On Time!

‘Better three hours too soon than a minute too late’ - The phrase is said by a character in William Shakespeare’s ‘The Merry Wives of Windsor’. It can be applied to any situation when you need to take a chance to change things. 

When you do something on time, you do it right when you should. If you're always on time, you're punctual. You can be depended on to arrive when you say you will. 

 

Punctuality is about fulfilling a commitment before or at a previously designated time. If we do not honour our commitment to be on-time, we must not accept others to value our time. 

 

Some cultures have an unspoken understanding that actual deadlines are different from stated deadlines. In cultures that value the commitment to be on-time, being late is seen as disrespectful of others' time. 

 

Quite often, we are late as we do not factor for delays on the way. Hence, we must move to defeat the deadline and reach before time. It is better to spend time waiting than miss the chance to honour the commitment.

 

No excuses are justified for being tardy and late

Be always ‘on time’ or before the deadline gate!
