In my last post, I talked about whyΒ being punctual matters. The short version: people who are habitually late (or are late even once, when it counts) project incompetence, self-centeredness, and even a lack of integrity.
In the comments, lapka asked if there were any tricks for people who have a hard time showing up on time, and through a little bit of research and a little bit of self-examination, I think I have some answers.
First of all, though,Β itβs important to see being on time as part of your whole attitude towards time.Β Youβre never going to be on time, every time β whether for appointments, meeting big deadlines, or even to catch a movie β if you havenβt put into practice a set of good time management techniques.
