At one point I switched to, “I won’t be able to do that.” Seems to invite fewer questions.
This is the way. Switching to a more accurate reason is also a way of accepting the fact you are low on energy. Its a step towards improvement :)
A business-coded variant you can use if you want is “I don’t have the bandwidth for that”. It’s been effective for me so far.
Depending on who I am talking to I might say “I don’t have the energy.”
Every second of your schedule IS accounted for. You’re just ignoring the required downtime that you need between things you’re doing.
This is a nice way of putting it

I don’t know what that means. Personally I wouldn’t explain, and I certainly wouldn’t post about it on Twitter. That’s the limp part.
If you’re going to water down the phrase by misusing it then you should expect confusion. Especially when its just as easy to give an answer that isn’t a lie.
It’s not a lie, it’s a phrase. Phrases can man different things depending on context. When someone says they didn’t have time, often they just mean they’re over burdened.
