The dark side to being All In? Feeling pressured to say yes to everything. Saying no isn’t easy, especially in a culture that praises giving your all and being a team player. It can feel like the wrong move if you want to be liked and advance your career. But overcommitting can make your core work suffer and lead to burnout. Respectful boundaries help everyone. They protect your responsibilities while keeping you connected to the team. They help balance expectations and ensure you get your own tasks done right. They turn "that's not in my job description" into: 🤝 “I can’t do justice to your request without affecting my other work.” 🤝 “Your project deserves better focus than I can give right now.” 🤝 “If I helped you, I’d be letting others down.” How do you strike a balance between being a team player and focusing on your current work? HBR has some great ideas, and I’d love to hear your tried and true tips! #WorkLifeBalance #FocusAndFinish #QualtricsLife
