Punctuality is the most important characteristic of all successful People. The student, the official, the trader and even the lay-man all have to observe punctuality in order to win glory and success in life.

Punctuality brings in its trail efficiency. It may make or mar a career. If we look at the lives of all great men, we would realize that they had got a time schedule for every day. Mahatma Gandhi used to rise early in the morning. He used to keep up appointments and was punctual to a minute.



Punctuality is a virtue which is doubly blessed. It imparts efficiency and keeps a man fit and healthy. If we get up early in the morning and take a walk every day and follow a set-programme of life every day, we shall be able to keep fit and healthy. But if we waver and show laxity in our daily programs, we are bound to meet with failure in life.

Let us look at nature. The sun rises at a particular time everyday with slight variation. Rain falls in a regular pattern every year. All the seasons punctually emerge every year. The flowers bloom in spring and the earth wears green apparel during the spring season. In this way, the moon and the stars appear at a particular time. The seasons change according to a set time-table. Thus everything in nature appears at a proper time. Thus nature teaches us to be punctual. If we follow the course of nature, we will keep fit, healthy and strong. No school, college or institution can function if punctuality is not observed there. Thus punctuality is an important ingredient of all successful people.

Punctuality implies maintaining regularity in our daily schedule of work. Punctuality is the gate-way to success.
