Work stress

[ZandraJoi]

How do you deal with work stress? While I don't work anymore, when I did, I had a hard time keeping work at work & home at home. As I got older, what helps generally is Priorities. If you focus all your time & energy on something else (work, exes, whatever is draining you), you won't have the time to focus on those who love & support you. Life is too short. Spend that time with the people who love you & you love. Even if it's a spouse, furkids, human kids. Focus your time on THEM. & most importantly, on your own self for Self-Care.
How do you manage your stressors from your job?

I was able to understand early on in life that working and keeping it at work is very important. I didn't want work to stress me much. So, I do my part and rest when it is needed.

I try to not let the bad days get me worked up. I also look at the smaller picture rather than the big one if I feel that I'm getting overwhelmed. For example, if I'm running the Eagle at work I will focus more on the fewer trays of mail first and then eventually when I work my way to the po boxes that have more trays, I just tackle it one at a time rather than looking at how many trays I have left to run. I also try not to let mistakes ruin my day, I made a mistake this morning at work but it was hard to shake off that feeling that I messed up. I'm just lucky it wasn't too much work I messed up but still...

I don't really have any work stress as I work from home. I signed a lucrative contract and always exceed my quotas. The firm is lucky to have me working for them and they know that. The big boss hates me because he thinks that I am arrogant, but cannot dispute that I am the ultimate problem solver, so he has no choice but to put up with me.

You will experience work stress in three conditions, one, you are in the job you do not like, two, you have toxic work environment, and there, you are over working. If you are battling work stress, you will first have to see why you have that in the first place. There is nothing that cannot be solved.
