People who have time management skills let the clock become an intrusive thought so they develop an obsessive compulsion with being aware of the time. (lemmy.world)

Semi-agree. Not time management, but about being late.

My mother always wanted to leave way too early for appointments on the idea that "you never know when you're gonna get a flat tire." I have pretty strong anxiety about being late as a result. I get everywhere ahead of time and feel horrible when I show up late (which almost never happens because of the anxiety to avoid it).
