Reframing Your Past: Warrior Mind Podcast #201

This Warrior Mind Podcast is based on the post “Reframing and How to Change Your Past.”

The purpose of this Warrior Mind Podcast is to teach you how to alter your perception of past events that drain you mentally and emotionally.

Have you ever wondered how some people always manage to achieve success in life even when they are going through traumatic events or situations?

What’s their secret?

I’ve researched what the most successful people do when the going gets tough and there’s one killer technique that I’m going to share with you today that you can start using immediately.

It’s called reframing.

Reframing is based on the idea that all meaning depends on your point of view. To reframe something is to change its meaning by putting it in a different setting, context or frame. For instance, a nasty experience can seem funny when put in a long- term frame. It is one of the most useful mental strength techniques.

The meaning of any event depends on how we frame it. When we change the frame we change the meaning and with it our responses and behaviors, effectively changing our past.

Reframing is simply changing the meaning of an event or experience, in the way that placing a picture in a different picture frame somehow changes the look of it.

Human beings are meaning making machines and we learn the meaning of things from an early age from our individual culture and the significant others in our lives. The meaning or ‘frame’ that we place on something has a significant impact on how we respond to it.

Frames are often described as being negative or positive, out of our control or in our control and we come across them in everyday situations. For example:

‘I made a real mess of that’ vs. ‘I did my best and can learn a few things’

‘They made me so angry when they said that’ vs. ‘I chose to let that person wind me up’
