When I was working, I handle stress using long and deep breathing and after work I exercised. Exercise is the best way I think to get rid of stress and feel rejuvanated.

For me, stress and pressure are a challenging part of the job because I learn a lot, like using time management, patience and prioritization.

I take a deep breath and dig in.
If it is too much pressure though, I speak to my manager to re-prioritize.

I like this question. You should have the courage to beat the stress and thereby controlling the pressure on your tasks. Since I meant it here in adjective possession, it can be taken as "an art of working under pressure. So many industrialist who were once worked diligently to keep their position at the highest stand. This is off-course applicable of all lucrative employees where there predominant investment towards success in their career is to handle the pressurised situations. 

There are many authors around the world whose contributions thro great many behavioral articles practically letting ourselves much relaxed within the timelimit. One of the best solution I admired a lot thro reading from an article is to break up the time levels and make the working atmosphere more productive. Some technical such as pomodro time method (french) will be very useful for us to manage the pressurised situation.

Slow down a bit! Take a deep breath! Pressures are basically part of the job.
It is where the challenge is.
It is a matter of prioritizing your task and considering the importance of every task assigned to you.
Take pressure as a way to conquer your previous performance! Make your company proud by handling your pressure with ease and with feet still on the ground!

Stress & pressure is common and part of life. The appropriate way to deal with stress is to make sure I have the correct balance between good stress and bad stress. I need good stress to stay motivated and productive.

 

Assess the situation and understand your emotions. In stressful workplace situations, you don't have to react negatively and feel like a victim everytime. How you respond to that stressful situation could make or break you. If you feel like reacting, keep your cool and just try to walk away. Being proactive is the better approach.

 

I actually work better under pressure and I've found that I enjoy working in a challenging environment. I'm the kind of person who stays calm under pressure, and handles stress fairly easily. 

From a personal perspective, I manage stress by visiting the gym every evening. It's a great stress reducer.

Well good question.
First of all we have to analyze what pressure is, okay.
Does it mean overburden.
Does it mean difficult task to achieve.
Does it mean lengthy assignment.
In all these situations, we have to analyze, the basic root or these of assignment or work.
When we feel pressure, we have to also evaluate the senior's point of view.
From our point of view it may be pressure, but from senior,s point of view, task may be absolutely right and achievable.
So as a nut shell, if we think positive, we will not only get rid or pressure, rather will also place crown on our carrier.
Rest assure, professionalism comes in pressure conditions, not in normal conditions.
Thanks.
