Obviously the best way to stop stressing is to start up a new, completely unrelated task. You’ll definitely finish this other task and carry that momentum forward to finish the original task. Rinse and repeat as many times as necessary.

The tasks are never complete. It is an illusion that you can complete all the tasks, while actually you can’t. That’s what creates the stress. Understanding that it is an illusion can help removing the stress
