When you persuade yourself that you “get to” do something rather than “have to,” you can find a silver lining. For instance, saying “I have to clean the house” implies cleaning is an unpleasant task. On the other hand, saying “I get to clean the house” reframes the labor as something you look forward to, emphasizing how important it is to have a place to live in the first place. A great strategy to change your perspective and enhance your mental health is to reframe the tasks you encounter in daily life with a positive outlook.”

Reframe obstacles into challenges and the stress will dissolve completely. For instance, an embarrassing moment at work can seem funny when put in a long-term frame.

Reframing is one of the most powerful tools you can implement to change your state of mind.”
