Reading books is one of my hobbies that I always enjoy in my leisure time. I generally read books about life lessons and some phenomenal artists that had a successful journey. Here I’m going to describe about a book which is named as Who Moved My Cheese by Spencer John. This book discusses how a change in somebody’s life can influence their whole perspective and how it can change their rationale about life. This book was, no, this book I read about when I was 20 years old and I found this book in one of the library at my college. I usually go to the library to look for books which are interesting and can be really engaging. So I came across this book and I started reading it and from the moment I read it I really felt admired from it so I continued to read it and then I completed the whole book. The major change that I had in my life after reading that book is that I gained more exposure about how to deal difficult situations in life and how I can learn from my mistakes without even regretting from them. So having a real influence on your life is really challenging and how to treat that can be learned from a book, which is as simple as you can find it anywhere. Overall, this was my experience when I read a book and it significantly changed my perspective about something.
