    i am always late and its starting to become embarassing
    late to lessons

    late seeing my friends
    i always think it will be okay but of course it is not
    its disrespectful also i think
    i will sytart tommorow
    no more lateness



    not bad 2 years ago

    have definitely been more prompt this school year and I’m understanding better when to be tactically late. an ancillary habit – bringing something to do with me so I can be productive while waiting for others to show up.



    now that I'm back home, 2 years ago

    I realize I’m slipping on this again. I have been good about first appointments of the day, and getting to work promptly, but the later it gets, the later I seem to be. Extending the early/on time consciousness past noon should be the next goal…



    group travel 2 years ago

    puts being early or on time into a whole nother perspective. when traveling over the last couple of weeks with students who have been partying all night and independent spirited artist-types and departure times compounded by spotty transportation – i became queen of promptness. And even learned a variety of good waiting songs for singing in groups when you’re just not sure when or if the bus is going to come.



    actually the problem seems to be 2 years ago

    meetings and appointments running overtime and spilling into other things.

    So part of the effort needs to be, end things that are supposed to end on time. Or maybe leave more time in between scheduled appointments. Or some combination thereof.



    ok time to get serious about this. 2 years ago

    Actually, last week I was on time for a meeting and ended up waiting for about 20 minutes for everyone else to get there. Discouraged, I lapsed for the next few appointments.

    But, new resolution: I’ll be early, but bring something to work on or read with me whereever I’m at. Could get a lot of reading done this way.



    the results... 2 years ago

    and I arrived 5 min. early. My hypothesis: If I take the number of minutes that I’d like to arrive early by, multiply by 1.4, and leave that much earlier than I ordinarily would, then I should arrive at the desired time. Should work like a charm! Will continue to test the hypothesis!



    Leaving now, 12 minutes earlier 2 years ago

    than I normally would! let’s see if it gets me there in time…



    Done 2 years ago

    On the whole, I’m now in work about 15 minutes before 9am, and am arriving at all my appointments with 15 to 20 minutes spare. It’s well worth being prepared and being early to avoid last minute stress. It also means that if anything goes wrong (I forget something for instance), I have time to correct it and still be there on time.

    A recommended goal!
