Stressed at work? Try this...

ZenHabits posted on of the best lists of suggestions about reducing work-related stress in a long time. For example:

Do less. Those of you who know me by now saw this one coming. It’s very difficult to have a relaxed workday if you have too much going on. Instead, learn to reduce what you do, but choose the most impactful tasks and projects — the ones that will mean the most over the long term. I choose three important things to achieve each day, as I’ve said before. Those are the three things I can do today that will have the most impact in my life.

I'd also add one more to the list -- Get one of your MITs (Most Important Tasks) done first thing in the morning before you even check your email. When you sit down at your desk just look at your MITs from the night before and start hammering away on one.

I find if I don’t do this, I get so caught up in the things that pop-up during the day that I end up tackling my MITs at 4pm and it's already too late to make progress. Then I start the next day already behind.

Set your priorities yourself, don’t let others set them for you.
