suggests thinking of this rule as a mathematical formula(数学公式)：E＋R＝O(Events＋Response＝Outcome)(事件＋反应＝结果)．

　　Most people，Canfield says，focus on outside cause easily-your business isn't doing well，your friend won't talk to you，you were late for a date.You may say："The market is influencing my business.My friend has changed.Traffic made me late."Canfield explains that you give too little care to how much your own response to the event plays a role in the outcome."What creates the outcome is your response to events，"he says.

　　To see this E＋R＝O formula in action，Canfield tells you to imagine an event in which your partner forgets your birthday."Most people would respond，'Oh，I feel bad because that means my husband doesn't love me，'"Canfield says."You could say，'someone who loves me forgot my birthday.Now I'm worried，not feeling bad.'"That changed response could lead to a better outcome.For example，instead of getting into a fight with your partner due to your "feeling bad"，perhaps your worry leads you to have a more meaningful discussion.

　　Finally，Canfield says that the "R" in the formula is a key point to success."We have choices about responses，"he says.
