kitchen_kinkDear readers,
Please, please, please kindly share your anecdotes, tips, medical interventions or other techniques that have helped you in your quests to be ON TIME.
You see, I am chronically late. Late to work by 5 or 10 minutes, daily. I blame it on some inherent flaw in public tranportation, which, while indeed slow and unpredictable, would be fine if I left ten minutes earlier. Late to classes that I take and that I teach. Late to dates that I really want to keep!
Being berated doesn't help. Setting my clock fast doesn't help. And getting in trouble at my jobs doesn't help.
Help!

Date: 2003-04-14 06:40 am (UTC)Going to sleep before midnight works for me, as then I'm more willing to get up at an ungodly hour. Now, if I could only do that myself...
Try a buddy system: talk to someone who also gets up at an unreasonably early hour, and have him or her call you each morning. Offer to
set them on fireuh... bake them cookies or something in return.Move in with a morning person.
