Seller rating: This seller has earned a 4 of 5 Stars rating from Biblio customers.

More Than Words empowers youth who are in foster care, court-involved, homeless or out of school to take charge of their lives by taking charge of a business. MTW believes that when system-involved youth are challenged with authentic and increasing responsibilities in a business setting, and are given high expectations and a culture of support, they can and will address personal barriers to success, create concrete action plans for their lives, and become contributing members of society. More Than Words began as an online bookselling training program for youth in DCF custody in 2004 and opened its vibrant bookstore on Moody St in Waltham in 2005 and added its Starbucks coffee bar in 2008. MTW replicated its model in the South End of Boston in 2011, thereby doubling the number of youth served annually.

First line

When we started writing this book, the first question I asked my grandfather was: "Why did you begin studying what is right with people?"

From the jacket flap


How did you feel after your last interaction with another person? Did that person your spouse, best friend, coworker, or even a stranger "fill your bucket" by making you feel more positive? Or did that person "dip from your bucket," leaving you more negative than before?
"How Full Is Your Bucket?" reveals how even the briefest interactions affect your relationships, productivity, health, and longevity.
Organized around a simple metaphor of a dipper and a bucket, and grounded in 50 years of research, this book will show you how to greatly increase the positive moments in your work and your life while reducing the negative.
Filled with discoveries, powerful strategies, and engaging stories, "How Full Is Your Bucket?" is sure to inspire lasting changes and has all the makings of a timeless classic."
