[00:00:00]Do you know someone who's late to literally everything? Meetings, parties, even online calls? Psychology says it may not just be laziness. Some people actually struggle to feel time passing.

[00:00:12]5 minutes feels like 30 seconds in their mind. They often believe they can finish everything faster than reality. Their brain keeps saying, "I still have plenty of time." And then suddenly, panic mode starts. Everything becomes rushed at the last second. Sometimes they get distracted by tiny things along the way and completely lose track of time. For some people, being late is connected to stress or anxiety. Their brain avoids situations that feel overwhelming.

[00:00:38]Believe it or not, some people secretly enjoy the adrenaline rush of doing things at the last minute. But constant lateness can frustrate other people. It slowly affects trust and relationships.

[00:00:50]The good news? Small habits can help.

[00:00:52]Alarms, reminders, and leaving early really make a difference. So, if someone is always late, it may be more psychological than personal.
