Five Ideas to Help Prevent Lateness

Arrive early for everything. Making an effort to turn up early for everything is a great rule to have. It’s often said that it’s better to turn up half an hour early than 5 minutes late. It sets a really good first impression.

Make sure you know the correct time. Surround yourself with clocks and that they are accurate so you are in no doubt as to what the time is.

Set your clock 15 minutes fast. On the other hand, another trick is to set your clock fast, so that it makes you get somewhere 15 minutes early. This works for some people.

Factor in the travel time. Always include the time it takes to get to a place and take into account possible delays and things that may prevent you from getting to your destination on time.

Manage your time effectively. Factor in preparation time to allow yourself time to get to where you have to go. If you have to get up earlier then do so to make yourself arrive where you have to on time. It may involve working on improving self discipline as well.
