Being late effects my life so negatively. My mom was always so late and i definitely picked that habit up

Good points. 1. Being late communicates to the other person that their time isn’t as important as yours and 2. What you’re doing that makes you late isn’t more important than the sense of peace you’ll gain by arriving early

being late has been a problem for me all of my life. it has cost me my job. it has caused my friends nd family members to have to wait on me. and even though i work hard and i do my job well, my tardiness makes me less of a good trusted worker to employers.

When I am actually on time (once in a blue moon), I feel like I can tackle the world. Your comments about being truly present Krista really hit home. Thak you.

If you're afraid of being late by watching this whole video, some great tips start at 3:29

Dad always told me that I’ll probably be late to my own funeral..😬😝 Thanks for making this video! It does make a HUGE difference when you are headed to your appointment early and driving calmly🙃, as opposed to rushing and weaving through traffic because you’re running late 🤦🏻‍♀️. Procrastinator’s favorite phrase - “Better late than never!🏃🏻‍♀️” Punctual’s favorite phrase - “Early bird gets the worm 🌞🐛.”

Yes, I’ve realized that my own punctuality problems have more to do with a fear of being early than an addiction to being late.

You hit my nail on the head with trying to make the most out of every minute while I'm at home thinking my time is better spent there which causes me to be habitually late. Thank you for this info, I feel more confident about being early to work today!

1-The reason WHY I'm here it's because am out of my job and the reason guess what is lateness (constantly late) don't mean disrespect or something else BUT I guess after watching this vid I consider my time more valuable then other again I've never thought of it this way but It seems like it. 2- what you just said was really nice BEING EARLY TRULY makes JUST look better and more in control and of course you will provide yourself with time to gather some thoughts. Great vid thanks I will definitely fix this prob in me 😊

"What's the harm in being early!!" Thank you Krista for teaching a great life lesson...

I am a chronic late person even when I wake up early and have plenty of time to get to where I need to I find some way to be late when I got fired for being late consistently that’s when I knew it was a very serious problem

I missed very big meeting today that i've been working so hard in a long long time. I wasn't just late, i was so fired. The meeting was exactly 8:30AM, i woke up 2PM. F**k my life rn.

I've been always late my entire life! I'm gonna make a conscious effort to be punctual this 2020! That's my new year's resolution! I'm going to try to be 15 min early! I think this perspective helps to be on time than just thinking I've to be there on time! Very well said and well explained concept! I🙂

I’ve always struggled with this too. Very similar situation, except I still struggle. I don’t have much faith in myself that I can do it, but this video gives me hope, so thank you! I go to bed too late, wake up too late, struggle with time management, don’t like being early, etc. but I do realize it’s frustrating to people and sends the wrong message. It has caused so much stress and grief in my life so I really want to improve massively

Many people who struggle with time management and lateness have ADHD. A diagnosis and treatment can be life changing.

Thank you! I needed to be reminded of this... I miss everything walking in circles trying to leave the house.

Watch at 1.5x

My problem with me is if I have enough time I tend to get absent-minded and waste time with unnecessary stuff, and become late in the process.

This was a helpful video and very realistic. Thank you for sharing with us and being so honest. I have a similar story to you and am married to a very timely man. I’ve made some changes but really need to take greater strides. Your suggestion about 15 minutes early every time is a change I can make today! Thank you for this helpful video.

This video was God sent. This is literally my experience! You hit every thought and emotion on the head for me. Like thank you so much!!

I am usually late because I generally don't enjoy rules and the pressure to have to get on time or because I simply don't feel like showing up for things to which are rather indiferent to me.

I have never connected with a video so much in my life, being late has been the worst habit I have as a person. I will definitely apply this advice, thank you!

I appreciate this. I'm going to work on 15 min. early, and there need to respect other people's time.

Wow!!! I love the way you shifted your way of thinking. I am hoping to get to work earlier and sit peacefully in my car, watch the sun get brighter, birds chirping and breathe into my day, instead of always stressing myself out.

I’ve been late most of my life, this video really opened up my eyes. To be truthfully honest, I never thought about the actual message I’m sending to the people I’m meeting up with when I’m running late. It really is a blatant act of disrespect and the ultimate slap in the face…. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO

I really hate being late. I really do. 😭 I have turned down interviews and just come up with a reason why I can't attend an hour before the actual interview. It really sucks!!!😭😭😭 I need help.

is it a habit? or is it a brain malfunction from the day of birth? or is a body addicted to dopamine or some anxiety hormone?

You are such a good communicator , you definitely should get back on KZfaq and make more videos!! Good luck

This is some quality content, very underrated. Bless you ♡

So I was on my way to work, I was actually early to get the train, the train then got delayed, I said no problem I’ll take a cab when I get to the station, but when we got to my station, for some weird reason the doors didn’t open , meaning I had to sit on till the next stop for another 45 minutes, 45 minutes back to my station and wait 30 minutes at that new station for a train back, making me three hours late to work on my second day, which I was late to on my first day. We are creatures of programmed habit , unconsciously our subconscious mind picks up habits that we see repeatedly or do via conscious effort first, and a force like gravity called hypnotic rhythm that holds habits in place and the position of the stars and the planets etc holds our habits in together but what most people don’t know is reality reflects your thoughts/consciousness through circumstances and events too, since my habit is being late by programming even when I’m not late I’ll be late by default. Only way to stop it is creating a new Conscious habit for over one month, being early for over one month again and again, consciously. The pendulum has you tied up in its web. Good thing is the same power works for good habits too and reality reflects good thoughts in the form of circumstance and events too

I truly appreciate this. The info gives me a new perspective on time management. Thank you!

I really needed all of this video. Thank you for the humbling thoughts regarding time!

I'm 51 now and have struggled with it all my life, in every situation. When I was a couple of yrs old, I had the measles and took about 10 months to get over it, lying in bed hardly moving for days at a time. Probably missing some developing in the frontal lobe it would seem. I don't know if that has anything to do with my not being able to manage time. I seem to take 2 - 10 times longer to do most things than others for most things. I also have always tended to get into my own little world, like almost in a trans, and have alot of difficultly making decisions and completing tasks. If you're clued in, you may rightfully assume that my house is a disaster area. Esp. having many interests, not being able to stick to just one thing. Quite annoying since I'm also a perfectionist,,, agrhhhhhh, lol.

What I enjoyed about this video as much as the helping information is the grace and kindness I can now show myself and others because I'm not the only one who has been through this. I can make the necessary changes I need to make without beating myself up about it. I look forward to being punctual now.

The problem is that I do feel like my time is more valuable 😬 that’s the problem

There are few people on youtube that can actually make me subscribe, less so after one video. But you did it. Great content! Thank you very much. I am going to try to make this change in my life for the betterment of others and myself.

Me watching this knowing that I’ll be late today AGAIN!!

LOVED this mental point of view rather than step by step (which I've tried numerous times and doesn't click for me) Thank you!! I could -really-relate! 😍

Thank you for the video!! You put it into words that I couldn't explain. I will try your tips.

One way to ensure anyone to stop being late all the time is to set the clocks/watches at least three minutes faster (no more than fifteen minutes).

Thank you so much your like an angel from heaven thank you I can’t express how much this changed my life.

Being early is being on time, being on time is being late, being late is unacceptable

Thank you for sharing your story ! I am seriously struggling with this I almost feel as if I need counseling. God bless xx !

I watched this video a long time ago... I finally figured out how you did it. Recently I alter some habits that I had been trying to change for 10 -20 years. I'm in my 20s btw. In those 10 -20 years I got literally nowhere in changing them... Until I discovered something and literally overnight I altered those behaviors for good. Literally. But I still couldn't figure out the THIS one until now. Until I remembered your video and started to think about what you said through my new awareness. I figured out how you did it. You didn't mention it in the video and I doubt you realize what actually happened. However, what you did do it tell your conscious understanding of it and that is all I needed to make the connection. I want to thank you so much. If you only knew what you have contributed to. THANK YOU!

Watching this because this year, I really want to fix my habit of always being late. Thanks for the tips!

you stated it so true 🤧🤧❤ i’ve always had the mindset of wanting to squeeze every bit out of my day, don’t want to waste time

Great Video!! You don't know how much I wish I could go back to the many times I was four or Five Minutes Late for Work or an Appointment, or even a Date with my Mom! You inspired a Great Idea. It's always a little hard for me to leave early because I don't want to sit in front of the Time Clock for 15 Minutes Early! But, It's Better then being Late. I think IMO if your driving and there is no traffic but instead a Really Slow Driver in front of you and you can't pass him or her and get around, even if it's still our fault, I act like a New Yorker, (And I'm not even a New Yorker) and blame the driver in front of me along with the other drivers doing the same thing when I'm frustrated. But Sometimes it can't be helped like if you like have a Dead or Weak Battery, A Train is late, etc, the Weather.

Thanks Krista! This video is quite relatable to myself! The feeling of guilt for wasting peoples time is not good and this was helpful. God bless you

This is a very useful video, thanks for sharing. Also it is very similar to my story. I have got a very patient BF and I feel sorry, everytime I make him wait. At that moment I decide that I will change, but the cycle continued. He is so patient, so the best I can do is change. What you said about not valuing other person's time really struck me. I wasn't realising it earlier. But this video helped me realise it. Thanks again. Lot's of love from India.

Thank you for this video. I realised I was being selfish valuing my time over others. I will start to practice this today and see how it goes. Also realised I'm always stressed when I'm trying to go anywhere because I'm racing against time. Thanks for your tips

Thank you Krista. I am regularly late for appointments and I don't think I properly considered the impact on others. Let's see how I get on moving forward!

I soooooo relate to the idea of wanting to squish as much as possible into every minute!

Best video I came across about being late! Thank you!

I need help sleeping early and waking up early. I need Help with time Management.

The best thing in you what I saw in ur channel .... Is just that you only upload only one vedio... Which you thought must helpul for everyone ❤ For which this platfor. Actual means for Grt job... Nd really inspiring especially for me... As I'm always late since childhood to yet nd wanna to improve myself... Just through you... I'm coping out from all this stuff.... Thnxx a lot ❤❤❤

Being 15 mins early!! I’m going to try it!!

Thanks for this video. You really wrapped it up at the end. They don’t make good ole youtube videos like this anymore. Thanks again! Have a great day!

GREAT video. I'm currently running late to work (per usual). I'm so tired of myself being late for EVERYTHING.

Watching this video about not being late as I am late for work🥲

Great video! Thank you for sharing your story.

May 19th 2024. Watching this as I’m late to Church. I’m late to everywhere , needs to change

The problem I have with being early is that I would panic and trigger abandonment issues if I was the only one there. I always feel like an outsider so I would understand why no one else would show up. I also would feel anxious about getting a table or not or if I was expected to do something to "set up" for the group by myself. This scares me so much, especially considering the travel to new places is anxiety inducing by itself since I don't know the environment. I'd rather show up late so that they're already there and I can calm my nerves a bit.

Very good advice. Thank you.

Wow thank you soooo veryyyyy much really appreciate the way you shared your prospective… I was able to relate with every word you said

Thankyou for making this video! I’m a adult who struggles with adhd. I’m damn near 40 and still struggle to be on time. I probably be late to my own funeral.

Incredibly helpful thank you so much for this valuable share!! 🤗💪🙏❤️

Have you considered that you had ADD or ADHD? A lot of people with it tend to be either late or really early.

I had to cut off 2 friends because of that. It wasn't only the lateness but the nerve to being mad for me being mad at them. I felt besides disrespected sorta manipulated,so I put an end to it. Now we don't speak and I heard that one of them lost her job over this,and I felt really bad. But it reminded me of a conversation we had once when I asked if her boss didn't mind it and she said: "That's his problem...and he won't find someone as competent as I am"....guess she was wrong again.

This was great; thank you so much. Very helpful.

Thanks Krista; great video! Jayla👍

It's just that i don't feel incentivized going early to work.

Very good advice, I'm usually puntual with time but late delivering things, tasks. Trying to figure out how to stop procrastination once and for all forever.

My adopted who’s Hispanic is always early. I really love my Mum because she help me to be a responsible young man. To be on point like people in Japan it also makes sense why I love Japan on time culture and hope to go there. I really love my Mum thanks to my Mum as an African American Video Game Designer my Mum always be on time. I’m also very critical of my self and I rather be my worst critic than doing bad to people of the things I went through in my life I didn’t mention my life is a movie.😊😊😊😊😊☺️☺️☺️☺️🥰🥰🥰

Great video! I never thought about it like that. That is, I'm saying my time is more valuable. Ironically I hate when ppl waste my time. Thank you for this video!

Congrats to Tyler! Good job man.

This habit has served me negatively multiple times and on many occasions.

I felt like I was wasting time too. Thankyou for challenging that ideology

Thank you for this perspective. I'm on it!

Thank you for your video!!! I will definitely use this tips!!!

My brother in law was always late for everything. Dinners, family events, birthday parties...etc. We no longer speak to each other. I'm in my 50s now and have no time for this crap. You are absolutely correct, its a sign of disrespect and I'm done with it.

Thank you. I'll apply the 15 minutes early to my life. I appreciate it.

Thanks alot for sharing your experience. It dose help the tip to be earlier.

Nice and thank you for your time 👍

It's not always about my is more valuable, but I leave too little for getting ready. When it's time to leave, I find out idk where my wallet is, idk what to wear or I don't like what I picked or I didn't pack my lunch box. I hate to be leaving without being completely ready but I always have less time to get ready than I need.

Thanks girl! So helpful 💘

Thank you so much for this video ❤

Hi dear professor Thank you so much for your interesting information. I really appreciate your job. I wish you peace and happiness under the sky of prosperity. All the best. Take care and have a good time. Your follower from Algeria

Now for a video about people who invite one for dinner at a normal dinner eating time, and food isn't ready for over an hour, hour and a half. This has happened just a few times over many years but it was exasperating.

I needed this 💯

Not me watching this while being late for work 😀

Thanks.I'm gonna have to marry an early person.

Always late but not anymore hopefully

Ugh I hate it when life happens like a sick child or lost keys or new construction and you’re late and it ruins your day. I’ve always been more of a late morning person never 6 am kinda thing but I’m supposed to be. I don’t stay up late till wee hours but if I don’t get my sleep forget it, I’ll be a zombie! I am punctual on everything else meetings and appointments just that morning arrival gets me!

Late to what? Work? or a meeting date? Someones house? event gathering?

Its a good vid, i watched this on my late journey

Hello Krista, where did you buy that lamp behind you?

Hey Krista, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and aslo highly engaging thumbnails as well? Your content is impressive can you let me how you can make your thumbnails ?

Do you have more videos???

Wow great hearing your story, inspired to be punctual now. Wish me luck 😀

I love this video. So helpful
