A seemingly innocuous request such as “Can you help me for a moment?” can cause people to hesitate to refuse, leading them to take on tasks beyond their remit. Over time, this pressure builds and turns into a habit of taking on other people's workloads. While supporting colleagues is important, professional work also requires clear boundaries. Knowing when to say “no” helps protect one’s time and energy, as well as the value of one’s work.
Saying “no” does not mean being unwilling to cooperate. It is a way of placing responsibility where it belongs, thereby making work processes more transparent and fair. This is particularly significant when it comes to urgent requests outside working hours or near holidays. Providing a polite and clear response allows individuals to remain respectful while avoiding the perception of taking on extra work. These insights will be shared in the program, featuring actress Nguyen Huyen Trang and MC Huyen Trang, also known as Mu Tat.
“The Little Miracles” airs at 20:50 tonight (April 21) on VTV3 and VTVgo.
