glory is reserved for the adaptable. Change is inevitable but we resist change. This book helps us to cope up with change. The change can be at workplace, in family life or anywhere. People resist change because they are comfortable with their routine habits. This book tells us not to resist change but to handle change in a very lucid manner.

They get shocked on seeing this. They were bewildered and horrified. They had never imagined it to happen Angered and annoyed, Hem demands "who moved my cheese?"...They dont get adjusted to the change.

People waste a lot of time analyzing the change and hoping that the situation will be favorable again. The biggest lesson that I got from this book is that

we should not waste time in analyzing the situation instead they should respond and move. The Quicker You move, you will get it sooner. Movement in a New Direction may help you to attain it. Noticing small changes early helps you adapt to the bigger changes that are to come. Conquer your fear and behave as you are courageous. Fear is the greatest impediment to change.
