The Post-it Plot:
I have been thinking about new ways to spread the seeds of kindness when I came across this article called The Post-It Act. Of course, I was intrigued. So I read the article, and its about a woman that was very insecure, and went to take an exam (a really tough one, at that), and went to use the restroom.
This woman had a major case of butterflies, so she pulled out her post-it notes that she always kept with her, and wrote: "You are beautiful". Then she put it on the mirror. Instantly she felt better, and she had an idea.
After that, everywhere she went... into wal-mart restrooms, into school restrooms, even in books, she would write on Post-it notes, then stick it there.
Soon, she was blogging about it. Then she realized that other people were posting notes, which is when she realized that this act needed a new blog.
Its called:
http://operationbeautiful.com/
So basically, I will be putting up post-its all over and I'm asking for your help. Please, carry Post-its and a pen/pencil. This will be EPIC. I'll keep you Post-it. Get it?
If you would like to be a part of this act, please, just carry a pen and post-its around with you. All I ask is that you write this web address on the bottom:
100actsofkindness.blogspot.com/
Want your kindness to be recognized? Please, take a picture of the post-it and send it to this email: 100actsofkindness@gmail.com.
Include your name in the email if you would like.


Think this makes no difference? Think again. At my highschool, after I began posting these notes, I found numerous girls putting up more notes! And it just spread from there. In just last year (2010-2011), a smaller district within my school had an assembly and huge act with posters and tons of stickies all devoted to making people feel good. And it works. Still dubious? Try it out.
