Ok, this is what I think.

Through practice, training etc, a person can cultivate endurance & persistence in specific activities. Those attributes of endurance and persistence, however, don't necessarily carry over into other activities.

Eg X may have a lot of endurance for running but not necessarily for solving complex maths equations. Y may have the endurance for solving complex maths equations, but not for running etc.
