Change your outlook
It doesnt mean you should change the way you look but of mindset. When situations arises, thoughts are often drifted more on negative side than on positive side. Changing our outlook on the stress will give you the chance to channel the energy into positive side. You are less likely to perceive or feel overwhelmed.
Identify what is in your control
The more you realize that you do not have control over every situation that happens, the better for you. You should focus on the things you can control in workplace such as your performance and decision and also should know that you cannot control what others think and do
Priortize your work and yourself
You have responsibility of maintaining your mental health. Priortizing your work involves, the way you manage your emails, projects and phone calls while priortizing yourself involves managing Breaks, meal start or end time etc

Division of labour at workplace can save a huge time and relieve stress. You should identify the the task you can do and the once others can help you do.
