⏰ 5 Tips for the habitually late ⏰steemCreated with Sketch.

in #freedom7 years ago

I am notorious for being late! Somehow 5 minutes turns into an hour and next thing I know, I’m late to my next event. Well, I’m sick of being late and missing out on all the fun! Here are 5 methods I use to help keep me from constantly running late.

#1. Prioritize timeliness
Making being on time a priority. When you place emphasis on a subject matter, it will more likely happen.

#2. Lie to yourself
If you are habitually an hour late, when you make plans with others, pretend the meet up time is an hour before the real meetup. This will give you time to continue with your usual routine and make it on time!

#3. Think about others
Time is precious, not just to you, but to whoever you are meeting up. Be respectful of another person’s time by showing up!

#4. Prepare
Sometimes I’m late because I’m not prepared. If you know that you are going to be meeting someone and you need x,y and z, don’t wait last minute to grab everything. If you have everything ready, you won’t have to panic when you can’t find it.

#5. Plan for the worst
Are you tired of missing a flight because of traffic? I am! LOL Traffic can totally prevent you from being on time. You should allocate time for hiccups during your trip to your destination.

Did you know that the person who are always late are more creative in nature?

I did not know that, but it makes sense, because creative people tend to not be so ridged and rule following. Thanks for the thought! :)

Because you always find something new to create or to think about before going to your appointment . :D

@karensuestudios and @troilo Thanks for the compliment,haha kidding. Even I am too lazy and i always try to find out something shortcut for everything.

ahahah how did you know? :) aww good to hear from you! btw are you going to Steemfest?

I am always late as well, every - single - day I come too late to class, so stupid haha, but I'll try to better myself with these tips, tanks!

hahah yes, actively trying to overcome lateness is the only way to changing a bad habit! Good Luck!

your never late if your not trying to be on time you always arrive when the moment presents

wwoowwwww fantastic post and good love 💙💙

Karen, is that you with the amazing stand? Nice! About getting late, I was about 4 hours late today... from office... Tell me more about being late... Haha!

Nice tips for lazy people.

hahhaa. It happens! :) I've over slept before and been late to work.

Oh, I was too late! And now I just do not meet anyone! LOL In fact, now everything is solved with the help of Google maps, where I can lay the exact route and know when I need to exit. Oh yeah, I do not drive anymore! 😍😍😘😗😙😚🤗🤗

oh man! I wish I didn't have to drive... it would save me so much time, I get lost even with google maps. lol

I do #2 to myself all the time. sometimes it works, sometimes its not 🙈 Its easy to make a plan and start getting ready earlier, but if my mind is somewhere else and I'm in a mood of "I have nothing to wear" or "I look fat in everything" then no planning will help me 😂

awww right! I've been there too. LOL

Hey there! Sorry I'm late with this reply! LOL! As usual, have a great time today!

:-O A Marilyn-like dress!

(almost)

As always you give great tips! And your so cute in that dress 👗!

Aww thank you! How have you been? ❤
