Give a justified reason

You should give a concrete and justified reason why you are saying No. Let them understand you have already prioritised work which you can't avoid.

Reframe your phrasing

You have to keep a check on your tone while having conversation with your boss regarding this. Explain to them your pointers for saying No.

Propose an alternative

If you are not agreeing with your boss to work on certain things, then it’s always a better idea to propose an alternative option to them.

Be empathetic

Always try to understand the other person’s point of view and why they are giving you that work. If you immediately say ‘No’ then it will sound rude.

Ask for their help

If you feel over burnered then ask for help from your co-workers or team mates. It shows that you care about your work and you are serious about it.

Offer to share the load

There is no hard and fast rule that only you will do all the work, ask your manager to share the load which demonstrates your ability to shine.

Keep feelings out of it

Don’t include your personal problems in your professional life. Your personal life problems have nothing to do with your office work.
