The first time I heard the name of the book was in short column in TOI where they had given a small summary of the book.
Admittedly the name of the book ’’Who Moved My Cheese’’ is eye catching and makes you think - ’’what is it about , some kind of cheese ? and why are people so crazy about it ?’’
I had the opportunity to read the book some time afterwards.
I dont generally rate such books very highly. But how engrossed I was on reading this book can be imagined by the fact that , since I didnt have the money to but it, I went to crossroads and read the book..all time standing.
What is so special in this book ? A question which many readers would ask if they havent read it.
The answer is very simple. This book gives you a clear picture of the writing on the wall which most of us miss.
Change - the only permanent thing. How we cope up with change decides how we cope up with life and where we end up.
This book tells you that just changing with time when necessary is not adequate. You need to anticipate change and be ready for it instead of being caught off guard and totally unprepared.
As its said very often - the people who get places are the ones who keep moving .
The people who make it to the top the world are the ones who anticipate change and are ahead of time.
Unlike most other books in this category , the author here keeps it simple and easy to understand. Every idea has been carved out of a perfect example.
Even the discussion you will read at the end of the book is very educating and I suggest that people dont skip it.
It will show you who to use the principles learned in this book can be applied to real life situations and with what results.
Summarising - A must read book for all ages. Helps you conquer your fear of change and shows you what awaits you when you give up ur fears and move freely.
