I try to get people to laugh, and not sweat the small things. I try to tell them to not to worry about the "what if's" and concentrate on the "what you know" and deal with that first.

Our emotions are triggered by certain values, beliefs or experience. When the emotions touch the sensitive area we then can experience these emotions. Our goal is to be in control of our destiny with emotions. Recognizing our own sensitivity we can begin to control the emotional outcomes.

Teaching students to not procrastinate is the key to making the finish line. When you start early reduces the stress.

Most of the time I handle stress by working out or listening/creating to music.
I believe that goal setting and organization are also very important. If students plan how they are going to accomplish all of their assignments in a timely manner. They will not be as anxious when the deadline approaches.

It is good to have a little competitive attitude in us. This takes away the stress level and allows us to concentrate on the prize is your achievement. Keep after it until you achieve the goal.
Dr. Gary Carlson
Work place stress is the most annoying of all stresses, for some it is the ever present remider that we need this job! Sometimes I imagine the goals I have are part of a game, its the next level that I have to reach in order to progress. By seeing it as a game it relaxes me to think I have another life so if it doesn't get accomplished on this try it will on the next or the next or the next. If all else fails just imagine throwing all your work up in the air and it neatly replacing itself with the task at hand accomplished, believe it or not the image of seing your task finished gives you a sense of accomplishment and you actually finish with ease instead of stress.

A good sense of humor makes your challenges seem enjoyable. Everyone in the team enjoys the sense of humor a leader may have. The important part is when laughing it is not at someones expense.
