You guys have been describing me too! My watch is set 15mins fast, yet I'm perpetually late (or only just arriving 'on time'), but this is still an improvement over what I used to be like! I think for me it is a combination of not accurately estimating the time it takes to get moving once I shift gears for the next thing, and also getting distracted. Recently, I was reliant on public transport and had to make sure I got up early to catch a particular train. I ended up finding myself feeling more stressed though, because I was worried that I'd be late even though I'd gotten up earlier. I almost decided I'd rather be late instead! I'd be interested to hear other listeners' thoughts on their experiences, and what also works well for them (if they used to be late or use the watch-cheat). Oh dear!
