All Out
Noun and な adjective
いっしょうけんめい
遅れを取り戻すために一生懸命働かなくてはいけないのは分かっているんですが、中々難しいです。
I know I have to work my hardest to catch up with everyone, but it’s difficult.
You have only one life so do everything with lots of eagerness (懸命). Do everything with all one's might. Go all out.
Everything except the 生 uses the readings you learned with the kanji. To remember 生 as しょう, think of how you are running your own Broadway show (しょう), and you're doing it with all one's might (your might). You're going all out.
