I like cheese. So when I saw a bestselling personal development book about one of the best foods ever, I decided to borrow it from my local library.

It's a short book, and I didn't expect it to deliver a lot. But by the end, I learned the importance of adapting to change and the importance of it.

It's a beautiful little book that everyone should read (at least once).

5 stars.

هذا الكتاب يأكد معلومة واحده أن جملة ( الكتاب الأكثر مبيعا ) ورائها كتاب غالبا فاشل وأن الكتاب الذى يبدأ فى أولى صفحاته بخمسين ألف مدح فيه هو غالبا فاشل أيضا ،
كتاب عديم الفائدة بل شعرت أنه ينصح بطريقة طفولية فأسلوب النصح سطحى ومباشر ، و العبارات مكررة وغير مؤثرة.

Change
Our natural reaction to comfort, or perceived comfort, is protecting it and hanging onto it. Even as that comfort starts to erode, we are inclined to ignore the obvious and cling to what we know. "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't." Spencer Johnson has written a short and snappy book that explores how and why we should address change in our lives as a matter of regularity. Cheese is a metaphor for "What we want in life", whether in personal or professional circumstances.

The one constant we have in life is CHANGE. "If we do not change, we can become extinct" and "The quicker we let go of old cheese, the sooner we find new cheese". When cheese goes off, it smells, so keep your sense of smell on alert. This is a compelling fable on the importance of keeping 'change' as a way of life and assent to its core principles.

I need to be in the mood for self-development or motivational books. Still, in the right mood, they can often give that little impetus to see things from a different angle or spur us on to make the choices we need to, particularly when those choices are difficult. Sometimes when the fog of constant action and reaction clouds our view of the important things in life, a little novella like this can reset our focus and priorities.

Fables are a powerful means of getting across a message, and this book is one of the most popular books in this genre and understandably so. I would recommend reading this book.
