These examples show the damage that negativity (bucket emptying) can do in the workplace, and how just some small praise or compliment can make things seem much brighter. Again, the examples could be anyone, in any situation, so they are appealing and understandable to the reader, helping to make the most important points in the book stick in the mind. The book also applies to school, family life, and personal lives, so the reader can get more than one result from reading this book and then applying its principles.

Perhaps the best part of this book is not the personal examples, which can be very motivating, but the strategies the authors include to help the reader become more positive and "fill other people's buckets." The strategies could have become trite examples of positive thinking, but instead they offer solutions that seem simple and yet enlightening, such as "give unexpectedly," and "make best friends." Just about any reader can relate to these strategies, because they know the joy of both giving and receiving something unexpectedly, or making a new friend that you know will be with you for life. In this way, the strategies seem more achievable, and the reader may be more likely to put them into practice, as well.

In conclusion, while this book seems to be much like any of a million other self-help books on the market, it does make some valid points, and it does offer the reader some valuable tips to change their lives and the lives of others.
