🕊️ [Project] The note version of the Pay It Forward Project is here! Let's pass the baton of kindness (As of 8/9)

[Latest Edition] The shock of a 39% participation rate. The "self-sustaining power of kindness" proven by the note version of Pay It Forward

The **"Pay It Forward Project"** is currently spreading widely throughout the note community. This initiative, launched by organizer LaLaLa with the goal of "passing on the kindness you received to three other people," has just broken another phenomenal record.

According to the latest tally, against the kindness of 236 people that the project has reached, the number of creators who have actually written articles and passed on the baton has reached 92.

1. On the verge of a "40% batting average." Phenomenal action rate

Statistically speaking, this figure of "92/236" carries significant weight.

• Latest participation rate: approximately 39.0% (92 people ÷ 236 people × 100)

Rising further from the previous calculation (approximately 36%), it has finally recorded an "ultra-high batting average" of 4 out of 10 people passing on the baton, which is exceptional for a voluntary project. In social media campaigns, it is common for only a few percent of viewers to take action, but in this project, nearly ten times that proportion of people are taking the time and effort to write "introduction articles for someone else."

2. People breaking through the "three major barriers" with love

Why is such a high batting average being maintained? Organizer LaLaLa analyzes that there are the following three high walls to posting these articles.

• Psychological burden: The consideration for others in having to name and choose the next three people.

• Disruption of posting cycle: The resistance to breaking one's own series or rhythm.

• Physical effort: The labor of reading others' articles, writing introductions, and setting things up.

However, the 92 creators are overcoming these walls with "love." Furthermore, there is even passion shown by those who introduce far more than the "three" required by the rules. Taro Ginga introduced 8 people, and Hayato Kurosaki introduced 10 people, and this "surplus of kindness"—the desire to spread ripples even for those who couldn't pass it on—is what supports this 39% figure.

3. The miracle of the thoughts of 236 people "recirculating"

The most beautiful episode born from this high participation rate is the fact that the baton returned (a second round) to Koyori-san, who served as the leadoff hitter, in just two weeks via a completely different route.

This "recirculation" occurred because the energy of someone new passing it on outweighed the probability of the baton being dropped. The existence of 92 "passers" tells us that the project is no longer a one-time event, but has become a **"self-sustaining culture"** of the note community.

In conclusion

The fact that "39% of people take action" means that a warm baton is definitely reaching the remaining 60% behind them, lighting a fire in their hearts.

In the world of professional baseball, a .400 hitter is in the realm of legends. This project is currently spreading a chain of kindness with legendary momentum. From 92 people to 100, and beyond.

The baton has reached you; what kind of words will you add as you pass it on to the next person?

Your "that's wonderful" reaches three people. Starting with one comment, a
circle of gentle connections.

Good morning, everyone!

I am starting a "Pay It Forward Project" to spread a circle of "kindness" and "support" within note!

This project is like a supportive baton-passing game where you pass on the joy you received to three other people.

📝 The rules for participation are very simple!

① Start once you receive a comment!

Once you receive a comment (baton) on this article of mine, or on someone else's article, you start.

② Read and comment on the articles of 3 other people

Within note, read the articles of 3 other creators that you think are "wonderful" or that you "want to support," and leave a comment with your thoughts or words of encouragement.

③ Introduce them in your own article and pass the baton

Once you have finished leaving your comments, write one note article of your own, and at the end, include the following [3 things] and post it.

• "The names of the 3 creators you commented on (or links to their articles)"

• "A message requesting the next person to receive the comment to participate"

• Hashtag #PayItForwardProject

💡 Template to paste at the end of your article

When writing your own article, please copy the text below and paste it at the very bottom!

May many wonderful encounters and warm comments spread throughout note.
I look forward to everyone's participation!

I'm going to start reading articles now and will paste the template below to leave comments. I don't know if those people will participate in Pay It Forward, but I'll give it a try.

To make sure the other person isn't surprised, I've created 3 patterns that quickly explain the purpose of the project. Please choose and use your favorite one.

Pattern 1: Standard (Recommended!)

Pattern 2: Short (Simple)

Pattern 3: Polite (When you want to convey things thoroughly)

I have created three easy-to-understand patterns so that readers can empathize and think, 'That's wonderful, I want to participate too.' Please choose the one that best matches your feelings and feel free to arrange it.

Pattern 1: Want to get to know everyone (Focus on interaction)

Pattern 2: Want to make the note town kinder (Focus on support)

Pattern 3: Simple & Casual (Focus on fun)

If you insert this 'My Thoughts' section right after the 'Let's get started!' part of your rule explanation text, it will become a wonderful article that conveys your enthusiasm very well.

Since these are just template rules, you are welcome to develop your own unique Pay It Forward project.
It doesn't have to be three people; it could be ten, or you could be the initiator and do it for three people every day! 🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆
