---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Personal encouragement is a Soka Gakkai tradition. Because we have put great energy into personally visiting and encouraging members, there are capable people working for kosen-rufu all around the world today. I have also made every effort to meet with members individually and offer them wholehearted encouragement.
"Don't worry that you may not be an eloquent speaker. Just persevere with a positive spirit. Remember, you are carrying out the noble work of the Buddha. All of your present efforts are part of your training to become a fine leader. The struggles you undertake each day to visit a member or meet with someone to talk about Buddhism enables you to deepen your life and to shine with good fortune and benefit." (Brief encouragement, March 23, 2014)
