- Who Moved my Cheese by Spencer Johnson
“The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry.” Robert Burns
Life doesn’t always turn out the way we think it will. When change happens, a lot of us have a natural tendency to resist that change. Why? Simply put, we are afraid of change. Change represents the unknown which challenges our sense of safety and security.
Who Moved my Cheese? is a very simple story about change. It’s about seeing change, anticipating change, and adapting to change. Now, that sounds incredibly boring, but luckily the author, Spencer Johnson, has put a cool little twist on a boring topic and has interwoven the lessons of change into the story of 4 characters: 2 mice named Sniff and Scurry and 2 little people (the same size as mice) named Hem and Haw.
These 4 characters represent parts of us - they represent the simple and complex within each of us. As Spencer put it: “Sometimes we may act like Sniff who sniffs out change early, or Scurry who scurries into action, or Hem who denies and resists change as he fears it will lead to something worse, or Haw who learns to adapt in time when he sees changing can lead to something better!”

Progress is impossible without CHANGE. If you want something you have never had, then you have got to do something you have never done 🖖

Funny. I sent this summary to a friend because this book has helped me in my early years. I didn't realize that it was me who needed to hear it again.
Thanks for the wonderful animation,it's great.
Me too

Only constant in the world is change! A very important message, delivered so well in 12 minutes. Love the animation, love the clear and succinct commentary.
Thank you very much! Glad you liked it :)

Hi..
Who move my cheese e-books available very cheapest price,kindly contact.
In the past 21 years this book has changed me and my perspective towards my fellow beings
I took a college course that the professor had us read this book. It opened my eyes and my life has been blessed because of this knowledge.
Thank you for summarizing this in a digestible way quickly. ❤
Pursuit of the Unknown, never limit G! Law of Attraction PLUS SIZED!!!
My business was going well for the past 3 years, then Elon ruined it.
Basically he moved my cheese.
I reacted like Hem at first, now I'm embracing my inner Haw and accepted that the cheese is gone, it's time to find new cheese, and I'm trying my best to remain hopeful and optimistic about the new possibilities.
Good luck and hang in there Alvin!
Who who moved my cheese is an absolute management classic
Agreed! Such a short little book too! I love how it's not boring either
@@wisdom-for-life ❤️
I read this book every 5 years and get something new out of it each time!
1. Never give your old cheese away in anticipation of finding new cheese.
2. Never turn down cheese offered to you, even if you already have too much.
3. Never turn down cheese offered to you just because you've never seen that kind before and have no idea what to do with it.
4. When someone brings unfamiliar cheese to you, your response should be "I've done this many times".
5. Don't let anyone else know you've found some cheese.
6. Don't share your cheese.Cheese can go away at any time without notice, hence #5.
7. Cheese can go bad at any time. When this happens, disregard #5 and go ahead and share your cheese. An added benefit of this is that it will appear as if you're finding cheese for others and you'll be a hero.
8. Do not ask for tools (e.g. software, or a computer that is at least as fast as the secretary's) that will help you bring in new cheese.
9. Do not expect your management to find you cheese. You are expected to find the cheese.
10. Be careful. Just because it looks like cheese and/or smells like cheese, it may not actually be cheese.
11. If you run out of cheese you'll be assigned to do self-assessments until you learn not to run out of cheese.
12. The self-assessments will take all of your time so you will not be able to look for new cheese.
13. Did you ever think that maybe they keep moving the cheese because they don't want you to find it?
✨
Thank you!
I'm so confused...
I read the book as one of the recommended books for my Master in Special Education over 10years ago! But this animated video of the book makes the book more simpler and succinctly summarized! Thanks for this good work!
Thanks Eunice!
This is a video that totally disregards any 'calculated risk' just go out and get new 'cheese". Thats not how it works.
At the end of the video I mentioned that I didn’t agree with the book on everything. The cautious person who doesn’t adapt to every change right away is a good thing. You have change agents (the mice in this case) and you have the ones who won’t change at all (those people don’t grow). But then you have the people that eventually adapt to change. The mice take a huge risk chasing new cheese. Agreed!
The ones that take a while to adapt may miss out on new opportunities but they also provide stability to the whole system.
The book is very simple and doesn’t dive into these intricacies. But I do think it was intended to be this way because change is extremely challenging for some so the author wanted to keep it simple and straightforward.
spoiler alert: hem is dead of hunger :D. keep doing what your doing man, your CHANGING lives for the better!!!!!
Credit Of the story goes to the writer of course, but i was very happy by the way you made this summary. Thank you!
I love your short version of this book.
I remember reading this book almost 20 years ago. It made little sense then. 😢 Now the lessons are crystal clear. 😮
As a good buddy of mine recently said, “We all mature at different points in our lives.” 😊😅
Thomas Edison would NOT change. !! He tried over 200 failed filaments for his light bulbs before he found one that other people deemed worthwhile. Did Thomas Edison appear to be just like Hem ??? How many friends and family abandoned him for crazy ????????
Thomas Edison had to make some changes every time to achieve the light bulbs!
@nicolas right! Kenny doesn't get it
Edison didn't try the same thing over and over again he changed the next experiment with the knowledge he gained from the previous failures.
Hem woukd be like why isn't this formula not working and keep on doing the same formula without understanding what went wrong , being stubborn .
Kenny stop
A clever metaphor for adapting to change and direction to achieve what you want from life whether it be your personal life or in the workplace.
Really annoyed..someone actually moved my cheese from my office fridge..bastards.🤬
:D
I read the book years ago. (like 30). You did an outstanding job making it interesting and to the point. Well done. Thanks!
Hi do u have instagram
A wonderful animated summary delivering some great lessons for life !
"Smell the cheese often so you know when it is getting old" 🦉
this is such a great video summary! you put out great contents all the time and thank you!
Thanks Lily, I appreciate your constant support! :)
Plenty of cheese will be moved in this decade. Many will not be able or willing to adjust, others will. Then there are those capable of moving the cheese.
We're on the road
We move from place to place
And oftentimes when I'm about to call it home
We'd have to move along
Life is a constant change
The friends we know we meet along the way
Too soon the times we share form part of yesterday
'Cause life's a constant change
And nothing stays the same, oh, no
Clouds that move across the skies
Are changing form before our very eyes
Why couldn't we keep time from movin' on?
Hold on to all the years before this moment's gone?
Why must we live the days at such a frightening pace?
We're all like clouds that move across the skies
And changing form before our very eyes
Have we outgrown our Peter Pans and wings?
We've simply grown too old for tales of knights and kings
'Cause life's a constant change
And nothing stays the same
Oh, no
Its too good
Change is in the air... Thank you!
Trrruuuee! Thanks for stopping by Leila
I lived in a unstable childhood but with great parents. We moved all the time and lots of changes happened so it lead me to have my excitement towards change and one of my mottos
“Treat life like a blackjack deck, don’t judge you next hand by your last”
I then had a nervous breakdown that filled me with anxiety. Now every change and next move freeze me. Have spent the last six years trying to reach me old mindset and slowly getting less scared of being in the world.
I learned about Who Moved My Cheese? at my last job where the executive team got a 5 year client contract. Believe that change can help you. Instead of sleeping late tomorrow, I am going to change my routine to find something better. *******This management classic is also taught in college courses. Don't be scared and adapt to change with this 2020 pandemic.
Thank you, it was great listening to the review. I enjoyed and learnt a lot. A request if possible: Please try to be a bit slow in speaking.
Great book and you're visual is spot on!
Fantastic summary of Who Moved My Cheese?
Watching this for business class
Nothing changes if nothing changes
Great job here...thank you, I have read the book, but needed a refresher...thanks!! Happy New Year and Have the Best New Year Ever!!!
Lol my boss gave the whole department a talk on this book with PowerPoint back in 2003 a week before the layoff started.
Kind of him
FSR said you have nothing to fear but fear itself.......
Excellent break down of the book!
Thank you for commenting. Glad you enjoyed the video!
all praise tzeentch god of Change!
7:58 There is no evidence in the story to think the little people are smarter. Great video! 👍
True that.. I was paraphrasing the author
Although, Smarter does not always mean wiser 😁
Great reminder of this book and its message especially now with the COVID pandemic. The future is still uncertain as the cheese keeps moving in the maze.
I was given this book when I worked for a major Gas Company. It has stayed with me in my heart for over 20 years. I think it's a very valuable book to give to employees who are not willing to change to give themselves a chance to think and also to those who you think might make better Management in the future. Luckily, I was one of the ones that they expected to become management (and have always been, since then). Had I not chosen to seek out my cheese, I would not be where I am today.
Yo mother trucker that's NotYoChz! 🧀🧀
I must be naive, because although in general terms I may agree with the philosophy sustaining this principle . I also believe that you need a certain energy if not ambition to do that. At the age of 70 for example, you have a moderately quiet and comfortable life should one revolutionize his existence in search of the unreachable or the unattainable? Can someone comfort with an educated opinion or advice. Thnx
Thanks to all. In spite of the fact that most of the arguments are valid, pertinent, and true. They don't necessarily conflict with the idea That one can live in complete serenity without feeling the need to update his game in order to blend in an environment that is alien to him/her
The wheel... the wheel hasn't changed it thousands of years but, we have changed the way we use it like the wheel of a cart is now the wheel that powers a conveyor belt or the wind will is a water turbine or a gyro in a guidance system.
Excellent food for thought! Let's embrace Change... Thank you so much!
Thank you for the videos. i truly appreciate it, informative and inspirational. pls post more videos like this and the 7habits. been watching it on repeat. thanks again!
Hi
Who move my cheese ebook available very cheapest price, kindly contact.
An excellent summary of a classic book. We have two choices. Believe that change will harm us or believe that change will help us. The latter gives us more power.
Thanks! And thanks for dropping some knowledge!
Hi
Who move my cheese ebook available very cheapest price, kindly contact.
Does it really? I think this 12 min video shows that mankind is going down a path of destruction. To see change as something good is a false statement. To remove ones human emotions and beliefs is to lower ones self to mice searching for cheese. Who makes the decision of what should change and when? Why doesnt this video point out that important peace of information. We are human beings made by god and our emotions and beliefs and faith are what we must never loose else we will turn into rats looking for cheese.
Religion teaches us that life is not a maze but rather an open field. And where we are all going, there is cheese waiting for all.
Yes, there is cheese at the end of this life... 100%
When we die, we find out who/what we really are
Your drawing very nice beautiful
Your explanation was EXCELLENT!!!!
THANKS for being so accurate!!!
Good way to dissect and animate the life lesson
Can you please give pdf for this work?
Hi

I guess I'm a bit of a Haw, I have worked with so many people in municipal government that will change poorly or just for the sake of it. I am cautious. I will adapt and even embrace the change once it is communicated well or pass a proof of concept.
this helped my daughter
Good to hear! Thanks for commenting Sheun!
Di not wait to scream "Who Move My Cheese"
Nicely done!
That was awesome interpretation and defining 🙌🏽🤞🏽🤝🤝🤝Thank you for posting as well 👍
Hey, Thanks for this Video. Really liking your content :)
Just wanted to know what's the average RPM of your channel?
Thats a good book, with some great msg. The video is giving out the messages in a very simple way. I am sure just like reading the book, if we refer to hr video again it will keep giving out the messages always. Thanks.
I have read the book, but it didn't stay in my collection when I moved, so I need to recollect it. Great animation, and explained concisely. Thank you 😊.
Thank you so much! It's much more easier for me to write reflection about this movie. Your explanation video help me a lot.
Love your animation and great job simplifying the summary!
This is utterly satanic
Lol
just finished reading the book! Thank you for this video!
One of the best have read! The animation version makes it clearer. Thank you
Wow, this was amazing!
Loved it! It totally broadened my perspective & yes, I surely laughed at myself😂
Ndim lowo...That time that book was issued by management at work boma last week...😎😎😎
Thanks for the video!!!
Timely reminder for me! Thanks for the succinct summary! :)
Wow explained so well ❤
Thanks you made the main points of the book really clear.
This channel is a blessing for mankind
Thank You
Go shawny
Change is the rule of nature, nature changes slowly people's changes rapidly. Keep changing your self.
Thanks for dropping a comment !
Thank you for the review, I really enjoyed it. Haven’t read this book in YEARS!!!!❤
About to grab one
Idk why you would want to buy a book and or read it when you can look up the summaries online .😂 I swear books are scams. Their main points can be summarized into 5 pages but they stretch it out to 100-300 pages. Also the average person isn’t as stupid as hem and haw.
Way too simplistic. Not as valuable as you might think. The world is full of people with various strengths and weaknesses. I'm sure there are a lot of autistic people out there who are resistant to change. Like Temple Grandin said, we need them. But what I am really saying is, you can't make people less resistant to change by name-calling, in this case "Hem" and "Haw."
I agree that we need the anchors as well. I mentioned that briefly at the end (my opinion vs the book).
Thank you
This vid is incredible tbh
COVID 19 changed my life completely but I need to made a great effort to adopt my life🙏🙏
Another thought provoking video. Thanks!
Thanks! :D
Read this book 18ish years ago. And just bought 2 copies to give to friends. Eye opening. This video sums much of book up and is truly life changing
My character is:
- Well here is the change: i go with it.
- Change: ok i damage you so will never be feel happy ever and you will have anxiety and depression.
- Me: well, i'm less fucked with these illnesses than i was in my previous workplace.
Listen to "Changes" by David Bowie after watching this! XD
It's fitting and cute!
Thank you for this beautiful summary🥰
I love so much this book
Thanks Gh RT!
I LOVE that book! Since I am a visual person, this artistic rendering of stories is one of my favorite ways to learn. Thank you!
WOW that's great news thanks 😊😊

I like it. I have that problem of fear
New-agey bullshit.
I don't think he would have laugh of his folly if he was old enough to being late at every scarce job opportunity, left with crumbs. You don't always get better if you change. Sometimes you are just too late (even if you are 40 years old).
You're never too late...
I’m 40 and got an offer to leave my job. My current employer scrambled and gave me a counter offer. I was their cheese and they were afraid that it might be gone. Nice win for me.
9:53 I miss the character of my boss:
Sees opportunity for change, let's call it Trend. Forces change even if it does not lead to something better.
good one!
Thanks! Hey, I have a twin.
who is the better character who ? I have a quiz
I love Thanksgiving, too!!! We all have so much to be thankful for and Thanksgiving is just looked over and Halloween just takes over.
well said.. nice vidz easy to understand .. Change will adopt if a person feel comfortable
I left a boss who refused change because it hindered my career growth. I like to sniff and seek opportunities.
Thank you so so much! This summary was great, you taught me a lot and even saved me 11 Euro :)
