Effort

努力 (doryoku)

The Japanese word 努力 means "Effort" or "Exertion" and is composed of the kanji 努 (read do) meaning "as much as possible, toil" and 力 (read ryoku) meaning "power; strength; exertion."

Doryoku is used, especially in the Martial Arts, to mean giving one's very best effort.

Verify: 努力 in the Japanese-English Dictionary

This art is a motivational reminder to always demand the very best of oneself and to always give one's best effort.
