I let go of 2,400 people. The reason I stopped trying to 'increase the numbers'

July 30, 2026.
I let go of the open chat, which had about 2,400 registered members,

"Kinpattsan's Friends."

I let go of a place I had nurtured this far.

If you think about it normally,
you might think, "What a waste..."

For me personally, it was a truly major decision.

However, as the number of people grew,
a sense of discomfort gradually began to form within me.

What am I running this open chat for?

Do I want to increase the number of people?
Do I want to become famous?
Do I want to increase my followers?

When I thought about it carefully, none of those were it.

What I really wanted to do was,

to help the people right in front of me feel energized.

To help them find courage.

And,
to help them think, "Alright! Let's give it a go today!"

That is why I let go of the number 2,400.

The newly started "People Gathering Research Institute"

And starting on July 31st, I launched something new:

"Masamicchan's People Gathering Research Institute".

What I value in this place is,
"Participation" rather than "numbers"

I hold a live stream every morning at 5:55.

5:55 in the morning. Honestly, it's early (laughs).

But I want you to wake up just a little bit earlier and come listen.

Because that small challenge might
change the start of your day.

Laughing from the morning,
feeling energized,
gaining insights from someone's words,

"Alright! Let's give it a go today!"

I want you to start your day with that kind of feeling.
I want to create a place like that.

Not as subscribers, but as partners building this together

Of course, there is no need to force yourself to participate.

I don't want this open chat to become
"a place where you just sign up for the sake of it".

People who join the live sessions.
People who support others.
People who make this place interesting together.

I want to grow this place with people like that.

I, too, will deliver my best every morning.

That is why,
I would be happy if those who resonate with this vision would join.

What kind of person is a 'person who attracts others'?

There is a theme I want to research in this place.

It is,

"What kind of person is someone who naturally attracts others?"
.

They don't have to be desperate to gather people,
yet before they know it, people have gathered.

They don't have to say, "Please support me!"
yet they are naturally supported.

For such people,

what kind of mindset do they have,
what kind of actions do they take,
and how do they interact with others?

I will continue to research this together with you all, while practicing it myself.

And it would be wonderful if many people connected from this place,

supported each other, and
new challenges were born.

What I realized after letting go of 2,400 people

There are things I could only see because I let go of those 2,400 people.

What matters is not 'how many people there are,' but 'what kind of people are there.'

Rather than chasing numbers, I will cherish the person right in front of me.
From now on, that is the kind of place I will cultivate.

For those who resonate with this,
and for those who want to laugh together from the morning, get energized, and take on challenges.

Let's meet at 5:55 AM 😊
