Hey Jerry!! We won’t let you walk alone! the Wakefield Doctrine’s 1st Labor Day -athon thingie

August 13, 2011 By clarkscottroger

Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine ( the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers ) which is, for the benefit of the search engines, a personality theory, self-improvement system and Guide to a Happy Life and if that is totally not enough, we have hats!

OK Rocketeers! A lot of material to cover and being a Summer Sunday, we’ll get through it all real quick so you can finish this and still have plenety of time get to the beach or park or where ever you chose to go to get your radiation burns (from the light of a nearby star).

First thing: Lets all Welcome our newest of DownSprings, Molly M and Claire. Theys both much anticipated additions to our growing band of clarks and scotts and rogers. Say Hidy!

Second thing: It has been suggested that the Wakefield Doctrine should have a dictionary or glossary or what-ever-the-hell you call a handbook for the special words, names and terms that have come into existence with our little theory of personality. Not saying that we need to do a Rosetta Stone language program, but there is enough jargon here that new Readers would benefit from a handbook. Nominees to head up the project? Anyone? A volunteer maybe? …don’t make me assign this to someone. Well, you people think about it and let me know who wants the job. ( Could be a free tee shirt in it for someone…).

Third thing: Did someone just mention Tee Shirts? Well it’s beginning to look like maybe the long-awaited, much anticipated Wakefield Doctrine Tee Shirt Fashion line will pop into existence in our currently shared timeline.¹ Now this is good news (if it actually happens); what is not such good news is that we don’t have anything to print on the back (of the shirts).
We are asking any of you out there (DownSprings, FOTDs and Readers alike) to let us know, if you have any suggestions for what to write on the back of the soon-to-exist Wakefield Doctrine Tea Shirts, please for god’s sake let us in on it. All we need is one, simple line that says it all (about the Doctrine), thats all we are asking for, just think about it! If your suggestion is picked…well imagine if you were the one who said, “Father forgive them they know not what they do” or “Give me Liberty or Give me Death” or even “Il’ kuj, il ne mrči gaćâ! “ Then we would be putting your face on the chest, instead of the words: Wakefield Doctrine.
Need we say that these tee shirts will be fine apparel and they will be most attractive! And were you to be fortunate enough to wear them, as a woman you would be much desired!! (and) as a man, you would be thought by all women as being the best to father any child!!

So come on, Readers! What do you say?

The Wakefield Doctrine says:

clarks are so excited!! they know that they must be creative now because when they are famous for their pithy/funny/yet-oh-so-wise sayings, the loneliness will end!!!!
scotts are running in tight little circles, stopping to roll around on their backs, they are sure that finally people will take them seriously and besides they figure the labels will make dinner so much easier to decide on…! (don’t believe me, you can go ask Ms AKH…she won’t, er she probably will not…hey just ask her)
rogers are cautious, they want to believe that what they are reading is not a false trail, they know that the danger is not going to come the scotts, rather it is the clarks that they suspect are somehow managing to disguise themselves enough to enlist the aid of the scotts and don’t they know that rogers ‘sense’ the herd, they don’t read about it…fukin clarks!

So lets get busy folks!! Lots of work to do!

1) You need to ask DS#1 for explanation.

‘but, thats impossible!’ clarks, the Wakefield Doctrine and changing reality

July 28, 2011 By clarkscottroger

Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine! The only self-improvement Movement that is based on the fact that all people are born with the potential to experience the world in one of three characteristic ways, as a clark or (as a) scott or (as a ) roger.

(What do you mean, tomorrow’s guest ‘is not lined up yet’? How can it be Thursday frickin morning and no guest arranged for Video Friday!!??)

The reason that we call the Wakefield Doctrine a ‘self-improvement Movement’ is that, despite the fact that we all settle into one of three personality types (usually by the age of 4 or 5), we never lose the capacity to experience the world the way that the other two types do!
As a self-improvement movement, we believe that change and development can only come from the individual. Furthermore, it is our conviction that most conventional approaches, belief systems and treatment modalities such as MBTA, Oscar, Meyers & Briggs, and colorgenics*, totally miss the mark because they insist on a focus predicated on what is wrong with the individual. This is not inconsistent with the ‘disease model’ that dominates most sort of the disease model, ‘cept they are talking about your life, your actual reality that you live and breathe in every day. They want you to believe that it is you that is the problem, not ‘the world’ (or the people in it).

(Seriously…you are supposed to have at least a hint at who tomorrow’s Video interview guest was going to be!! “We have the rest of today”…now what the hell is that supposed to mean?!)

This is different! Here at the Doctrine we say, ‘hey, it is not you! It’s the world that you are living in!!’ That’s right, you read that correctly. We maintain that most of the problems that people encounter, on a day-to-basis is a world that is a perfect reflection of their personality type. A clark will encounter a world that has everything they need to be healthy, yet perpetually dissatisfied outsiders; the scotts reading this will look up from their computers and see: prey and predators and a world of action and adventure and our rogerian friends will bask in the glow of knowing that they are the center of the universe and (because of this smug knowledge) will know that all is right with the world.

( So, what you are telling me is that we don’t have a guest lined up for tomorrow’s Video Friday??! I don’t care who you thought you had! No, we are not going to do a re-run! Get someone on the phone and set up the interview).

Sorry about the slightly contrived-sounding asides in today’s Post. The fact of the matter is that we have come to like the idea of interviewing people for Video Friday, but the person I thought I might get, I still have not made the connection with in order to do the interview.
Anyone of you Readers up for a telephone interview about the Wakefield Doctrine and it’s benefits? Write a quick comment (your email won’t show publicly, of course), I will follow-up and let you know how these interviews are done. Actually, no secret there; I get in my car, put the Wakefield Doctrine hat on my damn dashboard and dial your number. I ask questions about what you like about the Doctrine and how you explain it to people, we chat a little and thats it! All in about 8 minutes. So write me a Comment, already!

Well, lets put up a video and we will hope for the best. Hey, if tomorrow you have to sit through a video of a clark explaining about clarks, don’t blame us!
Hey! did you know that Jimi Hendrix was a clark? Well he was! Watch the following clip from Live at Monterey Pop and tell me he wasn’t. (at 5:00 into video, Hendrix says, ‘yeah, I know I missed a verse, don’t worry’)

What you don’t know, can help you! A Guide to Personality Types

July 3, 2011 By clarkscottroger

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

The Doctrine blog continues, now in it’s third year.

In the course of the last 24 months, we have established the following:

the Wakefield Doctrine tells us that everyone fits into one of three personality types: clark, scott (or) roger. Knowing the characteristics of these three personality types, enables you to better understand, have an advantage on (or) better relate to the other person.
You and I (and everyone else) is born with the capacity to understand and experience and relate to the world as any of these three types. At an early age, we (all) become one of the three, but never, ever lose the capacity to live in the reality of the other two types.
When the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers states that a person is a clark or a scott or a roger and describes how that person perceives the world, it is intended that you understand that the person being described is not behaving a certain way arbitrarily or by choice. We believe that in the most fundamental way, a clark experiences the world differently than does a scott or a roger (and the scott from the roger and the clark and so forth). This apect of our view on understanding personality types accounts for the superiority of the Wakefield Doctrine over all other personalty typing/theories/schema.

What do you want from a personality theory, anyway?

increase your understanding of why people behave as they do
know in advance how a person will react to any situation
have fun while learning what your girlfriend/boyfriend/mother/father/boss/employee/friend/enemy really thinks of you
wear a hat (on your damn head) that only a few people in the world have the right (to wear)
be a part of something that will grow and become cool, before anyone else does
