If there is something that has the power to turn-around our lives, or something that we cannot control and have to live with, is change. It is something that we cannot avoid and is useless to resist, so it is best, if we accept change with arms wide open.

Critical Appreciation of the book.
The book “Who moved my cheese?” has many take away points for everyone, no matter that person is of any age, or any life cycle.
From the discussions of the group of friends we can know that the up’s and down’s are a part of life, and that all the spheres of life, be it family, work, business can be affected by it. But the it all can be corrected and rectified with time and adjustment, the thing is that only the cheese has been moved a bit or some problems have come in that need to be rectified.
So the author tells us that it is necessary for us to move out of our comfort zone, and try to adjust with the new situation, which may seem tough, but is worth it.
But the best part that I liked about this book, is that the author has thoughtfully included a lot of Motivational Quotes in the book, especially when Haw travels along the maze alone to find the cheese. These quotes go a long way, in motivating, inspiring and encouraging those who lose hope, or are afraid of change and resist
I would recommend this book to a friend because it tells you about how to appreciate what you have and never complain, they are other people that are struggling because they don’t have what you
This book, can relate to people who don't usually believe that they can make a change. That they have no effect on the world. This book, tells you straight up, that if you change yourself, you can change the world around you. This is very motivating, and a very awesome
During the summer vacation, I gladly came across “Follow the Rabbit Proof Fence” and "War Horse"; two inspiring, and heart warming books. Both managing to prove that hope and resilience can get you through the obstacles and struggles that you face in life. Despite the great portrayal of characters and the exquisite delivery of themes by both authors, I have managed to conclude that “Follow the Rabbit Proof Fence" was the highlight of my summer reading.
In summation, there are two themes that prevail in the book. The two themes are never give up and when the individual is scared to do something they can overcome their fear. The importance of never giving up is so people can achieve more and be satisfied. The importance of having courage is so
In order to evaluate the contribution of qualitative research on friendship, it is crucial to define and have some background of friendship, define and understand qualitative approach and then evaluate its contribution to friendship research. Friendship is considered to be one of the pillars of day to day life starting from childhood to very old age. Friendship is a complex endeavour and can be difficult to define as it may have different meanings to different people at different times. Friendship has different stages and occurs inversely in different stages of life i,e childhood, adolescence, and adulthood friend, long-term friend, best friend, good friend, school friend, college friend and etc. Friendship is a mutual trust and support between
It was much better than I had anticipated before reading it. Wes Moore is a strong author who properly used writing mechanics to deliver powerful scenes and great messages. I would say that the main theme of this book is the importance of education in adolescent life and that small things really can make all of the difference. The author Wes Moore 's life appeared very dull in comparison to the other Wes Moore 's; however, it was Wes Moore 's life that would provide quotes that inspire or were otherwise relatable to MAST life. One such quote in the novel was : "In spite of myself, I was impressed.
The journey I was taken on while reading the novel had a beneficial effect on myself, expressed significance to the world about a common topic and showed how the main character gradually changed throughout the story. I felt
I really enjoyed reading this book and I think you would to. It is a book about persistence and loyalty. If you think you may like this book be sure to check out one of Peg Kehret’s other
When Dale Carnegie first published his book, How to Win Friends & Influence People, he did not anticipate his work to become an overnight sensation. How to Win Friends & Influence People earned its “place in publishing history as one of the all-time international best-sellers” and after reading the book, it is no surprise to me that the books sales skyrocketed (Carnegie, 1981, p. xi).

“Heigh-ho, the merry-o, the cheese stands alone... I know, of course, who I am, who I will always be. I am the cheese.” Said Adam Farmer in Robert Cormier’s “I am the Cheese”. In the story, Adam does not remember his tragic past and undertakes the task of trying to remember it.
People love this book for a plethora of reasons, but the main reason I come to find is the wisdom laced into every theme, and quotes that will send you deep
It taught me that strength and perseverance can make a significant impact in life. I also learned that forgiveness and the ability to forgive is much more powerful than I ever realized. This novel sucked me into the story and its characters and took me on an emotional ride of highs and lows. Finally, it forced me to reevaluate my previous judgement of the homeless.
How to Win Friends and Influence People provides methods and instructions on how to handle people, how to make people like you, how to win people to your way of thinking, and how to be a leader. Within every objective Dale Carnegie presented I discovered an effective approach that would benefit both parties in
