Question

Who moved my cheese?

• Explain what you believe is the main message of the story?
• Which character do you most relate to when faced by change?
• Would you yell, “It’s not fair!” if someone “moved your cheese,” or would you be like the mice, and immediately start to look for New Cheese? Why?

Answer 1

Answer: I feel that the main message of this story is that the change is the part of life and everybody should accept it and develop continuously to adjust with the changing needs of the time. The character of Haw is most related to me when faced by change. I mostly accept the change and attempt to find new ways of dealing with the change but I often delay such decisions. Haw in this story went into the maze to find new cheese after remaining indecisive and this is exactly I attempt to do when confronted with the change. I feel that I should like the mice immediately start looking for new cheese. This is mainly because early you start early you get. Delaying the decision to accept change and start searching for new alternatives will only cause delays and harm that may occur from not changing.
