Once in a while we find ourselves in situations when we can't be somewhere or do something in time. You could always say "Just give me 5 more minutes!". But the problem repeats over and over again, and you always need those 5 more minutes. Sometimes you even get those 5 minutes and still get late because the thought, that you still have time, makes you more relaxed and the range of things you want to do increases.
But if you'd only had 15 minutes in the morning instead of, let's say, 50 minutes which you always need, you would be ready much faster than always, skipping some routines you always do and would move faster. Oh I had a situation like that once, I overslept and had to get ready in less time than always. It felt so bad to spend a whole day in the college with unwashed face, some random clothes, I even forgot my textbooks! That's why you should give a shot to some tips provided below, don't make the same mistakes :)
Tip no. 1
If you are always late by, lets say, 5 minutes, then set your clock 5 minutes forward. You will feel that you have less time to get ready and will move faster. It's also important to convince yourself that your clock is showing you the right time!
Tip no. 2
Keep your eye on each step of your routine. If it takes more time than usually, abort that step as quickly as possible and move on to the next step. So if you usually brush your teeth for 5 minutes, dress up for 10 minutes and eat your breakfast for 15 minutes then be sure those activities do not take more time than usually and abort if they do. Put that brush or plate away, finish putting on that shirt while rushing for breakfast!
Tip no. 3
If there is any possibility, try doing some things sooner than you were planning to. For example, if you are always late on mornings, try choosing your clothes, plucking your eyebrows or preparing breakfast in the evening before going to bed. Get your make-up brushes ready on your desk, clothes near your bed, have a teapot already filled with water etc, this will save you lots of time!
Tip no. 4
Write down your plans of the day and specify the time when you will start working on each task and when will be the deadline. Keep those notes near you while working, sticky notes would be best for this! You will work faster knowing that there's a deadline. Also, you will feel a satisfaction every time you mark your task as done and that will encourage to do your tasks faster so you'd be able to mark all of them as done. I am doing this quite often and believe me, it feels so great to know you have done all your tasks for the day :)

@originalworks
Great tips especially
Set the time aheadIt keep one in hurry...
It helps me a lot actually. When I am getting ready somewhere, my watch tells me that I am late already so I start moving faster or simply skip irrelevant things :)
That is the logic☺
