How to Manage Stress at Work

How to Manage Stress in Office

The most effective method to be an Effective Person while Managing Work and Life 

We are Human Beings, Our lives are bit complicated - we have lot of responsibilities which includes work, family and community. 

To do justice for all the responsibilities, we try to strech the hours in the day, so we try to stretch ourselves thinner, but it doesn't always help us be more effective. Stress builds up and productivity decreases, 

but it doesn't have to....here are some tips. 

Difficulty: Moderately

Easy Instructions 

1. Don't overextend yourself. You can't be all things to all people and be clear with yourself about how much you can do. Resist the temptation to add one more thing to your to do list because it is a 'worthy' project. Are people asking too much of you, isn't that unfair of them? 

2. Get comfortable saying "No". You can say, "I can't do that now" or "I have too many other things to do, and if I take on something else, nothing will get done the way it should". Don't start to believe you can be 'superman' or 'superwoman' - projects or activities will suffer and then you will feel added stress. 

3. Stop doing more than one thing at a time. In taking on more than we can truly handle we try to multitask. What occurs is really that we do a little bit of all the things on our 'to do list' without really completing any project. 

4. Schedule time to take a break. Mark lunchtime on your calendar and leave your office. If you work from home, take time to run errands out of the house or just go for a walk. Make sure to schedule your workday, so you know when you are 'not working' and keep to it. You can't work 24 hours a day - you will resent it and feel added stress, will result in less productive activity. 

5. Don't let technology run your life. Technology should help you be efficient. It isn't necessary to answer every email or voice mail the moment you get it. If you spend two hours before you arrive at work, answering email or returning voice mails it will lead to less effective daily results. Our culture has devalued personal time, yet balancing personal time and work time, truly helps us be more effective. 

6. Keep fear from impacting your decisions. Don't be afraid to tell people you can't do something. People will respect you more for your honesty. At work make sure to tackle your core job responsibilities, but don't take on the responsibilities of others, that may negatively impact the performance of your own work.
