From Chaos to Control: HOW TO BE RESILIENT TO WORKPLACE STRESS

Some people are finding it harder than ever to deal with the challenges at work, while others are sailing through with ease. The #1 factor that determines how well you perform under stress is your ability to cope with it—not specific job conditions or the amount of pressure you face.

1. Take control of political situations that cause worry about how you are perceived
2. Keep your internal mental messaging motivated, positive, and creative and bypass fear and negativity
3. Insulate yourself and your team from overwork, workload excesses, and shifting priorities
4. Energize yourself when worn down and achieve calm when overwhelmed
5. Remain poised and not respond emotionally—to turn politics in your favor
6. Reverse or greatly diminish physical symptoms related to stress
7. Sleep well through the night and get back to sleep soon if you awaken
