She took a risk and conquered the fear and limits of her past experiences: School something…School gonna help me get out dis house. Precious found her ticket out and persevered: I try to turn away from her Mississippi self but she in the bed now pulling my chest and shoulders into her arms…I feel warm kindness from her I never feel from mama and I start to cry…I crying for me who no one never hold before. Everyday I tell myself something gonna happen…I’m gonna break through or somebody gonna break through to me - I’m gonna learn, catch up, be normal, change my seat to the front of the class. So I started thinking about what made this possible for Precious? What are some lessons that can be learned and applied? I recognized 15 factors that helped Precious overcome I hope this will inspire you to overcome your problems and inspire you to help others to do the same. However, when I read Push the second time I realized that I missed many of the hurdles and problems that Precious was able to overcome. After reading Push by Sapphire I felt like I wanted to go out and do something positive and uplifting because the novel was so intense.
