Definition
气魄 combines boldness of spirit with an imposing, grand manner — it can describe a person's character (daring and commanding) or the scale of a building/design. 魄力 (pò lì) focuses narrowly on decisiveness in action, while 气势 (qì shì) is about the outward aura or momentum of a scene, group, or thing. 气魄 has a stronger inner, personal quality.
