Psychology says people who always arrive 20 minutes early may not just be punctual; they could be driven by a deep fear that inconveniencing others makes them less lovable
Arriving early for appointments, often seen as discipline, can stem from childhood fears of being unwelcome if late. Psychologists suggest this stems from a core belief that one's value depends on making things easy for others, leading to anxiety and a need for control. While helpful for some, this can be a coping mechanism, not necessarily indicating trauma. True self-worth isn't tied to perfection.
