Remember this secret equation for peak performance…

E + R = O

Event + Response = Outcome

Much of success comes from our reactions in situations. If you lose a point or miss a shot, much of the time, it’s your reaction that will determine your results. Will you think a negative thought or a productive thought? Will you get frustrated or fascinated?

A friend of mine who plays in the Yankees organization once said that sometimes you may only have 70 percent of your game, but if you use 100 percent of that 70 percent, you can still win. The key is your response, or adjustments towards the event/situation.

We don’t have control over many of the events that occur, but we have total control over our response. As a result, we will have more favorable outcomes.
