RX for the Chronically Late

For some lucky women, keeping track of time comes naturally. They are always prompt, even early for appointments. They seem to have an alarm clock programmed into their brain.

Then there are women who can remember an appointment one minute, walk out of the kitchen/office and then totally forget the appointment. It's scary for some of us!

Having given time management seminars, I know there are a lot of women out there just like that. If you're one of them, I have an inexpensive easy solution that works. Purchase an inexpensive digital alarm watch that is simple to program.

If you have a watch you like already, then put the alarm watch in your pocket or purse. When you are sitting down in the early morning (HA, how many of you sit down in the morning?) or maybe when you sit down at night for a bit, take out your calendar and check your schedule. If you have an important meeting or appointment you will need reminding of, simply set the alarm for the time you will need to head out and pop it in your pocket or purse and forget about it. (Maybe set it for when you need to start getting ready if you have to dress up or put on some make-up.)

I can't tell you how many times my sons alarm watch goes off when I need to be somewhere. It's a lifesaver!!! (Now remember, I suggested you get an easy to program watch so you can program it in a minute.)
