Punctuality is not about being on time but about respecting your commitments 🕒
Punctuality is not for others; it is for you.
How do you deal with a situation where you are punctual but others are not?
A natural response is irritation because you feel like a fool as you scheduled and planned your exit to arrive on time, and it was not a coincidence.
Here is how you can deal with it 👇
– Do not spoil your temperament (remember you made it on time 👏 )
– Communicate to others that you do not appreciate delays
– And move on without carrying baggage
The longer you keep the thought in your head, the longer you will take to start functioning optimally.
In moments like these, remind yourself that the purpose of the meeting is higher than these petty issues.
Punctuality is the key to dependability, and it hurts when others fail to show up, but you have no control over it.
You may get confused and lower your time standards, but it will leave you feeling worse because it is not your inherent nature.
Take pride in your habit and stick to it, no matter what, but don’t let the habit change you into an ever-irritable, complaining person.
Another important thing is that the world learns enough by example, so don’t waste your time preaching punctuality.
