“Don’t be late.”

“A year or two after I founded my first business, I had a bad habit of always being late to appointments. Wherever I was seemed like the most important place to be at the time. One day, I arrived about 30 minutes late to meet with one of my favorite clients and she said she was firing me because I was always late. I was heartbroken. I asked her for one more chance. She agreed and I was never late again, at least without letting someone know that I would be late and why.”
