Who Moved My Cheese

This gave me much more insight as to how to be a pilot, what it takes to live the life of an Army Rotary Wing Aviator. I was enthralled and immediately decided I could not suffer a part time contract to fly, I had to have the lifestyle and the opportunity of active duty. This created a timing problem as I was still fresh in a 6 year contract. I did not waste the time I had left; I focused on becoming the best soldier I could. Fueled by the expertise, dedication and experience of the aviators I have come across, I began requesting training above my level and consistently rising to the challenges of my superiors and performing above average. I surprised myself along the way, surpassing my own high expectations, and after appreciating every success I reset the bar higher than before. The struggles that have caused me to push back my timeline are not seen as regrets. Every struggle was beat. Every hurdle showed me how much more I am capable of. My desire and dedication hasn’t changed because of this but my understanding has; I would compare it to a child’s wild, superfluous dream turning into an adult’s strong, focused

I most identify with Hem and Haw, they are two little people. They are happy at first doing what comes naturally and eating what is in front of them. As time goes on the cheese begins to lessen and they eventually have no cheese, but they wait to see if more cheese will appear. When no cheese appears they eventually go out into the maze looking for more but are afraid to venture to far from the place the original cheese was. I feel I most identify wit Hem and Haw because they are afraid

Gabrielle Roy's "The Move", highlights a young girl's longing for adventure and travel toward unknown destinations. However, as she realizes what is truly present outside her imagination, a surge of disillusionment comes over her. The child's description of horses, spearheading an adventure, but then falling ill and tired, illustrates the girl's realization that excitement and joy in the world cannot amount to her vivid imagination. In the short story, the image of weary moving horses parallels the child's sudden grasp of reality, illustrating the naive character's loss of innocence.

In September, I had the opportunity to visit the Naval Academy for a “Candidate Visit Weekend.” During my two-night visit, I was paired with a current midshipman, whom I accompanied to classes, meals, and a sports practice. Personally experiencing daily life at the Academy and meeting current midshipmen has reinforced my desire to join their ranks. The most inspiring thing about the midshipmen I met was the effort that they put into succeeding. Being a part of this culture, even for two days, has shown me that I can work just a little harder, and that I can push myself just a little further. Since returning home, I have done just that in numerous ways.

I gave my time now I need to resign.I am leaving because I have a have a family, the harsh climates, I don't want smallpox. I have already served my 9 months to help but I need to go home. It's important to ask a soldier at Valley Forge should have re enlisted because it is nice to re enlist but if you serve your time you can go. It matters today because our country is free because people stayed to

I decided in 2008 I wanted to go back to school because of a traumatic EMS call that made me realize I could not rely on being a paramedic for the rest of my life. I set out to graduate in four years. December of 2012 was when I wanted to graduate. And I was on the right track. However, along with my life changes this goal had to be altered. With a failed marriage and losing weight I looked into joining the Air Force. I also started talking with a Department of Public Safety recruiter. I wanted out of EMS so back I was willing to settle for less than my dream of becoming a Game Warden. I was accepted to both departments. After talking to by DPS recruiter I decided this was the perfect opportunity to fulfill a lifelong dream. So in 2012 instead of graduating college I joined the Air Force. In joining the Air Force it did delay my graduation; however I am better qualified for my future. When I began my college career the military was not an option. The information was always there but the ability to join was not mainly due to me being too large. Although I am four years late in graduating from my original goal, I would not change a thing about the choices I have

most of the story revolves around John, the narrator and the woman in the wallpaper. According

Left to their own devices, many people slack off by procrastinating and taking employment with jobs that have no advancement opportunities. This could be due to their having a lack of skill, not enough education or, simply, no desire for financial or career success. The military nips such notions in the bud by providing career and educational counseling. By gaining and using newfound skills, many are encouraged to succeed and gain determination,

I joined the Marine Corps looking for a challenge. I wanted to open doors for a new career and longed to have a positive impact on the world around me. Looking back five years later, I realize I found all that I originally sought, but I’ve also found something profoundly satisfying and meaningful that I never knew I was missing.

Haw decided now was time to move on and find new cheese and he started getting ready to leave and tried to persuade his friend to go with him. "As Hem saw his friend getting into his running gear, he said, "You're not really going out into the Maze again, are you? Why don't you just wait here with me until they put the Cheese back?" "Because, you just don't get it," Haw said. "I didn't want to see it either, but now I realize they're never going to put yesterday's Cheese back. It's time to find New Cheese." Haw now realizes that changes will take place and he must move with the change and react to it positively.

The book “Who Moved My Cheese?” is a simple story about mice and “little people” that helps readers handle and deal with changes in their lives. The story is about two mice and two human-like individuals named “little people” (who are the size of the mice). The two mice’s names are Scurry and Sniff. The two little people’s names are Hem and Haw. The story takes place in a “maze” and the characters look for “cheese” to nourish them in the maze. When the characters find cheese, only to have it disappear, they experience change. The different characters show different ways of responding to this change and teach lessons that can be applied to our daily lives.

At the outset of the story, Hem represents the follower who fears change and only wants the comfort of holding onto his cheese.

This book, by Spencer Johnson, reveals the truths about how we deal with change that happens in our lives which effects us in so many ways, either positively or negatively. The book takes an amusing approach to what happens when you don’t adapt to change and what happens when you do. In the book, cheese is used as a metaphor for what you want to have in life. All my life I wanted the nice house, the beautiful wife, the kids, money, the dog, the nice tuck to pull the nice boat, the great career, and so on , and so on. To me, it’s human nature to want those things and I eventually got all of those things and then some….. More on that later. There was another metaphor in the book, which was the maze.

The video, “Who moved my cheese?” encompasses four characters entering the maze in search of cheese. Sniff and Scurry are both proactive as they measure the condition of the cheese and keep their running shoes around their necks instead of throwing them aside after they have found the first cheese station. This proves that they have expected some changes in the future, and they are prepared to face all kinds of situations. The mice intend to commit more time to running and searching for new cheese rather than planning, thinking and analyzing the situation before initiating the search. However, their spontaneity saves them time and leads

Who Moved My Cheese? is a story of four characters: two mice ( Sniff and Scurry) and two little people ( Hem and Haw), The characters live in a maze and are in constant search for cheese. Every morning the mice and the humans went their separate ways, through the corridors and hallways of the maze, in search of cheese. One day both groups stumble upon a “Cheese Station C.” This corridor had more cheese than any other. Pleased with their findings, Hem and Haw started to get more and more comfortable in Station C. They personalized it as much as possible and viewed it as a second home. They started becoming arrogant. Supplies of cheese were gradually decreasing. Eventually, a day came where there was no cheese left at the Cheese Station C. Sniff and Scurry was not surprised because they noticed the change. Hem and Haw, however, did not. The mice left the station behind and begun a search for new cheese. Little people did not. They could not accept the fact that all of the cheese was gone and that the supply was not constant. They were not prepared and their over-thinking mind threw them in denial. After some time Haw accepted the fact that little people will have to respond to this change and he proposes a search for new cheese. Hem, however, chose to dwell in his victimized state of mind and not accept change. Putting his fears aside, Haw proceeded with the search for new cheese. He eventually finds “Cheese Station N,” only to notice that Sniff and Scurry have been there for
