BRIEF SUMMARY

What does A, B and C stand for? The letter A stands for adversity or the activating event. Letter B stands for beliefs of the person. These beliefs dictate the person’s response to A. The letter C represents consequences. According to Doctor Ellis, the person’s B or belief system eventually decides how they would react to A., or the problem at hand. This will directly influence C, which is the consequence.It is the irrational belief that makes them respond in the manner in which they did not, to the adverse situation. This realisation can change the way in which they respond to stressful situations and help make the most out of their lives.
