Who Moved My Cheese – Embracing Challenges to Bring Joy

Good morning, for a lot of you right now, it might be kind of a frustrating morning because now your whole schedule is chaotic. And how did it go chaotic? Your children are home for the summer and now comes new challenges.

Ahhhhhh!

A great book to embrace change.

There’s a book I absolutely love. It’s called, “Who Moved My Cheese.” This book is amazing because it fits so perfectly right now. The whole concept is illustrating how we have these mazes that we have to get through to discover what’s going to work best for you. Some of the paths we go down, we hit dead ends, and we have to keep traveling and trying to discover the routine or trail that’s going to work best.

If you’re a mouse and you figured out how to get to your cheese, you go the same route every time and you get used to this same routine.

Getting Used to Challenges

For the last nine months, you’ve gotten used to your regular routine, thoughts and patterns of what’s going to happen next.

For example, you’ve gotten used to when you wake up, you do these specific things. You get set in these routines that help you to start the day and perform the best way you can. Well, then all this sudden you go to pick up your cheese or go to do your routine you can’t. It’s gone! Somebody moved.

School’s out and routine no longer works
