QUICK TIPS: TAKE A BREAK

That's right! I used the "B" word. Take a BREAK from what you're doing! This is really good advice when you're feeling stressed. Sometimes, we do more harm than good by continuing to plug away at something when we are feeling swamped. I can tell you from experience,when you look at a document for too long, your eyes will sometimes see what they expect to be there--not what's really on the page. It’s amazing what errors, inconsistencies, and omissions you will find when you review your work with fresh eyes. You may also find new ways to improve your work, once you’ve stepped away from the assignment for a little while. So, don’t sit there agonizing over a work project. Step away, take a break (even 5 minutes), and get back to it. P.S. If you're agonizing about your work on your break...it's not a break! Think about something else, go have a brief chat with a coworker or quickly step outside for some fresh air.
