谁动了我的奶酪（完整英文故事版） Who Moved My Cheese?
An Amazing Way to Deal With Change In Your Work & In Your Life
DR SPENCER JOHNSON
“Cheese” – a metaphor for what we want to have in life, whether it is a
job, a relationship, money, a big house, freedom, health, recognition,
spiritual peace, or even an activity like jogging or golf.
Each of us has our own idea of what Cheese is, and we pursue it because we
believe it makes us happy. If we get it, we often become attached to it. And
if we lose it, or it’s taken away, it can be traumatic.
ONCE, long ago, there lived 4 little characters who ran through a maze looking
for cheese to nourish them & make them happy. Two were mice named “Sniff” &
“Scurry” and two were little people named “Hem” & “Haw”. Every morning,
the mice & the little people dressed in their running gear & headed over to
Cheese Station C where they found their own kind of cheese. It was a large
store of Cheese that Hem & Haw eventually moved their homes to be closer to it
& built a social life around it. To make themselves feel more at home, Hem &
Haw decorated the walls with sayings. One read: "Having Cheese Makes you
Happy". Having Cheese Makes You Happy One morning, Sniff & Scurry arrived at
Cheese Station C & discovered there was no cheese.
They weren’t surprised. Since they had noticed the supply of cheese had been
getting smaller every day, they were prepared for the inevitable & knew
instinctively what to do. They were quickly off in search of New Cheese. Later
that same day, Hem & Haw arrived. “What! No Cheese? Who moved my Cheese?
It’s not fair!”, Hem yelled. They went home that night hungry & discouraged.
But before they left, Haw wrote on the wall: The More Important Your Cheese is
To You, The More You Want To Hold Onto It. The next day Hem & Haw left their
homes, & returned to Cheese Station C. But situation hadn’t changed. Haw
asked, “Where are Sniff & Scurry? Do you think they know something we
don’t?” Hem scoffed, “What would they know? They’re just simple mice. They
just respond to what happens. We’re little people. We’re smarter.”
Haw suggested, “Maybe we should stop analyzing the situation so much and just
get going & find some New Cheese. Haw decided to leave Cheese Station C while
Hem was more comfortable staying in the cheeseless Station C. Haw announced,
“It’s MAZE time!” and wrote:
If You Do Not Change,
You Can Become Extinct
Who Moved My Cheese?
Meanwhile, Sniff & Scurry went farther into the maze until they found Cheese
Station N. They found what they had been looking for: a great supply of New
Cheese. It was the biggest store of cheese the mice had ever seen.
Haw on the other hand become more anxious & wondered if he really wanted to
go out into the Maze. He wrote a saying on the wall ahead of him & stared at
it for some time:
What Would You Do
If You Weren’t Afraid?
Haw now realized that the change probably would not have taken him by surprise
if he had been watching what was happening all along and if he had anticipated
change. He stopped for a rest & wrote on the wall of the Maze:
Smell The Cheese Often
So You Know
When It Is Getting Old.
Haw wondered if Hem had moved on, or if he was still paralyzed by his own
fears. Then, Haw remembered the times when he had felt his best in the Maze.
It was when he was moving along. He wrote:
Movement In A New Direction Helps You Find
New Cheese.
As Haw started running down the dark corridor, he began to smile. Haw didn’t
realize it yet, but he was discovering what nourished his soul. He was letting
go & trusting what lay ahead for him, even though he did not know exactly what
it was.
To his surprise, Haw started to enjoy himself more & more. He stopped to write
again on the wall:
When You Move Beyond Your Fear,
You Feel Free.
Who Moved My Cheese?
To make things even better, Haw started to paint a picture in his mind again.
He saw himself in great realistic detail, sitting in the middle of a pile of
all his favorite cheeses-from Cheddar to Brie! He saw himself eating the many
cheeses he liked, & he enjoyed what he saw.
The more clearly he saw the image of himself enjoying New Cheese, the more
real & believable it became. He wrote:
Imagining Myself
Enjoying New Cheese,
Even Before I Find It,
Leads Me To It.
Haw wondered why he had always thought that a change would lead to something
worse. Now he realized that change could lead to something better.
Then he raced through the Maze with greater strength & agility. Until he found
bits of New Cheese. He entered the Cheese Station but it was empty. Someone
had already been there.
He stopped & wrote on the wall:
The Quicker You
Let Go Of Old Cheese,
The Sooner
you Find New Cheese.
Haw made his way back to Cheese Station C to offer Hem bits of New Cheese but
was turned down. Hem wanted his own Cheese back. Haw just shook his head in
disappointment but this does not stop him from finding New Cheese. He smiled
as he realized:
It Is Safer
To Search In The Maze
Than Remain
In The Cheeseless Situation.
Haw realized again, that what you are afraid of is never as bad as what you
imagine. The fear you let build up in your mind is worse than the situation
that actually exists.
He realizes it was natural for change to continually occur, whether you
expect it or not. Change could surprise you only if you didn’t expect it &
weren’t looking for it.
When he realized he had changed his beliefs, he paused to write on the wall:
Old Beliefs
Do Not Lead You To
New Cheese.
Who Moved My Cheese?
Haw now realized that his new beliefs were encouraging him to behave in a new
way. He was behaving differently from the way he had when he had kept
returning to the same cheeseless station.
It all depends on what you choose to believe. He wrote on the wall:
When You See That You Can Find And Enjoy New Cheese, You Change Course.
Haw just hoped he was heading in the right direction. He thought about the
possibility that Hem would read The Handwriting On The Wall & find his way.
He wrote on the wall what he had been thinking about for some time:
Noticing Small Changes Early Helps You Adapt To The Bigger Changes That Are
To Come.
He continued on through the Maze with greater strength & speed. He proceeded
along a corridor that was new to him, rounded a corner, & found New Cheese at
Cheese Station N where he saw the greatest supply of Cheese he had ever seen.
Sniff & Scurry welcomed him.
“Hooray for Change!”
Haw wrote down a summary of what he had learned on the largest wall of Cheese
Station N & smiled as he looked at what he had learned:
THE HANDWRITING ON THE WALL
?Change Happens
?Anticipate Change
?Monitor Change
?Adapt To Change Quickly
Change
?Enjoy Change !
?Be Ready To Change Quickly & Enjoy It Again.
Move With The Cheese &
Enjoy It !
