Although I have been improving at being punctual lately, definetly I still have to make more progress.
My goal: not only being punctual, but, what’s more, being with a lot of time in advance at places.
-Reasons:1:punctuality / 2. Eliminate the stress which is caused because of being a lot of times running to the places.

I have been chronically late most of my life, it seems….mostly by 5-10 minutes, but late nonetheless. I realize its impact on my life and relationships, and always vow to do better. I make changes, and somehow I don’t continue the good habit long enough for it to “stick.” I finally have a job I like and value, and don’t want to screw it up with the boss and my coworkers. I’m going to try the tip I read about telling myself my appointment time is 15 minutes earlier than it is, so that even if I am late for that, I will still be early for the appointment. Starting today.

Namely, show up to class on time.
I’m usually just a minute or so late. In order to do this goal, I’m guessing I have to start walking at an earlier time… which would also mean I’d have to get up a bit earlier… but how bad can it be?

This past week, I was late once I believe, a little bit under five minutes. Not so terrible.

I am always late for work – even if it’s just 5 minutes. In past jobs it was because I didn’t really care and it was a symptom of unhappiness or not giving a shit. I actually like my new job and get treated very well but I’m still in the same bad habit of being late. I really don’t want to give my boss any reason to not be happy with me. I need to get more organised and stop dilly-dallying about when I’m geting ready. I also need to make sure I am getting enough sleep (another bad habit!!)

The week of the 9th I believe, I was late four days out of five. It was one of those weeks where I felt I was rushing every morning. That wasn’t pleasant of course. The latest was probably 15 minutes or so. Last week, I made it on time every day. I really think that to be consistent, for me, a combination of better planning, getting to bed earlier, waking up when planned and having an efficient morning routine would help. It may sound like a lot, and it can be done without all of these things, but I think each of these things serves its purpose and in the end, once they become routine, it is like second nature and you are naturally successful.

Sigh. Well last week, I believe I was late twice. I can’t remember the first as well, but the second was in part due to my waking up late. It was the latest I had ever woken up. I sat up and couldn’t figure out what I should do. I went as quickly as I could and ended up being about ten minutes late which was quite surprising really. It could have been worse but still, I didn’t feel great about it. I didn’t even have the heart to apologize that time.
This week I was doing okay, though today it was a couple of minutes past by the time I entered the office. It wasn’t so bad, I know, but I am still counting it.
It really isn’t so complicated, so when will I get this?

It was better. Fortunately, four days out of five I was on time. The one day I wasn’t was due to the metro being stalled. I still need to work on this.

I didn’t do so well. Four out of five days I was late, ranging from a few to five minutes but still. This week I am hoping to do better and day 1 was a success. Tomorrow I hope to arrive at the metro about a good 20 minutes earlier than I have been so I can enjoy the ride (as much as I can) without constantly checking my watch. Didn’t check as often today, and it was a nice break.
