RE: Why some people are always late to everything?

in #psychology7 years ago

I can really relate to this post. I am, and have always been chronically late. I find it interesting that you said some people can become addicted to the adrenaline of trying to beat the clock! I never really thought about it...but yes...it is somewhat exciting...driving fast and watching the clock. It seems as though even if I give myself plenty of time to get from point A to B...I’ll end up fiddling around...over estimating the extra time that I’ve given myself...until, ultimately I’m late yet again!
I also have anxiety...I think the idea of showing up too early scares me...it’s like...”what am I going to do with myself?”

Sort:  

What you can do then, is arrive a little bit early, but instead of waiting in the place, take a short walk around it and consume those boring minutes that way.

Yeah...I suppose this is true...I could get some excercise in too! Lol. It’s hard to change a life long habit...but I don’t want to be thought of as narcissistic or inconsiderate either! I hadnt given it much thought before!
