Q1: Benefits of punctuality?

Ans: Being punctual strengthens and reveals your integrity. If you tell someone that you will meet them
at a certain time, you have essentially made them a promise. And if you say you’ll be there at 8:00, and
yet arrive at 8:15, you have essentially broken that promise. Being on time shows others that you are a
man of your word. Being punctual shows you are dependable. Punctuality demonstrates you’re reliable. A
man can always be found at his post, carrying out the duties needful for that time. People know they can
rely on such a man – if he says he will be there, he’ll be there. But if a man is not punctual, others cannot
depend on him — they do not know where he will be when they need him. His associates will begin to
feel he cannot organize his own time, and these doubts will seep into matters beyond the clock, as it
naturally raises the question: “If he is careless about time, what else is he careless about?”
