The time you spend at the office may be the most stressful part of your day, but it doesn't have to be. You have a greater ability to shape your office environment than you may realize.
Take breaks throughout the day. It will help clear your mind and relieve pressure. Something as simple as going to the water cooler for a drink may do the trick.
To help your workday go smoothly 1, try pacing your activities: Do more demanding work in the morning, when your energy level is higher, and easier work later in the day, when you may be tired.
Try listening to music recordings 2, such as a pounding surf or songbirds, to help you relax. Such tapes are sold commercially. Use headphones if you'll be listening to them in the middle of the workday.
Get to work early or stay late once a week. You may be able to accomplish more when you vary your routine.
If your stress comes from job insecurity, take stock of yourself.Update your resume, and remind yourself of your skills and strengths. Also, make sure you keep up with new developments in your field. This will make you valuable to employers.
Don't let work rumors 3, which are usually false, cause you worry. A co-worker may just be thinking out loud about worst-case scenarios 4.
在办公室里度过的时光可能是你一天中最紧张的一段时间,但是这种情况是可以改变的.你有很强的能力来营造良好的办公气氛,只是你可能并没有意识到自己的这种能力。
一天中偶尔小憩一会儿，这会使你头脑清醒，并缓解压力，你可以做些简单的事情，例如去冷水机旁喝水，这样就可以达到休息的目的。
为了使你的工作日一切顺利，试着有条不紊地安排工作：上午精力相对充沛时多做一些要求较高的工作；下午感动疲劳时做一些较轻松的工作。
试着听听音乐，这有助于你放松身心，例如听听海浪拍打岩石或鸟儿歌唱的声音。这些磁带市面上都有卖。如果你在工作中听音乐的话，最好使用耳机。
一周中有一天早点上班，晚点下班，通过这种方式来改变日常惯例，这样你可能会完成更多的工作。
如果你的压力来自工作的不安全感，你可以对自己进行评估，更新简历，提高自己自身的技能和实力。当然，你也要确保跟上所在领域的发展，这样可以保证你对于老板来说是有价值的。
不要为了工作中的谣言而烦恼，它们往往是不可信的。你的同事可能只注意到工作中最坏的情况。
