using break in the form of goto in java

Question

I am creating a GUI for a project. I have a small problem. How does one implement the reset option? I have created a button at the bottom. And when I click the button, I should be able to move up the code. I tried using a label. But I guess labels used in the main code cannot be used within the actionPerformed() method of the reset button. Is there any alternative?

EDIT - I'm still working on the code. But here is the part of the code that I'm having trouble with. I've mentioned the label as --LABEL--

Maybe you should create a function my_fn() which is executed first and contains all the other method calls, initialisation etc.

When you click on the reset button you can call this method.
