Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----

"As John Dewey once wrote: 'Success means succeeding, getting forward, moving in advance. It is an active process, not a passive outcome.' This is identical to the spirit of the SGI. Though one may seem to have attained success for the moment, one will start to regress the instant one becomes careless and ceases making effort, beginning a slide towards defeat. As we all know, not advancing is retreating. Those who are continually pressing ahead are genuinely successful. Success, victory, and happiness are all to be found in moving forwards. Let's keep advancing with firm determination.

"Not once have I thought of retreat."
