I would love to say that i do plan what i am going to do with time, with no hurries, so i can do them afterwards without stress. But then, that wouldn't be me lol. I tend to leave things till the last minute (or 15 minutes if it implies a shower hehe) and I end up running to everywhere. Surprisingly enough, i am not late at work, but i always go running everywhere. I am not proud of it, but I cannot help it hehe. What are you like? do you plan things carefully? do you leave everything for the last minute?

I am a bit of a control freak. I really hate it when something or somebody changes my plans. I don't like the unexpected. So, suffice it to say, I plan things carefully. I won't leave things to the last minute. I am always nagging my husband to stop putting stuff off and then end out doing it myself because he thinks it can wait. Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today. But don't drop by my home unexpectedly without calling!

I do try to plan things in advance Lightnin honey but life always gets in the way and everything is a panic right at the very last minute. I have to say I usually run a few minutes late but that is pretty amazing considering that I am running around like a headless chicken just before I get there! xxx

When it comes to personal things like waking up early or taking a shower or doing something for myself, i do tend to leave it at the last minute. My father usually gets angry with me in the morning because my alarm clock goes on at 6a.m but i tend to snooze it every ten 10minutes until 6:40a.m and by that time, i had to run and hurry everything. LOL! To the chargin of my sister and father! But as to work, I am a stickler for planning. I don't want to be caught unprepared when it comes to work.

Hi LightninStrike! I am the type who plan things carefully and do everything ahead of time. I don't like rushing to anything and i do like to do everything in schedules. And i do keep with the schedule. I don't like the stress of rushing into everything, I always want to finish ahead of time. However, my husband is my complete opposite. he wants to leave everything for the last minute. He says that it gives him the rush and that he is more creative, productive and efficient when he has only little time left. Ideas and concepts flow smoothly and easily when he is on a rush. And i do believe him so because i can see it in his works. Take care and have a nice day.

Well sometimes we get unexpected work and all our plans get ruined . It cannot be avoided and then we have to plan again .

Hi,there! For me,I think it really depends. Sometimes,I plan things carefully.When I think it's pretty important and derserves the effort,I'll try to do some work to plan it carefully. But if it's not that important,then I may just leave it all for the last minute and then do it as fast as I can. I think it's necessary to tell the differences between big and tiny things. For different cases,we gotta take different measures:) Have a nice day!

I do a bit of both. Really it depends on my son and how organised we are. Somedays we are ready and on time and other days we are running so late that I wonder why we bother turning up to where we are meant to be going. My son is 2 1/2 and we try to be organised but sometimes little things pop up and lateness can't be helped. At least most people are understanding and if we are going to be fairly late we always try to ring.

I would like to plan in advance but find myself planning mostly at the last moment .
