Chris Guillebeau emphasizes the benefits of leaving for appointments 10 to 15 minutes early to alleviate time anxiety. Many resist this approach, fearing they will have idle time, yet Guillebeau notes that people typically underestimate task durations, meaning they won't have excess time; they'll simply avoid lateness. With a significant portion of people feeling overwhelmed by busyness according to Pew Research, experts suggest strategies like embracing unfinished tasks to regain control and lessen stress about time.
People habitually underestimate how long a task will take. In reality, they probably won't have extra time; they just won't be late.
Your to-do list will never end. Build your tolerance for leaving that list unfinished.
