When our individual bucket is complete, we always feel happy and content. On the other hand, people that make other people feel bad are called bucket dippers.

Be kind
Kindness is a quality that every individual should have in them. It means you can always make someone happy by being kind to them and helping them if they face a problem. Rather than being a rude person and making someone sad, you can choose the path of kindness and make someone happy. This will also help you feel good about yourself.
Sharing is caring
We have all heard the famous quote, “Sharing is caring.” While it seems like a cliché, it is a critical point to remember in order to be a bucket filler.

Hence, sharing is an important quality to adapt to if you want to be a bucket filler and make somebody’s day.
Take turns
Following up on the point of sharing, taking turns is always a good way of being a bucket filler. Taking turns with your friends to complete tasks or play a game always shows how you are a kind person and believe in inequality.
Being respectful
Respect is an essential quality that people should have. Being obedient to your teachers, friends, classmates, and family helps them feel happy and also motivates you to keep being respectful to other people. It is a quality that every good human being has. It makes you a good person as a whole, adds it to your bucket, and becomes a bucket filler for you and for everyone you have been respectful to.
