In the poem “Tipping Point,” Josh describes the moment he realized he needed to change his attitude and work harder in basketball. A tipping point in my life was when I failed a class in high school because I wasn't putting in enough effort. Similar to Josh, this moment made me realize I needed to make a change and work harder to reach my goals. This experience taught me the importance of determination and perseverance, just like Josh learns in the poem.
