[draft] "Be Punctual" vs "Become Punctual"
tldr: From my experience, the essence of "Be Punctual" results in an short-lived effort to pretend in a punctual way. "Become Punctual" inquires a level deeper. It asks that you understand why punctuality is important, and what identity changes are required.
"Be Punctual. Be on time. Don't be late. Arrive 5 minutes early." Common advice on punctuality.
When doing anything, strive to understand the underlying.
Why should we care about being punctual? Arriving on time? How does arriving 5 minutes early help us? I've come to realise that advice contains time of real, lived experience. And advice is generally a way of acting that has helped.
When'd doing anything, ask what the common failure modes are, and how to avoid them.
What happens when you arrive late? Reliability is in doubt.
