You have agreed to meet at 8 pm. At the hour × 8.15, and there is no girlfriend? Surely each occasion has happened. And well, if a person is late for a meeting in a cafe or walk. Much more seriously, when "being late" completely forgets about the time of departure, it does not come to a business meeting at the appointed time or makes birthday guests wait for him. Here are 8 practical advice to combat finding:
1) Calculate time up to minutes. A frequent error of non-passual people is inability to evaluate how many minutes the road will take place and add 10-15 minutes about the reserve. On the roads there are always traffic jams, trains in the subway can linger, and you may accidentally turn the leg in the way and go slower than usual. Everything is impossible to foresee, so go out in advance.

2) Gadgets are the best friends. Instead of making a day plan on paper, which may be chance to get lost, drive entries in the phone. Download the organizer or recording the meetings and tasks directly in the mobile calendar. It is also convenient to bring in it the dates of travel, to remind you about the approaching Dedlans and regular work.
3) Find out the way in advance. Make a route in online maps to view an approximate route duration. We advise you to download an application with offline cards in case it will be bad to catch the Internet. So you will not be lost by going along the route using GPS. If this is an important meeting, we advise you to go to this place in advance to remember the road. People are often late, because they cannot find waters in the building, the necessary entrance or enter the territory not from the other side.
4) Be prepared in advance. From the evening, collect a bag, intend clothes, clean the shoes and pick up accessories. Think about hairstyle and makeup, refresh the manicure. If you need to take documents with you, fold them to the folder and make several copies, do not forget about the handle and flash card.

5) Do not postpone the alarm ring. A tempting desire to soak in bed. Extra 5 minutes can turn into the loss of half an hour. Before bedtime, put the phone further from the bed so that you exactly get up in the morning, wanting to disable an annoying alarm clock. Going to sleep on time to wake up with ease and immediately take care.
6) Be a realist. Yes, we want to accommodate all things at 24 hours. But when one task is superimposed on another, you are surprised to discover that you do not have time. By making a schedule for a day, make the half-hour pauses between tasks. So you will have time to relax and fulfill everything on time. Always look at the past: if you earlier, you managed to maximize 3-4 tasks in the day, you should not plan to execute twice as much.
7) Put reminders. In order not to spend the time in vain, looking at the clock and checking the deeds, install reminders. They will remind you that it is time to fulfill another thing or go to the meeting. As soon as the signal is heard, immediately finish the previous task and proceed to the next one.
8) Keep keys and essentials in one place. Place these things in the same place every day. Move the keys to the shelf at the entrance, and shift the organizer from the bag in the bag. In it, fold the objects of hygiene, wet wipes, compact powder, hair band, a small comb, lip balm, plaster, plastic spoon and lighter. This is the necessary minimum of things that always lack at the right moment.
