🐭 WHO MOVED MY CHEESE? 🧀
In the story Who Moved My Cheese?, “cheese” is a symbol for the things we want in life — success, comfort, relationships, career, health, or happiness.
👉 Your “cheese” could be:
A goal you are chasing (like better grades or a promotion).
A comfort zone you don’t want to lose (like routines, friends, or favorite habits).
A dream you are working toward (like owning a business, finishing school, or learning a new skill).
The lesson: Cheese can move. Change happens. If we cling too hard to old “cheese,” we may get stuck. If we stay curious, adapt, and move forward, we can find new cheese.
