Reduce Office Stress With Novelty Computer PANIC Key

    LIVINGSTON, TX, May 04, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Ever been frustrated while working at your computer? Don't Panic! Instead, push your very own bright red, actual computer key imprinted with "PANIC". Double backed adhesive lets you attach the novelty computer key to any item that gives you frustration. (Including the forehead of eye-rolling teenagers).

We've all felt cranky when dealing with stress...from being up all night with a feverish baby to dealing with crashed computers. "Studies show humor reduces stress and increases productivity," says Silvana Clark, author and professional speaker. "Rather than getting a headache and feeling overwhelmed, try some of these stress reduction techniques that add light-heartedness to your day."

Pinpoint the problem causing you stress. Some people complain, "My teenager is driving me crazy!" While it's true teens can push their parent's buttons, narrow down exactly what is stressing you. Is it your teen's sloppy bedroom? Their one-word answers? Failing grades? When you pinpoint the cause of stress, you have a better chance of solving the problem.

Get enough sleep. Yes, you've heard that advice from every self-help book and doctor. That's because a proven stress reduction technique simply involves getting enough sleep so you have the strength to think clearly.

Start being assertive. You have more power over your life than you think. Tell your co-worker you won't write their report for them. Let the PTA know you'll make a monetary contribution to the new playground but you won't serve on the construction crew.

Stop multi-tasking! Studies show people are more efficient when staying with one task until it's completed.

Find a way to add a little humor to your day. Keep a book of funny cartoons or humorous sayings in your desk. Buy a Page-A Day calendar with funny pictures. Don't forget about a novelty computer key such as the PANIC button or WHATEVER key. www.panicbuttons.com
