ANECDOTE

Who Moved My Cheese Story Of Four Characters

Rob Dial retells Who Moved My Cheese as four characters searching a maze for 'cheese' representing any life goal.
Two mice (Sniff, Scurry) adapt quickly and find more cheese while two 'little people' (Hem, Haw) linger and react differently to loss.

Rob highlights that refusing to change leads to extinction, using Blockbuster rejecting Netflix as a concrete example.
Blockbuster declined to buy Netflix for $50 million and later went extinct while Netflix grew to a multibillion-dollar company.

Rob advises using that question to move from paralysis into purpose-driven action while searching for new 'cheese.'
