An Ode to
Great
Australian Knockers.
Each country is known for it's preferred negative trait.
The English winge, Americans brag, Europeans ignore ... whereas
Australians knock.
Come up with a great idea in Australia, and you can lay odds
that
someone will be close by, ready to knock it. We Australians make a
fine pastime of knocking the ideas of our friends, family and
business associates.
 Knock Knock ~ the famous and wealthy.
Venturing out to become wealthy or famous is rarely a joy for
many Australians. Most celebrities and business
entrepreneurs discover the hard way, that their successes will
not be celebrated with them, but more so against them.
It is a great Australian tragedy that our winners will be bagged
for their successes, their looks, their abilities and even their
dress sense.
 Knock Knock ~ the business baggers.
Carrying the weight of knockers
in business can be unbearable.
Attempting to enact change or improvements is a nightmare,
especially if the
knockers have decision making powers.
"They can't do that ... those ideas suck
... man that's ridiculous ... "
Knocking literally destroys the chance of growth ...
 So why do we tolerate
knockers?
Knocking is fundamentally a bad case of tall poppy syndrome
... i.e. a total discomfort with another's success.
Knockers gained their knocking
persona as children, through the knocking traits of their parents
and peers. Depending upon the positive influences surrounding
the child, if there was nobody in the group to state
emphatically that knocking was a negative trait, then for a kid
it was a survival thing - knock or be knocked.
Sadly knocking kids is probably one of the single most
destroyers of their characters, and they grow up into big
knockers.
Knockers kick around with other
knockers in knockers clubs!
The ultimate pastime is a good gas between
knockers at a knockers party. NOTHING will be spared across the bar-b-q, as they
systematically bag everyone from entertainers to politicians;
cars to movies, friends to family.
Knocking is so tiresome ... so low
brow ... so boring!
... and we can always rely on how
they will speak about us in the way they speak about others!
 Good news, not
all Australians are knockers!
Powerful people work hard to eliminate their traits of knocking.
If they don't have a positive thing to say, (and that does not
include constructive criticism) they keep their mouths firmly
closed, and move swiftly away from others who don't.
Powerful people are competitive ... but we will never hear them
bag their competitors. They recognize competitors as access to
their own improvement, and a force to be respected.
Knocking can be an effective form of modern Voodoo, eroding the
spirit and confidence of the recipient ... but knockers do more
damage to their own psyche whilst they continue the trait.
Negative expression and traits reside in the cells of their mind
and body, eroding their mental, spiritual and physical health.
Knocking is one great Australian pastime powerful people can do
without!
Well ~ Think about it!
