根気 It is a Japanese word composed of two Kanji characters: 根 (ne) which means "root" or "base" and 気 (ki) that can be translated as "spirit" or "will". Together, these characters form the word that can be translated as "perseverance", "patience" or "persistence". The etymology of the word can be tracked to the EDO period (1603-1868), when the Bushido culture (samurai code of conduct) was on the rise in Japan. The idea of ​​perseverance and persistence was highly valued among the samurai, who believed that these qualities were essential to achieving victory in battle and overcoming obstacles in life. Nowadays, the word 根気 is still often used in Japan, both in everyday life and business and education. It is often associated with the idea of ​​working hard and not giving up easily, regardless of the challenges that may arise.
