5 Reasons You’re Constantly Running Late

It's morning and you’re running late as usual. You're constantly blaming your tardiness on those extra minutes of sleep after hitting snooze for the third time, but maybe that’s not the problem after all.

What’s making you late all the time? It could be things within your home.

Sleep Deprived: That little bit of sunlight shining in your window can be a major distraction while sleeping. Blinds or curtains can help you get that little bit of extra sleep you normally don’t get when the sun peaks through in the morning.

Organization Skills: A messy closet takes more time to sort through when searching for the right outfit in the early hours. Pick your clothes out the night before or organize your closet accordingly for easier access to that top you normally spend time digging around for.

Forgetfulness: If you’re one of those people who are always forgetting where you put your keys or your cell phone, there’s a likely chance of tardiness. Purchasing a key holder to place your keys as you come and go will be helpful and a major time saver. You’ll always know where they are!

Coffee Gone Wrong: Coffee is a very simple beverage to make but it’s also a simple task to go completely wrong! The secret to not making a wrong cup of the hot beverage is to add the grounds and water the night before while you’re somewhat awake. Just a touch of a button in the morning and you have instant bliss and you’ll save time too!

Maid Service: Searching for that coffee mug you take to work with you every morning but end up finding it in the pile of last night’s dirty dinner dishes? Doing your dishes after every meal will make it easier and more sanitary!

Go ahead. Give these time saving tips a try for a smoother morning!
