To help more young professionals overcome workplace stress, the firm have revealed some of the ways they encourage their contractors to destress.

Don't try to tough it out

Many professionals, especially those pursing entrepreneurship believe the only way to overcome stress is to suck it out and tough it out. However whilst this determination is positive, forcing themselves to continue in such conditions can destroy motivation and their passion for their work. Instead, O'Connor Marketing believe that taking a more mindful approach is key. By taking a step back and thinking about the source of the stress, and then trying to look at it from a new perspective can help a professional survive even during the most demanding of times.

Get Out

Taking a break is often overlooked and too many professionals are guilty of working during their down time. Whilst this often gives the illusion of productivity, it can actually cause far more harm than good. Even if this simply means a quick change of scenery, getting out of the regular work environment frees the mind and offers the opportunity for more creative thinking.

Say No

In a stressful environment, saying no can be incredibly powerful. Professionals often put too much on their plate and overstretch themselves. Having a schedule that is too overwhelming can cause increased stress and create a negative mindset. Instead, professionals need to assess their time realistically and only take on the tasks they feel confident they can complete.
