How to Manage Your Response To Workplace Stress

We spend approximately 70 percent of our lives at work. It’s no wonder, then, why our careers are a defining aspect of our identities and our initial emotional response at times can be out of proportion.?

But there’s great risk in letting work become all of who you are.?

When you are too emotionally invested in work, you may take failures, challenges, and feedback personally.?

For example, you may:

• Take criticism personally and ruminate about it for days?
• Struggle to enjoy your downtime
• Fear you’re not working “hard enough”
• Become a people-pleaser and overwork yourself
• Project your workplace stress onto your personal relationships

By noticing where you might be emotionally overinvested in your work, you can prioritize where you need to take back control of your life and your well-being.

And my popular Linkedin Learning course, Managing Your Response to Workplace Stress , can help you get there.?
