Stress at workplace has now become a common phrase. Stress is
good as long as it is in limits. Excessive stress not only influences
professional life but it also affects our personal life.
Recently I met one of my friends, who so stressed out at his
workplace that he made his personal life a hell. He got married for just two
years only and now his married life has come to an end. Sounds odd? But it is true. When
I met his wife who is also a friend of mine told me that he used to remain so
stressed that he started to torture her emotionally. Due to the hectic schedule
of corporate life he used to drench out all his frustration on his wife.
I repeat, stress is good as long as it is in the comfort
zone. More than that it can lead to depression, fatigue, loosing concentration, irritation
and many more such syndromes follow. While working as a journalist in a daily newspaper I had to
maintain a tough schedule. So I adopted few tricks to remain hassle free. Here
are some tips for you, as it works for me.
Move Your Body
No matter how busy you
are. Take out at least 30 minutes for
exercise. Start your day with little bit workout (may be just free hand exercise, walking). It helps to increase
your energy. Also walking (cardio vascular exercises) helps in concentration and you can also relax physically
and mentally.
Be Positive, Increase Self-Belief
It is very important to
keep a positive attitude in office. Slash
down all the negative thoughts like, “can I complete the project”, “can I
meet the target” etc. Never doubt yourself. Just keep in mind that you can do it. Positive thought will help
you to increase your confidence.
Work for Yourself
Never work to impress your
boss. The pressure of impressing boss will leave you nowhere. Work for yourself so that you can learn
something. It will later help you in your life. Just love your work. Try to bring some innovation in your work so
that you never get bored.
Take a Break
Yes, it is important to take a short break in between your work.
Close your eyes and stretch your arms and legs in between your work. In between
you can also text sweet message to beloved one. This short break actually helps
you to focus in your work.
Positive Relation
Maintain positive relation with
other staff. Lunch time at office is a good opportunity to build friendship
with others. Share your meal as well as your thoughts with your colleagues. Try
to help them in their crisis period. Supportive
and caring friends are very important to curb down stress at workplace. If
you support them at their emergency then they will definitely stand by you.
Good Planning
If you are pissing off with a large project then break it and complete it step by step. Good planning is vital before you progress with your work. Arrange
your work according to priority.
Eat Well, Sleep Well
Avoid too much oily food or junk food. Don’t forget to keep fruits salad
in your diet. Even if you have a shifting duty, set your timing in such a way so
that you can have at least seven hours for sound sleep.
