There could be several reasons that may cause you to always be late. This blog will show you some ways to combat them. Begin to think about what reason(s) make you run late. Also, think about ways that you can fix them. Can these strategies help you to feel hopeful, and can you fix your running late problem(s)?
1. YOU GET DISTRACTED
You might be getting distracted when you are getting always ready. You may be pulled into a television show. Of course all of us have that one show we love, and want to complete and catch up on. Perhaps another reason could be that a friend is texting you, and thus you have an urge to text back. Whatever it may be, it can be changed. You have to begin by understating that you can refuse to be involved in activities that distract you from your purpose so that you have more time to get ready, eat, and pack your backpack in the morning. Now you will start to be on time more often!
2. YOU SPEND TOO MUCH TIME DECIDING WHAT TO WEAR
Okay, to be honest, I take a while to decide what to wear in the morning. Naturally, both girls and guys want to look presentable no matter where they are going. In the morning, the decision can be hard because you don’t want to walk out the door in flip flops, zebra print leggings, and a green shirt! To fix this problem decide what you want to wear the night before. In the morning all you have to do is get dressed, and it will save you so much time that would have been consumed in picking the perfect outfit.
3. THINKING THAT OTHERS SHOULD JUST WAIT ON YOU
This is one problem that is a one that is hard to fix. The reason for that is because you have a difficult time managing your time thus leading you to think that others will just wait for you. This can be a deeper problem than just not being on time. It may mean that you think your time is more valuable compared to another person’s. Time is money! I am sure you have heard that line a couple times before; you should understand the other person’s situation and consider them. Inconsiderate behaviour doesn’t leave the best impression on others. When you understand both your needs as well as others you will have a better understanding in time management. There is a mutual benefit for everyone when people are on time.
