With all that’s happened in 2020, it’s easy to slip into a negative mindset, but to come out smiling on the other side, we have to stop allowing ourselves to be victims and start being the victors. We are in control of our lives and we can choose to be optimistic.   We can’t change the fact that the world is changing, but we can actively decide to change with it. Let’s use this time to reinvent ourselves, while having fun doing it.   How can we create a more positive mindset amidst the craziness?   On this episode, Broker/Owner of Network Team Homes Realty and Executive Distributor at SendOutCards, Gayle Zientek shares how to cultivate a stronger mindset.  Three Things You’ll Learn in This Episode    Adapt to the new normal It’s easy to spiral into a negative mindset if we think about all the changes going on in our world, but we can choose to look past them.
