Wednesday -the Wakefield Doctrine-

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

RePrint?

sure, why the heck not?

(oh yeah!  before this shortcut: the Wakefield Doctrine is an additional perspective on the world around us based on our relationship (since, like right from the start life) with it there are three of (these) and the one you have based your social strategies and interactional styles of behavior upon is your personality type (aka predominant worldview) you only have time to learn/practice one and while the ‘other two’ ways to relate to the world remain as potential, one is all you gots, luckily, it’s the perfect personality type based on the personal reality you exist in (and have, since you was babies) clarks are Outsiders not to be confused with introverts, but to be fair, lets say during our young school years, we summered in Spectrum-ville, (lol); scotts are Predators full of life and determined to ride all the rides, they will nip at your hells and be at your side for the climatic showdown all guns a-blazing while laughing the scottian female will totally have a derringer and maybe a knife (or two) with wicked martial/marital skills (“We’re surrounded, one chance. Now go!! I got this!!!”) and rogers of Members of the Herd so certain you’d think (or chose) to believe what they say, but the thing is it’s not what they say, it’s what they know that’s important, ready to be reliable, often distracted/offended by the novel, they will surely be remembered by their works if not their thoughts.)

 

ok, we promised a RePrint

… no, you’re absolutely correct how the above all ee cummings manual of style (ish) is sufficient

the coolest thing about the Doctrine is that you already know what you need to know to take advantage of it’s curious organization of views of the world.

one thing: the Wakefield Doctrine, while possessed of the glorious ambition to allow us to see the world as the other person is experiencing it, is not for everyone.

the Wakefield Doctrine (and it’s perspective) is for you, not them.

2’s Day -the Wakefield Doctrine-

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

To decide what the predominant worldview of another person, start by discarding the ‘no fricken’ way’ of the three.

Too many people, (not you, Faithful Reader!), allow themselves to get caught up in the laundry list of characteristics that they, (incorrectly), believe are the determinants (of ‘personality type).

To which we will remind all, the three personality types:

  1. clark (the Outsider) clarks think
  2. scott (the Predator) scotts act
  3. roger (the Herd Member) rogers feel

Two out of three, how hard can it be to select the correct worldview?

To wit: knowing the character of each of these remaining predominant worldview, look around… through their eyes.

Two distinct world(views) but! (this is the part where your reading comes to the fore) each is different from the other… maybe the number of 1st person pronouns, or 3rd person or ‘Hey!’

Two, like the optometrist’s googles, (‘look at the chart, is this clearer, how about this? now, is this better or worse?’)

To experience the world, (in a fairly shallow degree), means the scene you are comparing is ‘clearer’ through the lens of one predominant worldviews than the other.

To our conclusion:

  • learn the three relationships, inside and out
  • if obvious indicators, (of a person’s predominant worldview), is not evident, i.e. the eyes of a scott, the slouch of a clark, the social ease of a rogers then go for a side-by-each approach
  • they will reveal themselves
  • and you will immediately know more about them than they know about themselves

2 Pretty simple, isn’t it?

Monday -the Wakefield Doctrine-

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

It’s Complicated

You wouldn’t understand

You’re different, this doesn’t apply

Life is not so neat and organized

Sure, it’s clever but to be genuinely useful it’s fairly under-validated

Derivative, been done

People simply don’t fit into so limited a taxonomic scheme

Everyone will laugh

Life doesn’t fit into three categories

What were they again? (clarks, scotts and rogers)

And the basis of this paper-doll phylogeny? (one’s relationship with the world)

Stop it, now.

There’s no way you’re going to backwards-answer the above statements and bring it to a conclusion. (no, not if you maintain that attitude)

An additional perspective on the world around us and the people who make it up. The Wakefield Doctrine is not the Answer. It is a question. As such, you are responsible for the product of its application to your life.

One thing: a) you can’t get it wrong 2) you can’t break it.

It’s not for everyone. Not everyone enjoys the constructive make-believe that is hidden (all too effectively for most) in the world.

TToT -the Wakefield Doctrine-

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

Speaking of the Book of Secret Rules (aka the Secret Book of Rules)… this pitcha is good for, like, 13 Grats

 

This is the Wakefield Doctrine’s contribution to the Ten Things of Thankful (TToT) bloghop. Created 13 or so years ago by Founderess Lizzi R what sets this grat blog apart from the many, many, many others with the same theme is that it (the TToT, not the theme) encourages all to be as creative as the spirit moves us. Ya know? To that end, while we hope to get a list of ten things that you (the Reader/Participant) have found to inspire and instigate a state of Gratitude it’s total WWF-no-holds-barred list writing. The only requirement is ‘good intent’. Won’t spend a lot of time defining that; suffice to say, if you get it deliberately wrong you will have to answer to Kristi.

1)  Phyllis

2) Una

3) the Wakefield Doctrine

4) Front Meadow Status Update

5) the Six Sentence Story bloghop

6) Ola’s bridge

7) something, something

8) Hypo-Grat* So, like, everyone pulls out the chrono-reverse** refrigerator ever time they vacuum, am I right? The photo below shows a bottle of dog shampoo we bought for Una in the throes of ‘My god! What kind of humans are we… (backstory: Una was a chodsky pes and, as such had a double coat and, wicked long hair. She didn’t particularly enjoy being brushed. So we didn’t. We did take her to a groomer once, back in, like, 2016 or so. They did a great job. Went back the following year and Una made it abundantly clear that the first grooming she did for us. Naturally, I paid the cancellation fee and we beat a hasty retreat. While the photo for Grats 1 & 2 was not taken at the time, it is a good facsimile for the expression on her face when we left the groomers in our rearview mirror;) that fell behind said refrigerator. The grat is an appreciation of exercise and a brief time-travel to that day with Una.

 

9) grateful for the Hostinae (and Host, Andrew) Just this week, the codes that link this thing of ours suffered from an operator error. (ikr? like we made a mistake with the date span. knock us over with a feather). Be that as it may, Hostinae cai alerted TToT Host Central as to the error and it was rectified.

10) Secret Rule 1.3

 

 

* Hypo-grat: one of the distinctive features afforded participants by the rules (SR 1.5 chapter 9 subverse 8) of our little bloghop… most of us not living in Vincent Peale-ville, ya know? So bad things happen to nearly everyone. Find and include the grat aspect and you’re good to go. (Some restriction may apply. When in doughnut, consult the TToT resident maven, Mimi)

** when ordinary, every day objects, devices, things and/or ambition becomes heavier with each passing year

Frydae -the Wakefield Doctrine-

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

Despite today being Friday, while we will forego the weekly Quiz. scotts and rogers are given leave to go out and play. (aka chase ‘n eat, or gather unto oneself proof of Correctness)

(If you’re still bored, gather your little friends around you, scott (no snacking! friends are not energy bars!) and try this.)

For everyone still at your desks in this metaphor-logy, we Way-Back our ownselfs to the days of wood and metal classroom desks. Cool thing being, the desk had a built-in defensive, (well, actually, offensive), feature: a solid maple top on a hinge that, for an unsuspecting classmate distracted by their rummaging around inside them, can be surprised shut. ha ha.

…anyway

Compare and Contrast

The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;’

 

Which is the clark? Who is the scott? Where, (and there is one), is the roger?

Now isn’t that more fun than spending mandatory recess in the schoolyard dodging scotts and avoiding rogers?

Mimi, you had a Comment?

Why yes, there are times and situations, friendships and relationships-of-convenience that would make this period not entirely unpleasant. Example?

Correct! clarks have scottian friends/collaborators and, the same-but-different, rogerian best friends. ’twas ever thus.

Class? The danger in this set of relationships? (Remember: cite examples in terms of grade school level maturity and social context)

Misky! You’ve eaten the entirety of your recess-bound classmates already? (Well, of course you divvied them up with your fellow scotts. The pack does need to keep up their energy level)

Since you’re here, do you care to address the topic?

Very good! And controversial! Yates may very well be a roger. How would you support your assertion?

Denise… you’ve been uncharacteristically quiet. Would you care to contribute to our little discussion?

No, asking ‘Who let the dogs in?’ Is not quite what we had in mind.

oh, not in a bad way. lol Fine. continue

sorry time is up! pencils down.
