5. Take Time to Focus: Maintain performance and stamina during periods of high demand and be able to think clearly and logically under pressure.
6. Don’t should on yourself: Staying honest about who you are and being the best you can be to engage stress and grow from setbacks and disruption.
7. Don’t go it alone: Build strong supportive relationships with colleagues and the members of their teams and know when and where to ask for help when it is needed.
