Just pursue the thought unceasingly. Step by step you will achieve realization, for all your faculties and powers become directed to that end.

You can do an activity. Activities are steps along the way to a goal. Let's say you desire security. Putting $10.00 in the bank or talking to your stockbroker about your investment plans are activities that will move you toward your goal.
