Misplacing things-The most common reason as to why you’re always running late, not only to work but everywhere! Lost your keys? Wallet? Phone? Sunglasses? Socks? Everything? Goddammit! Why don’t you just work in the lost and found department instead? Just kidding! But seriously, this will only cause frustration and you will end up being late. It’s high time you start organizing things and keep them at a place where it is easy for you to locate and get your hands on.

4. Do not underestimate time:

If you are a tardy person, you can definitely relate to this. One of the potential reasons you’re always late is that maybe you underestimate the time it takes you to get things done. Always underestimating the time and leaving things for the last minute can be problematic and therefore needs to be fixed. Your planning skills might need some work.

You don’t love waiting but you don’t mind keeping others waiting. Feeling uneasy about being early is quite normal. Most of them feel it and that’s why it is always advised to be on time, neither too early nor too late.
