It's important to be on time. No one likes it when someone is always late for everything. If you' re a tardy person, here is some advice for you.
Be conscious of (意识到) the time. Always wear a watch. Also, moving up in the time on your watch may help you to be on time.
Get up as soon as you hear the clock ring (响). If it' s hard for you to do so, you can move your clock to some place out of reach from your bed; in that way, you have to get up to turn it off. By getting up late you may be late for many other things.
Try to be 15 minutes early for everything. For example, if you have to be at work at8 : 00 a. m., don' t tell yourself this. Just tell yourself "I have to be at work at 7:45 a. m. " If you do this, you will be on time for most things.
Get to know how much time an activity really takes and then plan well for it. For example, John plans to start a shower at 6:30 and leave for supper with his friends at 6:45. But, he doesn' t think about the time he spends before or after the shower, so he can never leave by 6:45.
