Many people have punctuality issues. If you’re one of these people who are notorious for being late, here are some tips on how to be (close enough to being) on time:

One thing which may not work for everyone is setting their watches a few minutes fast. So when you look at your watch at 8:15 when it’s actually just 8:00, it will make sure that you hasten to go to your 8:30 appointment.

Wake up early. Some people are late because they also wake up late and try to rush to wherever they are going. If you have a very important appointment, give yourself enough time to get ready at home and enough time to get there as well. If you know that traffic will be heavy, then be early. Or better yetm find and alternate route.

People can become late because they actually forgot about an appointment until the last minute. To remedy this, have a detailed planner and write down the appointment immediately as soon as you receive the information.
