What other words we could use instead of as soon as possible?

Unlike what you feel, as soon as possible is not considered rude. The abbreviated asap is very common in business emails and is accompanied with a 'Please' to convey the sense of polite urgency. One alternative to asap is at the earliest. Please finish this task as soon as possible at the earliest.

Instead of as soon as possible, you could use other phrases like:
- at the earliest: Please finish this task at the earliest.
- by [date and/or time]: Please finish this task by tomorrow, at 9 pm.
- at your soonest possible convenience: Please finish this task at your soonest possible convenience.
You could even add a considerate 'could' or 'would' at the start of your sentence.
- Could you please finish this task at the earliest?
- Would you be able to finish this task by tonight?
