Pain is a great provoker of change and everyone will have different thresholds but none will be as high as ‘The Victim’s.
Let’s take workplaces for example:
Some will leave their jobs when ordered back into the office full time.
Some are able to tolerate a smidge of micromanagement and some can tolerate a whole lot.
But ‘The Victim’ is a glutton for punishment. They believe they deserve this pain. Discomfort fits their worldview.
So, if you’re waiting for ‘The Victim’ to leave a job, bring a book because it’ll be a while.
Only when matters have become truly unbearable will they actually leave.
