New year, new you with 8 mindset changes

This past year has been different than most, but there's no reason why you can’t go into the new year with a fresh start! Make 2024 a junkless year by focusing your new year's goal setting on how you can reframe your mindset to make the most of your surroundings. While you may not be able to control external factors, you can control how you respond to them. Using reframing techniques, you can shift your perspective and view the same event through different perspectives. Even if something may seem negative at first, consider what positives the situation can offer you.

Using a mindful reframing approach to external events can set you up to develop a more positive outlook. To get started, you need to recognize the current frame you are using and assess if that is a helpful perspective to have. If not, consider looking at the situation with a different lens and see if that new perspective positively impacts your mood or causes you to think differently about the situation or experience. For example,  you can reframe situations by viewing problems as opportunities and mistakes as chances to grow.
