Who Moved My Cheese........

I read this book in the last April. The beautifully written book about the psychology of the human beings to fear and resist change. It is parable that takes place in maze. Four beings living in that maze are Sniff and Scurry- mice who are nonanalytical and not able to judge the situation well. They just want cheese and willing to do whatever it takes to get it. They are not prepared to imagine even that cheese can run out. The other two are Hem and Haw who have entirely different perspective about the cheese. Cheese is something in this story which is related to our livelihoods-our society,our jobs,our career paths and the workplaces and it can stand for anything from health, beauty, relationships. The point is that we have to be prepared and judgmental about the changes in the cheese and foresight to handle the situation if cheese runs out. This parable is used many times in the management classes, churches, business places to talk about change.
