Honestly the thing that helped me the most with my time management was Google Maps repeatedly stabbing me in the back. I was always leaving at the last possible second, relying on maps to tell me what that second was.
When I moved to the city and traffic became a serious concern, Google’s ‘20 minute’ estimate would balloon out to 30 minutes on important appointments like doctor’s visits and work. So now I look at the estimate, add the higher of ten minutes or 30% to it, and make it comfortably on time to wherever I was meant to go.
