"Hey there, friends! It’s me, Monkey the Talking Cat!
Have you ever tried something really hard… like learning a tricky math problem or riding a bike without training wheels… and thought, “I’m just not good at this!”
Well, today, we’re going to talk about something that can change the way you think about those tough moments.
It’s called a growth mindset—and trust me, it’s more powerful than a cat with a tuna launcher!"

Hey there, friends! It’s me, Monkey the Talking Cat! Have you ever tried something really hard… like learning a tricky math problem or riding a bike without training wheels… and thought,“I’m just not good at this!” Well, today, we’re going to talk about something that can change the way you think about those tough moments. It’s called a growth mindset—and trust me, it’s more powerful than a cat with a tuna launcher!" Today's first lesson: You’re not“bad” at something—you’re just not there yet."A few weeks ago, I tried to climb the tallest tree in the backyard. Brooklyn the Lab barked,“You’ve got short legs, Monkey!” And yeah—I fell on the first try… and the second… and, okay, the third too. But I kept trying. And I reminded myself, I just haven’t figured it out YET. By day five? I was in the top branch eating a snack with the squirrels!" Next lesson: Your brain grows when things are hard."Did you know your brain is kind of like a muscle? Every time you struggle, sweat, and even fail—it gets stronger. So the next time a spelling word trips you up, or a puzzle drives you bananas— say to yourself,“This challenge is helping my brain grow!” It's not magic—it's science!" And the last lesson: Mistakes aren’t bad—they’re proof you’re learning."I used to get really upset when I made mistakes. Like, one time, I accidentally wrote my name on Brooklyn’s report card. Oops. But Mom, who’s an accountant and never forgets a number, said,“Monkey, mistakes are how we learn what to do better next time.” Now, I see every mistake as a mini teacher.""So what’s a growth mindset? It’s believing that your abilities aren’t stuck—they grow when you try. It’s saying“not yet” instead of“I can’t.” It’s knowing that every challenge is a chance to get better.""And if you remember that, even the biggest mountains won’t seem so tall. Because you’re not just learning—you’re growing.""And who knows? You might even outgrow me. But until then, let’s keep climbing… one paw at a time."
