SAY CHEESE-u get eat. Review on Who Moved My Cheese? - Dr Spencer Johnson

Ponder over this for a moment.Are you ready to anticipate change in your life,adapt to change quickly,enjoy change and be ready to change quickly ,again and again?? If your answer is '' NO ''....then..hmmm..get hold of this book.

''Who Moved My Cheese?''---by Dr Spencer Johnson,Kenneth Blanchard

is a simple story that talks about four characters Sniff,Scurry,Hem and Haw.

It takes off with a group of friends meeting up after their high school reunion. One of the friends begins to tell the story of ''Who Moved My Cheese?'' and at that point the author begins to describe, symbolically, the manner in which so many people in this world deal with change in their lives.

It is a story about how two mice 'Sniff and Scurry' and two little men 'Hem and Haw ' who look for cheese in a maze.

Sniff seeks out changes early and Scurry plunges into action. The two little men in the parable ,as I said earlier,are Hem and Haw. Hem denies and resists change because he fears that something worse will happen. Haw learns to adapt in time when he sees that change can lead to something better. Throughout the book these four characters search through the maze, eventually getting lost.

The cheese can be anything you treasure in life ......and for some people it will just be something they're used to in life. The cheese can be a job, a relationship, an organization, or even the world we live in. The story is about how we adapt to change in our lives, and it sets out to alter our thinking of change. The main character in the story, ''Haw'' learns to laugh at himself when he realizes that he'd made a mistake by becoming too dependent on his cheese and unwilling to move on.

After the story, the friends take some time to discuss its meaning. One of the most insightful parts of the narrative is when they realize that they can apply these principles to their personal lives.

The book is very simple and makes a great point. As you read this book you will probably start relating the different characters in the book to people that you know, and how they react to change.

Check out this book...if you havn't..you are missing something.

I completed reading it in straight 45 minutes....but this book is meant to be read again and again ,for the simple reason that it deals with the issue of change and laziness. I simply loved reading it.Good one.

Anyways...do post your views on this and let me how did you like it.
