Push

You have to push through every difficulty to achieve the goal.

You know how people sometimes say to you, "KNOCK IT OFF!! YOU'RE REALLY STARTING TO PUSH MY BUTTONS!!!" and they seem all angry about it? They aren't angry at all. If they have buttons, they must be a robot and robots can't be angry, so don't worry about it.

And if they say, "KNOCK IT OFF!! YOU'RE REALLY STARTING TO PUSH MY BELLY BUTTON!!!" and they seem all angry about it, a good way to calm them down is to take a deep breath and tell them what Mom always used to say to us growing up -- "It's not a belly button, it's a navel."

That should do it.
