Futō fukutsu
Unbending, unbroken.
Japanese four-character idiom
This expression describes determination that does not give way in the face of difficulty. Both halves reinforce the idea of refusing to be discouraged.
Language note: 不撓 (ふとう / futō) means unyielding; 不屈 (ふくつ / fukutsu) means indomitable. The reading is futō, with a long ō.
What small step would help you keep going?
