Top 3 Value Bombs:
1. You alone define your value. Your value is not defined by that narcissist, nor by anything external. You are inherently valuable. Regardless of how the other person makes you feel, you have the power to not give them the permission. Narcissist will do everything to bring you down.
2. The key negotiating with a narcissist is to build a strategy and leverage that actually threatens a source of narcissistic supply that is more important for the narcissist to keep and retain than the supply that they get from jerking you around and keep you miserable.
3. When you're creating a "magic bullet" leverage, think about what's going to motivate and squeeze that narcissist, and incentivize them into wanting to come to the table with you by coming up with things that potentially exposes them.
