This is my first time coming across your website and I am just speechless! What a wonderfully simple way to spread love and joy to each other! I would love to discuss the possibility of having you speak at our middle school or being trained to give the presentations myself. All women need to support each other and start early on to lift each other up not tear each other down. You are doing the work of an angel! Keep it up!

Yesterday I realized that my purpose is to build up and help women. Was thinking about how I could do this on a larger scale. Then I happened on an advertisement for your website and your mission. Divine intervention. I’ve armed myself with Post-It notes and some Sharpie markers and am ready to spread the word. Posted your website on my Facebook page to help build up our army. One snowflake is tiny, but multiply them and you’ve got the power of a blizzard. Let’s go, Girls !!!

I came across your site today and I am so pleased that someone has started doing this. I have struggled with a bad sense of self for a long time because of the media, and the way society portrays “being perfect” based on looks. I was bullied in school because in the other kids eyes, I was “different”. It took a lot out of me, and I still resent them to this day. I had an idea for you, I was thinking you should travel the country (The US and Canada) and speak to elementary, jr. high and high schools to get the message out. It would help tremendously when it comes to bullying, sexual preference, weight issues ect. Sometimes people need to hear it, in order for them to treat people the right way. My mother always told me “do unto others as they would do unto you” and I have tried to live by that saying for most of my life. I think if you got the message out to the younger generation, it would benefit everyone in the future! Thank you for your amazing heart and wonderful movement!

I’m a middle schooler and I found one of these in the girls bathroom. I think that’s amazing that a kid like me would do something like this it’s very sweet.

Hello. I came across this website from Witty Profiles where someone spread the word about it This is just an amazing way to give girls inspiring messages they need throughout the day, I would love if I was about to cry to go into a bathroom and see such a lovely note and it would brighten my day. I’m going to try this tomorrow at school. I just hope I don’t get caught, but it’s owrth it.

Found one of these notes at my work. I thought the note was rather nice and saw the web address so I looked it up. Great idea!

I heard about this from a close friend, and like Shadow, am about to do this at my school. I’m terrified that someone will catch me, but courageous that it will cause a movement and make the mirror end up covered in post-its.

Nikki January 12, 2012 at 7:15 pm: I have the same feelings, I want to do it at my school but I am afaid someone will catch me ( not that they would be mad, but still). I think i will “attack” my stack of post-its tonight though, because something should be changed about girls disrespecting their self image. I’m excited!

Hey Guys!

I’ve been leaving Operation Beautiful inspired notes for a while now, and the other day I found one in a library book I was reading, it made me feel amazing not only because someone was lovely enough to write me a note, but I was also extremely excited that this website has spread so far! I just wanted to say that everyone participating in this is beautiful yourselves! Everytime you leave a note you should feel incredible because you are a genuine person! And thankyou Operation Beautiful for making me feel like I may have made someone smile!
