1. Remember human beings work well under pressure.
Some of us naturally know how to work well under pressure. Even those who are not so naturally gifted learn to adapt. Because we are survivalists, we love challenge and we like to accomplish difficult tasks that keep us going. Hence, people mostly succeed rather than fail under pressure.
So, donât view pressure as a negative, but rather embrace it and see it as an opportunity.

2. Evaluate the challenges and the risks
Evaluation usually gives us the methods to handle pressure. Once our minds are clear, we can think of solutions rather than of the problem itself.
One of the main factors to consider in avoiding pressure is saying ânoâ as much as you say âyes.â If you know that a task can be done, then it will be done. If you think it can't be done, this evaluation gives you the opportunity to turn it around and figure out a way that it can be done.

3. Ask ahead, " What if ?"
Your initial plan might change from one stage to another, or even fail altogether, but the ability to change lanes quickly and accurately is key. Have a recovery plan or two in mind when you first start planning for a challenge ahead. Think of alternatives; even if you donât need them, they will help you to handle pressure well, and you will be ready for the unforeseen.

4. Maintain control over yourself
Your reactions to different challenges are part of the learning process, and it is sometimes necessary to take a step back when up against a challenge. Make sure to ask the right questions, which will enable you to understand your opportunities better, even in the middle of difficult situations. This way, you maintain control, solve problems, and set an example for your team.

5. The way you do anything is way you do everything
The way that you deal with pressure at work will enable you to handle the pressure in personal situations. If you can master handling pressure in one arena, you will learn to rise above challenges, grow, and move upwards and onward. Eventually, those tiring times will be a great source of pride.
