Bucket Filling: 3 Rules
9
Rule 1: Be a Bucket Filler You can fill a bucket by acts of kindness to yourself and/or others. When you fill a bucket you feel good as well as the other person.
10
Rule 2: Don’t Dip When you dip into someone’s else’s bucket, you dip into your own. If we do dip (and we all do dip sometimes) - sincerely apologize.
11
Rule 3: Use Your Lid Protect Your Own Bucket- guard and protect the good thoughts and feelings inside your bucket with your lid. Remember the person who is dipping is the one with the problem. Your lid controls how much you let out of your bucket. Use your lid to protect other people’s bucket.
