When opportunities keep being thrown your way, how do you choose when to say no?
#8
What a fantastic array of incredible opportunities you've been given - that's a significant problem, even if it's understandable to feel concerned about taking on too much. My suggestions would be to see if there's any way you can stagger starting the different commitments to spread them out more, and be upfront about your obligations in case any deadlines can slightly push back, while prioritizing the career-building networking prospects like the webinar and certification panel. However, don't compromise your grades or self-care - check in after a few weeks to see how you're feeling, and if something has to give, there's no shame in politely declining further. These seem like opportunities that will still be there later, and you've got an impressive career ahead, so don't burn out before it starts!
