-- TO MY FRIENDS --
One by one, one after another,
let's help our new members to unlock their potential.
Let's do our very best to support these new people
so that they discover their hidden talents,
abilities and strengths!
The very first step towards fostering capable leaders
is to truly believe in their possibilities,
regardless of what their circumstances might be right now.
