I Moved Your Cheese: For Those Who Refuse to Live as Mice in Someone Else's Maze (Bk Business)
by Deepak Malhotra
View on GoodreadsSpencer Johnson's cheese parable tells you to adapt when someone moves your cheese. Deepak Malhotra's short counter-fable asks why you're accepting the maze at all, and his case is that the limits you set for yourself often confine you more than the walls around you do.
Core ideas
- Three who refuse: Max, Big and Zed won't simply chase the cheese, and each finds a different way past the maze.
- Inside, through, beyond: Max studies how the maze came to be and works the system from within, Big breaks through the walls, and Zed thinks his way past its limits.
- Question the premise: Before you adapt to circumstances someone else set, explore the alternatives, and where you can, escape the maze or reshape it.
