financial, e.tc. One thing that remains constant is, stress is inevitable but
highly manageable. It can be controlled and put on a level that will not lead
to serious complications. So just key into these tips and deal with that
stress.
1.
Know when to relax, adjust and get away from constant pressure. The body has its limit, like a rubber that breaks if pulled beyond its elastic limit. That is exactly how the body works. Once you have taken the mind, body and soul beyond that threshold, then it will surely carve in. Lack of break time or relaxation time predisposes you to stress, which may escalate into depression. There will be a point that you know the pressure or stress is getting out of hand, don’t ignore it. That is the time to apply some brakes, relax and reflect on other things apart from those things that you do normally.
2.
Understand yourself, know how you were made or
build mentally, emotionally and psychologically. Are you someone that cracks at
the sight of pressure or maybe you are the type that performs under pressure.
When you know your kind of person, so try to work according to how it works
best for you. With this you are able to manage stress better.
3.
Do not try to achieve so much at a little time
or at one time. Take one step at a time; put everything you want to do under a
well guided and structured plan.
4.
Avoid accumulating work or procrastination.
Pile up work puts you under unnecessary pressure which might lead to stress.
Do what you have to do at the time that you should do it.
5.
Find and put to use the easiest way out to do a
particular task. As long as the way or method doesn’t compromise on quality and
accuracy. It is better to you the easiest way to solve the hardest task.
6.
Work on your body and mind. Engage in quality
exercise, eat healthy, reshape and refocus your mind.
7.
Learn to socialize, hang out and be around
people that makes you forget about work. Don’t be too rigid and extremely
serious to give a smile.
8.
Stop to catch your breath in between, come back to
earth and refill your mind with positive thoughts
9.
Never use your break, relaxation or vacation
time to work. See the break like a time to sleep, read, listen to music, take a
nap, and have a chat that is totally outside work. This helps to defuse the tension
of stress.
10.
Always try to finish and end the day’s work that
very day. Don’t form the habit of transferring work through the day. This helps
to relax your mind for other thoughts and activities.
11.
Do not use anything addictive to fight or manage
stress. It may boomerang and cause more problem to your body and mind. So just
take things easy and slow.
