'outlooks' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'watches over place' is the wordplay.
'watches' becomes 'minds' (minding is a kind of watching).
'over' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'place' becomes 'set' ('set' can be a synonym of 'place').
'minds' going around 'set' is 'MINDSETS'.

'with' is the link.
