“ Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.

An individual’s personal frame of reference can be thought of as the ‘shell that encloses their understanding’. Change often threatens to ‘crack’ this ‘shell’; which is why it is often painful for people – and why individuals respond differently to what is proposed. The ‘deeper’ the perceived ‘cracks’ that change brings, the greater the ‘pain’ that is felt – and the more that people are likely to resist it.
