I don’t deny that my life is full of pressure from all sides. It became clear to me after completing these tests. However, these pressures are usually at A relatively moderate value for me. My personality, which is more like Type B than Type A, also makes me more tolerant and optimistic about the current pressure.
To better manage this stress and keep me as active as possible in my life and work, I looked up some viable tips on the Internet. On the corporate side, managers can lead by example to encourage employees to exercise physically to keep fit. Provide necessary health care for employees, shape corporate culture and business goals that include personal health goals, and hire experts to promote corporate health programs. Promoting these measures not only helps employees to keep healthy but also helps to release the existing life and work pressure through physical exercise. That’s what some companies are doing.
Some steps to take will also help me with my stress management. First, I need to identify the sources of my stress, determine the different influences on my work and life, and seek appropriate coping methods. Secondly, I must keep some healthy living habits even in the face of tremendous pressure. In other words, not just indulgent or repressed, but proper relaxation. Then, we can separate work and life into two distinct areas to avoid mixing stress and conflict. At the same time, we can enrich ourselves in work and life to prevent the annoyance brought by the constant indulgence of pressure. In addition, when we feel we are not coping, we can talk to our supervisors, health professionals, and friends instead of just pouring out negative feelings. These methods will help me manage stress and maintain a good mental state.
