Running late

Most of us get up on time, eat breakfast, lunch on time, attend meetings but still get late in the evening. Do you ever notice what are the things that let you run late mostly.
We all have 24 hours a day but have you ever thought how genius people manage it to do lots of things in the same 24 hours which we don’t. I am writing this post after lots of analysis specially done for me with my day-to-day tasks. I found that nobody wants to be late anywhere but sometimes things go wrong and certainly, they are delayed by a few minutes. Here I am only writing about those few things which are responsible for the delay in minutes.

  1. Social Network
    We all are very active in different groups on social networks nowadays. We share our thoughts, wishes our friends which is very good. But while doing all this we sometimes forget about the time. Just replying to one more message or checking one more post can make you delayed by minutes for an important meeting. Restrict yourself while using gadgets, fix how much time you will spend on social networking sites or apps according to your schedule.
  2. Chat
    If you are a punctual person and want to achieve an aim in life, then this is a very important point. While talking to somebody, we lost in the topic so much that we don’t care that we are running late or we are killing another person’s important time too. Either it is on the phone or one to one conversation, manage your day that you could talk to your loved ones while walking or at any suitable time when you both are free to talk.
  3. Create a Mess
    If you are a person who loves to create a mess, then it’s tough for you to be on time everywhere. If you place things at their restricted place, trust me it will be very easy for you to search them and reach anywhere anytime on time. It’s my personal experience, things in my room are so well placed that I can search them blindfolded. I have learned this from my dad. It makes my mornings, lovely because I decide my dress and set my bags 1 night before for my office.
  4. If you love the snooze option
    No Big No for that snooze option if you want to be on time. Only 1 second more nap will let you sleep for more minutes or maybe hours. When your fingers want to press snooze then stop and Imagine the circumstances of getting late. I am sure you would develop a habit of leaving bed on time.
  5. Unplanned Activity
    Sometimes its demands that we have to go for an unplanned activity, but most of the time they are encouraged by us only. If you analyze yourself for a week you can check how many unplanned activities were created by you. The time which you have wasted just because of not planning well can also be calculated. Schedule your day before 1 day and see the difference yourself. 5 Inspirations we can take from celebrities, apart from makeup and fashion
  6. Lack of communication
    Communicate well to your staff, friends, or anyone. For example, if you have planned a meeting for the next day, send clear notification about time and place to all of the responsible people. This was a small example, but you can apply it to your daily tasks and save more time for other activities.

    Try to plan your day and restrict your activities that are draining your power and then see the difference. You can get a few ideas from here as well. Time management: Not a BIG deal 10 ways to be a Smart workers  I have covered the most important things in my knowledge let me know if I missed anything you know 🙂
