One key skill I’ve learnt over the years is learning when to say NO.

At university, it might be saying no to another society commitment when you have three deadlines. At work, it might be being honest that you don’t have capacity to take on another task without something else being pushed back.

Like most people I would often say yes because I wanted to be helpful and avoid disappointing someone. But saying yes to everything can quickly mean spreading yourself too thin.

Saying no doesn’t mean you’re lazy, difficult or not a team player. Sometimes it simply means recognising your limits and managing your time properly.
