Hey guys, Dr. Burke here. Listen, have you ever had a friend or a family member not take

0:04.4

your nutritional advice? I know it's shocking. I mean, here you're given this great truth

0:08.5

and they just don't jump all over it, right? Well, today I want to talk about why that

0:12.8

is. Okay, I want to teach you this French word, which is right here, idae fix. Okay, that's

0:19.8

what that means. It's a fixed idea, okay? So, this isn't a, you can look this up. It's right

0:24.8

online. The definition of this would be the preoccupation of the mind believing to be firmly

0:31.1

resistant to any attempt to modify it. It's a fixation. Fixation. The name originates from the French,

1:34.1

stick up from me. I'll have some people that have a different viewpoint, and they'll just go off

1:38.9

and off, and they'll, instead of trying to understand something, they'll call me names and all

1:43.9

sorts of things. I just kind of laugh at that. But this new information that you're trying to

1:47.9

present to someone really invalidates their information, okay? Now, usually when you have a fixed

1:55.9

idea about something, you're not very flexible in your thinking about it. You're just like, this
