Answer:
Lennie was born with a disability and he has obstacles, here are his ways of overcoming them
Explanation: Lennie doesn't necesarily know that he has internal and external conflicts, so he really just does what he wants. This shouldn't be considered a bad thing, but to "overcome" an obstacle, he really displays being gentle rather than agressive because of his rather large figure. What he does is stroke soft things for example. He loves touching things because of his urge to explore. :)
