Day 7 of 31: Hey Alanis, let's solve this spoon problem...

Yo, VIP-

Let's kick it.


Today will be short & sweet.


Because

if there was a problem

Yo, I'll solve it

Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it


We've got another case to solve, so today we're bringin' in the brain power of Vanilla and his Ice. Ready to kick it, VIP ?


Good. I knew we could count on you.


I'd like to start with something I've had on my mind since '96.

In my humble opinion, I tend to think Alanis confuses irony with unfortunate circumstances...


And isn't it ironic?

Don't you think?


What Alanis has is problems.


I don't know what restaurant she's in, but

here are the facts:

  • There is a black fly in her chardonnay.

  • She has 10,000 spoons.

  • No knife.

You know what we do with problems?


That's right, Vanilla.

Yo- We Solve them.

  • STOP

  • SHIFT

  • SEEK to SOLVE

STOP the negative thought pattern.

SHIFT your focus. Recognize that yes, you DO have problems, but you also have choices.

SEEK SOLUTIONS: I don't know what you would choose, but Vanilla & I are about to do this:

Take ONE SPOON,

scoop out the fly,

flip it around & use the handle to butter the bread.


Problems solved.


And isn't it obvious?

Don't you think?


Now, Kindly ask the server for some

Ice water, baby.

doo-doo-doo-doodoodoodoo

Vanilla Ice, ice baby...
