undaunted
Not at all discouraged
Undaunted means not discouraged or intimidated by difficulty, danger, or disappointment.
Someone undaunted by setbacks keeps going: Undaunted by the rejection, she submitted her manuscript to another publisher.
The word suggests resilience and refusal to be deterred—continuing with spirit intact despite obstacles that might reasonably cause someone to give up.
