The 5 Stages of Schedule-itis

Stage 1: Denial

You've got plenty of time, you're not worried about it.

What happened when I first saw the schedule? Why I still don't have a plan?

Stage 2: Anger

You're running late, and it's not my fault!

Why didn't someone else make sure I was on time? Who is responsible for my delays?

Stage 3: Bargaining

Just 5 more minutes, I swear, I'll make it up!

Why didn't I just leave earlier? What happens if I just keep running?

Stage 4: Depression

Why bother, nothing ever goes as planned, right?

Why don't I just accept the fate? What is the point of having a plan, anyway?

Stage 5: Acceptance

I'll just roll with it, it's all good.

Acceptance is key! I'll just wing it!
