“Haw said, „Sometimes, Hem, things change and they are never the same again. This looks like one of those times. That’s life! Life moves on. And so should we.”

The book is about how to deal with change in your life. The characters are four mice who live in a maze and their cheese is always in the same spot. One day, the cheese moves and the mice have to learn to deal with the change.

„Who Moved My Cheese?“ is a simple parable that reveals profound truths.

It is the amusing and enlightening story of four characters who live in a maze and look for cheese to nourish them and make them happy. Cheese is a metaphor for what you want to have in life, for example, a good job, a loving relationship, money or possessions, health or spiritual peace of mind. The maze is where you look for what you want, perhaps the organization you work in, or the family or community you live in. The problem is that the cheese keeps moving.

In the story, the characters are faced with unexpected changes in their search for the cheese. One of them eventually deals with change successfully and writes what he has learned on the maze walls for you to discover. You’ll learn how to anticipate, adapt to and enjoy change and be ready to change quickly whenever you need to.
