When I'm under time pressure, I stay calm and prioritize tasks to ensure I'm focusing on what's most important. I break down the situation into manageable steps and set clear goals to stay on track. If needed, I communicate with others to get support or clarify expectations. I also make sure to maintain a flexible mindset, knowing that things may not always go as planned, and I adjust as needed to meet the deadlines. This approach helps me stay organized and perform effectively, even in high-pressure situations.
