It's not homework, it's curiosity.

Stubborness usually means that you're being a butthead about whatever it is that your doing.
Persistence means that you will get what what you want, not always a bad thing.
Perseverance means that even when its hard you still go after it..."when the going gets tough, the tough get going"
Pursuit means that it's a goal you are reaching for and not necessarily obtaining. You are chasing after it.
Obsession means that it consumes you. It has taken over your wants and desires to take first place.
That's my opinion anyway.

when you think stubborn, you think "angry" persistence
stubbornness(adjective) is completely different from a pursuit(noun), a pursuit is something you are aiming for, stubbornness is an attitude about somthing you are aiming for... persistance is to "keep at it" and perserverance is to "keep at it no matter what"
an obsession is something you dont stop thinking about or something that you dont stop doing
