Every so often I can make it happen, but most times I'm struggling regardless of how much prep time I give myself. Feel like it might be related to ADHD? Either way, I'm so bad at it

What I've learned from punctual people is that they're always on time because they purposefully shoot to arrive early. But the thing is that that isn't good time management either. I would rather be consistently 5 minutes late than consistently 30 minutes early. It's not good time management to be consistently 30 minutes early because your time management and sense of time is off by half an hour while being off by 5 minutes is no biggie. Being 5 minutes late is basically getting stuck in traffic on your commute or the bus arrived late because of traffic or you had to go back to get your wallet after starting the car. Like, you'll never ever be late to anything if you set your clock to be several time zones ahead of the time zone you currently live in (so setting your clocks to EST when you live in PST), but who the fuck is going to show up 3 hours early to their dentist appointment or to their job interview?
