Find yourself always rushing in and just making it or even worse, apologizing for your tardiness. Always overwhelmed? Join me in arriving 15 minutes early to every meeting. I schedule the meeting 15 minutes ahead in my e-calendar. Then, when I arrive 15 minutes before the true appointment time, I use the bonus time to check my emails and texts, or even, don’t gasp: catch up on business reading.
By arriving fifteen minutes early, I have reduced my stress, improved my impression on my meeting mates and increased productivity. A winning trifecta. Give it a try and let me know how it works out.
