A Thought for Tardy & TidsoptimistMeet Rhea — super smart, full of ideas. But always late to class, to submissions, to life. Her favourite line? "I'll do it after lunch." Lunch becomes dinner. The work? Still pending.
Then there’s Kabir — our classic Tidsoptimist. He thinks every task will take "just 15 minutes." He plans nothing… until the night before. Then he pulls all-nighters and barely scrapes through.
Both are talented. Both are capable.But one day, their teacher says:
"This assignment goes directly to the school head. Only the most reliable students will be chosen."
Neither of them is called.
Why? Being late, even with talent, can lead to a loss of trust.
🗝️ The Reality Check:
🚀 Dreams need a launch time.
⏰ Vision needs a calendar.
💼 And success? It needs you to show up before the deadline, not with it.
So next time you say “There’s still time…”
Ask yourself:
“Time… for what?”
To build trust? Or to explain why you’re late again?
🧠 Pause & Think:
Are we becoming so used to “last minute” that we’re missing the bigger picture?
Deadlines in school are just practice — in real life, missed work = missed opportunities.
So next time, ask yourself:
"Am I doing justice to my future — or just surviving another deadline?"
