sense of urgency to evaluate our daily routines, how we impact people around us in the immediate and the long-term, and our relationship with our work. Prior to the pandemic, the way we worked on a daily basis was a relic of an industrial era when work was just plain bad for our well-being. Tom believes that most people have had a dysfunctional relationship with work for too long.Organizations have been so structured around profits and productivity. So each individual needs to ask themselves: Are my relationships, family, community and life better off because I joined this organization?We went into pandemic with horribly low expectations of what we get out of our work. But it is possible to have a job where you feel like you help people every day and not just enrich the pockets of your employer. Tom would love to see a great restructuring of how we work, and explains how companies can play a part.Well-being in a job is key. Tom shares about his experience with big employers who spend tens of millions of dollars on employee wellness programs, but their leaders are the ones working around the clock and expecting their employees to always be on. But then they ask why the programs are not working; “When employees see the people they look to us leaders eating over their keyboard every day and not taking time to move around…and not talking about these things, no one in the organization even feels like they have the permission to take care of themselves or their own health.”Episode Links:https://www.tomrath.orgTwitter: https://twitter.com/TomCRath/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/authortomrathLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/trath/Order your copy of Start With A Win: Tools and Lessons to Create Personal and Business Success:https://www.startwithawin.com/bookConnect with Adam:https://www.startwithawin.com/https://www.facebook.com/REMAXAdamContoshttps://twitter.com/REMAXAdamContoshttps://www.instagram.com/REMAXadamcontos/ Leave us a voicemail:888-581-4430

Tom Rath is an author and researcher who has spent the past two decades studying how work can improve human health and well-being. Tom served 13 years at Gallup, where Tom led the organization’s strengths, employee engagement, and leadership consulting worldwide. He is the author of 10 books and has sold more than 10 million copies. Tom’s first book, How Full Is Your Bucket?, co-written with his grandfather during his last year of life, was an instant #1 New York Times bestseller and it is used in classrooms around the world. He is also the author of StrengthsFinder 2.0. Tom has two books out in 2020, Life’s Great Question and It’s Not About You.   Key Takeaways [3:50] Tom shares the evolution of his literary work. [8:40] At Gallup, Tom asked people all over the world what a good life looked like for them. Relationships, what you’re doing in your community, and your health came back to be the top most important things. [9:25] Tom shares what he believes a great life is... [12:10] Your life is better off and other people’s lives are better off because of the work that you’re doing. [15:00] In Tom’s books, he encourages people to take a survey or a quiz at the end. He has learned that if you give people something to do after they’ve read your work, they’re more likely to incorporate your lessons or principals into their lives. [18:40] What people really want from leaders is trust, compassion, stability, and hope. [20:25] Leaders need to push their efforts outward and think deeply about what the world needs. [22:55] It’s in everybody’s best interest to bring humanity back into the work. Human connection leads to better quality work. [28:45] We should challenge ourselves to be better strength-finders for other people. [31:20] Tom has noticed executive teams are woefully deficient in the area of building strong relationships. He believes there are not enough women on leadership teams. [33:10] It’s human nature to surround yourself with people who act and think the same way. Tom believes it’s important to get people to think about how they can uniquely contribute to making a difference in the business from day one. [39:15] When it comes to the future of work, Tom hopes we can develop ways where humans can find their work passions and meanings a lot faster. [41:40] Tom would like to be remembered as a very caring dad and husband, first. Second, he would like to leave a legacy that lives on for years to come. [42:15] Tom’s challenge: What’s one thing you can do today that will continue to grow in your absence?   Quotable Quotes “What’s one thing you can do today that will continue to grow in your absence?” The key to leadership is trust, compassion, stability, and hope. “So many times we’re looking for answers in the wrong places and it seems counterintuitive to say look for happiness outside of you.” “My hunch is that over the next 10–25 years, just standalone narrative books, especially in non-fiction, are going to be harder and harder for people to read through and apply that knowledge.” “The part where we’ve fallen short in helping leaders is to turn a majority of their efforts outward and to think, not only about who they are, but what the world needs.” “The more leaders can draw direct connections with the way their employee’s daily work serves specific constituencies and needs, the more meaningful it makes the work and the better people feel about it, and the more likely they’ll stick with it.” “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is what are you doing for others.” — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.   Resources and Books Mentioned Tomrath.org Tom on LinkedIn Follow Tom on Twitter @Tomcrath Tom’s Latest book: It’s Not About You: A Brief Guide to a Meaningful Life How Full is Your Bucket? by Tom Rath & Donald Clifton Life’s Great Question: Discover How You Contribute to the World, by Tom Rath Strengths Based Leadership, by Tom Rath and Barry Conchie Strengths Finder 2.0, by Tom Rath Creating the Good Life: Applying Aristotle's Wisdom to Find Meaning and Happiness, by James O'Toole Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less, by Greg McKeown   The Leadership Podcast is Sponsored by:     Cultivate Grit.

They talk, in practical terms, about the distinction between “eulogy values” and “resume values” and the many benefits that obtain from prioritizing the former. Tom describes a simple method for how to assess your own particular inclinations as a contributor. The non-linear form of successful careers -- a crucial piece of advice, especially for those just starting out -- is illustrated with snippets of their personal histories.

Thank you for listening to our Finding Brave show, ranked in the Top 100 Apple Podcasts in Careers! “The main takeaway for me would be that we need to weave a discussion about contribution into more and more conversations, because it’s a way to repair the broken relationship between people and the work that they do today.” - Tom Rath When today’s Finding Brave guest was 16 years old, he learned he had a rare and catastrophic genetic mutation, one that would lead to cancers in multiple organs. After living for more than 25 years since his diagnosis—three years longer than doctors predicted—he has not only beaten the odds but has learned that time is more valuable when you can see your mortality on the horizon. His inspiring messages for listeners today focus on the impact of contribution, not only for others, but for yourself as well.

Do you know how large of an impact you can make simply focusing on being positive and doing the right thing? Today Riley discusses something he recently read in a book by Tom Rath and Donald O. Clifton of Gallup entitled How Full Is Your Bucket? This is the exponential nature of how if you make an impact in two people's lives that they share with other people how many people overall can be impacted from the initial action. What this truly means is that no matter who you are you can make an equivalent impact to the most impactful people throughout history.
