00:00Patience is the key to success

00:14What is wrong Tofu?

00:16I don't want to go to school today.

00:18Jim and Jerry took all the tokens I had collected

00:22for the charity and submitted it as their own.

00:25Now they are going to win the appreciation sticker.

00:29Don't worry about it, Tofu.

00:31Sometimes it's okay to let go of things

00:34and just hold on to the joy they brought you.

00:37I don't know, Tia.

00:39Do you know a nice story to help me believe?

00:43Sure, I'll tell you a story.

00:55Once upon a time, a poor farmer was ploughing his field.

01:02When he hit something hard, it was a large metal pot.

01:12What's this? A metal pot?

01:15I wonder if there is something more valuable underneath.

01:20In the hope that the pot will be of some use to him

01:23In the hope that he could find something more valuable

01:27the farmer dug deeper and wider.

01:36Tired after hours of searching, the farmer decided to rest.

01:41He left his spade in the pot

01:48and lay down under the tree.

01:53He was relieved that the pot was empty.

02:09A while later, when he got up

02:13and went back to the pot

02:20he was surprised.

02:23It is full of hundreds of spades.

02:25I had left only one in it.

02:29Looks like this is a magical pot.

02:33Let me see what will happen if I put a mango in it.

02:53And just as the farmer had thought,

02:55the one mango turned into hundreds of mangoes when he left it in the pot.

03:01This is truly a magical pot.

03:04I will take it home and use it as my kitchen.

03:09I'll see what will happen.

03:23Let's use it to tide over our troubles.

03:28The farmer went home and hid the pot at a safe place.

03:34He then went to the market and sold the mangoes.

03:38He earned a handsome sum for them.

03:43On the way back, he brought some grains.

03:47He went home and put each one of them in the pot one by one.

04:09Soon he had enough of grains to last his family for a long time.

04:16The farmer called his wife

04:21and told her everything that had happened.

04:47This is a blessing.

04:48We should use it wisely to become rich, but also keep it safely hidden.

04:55The farmer agreed with his wife.

05:01Over the year, he slowly started putting things in the pot.

05:05Fruits, vegetables, rice, and milk.

05:11in the pot – fruits, vegetables, textiles.

05:21And in some years, he turned around his family's fortune.

05:26Though they had been secretive and very careful about their magic pot

05:30people started noticing how they had become rich.

05:34And soon their secret was out.

05:39It even reached the king's ears.

05:51Such a powerful magical pot should be a part of the king's treasury.

05:56The farmer has no right to keep it.

05:58Only I have the right to own that pot.

06:02The king ordered the soldier to bring the pot to the palace.

06:11The soldier stormed into the farmer's home.

06:21And he threw the pot into the river.

06:23And confiscated the pot.

06:28They brought it to the king.

06:31Let me see what is inside the pot that makes it so magical.

06:35Once I find what it is, I will become a hundred times more powerful.

06:42The king peered over the pot and looked into it.

06:45As he did, he lost his balance and fell into the river.

06:50As he fell, he hit his head on the edge of the pot and became unconscious.

06:57When he woke up, he saw that there were hundreds of kings like him.

07:08They all fought each other to get to the throne.

07:14And died.

07:15Soon the news reached the farmer and his wife.

07:19Should we get the pot back now?

07:22The king was foolish and his curiosity killed him.

07:25But it is not safe to keep the pot anymore.

07:29We have enough money and riches to take care of us and our many next generations.

07:37Let us leave the pot within the king's house.

07:40Let us leave the pot within the king's treasury.

07:44Oh, thank you, Tia.

07:46That was indeed an inspiring story.

07:49And I feel much better now letting go of those tokens.

07:55Good to know that, Tofu.

07:57Now will you please finish your cereal so that we can go?
