Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
The worst thing for (each) of the three personality types (predominant worldviews) of the Wakefield Doctrine?
Glad you (didn’t) ask
The three types of people found in the (additional perspective) offered by the Wakefield Doctrine:
- clarks (Outsider)
- scotts (Predator)
- rogers (Herd Member)
That which manifests as ‘the-most-to-avoid-in-life/aka ‘no fricken’ way!
- scrutiny
- non-rationality as a standard for the world (i.e. say, you get up tomorrow and the sky is purple and every one insists it’s always been that color then Friday morning it’s yellow polka dots and, ever body is all, ‘Yeah? So what?1‘
- shunning/isolation
There you have it.
Remember one thing:
- once you learn the Doctrine to a sufficient level of compentcy to recogninse the clarks, scotts and rogers in your world, there’s a real good chance you will lose the capacity to not see the clarks, scotts and rogers in your world
- there is an implied responsibility we accept in claiming to ‘know the other person better than they know themselves’; they (fill in the blank* are our people and we should identify with them** and help in an appropriate manner***)
ok…running out of morning-writing time. check back after lunch. we promise to add the words that, if you’re not an Advanced Reader, will make (way more) sense of this post.
- ok, anyone reacting to this with a knowing laugh, there you have your clarks. For Outsiders Consistency as a quality of reality is kinda higher than ‘I wish I could sing’ but way, way below ‘a satisfying and well-paying job would be nice’.
* the clarks (with their ways of hiding in social settings), scotts (like the twirling dust tornado of Tasmania isn’t all we need to know about the person… no, no multiple choice personality profile needed) lol or rogers (well, damn they be like 66% of the population to begin with and no, there’s no point in running once spotted, all rogers are born with the ability to trigger the (local) social-setting PA… “Oh, clark! where are you getting off to…. come here, we have some questions”)
** remember! while we all have but one predominant worldview, we retain the potential to relate to the world as do ‘the other two’
*** empirical evidence in these pages suggest that (if not a clark) a strong secondary clarklike aspect goes a long way towards, “Well, sure those people are weird, but, when you think about it, it kinda makes sense”.
