Hello Steemians,
This contest is to help spread the love and to continue to help each other and build here on Steemit. The contest winner will receive $10 SBD. As many of us know, Steemit is a platform that allows us to grow and get stronger with the help from our fellow Steemians here in the Steemit community. So I want to do my part and give back. I am still pretty new here and would love to be able to help someone have an opportunity to continue to build here on Steemit.
The first two contests did good, but we can do better! The better the contest the more we can help each other build. Please read carefully on how to enter. Here is how to enter the contest.
Upvote the contest
Comment on the contest. Your comment must be "PAY IT FORWARD" adding an example (on steemit or in your daily life) of how you will pay it forward is encouraged, but optional. Please at least comment "PAY IT FORWARD" or it will not be counted as an entry. Comments like "nice post" and "great job" etc will not be accepted as an entry.
ReSteems are appreciated :) The more we can get others involved, the more likely the contest will be successful. My hope is the more upvotes, comments, and Resteems the contest gets the more people I/we can help.
Everyone is welcome to join minnows to whales. I personally know (and some of you may know too) how hard it can be sometimes to develop relationships on here and put yourself out there to the world. That is what this contest is all about, its not just about the SBD it's about engaging and building one another here on Steemit as a family. The thought of always paying it forward. This can be a successful contest. Even if you don't win today, you could win the next one and more importantly you are engaging with me and others which also is helpful. So this contest is a win for everyone!
How the Winner Will be Chosen: The winner(s) will be chosen randomly using Random Name Picker. If you are not familiar with it, please refer to my post called "Together We Build Contest Winner Example" Winners will be announced in a separate post that I will call "Together We Build Contest (with the number of the contest) Winner Results"
I love having this opportunity to interact and engage with others on the site. I hope for a successful contest so I can continue to do them and keep giving back to our Steemit community. Hopefully the love will grow and someone will pay it forward in their own special way. For us to be successful, we all must continue to work together.
Please come back and check on me as I will be posting contests often. Spread the word and let's continue to build Steemit. Also, it would be appreciated if my other posts outside of the contest are upvoted, commented, and Resteemed as it will help me be able to potentially offer a larger prize or multiple prizes.
I appreciate all of you, Steemit is only as good as the people who are on it so let's continue to build a strong Steemit community. Best of luck to all of you. Thank you.
PAY IT FORWARD!!!! Greaaaaat Initiative @jr11. Simply by upvoting and resteeming and paying this game with each other is paying it forward. But today, I will help gather many donations at the @gardenofedn and see to it that they are given to those in need.
Today I've also made coffee and breakfast for an elderly lady, recorded videos for Steemit posts for others, picked greens for community green juice (which I personally planted, watered, nurtured and help nature to grow), I took out everyone's trash, their compost, and cleaned up after them in the kitchen.
I will also take snacks and dinner to an almost bedridden woman, will help someone with their catering job for free, will make some homemade artisan vinegars to enhance someone's health, and spread lots of loving comments and content around Steemit.
I may also squeeze in a few other things that I know will benefit others. And I also recognize that helping others really helps myself, as when others are happy and cared for, so are we all!!
I'm grateful to have the opportunity to live a life in service, as opposed to working my life away to get a paycheck to buy more things.
I think you've just inspired me to write a post about this @jr11. Thanks for giving us an opportunity to really share the love! You're awesome! <3
@everlove Awesome! you're constantly spreading the love around in your community and on Steemit which is a beautiful thing. I know with your passion and focus you can accomplish anything. It is the simple things in life that we can do for people to make our world better on and off Steemit. I would be honored if you wrote a post. Much love to you and the @gardenofeden family. <3

I'm always trying to get more people into Steemit platform and helping them to understunda what is this about. Got at least five people but hope I can spread ot much more as I'm always aware of giving the info to those I think they will understand and get involved.
Thanks for the chance

Thank you <3
PAY IT FORWARD!
first of all I say gratitude to you @jr11 with of magnitude because you have to give the opportunity to US all to tell in our lives in steemit.
I am a newcomer to a lot of knowledge that I get in steemit, although I was disappointed because every time I post no one vote or comment on my post, but finally I realize that steemit should have a sense of patience and I ultimately think that success needs to process with a time that can not be determined, to achieve success it must be patient and hard work with full of spirit, then success will await me and friends all together, with the steemit I can learn how to write correctly so that in the future every post I can more qualified and liked by many friends in steemit.
thanks to steemit with steemit I can share it by way of vote and share post to other friends, and with the steemit can get to know each other, by way of commenting in each post so that more closely with other friends who in Indonesia and abroad.
once again I thank you @jr11 for writing a very useful and useful post for the crowd.
@muna10 It can be frustrating at times, but yes, being patient is helpful. Interacting with others etc is also a key component. Remain focused and you will do great here. I wish you the best of luck.
thank you very much for the reply @ jjr11 i always focus the same steemit because steemit has made people banyan to a better way than before

Great idea. I will definitely resteem more fellow steemians to help spread the love and get others' content out there. Kudos! Resteemed.
@jgullinese Thank you for your support. It is appreciated and I am thankful to have others join in as this is a team effort. I wish you the best of luck and again I thank you.

Steemit is all about PAYing IT FORWARD! I haven't here for long, but am trying to share academic knowledge beyond the ivory tower. Knowledge should be free and for everyone!
I pay it forward on Steemit by resteeming valuable content and not spamming comments sections. Since understanding the whole voting/rewards system, I do not upvote any posts (and have never used a voting bot) as I prefer to use my limited voting power to promote other people's good work.
I plan on using whatever I make off of Steemit to help support the unpaid activities I do with two environmental charities (Fair sa Part/Fr, and Permaculture Pathways/UK) and the Swiss Red Cross, which takes up half my working week and weekends.
Thanks for the contest @jr11!! Keep up the good work Steemians!! :)

"PAY IT FORWARD" My weakness in life are cats and I can not help but welcome them. But sadly I live in an apartment and there comes a time when you can not welcome more, so I try to find some owner and if they are large, I bring them food. Restime your contest so that more friends can get involved;)
Helping animals is a wonderful cause. I know someone who tries to find foster homes for cats. It is a beatufil thing to see someone share their love and try to help. Thank you so much for sharing
PAY IT FORWARD, I joined steemit a few months ago, I liked very much I was influenced thanks to a friend @elisonr13. Today we are helping more people here in Venezuela to join the platform in what way? We have spoken with many to be interested in it, and we have done a wide range of users of my small town and we are going little by little convincing more people to join steemit and participate in the contests, postscript this post has been restemeado.
I must emphasize that I feel very happy to be part of the community and be part of the steemit family. Blessings for all
Beautiful. Happy to see you're doing your best to bring people to the Steemit community. Thank you so much for joining and I wish you all the best.
Together We Build 4 is now open, feel free to join.
PAY IT FORWARD!! I am new to steemit as well and have been enjoying going through the different categories and reading what people are posting, i try to make sure that i comment and upvote things that i genuinely like to show appreciation for the work someone has put into their post.
Thank you for joining and best of luck. it takes time to learn Steemit. I do not have it all figured out myself but everyday we learn something new. Keep after it and don't worry, you will be great on here.
PAY IT FORWARD!! I appreciate this kind of post so much @jr11 as i am also a new comer in Steemit. I do like people to read my post and comments. In fact, upvoting is not what i want, but i hope others could read the articles and see if they are impressed. Keep commenting is the best action of steemian to spread our love to the others.
Thank you for sharing and for joining. best of luck to you and yes, commenting definitely helps as does voting. That is how we develop relationships on here. Best of luck
PAY IT FORWARD! I'm seeing progress gradually being with Steemit for 76 days. So far, I'm getting more motivated in making and sharing informative and inspirational contents.
@ailenepm keep up the great work and thank you for joining. best of luck.
PAY IT FORWARD!! I really wish I understand the all the principles behind this contest and many other stuffs surrounding steemit as it is pretty difficult to hit the ground running here, when you are a bit late for the party, I appreciate your gesture. may be in time you might go a bit further to help me understand the process very well. I am only wishing
Thank you and best of luck. I am happy to have you here.
I deeply appreciate your response many wouldnt or would it later than expected. I wish to win it big. I am only wishing...........lol.
PAY IT FORWARD! first of all is thank you sir for making such a great contest :D
As someone who just started here on steemit (over a week old) sometimes it does get discouraging that posts that you made and thought out for several hours are not getting noticed, and your heartfelt comments get ignored it does sometimes get me down, but giving up is not an option! My goal is to keep going and keep making posts thatll touch peoples hearts and become a more effecient writer! Discouragements and bad times helps one grow so i'll accept those and grow more as a person and a writer! 😀
Thank you and yes it can be frustrating. Remain focused and it will all start to come together for you. Best of luck and keep doing awesome things for Steemit.
You got a 1.59% upvote from @allaz courtesy of @jr11!
Pay it forward! There’s so many great nooks and cranies in the Steemit ecosystem. We are at a great point in the evolution of this platform. It stands to take off soon and the more we PAY It FORWARD, the faster and farther it’ll go.
Absolutely. Thank you for recognizing it and I wish you the best of luck.
PAY IT FORWARD!
Hi @jr11! Thanks for this initiative, I really appreciate this. Steemit is very helpful for me, it let me voice out my emotions and everything I want to share. I meet genuine people here, genuine stories to share and genuine help that people will offer. Hand in hand we build a better community. Steemit is a roadway for me to share my challenges in life. I have been depressed the past days because I learned that my mother is suffering from stage 2 cancer, I cried and I shared a poem here in steemit about how strong my mother to fight the battle of cancer. And I thank @steemitfamilyph for all the support, thank you guys your prayers really help. And also for @surpassinggoogle for upvoting my post, it really boost my morale that there are still people ready to help and support us. I will still posts many things about my journey and surely I will share the journey of my mother as cancer patient. This disease is just a tiny problem compared to our bigger God. I will always be praying for her recovery. Thanks once again for the opportunit to share. I will resteem this so people will know. Thank you and Godbless!!!☺️
@livisky I wish for your mother to have strength and for you to have strength also. I wish for her recovery and for you to seek guidance. I pray the Lord touches your mother, you, and your family. I pray the Lord gives the people taking care of her the wisdom to give her the best care. Thank you for sharing your story.
Thank you for the prayers, we really need it. Will gladly share my stories to inspire other people like what you are doing. Godbless your journey.☺️🤗

Pay it forward.
Thank you for joining and best of luck.
Thank you again for this. I have already joined a past contest and I have my "Pay it forward." message there. I'll just copy and paste it here. :)
"PAY IT FORWARD. Thank you for this opportunity! I think the best thing that I can do is to get more people into cryptocurrency. With that said, I promise not just to attract them with the profitability of getting on early but I will also encourage them to learn more about the different technologies behind crypto. It is not the profits but the technology and the people's support that will liberate us from the ailing financial system controlled by the governments."

Pay it forward. Good on you for launching this initiative. It's quite a struggle to get started so this type of assistance is very much appreciated.
Thank you, and thank you for joining. I am happy you are here. I wish you the best of luck @mrechang

Resteemed it for some visibility, good luck everybody!
Thank you so much. Appreciate the support. I wish you all the best, thank you again.
It is better to be invisible than create enemies out of people you may likely never had crossed
path with if there was no steemit. I think the sky is big enough for every eagle to fly.
Stay awesome. Steem it...
Well said and thank you.
Pay it forward I am trying to build a community #MinnowMilitia to help content creators find their target audiences and get the support they need by coming together. It is tough starting out and not everyone wants to pay for upvotes or beg followers. Upvotes should be earned. We are looking for mentors and veterans of steem to help guide us. Give the MinnowMilitia a shout out and help grow a stronger steemit. Thank you @jr11
Thank you and love your idea. Best of luck to you. Together we can make difference.
Yes indeed

Actively encourage people that I know to join the Steemit, thereby indirectly fostering its growth.
Thank you @jr11 for the opportunity to participate in this contest.
PAY IT FORWARD, Same as the last one my friend. I have been telling my university friends about steemit and encouraging them to join. I will transfer some SBD to them to help them hit the ground running and use bots early on to help them expand and grow. Because When I startd it was very hard to make those first few bucks and I wish someone would of lent me a helping hand

Pay it forward! I have only been here a short time and already I spend more time here than Facebook. This is a much better community and I love reading and seeing post from people I don't know in real life. It feels much more genuine here, Facebook seems just surface fluff.
In addition, I have been so impressed with the potential for creators that I have asked some friends that blog or are keen photographers to join. Even set up an account for one of the orchestras that I play for (@musicapoetica).
Love steemit!
Awesome news. The more we can get steemit our there and people to join the community the stronger we all will be. Thank you for sharing and best of luck.
As a beginner I have read so many post. Its one of the better post for the new comer. Such types of post really increase the inspiration of new steemit person. And believe that such types of platform can do so many things...
Thank you, and thank you for joining. Great things happen when we all work together. I wish you the best.
Pay it forward! In my personal life, I’ve made a commitment to help stock our little community food pantry this year, by picking up extra groceries for it a couple times a month. It’s amazing how many staples you can buy for the price of a bottle of wine :)
Wonderful, I love hearing this kind of stuff. Awesome job. Best of luck to you.

Pay It forward
Best stories of pay it forward are in Hawaii. Some of the villagers survive on this basic principle. In a matter of 10 minutes I saw 1 person give away what he had and receive more. He started with a pizza that was originally given to him and he immediately gave it to someone else that needed it. In a matter of minutes he was given $20 from a passerby that saw his kind act. The man then gave the $20 away to his friend that was in need. This kept happening to him several times until all the people around him had something, at that moment he was given what another pizza, so he finally took a couple slices and gave the rest to another acquaintance. It really show me the power of giving and I continue to give in the spirit of abundance for all.
Wow, beautiful. Thank you for sharing that story. I wish you the best of luck and thank you for joining.
