Stop Being Late

Penelope at Brazen Careerist has a good article entitled 5 Ways to stop being late. I especially like these:

2. Practice saying what you need to say.
Here’s a great thing to say: “Excuse me, I hate to cut you off, but I have an appointment.”

3. Be a time pessimist.
Assume everything will take a little longer than your first estimate.


If being late is a serious problem for you, I'd also recommend the book Never Be Late Again by Diana DeLonzor.
