Activation is the decision to start. You activated your new journey when you committed to pursuing your True North. Persistence is the continued effort toward a goal even though obstacles may exist. I have a goal of doing three hundred burpees every morning. Sometimes I don’t feel like doing them, so I make a decision to start and then ten turns into twenty. Twenty turns into fifty, and so on. As long as I persist, I will finally reach my goal. Intensity is the focus and energy that goes into pursuing a goal.
