    <description>Thought Works is a podcast about random thoughts of two seasoned healthcare professionals. These thoughts center around what makes each one of us different, yet similar.  From fears and our worrying/panicking of the next change in our normal life to satisfaction and our tastes in food or music.  This is not some dry stuffy recording of a human parts list. It is a compared  and contrasted approach between Eddie and Darren.  Now they  have similarities and differences themselves.  But an important similarity, is the never ending curiosity and drive to understand.  
Darren is lead by the "dead cat gene" of curiosity and wanting all to understand.  Eddie is passionate about people not missing out or suffering from a lack of openness to try something new.  Listen along to be engaged, informed,  or just entertained.

Listen this episode as Darren tries to explain stubbornness to Eddie.  Even if you don't consider yourself or your family stubborn, you can still get a better understanding of people around you.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Stubbornness is defined as dogged determination not to change one's attitude or position on something.  This trait is looked at negatively by some, and could limit one's experiences in life. There is more to this than just opposition.  Listen to Darren (self professed stubborn person) explain to Eddie that asking a stubborn person to change their mind is more than just being open.  The discussion takes many trails in discussion, as is the usual case.  Holding firm to one's position can be personal for these stubborn people.  Asking them to change their mind, is a little more complicated than just consider a different view on a given topic.  So, take a listen to this discussion and form your own opinion of stubbornness.
