The story starts like this
Once upon a time, there were four small characters living on a distant land, running back and forth in a maze, searching for cheese to nourish themselves, and they were very happy when they found it.
There were two characters who were mice, called "Sniff" and "Scurry". The other two characters were little people, they were small like mice, but their appearance and behavior were very similar to humans, their names were "Hunny" and "Happy"...
Every day, the mice and little people were searching for their favorite cheese in the maze...
There is cheese, there is happiness.
[Think about it] "What is the cheese you are pursuing? Where is the maze you are searching for? What methods can you use to find the cheese? What should you do after finding it?"
From the maze guide
"There is cheese, there is happiness." 049
"The more important the cheese is to you, the more you want to hold on to it."057
"Not being in tune with the times, you might not have a way out."072
"If you are not afraid, what will you do?"074
"Sniff your cheese from time to time, and you will know if it is not fresh."080
"Moving in a new direction can help you find new cheese."083
"The feeling of not being afraid is great!"087
"Imagine yourself enjoying your new cheese, guiding you to find it."091
"The faster you let go of the old cheese, the sooner you will find the new cheese."095
"Searching in the maze is safer than staying in an empty cheese station."098
"Old beliefs cannot take you to find new cheese."100
"When you realize that you can find and enjoy new cheese, you will change direction."102
"Pay attention to small changes early, and you can adapt to the big changes that are coming."104
"Follow Happy's journey, what is your experience? Take out your notebook and write your insights on your own maze wall!"
From the wall's slogan
"The world is unpredictable: cheese will be moved around."
"Accept the unpredictability of the world: be prepared for the cheese to be moved around."
"Monitor changes: sniff your cheese from time to time, and you will know if it is not fresh."
"Adapt to changes quickly: the faster you let go of the old cheese, the sooner you will find the new cheese."
"Change yourself: follow the cheese."
"Enjoy the process of change: savor the exploration, enjoy the taste of fresh cheese."
"Be prepared to change yourself quickly, and enjoy it once again: cheese will be moved around."
