“Punctuality is the stern virtue of men of business, and the graceful courtesy of princes” Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

One of the pressing problems facing our society is now is the inability of people to be punctual on different occasions.  These occasions varied to things like going to work, attending a meeting, keeping an appointment and a whole lot more.  In this part of the world, it has come to a situation where this problem is dubbed as "AFRICAN TIME".

I want you to follow me and see some of the derivable benefits that being punctual results in:

-RESPECT.  If you take your time to develop punctuality as a habit, people will begin to see you as a respectable person.  This is because whenever they count on you, you won't let them down.  And this doesn't only stay with people, you too can begin to respect yourself because you know deep down inside you know that you are a person who attend every matter as at when due.  Punctuality is what will guarantee how people respect you in their eyes.

-SERIOUS-MINDED.  By the time people realize that you are a punctual person, it will become clear o them that you are serious in all your affairs.  The will want to associate with you and will recommend people to do business with you.  This is practical as people are known to hate those who doesn't take things seriously.  Did you know that even people who are not serious loves so much to do business with people who are serious?

-DON'T MISS OPPORTUNITIES.  When you set out your mind to be punctual, you have actually set out your mind to grab opportunities that would have otherwise slipped you clutches.  A punctual person is in fact a functional person ready to grab and use any potential opportunity available.  In meetings, most of the people who get the most details are punctual people.  And most of the time it is these kind of people that use the information discussed in the meeting at the right time because their mind has been conditioned to be TIME CONSCIOUS.

-WINNING PRIZES.  One thing i like with punctuality is that it attracts recognition through gifts.  This may be either in form of cash or kind.  there are organizations that gives prizes to their workers monthly because of punctuality.

-YOU'LL BE SET AS ROLE MODEL.  Once you are punctual, people will start to borrow leaf from you.  Punctuality is the virtue of greatness.  this will help you as you will re-commit your efforts because you know people are looking towards you to copy from you.
