Tenacity
te·nac·i·ty
noun
the quality or fact of being able to grip something firmly; grip.
the quality or fact of being very determined; determination.
the quality or fact of continuing to exist; persistence.

At the very least, I can learn that its okay to be tenacious for myself. What’s your intention?
