- 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 🖖

Thank you for summarizing this in a digestible way quickly. ❤

True if the change in question is a matter of survival..

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
I read this book every 5 years and get something new out of it each time!
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.
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.
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

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!
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.
Excellent food for thought! Let's embrace Change... Thank you so much!
Love your animation and great job simplifying the summary!
A wonderful animated summary delivering some great lessons for life !
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?

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. 😮

Change is in the air... Thank you!

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.
Thanks you made the main points of the book really clear.
This channel is a blessing for mankind
Beautiful and well put.
Thanks for the video!!!
Change is the rule of nature, nature changes slowly people's changes rapidly. Keep changing your self.
Thanks for dropping a comment !
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 😊.
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!
Bro it's a great story. You put it very well. Its a great story and it puts you in your in your place. And it's so true that's the point. Its a children's story but impacts us all... Ty
Good way to dissect and animate the life lesson
Wow, this was amazing!
Nicely done!
Thank you for the review, I really enjoyed it. Haven’t read this book in YEARS!!!!❤
About to grab one
just finished reading the book! Thank you for this video!
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.
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 😁
Thank you for useful content!
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 break down of the book!
Thank you for commenting. Glad you enjoyed the video!
spoiler alert: hem is dead of hunger :D. keep doing what your doing man, your CHANGING lives for the better!!!!!
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.
Nothing changes if nothing changes
Very well done and explained.
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.
Watching this for business class
Love it. Thanks.
Fantastic summary of Who Moved My Cheese?
Another thought provoking video. Thanks!
Thanks! :D
Great I'll have to get book.
Changes is constant and you do have to adapt.
Thanks
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 love Thanksgiving, too!!! We all have so much to be thankful for and Thanksgiving is just looked over and Halloween just takes over.
Great summary thanks!
Thank you
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
Thank You
Hey, Thanks for this Video. Really liking your content :)

Ang ganda ngpagkakagawa ng video! Salamat @wisdom for Life!
wonderful
Thank you so so much! This summary was great, you taught me a lot and even saved me 11 Euro :)
A good reminder
I was sniff/scurry till 22 then became Hem and am using this to continue my transition into Haw ! This helped so much !!
...isn't sniff and scurry supposed to be better than Hem?
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.
i"m here before bts dropped their new album or song next year (just to make sure I have a little insight about it)
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.
ty I needed this for an essay, I have ADHD and the audio books are all in robot voices.
yikes! Hope you can find a hard copy. It's a very short read
Respect 👌✌️
good one!
Thanks! Hey, I have a twin.
Di not wait to scream "Who Move My Cheese"
Jump into action love change
Haw later went on to become the face of the company at Life is Good
I read the book today and while searching for Book Summary, i found your video. It was well designed in a visual way to create ever lasting impression. Many Thanks for your contribution towards the society. May i know what software you used to create this animation content ? Thanks a lot.
Thank you. Yes, videoscribe is the software I use.
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
I remember being a 13 year old reading who moved my cheese. I was too young to understand what management was but I could understand the lessons in it. Today, 7 years later I came back to this somehow. I am a biotech engineer hoping to move into management. In retrospect, I do see my child self reading and gathering management skills. I am glad I was an avid reader and perhaps the reason I remember the story is because of the author's efforts into making it interesting enough for a 13 year old. Loved this summary! Thank you!
" biotech engineer" at 20 years old? I doubt it.
Your drawing very nice beautiful
Yo mother trucker that's NotYoChz! 🧀🧀
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!
The Ordeal of change by Eric hoffer !
Listen to "Changes" by David Bowie after watching this! XD
It's fitting and cute!
Why do I feel like this is also a little kid version of the gold rush in the early years
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.
Oh geez I'm a Hem. 🙄 With some scurry now and again.
