-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let us not weaken our resolve to achieve our targets!
Being proactive has the effect of doubling our momentum!
Let's challenge our goals with with all our might.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
It's foolish to let oneself be swayed by life's uncertainties, feeling joy one minute, despair the next. Just resolve to dedicate your life to kosen-rufu no matter what and spend your life confidently committed to your mission. Never forget that beautiful flowers of happiness bloom forth where there are solid roots of perseverance and effort.
