You never want to tell your boss that you can’t do something. In fact, at times you probably feel honored and good about the fact that he or she thinks you can handle so many responsibilities; but sometimes, it’s crucial to communicate that your workload is too much.

You know your workload is too much when you are making Excel documents in your dream. You know your workload is too much when you are watching TV and words like “revenue” and “products” appear louder than the rest. You know your workload is too much when you keep checking your work email …on the weekends.

There is a difference between being dedicated to your work and being overwhelmed by your workload. When it does get overwhelming, its important (and healthy) to communicate your needs to your boss.
