Tuesday -the Wakefield Doctrine-

Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

OK, everyone knows how we’re constantly advocating for keeping energy levels at a productively elevated point. Energy, for our purposes might mean, ‘Sure, I can take on one more task’ or ‘I’m tired, but it’s a good tired’ or even, (and more telling), ‘I know it’ll feel good when I finish, so let’s get to it.’

For us, here in the realm of gelatinized thoughts and ideas reduced to a description that will allow another person to see their own, personal manifestation, (of the thing/process/improvement), so reduced to language and preserved in the rhetorical zoo.

Anyway, what prompts this very short post is something I read in a description of a product in the hardware store.

New Readers? Quick context. There was a time, in the early days of this blog, when we were writing every single day. Sometimes more. There was, of course, a lot to talk about. Well, one thing to talk about: the Wakefield Doctrine. But what kept the words coming was that the Doctrine, and those who followed this blog, were all kinds of enjoying different examples of the principles, additional ways to detect the three predominant worldviews, i.e. clarks(Outsiders), scotts(Predators) and rogers(Herd Members). It seemed that everything tied in. (Well, of course it ties in to the Doctrine. The Wakefield Doctrine is nothing if it’s not an additional perspective on our world and the people who make it up. Which is, duh, everything.)

In any event, there was a time when all it took was a commercial on the TV or a passing, casual remark or, in today’s example, a description of a product in the hardware store.

I read it. I laughed out loud(lol) and it resonated with that ‘Write a post’ thing in my world. Here:

 

‘What’s so special about the Victor Smart-Kill Electronic Mouse Trap? Not only does it use a humane, high-voltage shock to eliminate mice in seconds, but this innovative trap also alerts you of a catch via your mobile device…”

 

So, tell me you wouldn’t be all, ‘Damn! I gots to let everyone else know about this!’

 

Seeing how this harkens back to an earlier time, lets have Huey take us out…

Well, what exactly do you want to know? Whether I am a clark or a scott or roger? If you have to ask, then you need to keep reading the Posts for two reasons: a)to get a clear enough understanding to be able to make the determination of which type I am and 2) to realize that by definition I am all three.* *which is true for you as well, all three...but mostly one

      I know, right?
      But I’m too non-young to believe that anything worth doing is worth blue-toothing*.

      * not a ‘real’ verb.
      …yet

    I agree that the notification is a little creepy.
    In the early days of our home ownership, we would have a live and let live attitude towards mice.
    That changed when they raided the chocolate morsels.
    We never caught a mouse in the subsequent traps.
    I suspect that chocolate is toxic to mice.

  3. I believe I am familiar with the realm of gelatinized thoughts…
    Yeah, the ad would have been tolerable but for the “alert”, lol
