Who Moved My Cheese by Spencer Johnson



Who Moved My Cheese is a simple parable that reveals profound truths about change. It's an 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 – whether it is a good job, a loving relationship, money, a possession, health, or spiritual peace of mind.

The "Maze” is where you look for what you want – the organization you work in, or the family or community you live in.

The story's four characters, two Mice and two Little people, represent parts of all of us regardless of our age, gender, race or nationality. We all share something in common - A need to find our way in The Maze and succeed in changing times!

The characters are faced with unexpected change. Eventually, one of them deals with it successfully, and writes what he has learned from his experience on the maze walls. When you come to see “The Handwriting on the Wall,” you can discover for yourself how to deal with change, so that you can enjoy less stress and more success (however you define it) in your work and in your life.

Who Moved My Cheese is written for all ages. If you listen to the CD, the story takes a little over an hour to listen to, but its unique insights can last a lifetime.
