A) I’m really hungry, just not sure for what…
                                             B) …nah, you decide….
                                             C)…yeah except not red but more fun…

The Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers) is a unique, productive and fun approach to understanding those around us.  Whether at home or at work or at play, finally the actions and behaviors of the people in our lives will be understandable and possibly begin to make sense.

Back to basics to start today, as we seem to be getting Readers from new locations and possibly even totally “new to the Doctrine’ Readers.  So a  welcome, like we do here at the Wakefield Doctrine:  Welcome!  Bine ati venit la Doctrina Wakefield!  Добро пожаловать на Wakefield доктрины! Wakefield सिद्धांत आपका स्वागत है!

(Unfortunately, the blog may not support the cyrillic or Indo-Aryan characters that are required to display our welcome message above, if not Wlecome to the Wakefield Doctrine (in romanian, russian and hindi).

It is good to review.  This blog is all about the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers, which maintains that all people experience the world in one of three ways and it is their experience (of the world) that produces characteristic behavior (i.e.personality types) not the other way around.  We are not ‘drivers’ or ‘Type A’ or ‘Axis C’ or Cerebrotonic’ or INTJ’ or ‘True Colors’ (no, really there is such a system!), whatever such damn nonsense.  These idiots (mostly rogers but if it is really out-there then a clarks or if it is kinda catchy but stupid then scotts) are trying to convince you that there is inherent in all of us a pre-dispostion to act a certain way.  And they, of course have sorted and organised and very conveniently named this collection of behaviors, which will be explained to you so you can recognise a INTJ type personality and feel so very erudite. (Hey, come on, its called the Wakefield Doctrine because thats where we drive around at…and it called clarks, scotts and rogers ’cause, well.. (can I get a big, “No! Keep the Name!! We all think its Great!!) thank you… (…lol…)

We know better, don’t we? (this is where you say, “yeah! damn straight!”) I thought so.  And not only do we know all those knuckleheads are totally deluded (unless they are scotts) but we happen to know the  truth.  (Can I get a  “Why yes! I concur!!). 

So here it is new Readers ( …”Yeah! New Readers!!!”  ok, sit down)  the simple truth to what has bothered you for most of your life ( …”Life!!! Yeah!  Bring that On Over!!!) (scott, go back to your seat or you will have to go to the quiet place…) (…”YEah!  quie…”)…what the Wakefield Doctrine maintains is people experience reality in one of three characteristic ways, and that it is the reality that creates the (behavior) and if we understand the reality that a person is experiencing then we will know how they will behave in any situation.

Forgive the poor sound quality on the clip that follows, but the truth is I could not bear to watch senior citizens trying to play a song that was never, ever meant for seniors…even if they did write it once in a time long ago…

Show of hands now:
A)  Did anyone listen to this in it’s entirety? (no, clarks don’t count in this little survey)
B)  Did anyone not think of Spinal Tap?

You know how I feel, this is not a nostalgia-themed blog, it just happens that most of my cultural markers are 50 fuckin years old.    (“YEah!! 50 Fuckin!!”  timeout scott…go ahead go to the corner now.)

But while the Wakefield Doctrine is not limited to an age or cultural mileu or anything like that, I cannot avoid referencing those events that comprise…blah, blah, blah)

(…that thing is still playing!! lol did you people in the 60s ever think that less is more?… )

…hey the song is over!  (…well that was only Part 1 lol the really interesting music is in Part(s) 1…5 )

So welcome to our new Readers, stay with us and this will all fall into place.  Ask questions, write Comments ( can I get a big  “Yeah, right” )
