"Hey there, my fur-tastic
friends! Welcome back to The
Monkey the Cat Podcast! IâmMonkey, your favorite talking
cat, and todayâs episode is hereto remind you of something very
importantâsomething to rememberwhen you feel stuck, frustrated,
or ready to give up.
Our lesson today?
Every problem has at least onesolution.
(00:30):
That means no matter how tricky,tangled, or totally bananas a
problem might seem, thereâsalways a way forward.
You might have to thinkcreatively, ask for help, or try
a few different ideasâbut asolution is out there.
And I discovered that whiletrying to rescue⌠a squeaky toy
from the top of the fridge.""Itall started when Teddyâs
(00:51):
favorite squeaky ball bouncedoff the hallway wall
andâboink!âlanded right on topof the fridge.
Brooklyn tried jumping for it.
No luck.
Teddy barked up at it.
Still no luck.
Olivff muttered,âYouâre going toneed a ladder.
Or wings.â I puffed out mychest.
âDonât worryâIâll get it down.âI stacked boxes.
(01:12):
Slipped.
I tried climbing cabinets.
Fell off.
I even asked Max the parrot toknock it down, but he just
laughed and said,âToo squeakyfor me!â We were starting to
think the ball was gone forever.
But then Dadâour wiseteacherâwalked by and said,
âRemember, Monkey (01:29):
every problem
has at least one solution.
You just havenât found yoursyet.â So we regrouped.
We stopped rushing.
We started thinking.""We made aplan:â
Olivf drew a diagram of
the kitchen.
â
Teddy pushed over a footstool.
â
Brooklyn held it steady withher nose.
â
I climbed up with a woodenspoon taped to a broom handleâŚ
(01:51):
and plop! Down came the squeakyball! Cheers, barks, purrs, and
one very loud squeak followed.
And in that moment, I realizedsomething BIG: We didnât give
up.
We didnât blame the problem.
We looked for a solution untilwe found one.
Sometimes the first idea wonâtwork.
Or even the second.
(02:12):
But if you believe a solution isout thereâand you keep
tryingâyouâll find it.
Every time." What We LearnedTodayđšThereâs always a way
forwardâyou just have to keeplooking.
đšProblems might feel impossibleat first, but creative thinking
leads to answers.
đšWorking together helps you seemore options.
(02:33):
đšEven when you're stuck, remindyourself:âThere is a solution.
I just haven't found it yet.â"Sohereâs my challenge for YOU
today (02:40):
Take a problem youâre
facing and brainstorm at least
three possible solutions.
â
Could you ask for help?
â
Could you break it into smallersteps?
â
Could you try a new angle or acreative tool(maybe even a spoon
taped to a broom)?
Because once you believe thereâsa way⌠your brain starts finding
(03:02):
it.
