I don't love them, but I'm good at them. They call for focus, organization skills, and sometimes sacrifice. You have to cut out distractions, work smart, be there and make it happen. Tight deadlines reveal a lot about your skills and your ability to adapt.
They're not ideal, of course and they shouldn't be the default. But sometimes, urgent situations pop up, and that's when you need to step up. Most importantly, people remember these moments - the times you showed up and delivered.
Emergencies demand quick thinking and fast action. They're tough, but they build resilience. And while they shouldn't be your whole story, they do leave a mark on how people see you and how you see yourself.
