This article is not about the suicide bomber martyr that we are familiar with but instead about the many ways in which we buy into being a martyr in our everyday life.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://rodsherwin.gaia.com/blog/2008/1/are_you_being_a_martyr"><DIV>In Australia, we have a concept called the “tall poppy syndrome”. The tall poppy syndrome is where the more successful you are the more people want to cut you down. On the flipside is the national identity of the “aussie battler” who should be admired for doing it tough. So the tougher you have it the more you get acceptance, sympathy, and significance. The more successful you are the more that people will want to cut you down. Sounds like martyrdom to me.</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/7BAF6DBE-A826-45B3-A23A-26CCF251FB9A/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
