Outdoor Education…Character development through the outdoors
Having a 'Positive Mindset' is the practice of focusing on the good in any given situation. It can have a big impact on your physical and mental health. It means you approach the good and the bad in life with the expectation that things will go well. You may not be able to change the situation, but you can change the way you perceive it.
