Quais são as maneiras mais eficazes de gerenciar o estresse ao trabalhar em um projeto com um prazo apertado?

One of the main thing is how much you can maintain your cool, as there will be conflicts, blockage, lot of UI iterations and UX principles you need to follow. The way is to maintain a team environment where you maintain cool, your team maintains their cool mind & always look at the possible solutions not the complexity of problems. & yeah planning ahead is one way but when you works things always doesn't go as planned. At that time just stick to your plan & maintain a clear communication across team & smartly delegate the work.

Planning for different paths always help. You and your team should consider B- C plans as well as an A plan. The worst case scenarios is crucial to discuss at the beggining stage. So everyone feels confident when they face them.

In my experience, communicating well means, among other things, getting used to (and getting the team used to) being specific in messages: For example: - instead of saying: "I'm looking at the issue", say: "I'll get back to you on X day", - instead of "you should do X...", express in the first person: "I will do this...". - Do not say: "this is the best there is", but: "according to criterion X, given context C, this initiative Z can work, in my opinion".

Communication is helpful if only you assure people about the solutions and or process. A clear communication with the client improves the trust. On the other hand, if the deadline is tight, communication is crucial with the team. Misunderstandings, weak information etc. will end up with loss of time and also increase the level of stress

Una buena práctica es que ante un momento de ansiedad cortar con el ruido mental subiendo y bajando escaleras, ayuda a equilibrar los hemisferios cerebrales y disminuir la rumiación.

It's hard to take a break when the deadline is approaching. In fact, sometimes it may even be contraindicated. Anyway, following contributions from behavioral economics (Richard Thaler, Daniel Kanheman), keep in mind when planning your tasks that we have several mental biases that lead us to wrongly value the future capacity of free time to do tasks that we are postponing today. That's why we procrastinate, too. Don't underestimate how busy you can be in the future and divide breaks and hard work in a healthy way between the present and the future!

What works for me is to take a deep breath, gain some distance, look at myself in the mirror and think about what I could do differently, because what is clear to me is that I have to modify something so that the results are different, as Albert Einstein rightly said. "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results"

When working on a project, stressed out it is hard to think about rewards and celebrations. However, having something you are really looking forward to gives a perspective-as you may feel life is all about the project while you are giving your 100% to it-and helps you work with calm. Make your rewards about the conclusion as success may come later and you. Do your best when working and when resting. Balancing will avoid burnout and lower cortisol levels helps with creativity.

As a psychologist, one of my main pieces of advice is to increase your awareness of your personality aspects and how they condition your time management: For example: (a) if you have a tendency "to anxiety", you are likely to rush processes, b) if you feel fear, to avoid important tasks, c) if you are a perfectionist, micro-management may slow you down, d) if you find it difficult to say "no" to authority figures, you will be late to meet all commitments. Don't stop working on your emotional intelligence and you will see how you will manage deadlines better!
