What is the best way of managing excessive work demands??

Planning & prioritising. There's only so much you can do and some things are more important than others. Always make sure that you're able to tell someone you can't take on any more work at the moment, or if there might be a delay or potential problem with a deadline.

Goal charts, limit caffeine to avoid anxiety, and breathing. Meditation helps to keep you focused and light on your feet

The best way I manage excessive work demands are by getting a calendar and marking each day I have something due. After that I plan how I am going to prepare and complete each task. I create checklists to make sure I am on track and that I have completed each part of the task that I need to complete.

We simply need to firmly say no and explain the need for a sustainable workload and balanced life. Most people will respect your position. Stand firm and watch out for those 'exceptions' that are becoming regular. Know what is good for you and figure out a way to express it assertively. If something is truly important then your boss can explain which of your other responsibilities can be reduced to compensate. Nobody wins if you burn out.

Your options include getting as early a start as you can, delegating tasks if possible, hiring a temporary staff member or contractor, and communicating frankly with your boss — again as soon as possible — if the workload expected is too much. If you negotiate with your boss, you can respectfully convey what a reasonable timeline and expectations would be, and what demands require more hands on deck. Good luck, and I hope you take good care of yourself in your off hours, to offset your stress.

I think that you should try & handle the demands in a timely fashion & to the best of your ability, But if that doesn't work, & you know that you don't deserve whatever is going on, then you should talk to your boss in a respectful way about how your work performance is. That'll most likely let you know if you're pulling off the demands well or not.

The best way of managing excessive work demands is to take it step by step and tackle the small things first, working your way up to the big things.

You could try to treat yourself to something nice and take a breather. It's a lot of pressure fulfilling work demands

Prioritize the tasks in the order of importance (as determined by your boss). Start with the highest priority tasks first, then work your way down to the bottom of the list. Stay organized and try to do two or three easier tasks at once to maximize efficiency and stay on top of things. And if all else fails, you can explain to your boss that you're feeling overwhelmed, falling behind and would benefit from strategies for managing the work load. Bosses like employees who are responsible and proactive enough to address these concerns before they start affecting performance.

make a to do list and mark off when you finish something. this will keep you aware what you have done and what you need to do still. With me there is satisfaction and relief each time I mark something off.
