We understand that sometimes the results of your important research may not be available by the regular abstract submission deadline. To recognize research developments that are critical to the field, we offer the option of submitting a Late-Breaking Abstract. Accepted Late-Breaking Abstracts will be presented as a poster at the conference and appear in the CHI Extended Abstracts in the ACM Digital Library.
The term late-breaking is often used to describe news that breaks after the usual end of the day, causing an abrupt disruption in regular television programming or print newspaper headlines. In some cases, such as for a tornado warning or the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, news networks interrupted their regular broadcasts with a live cut-in to report the latest updates.
When you’re consistently late, it can be a serious problem—not only does it put you at risk for losing your job, but studies show that people who are chronically unpunctual tend to have higher stress levels and worse relationships. However, experts say it’s possible to turn things around by identifying the causes of your unpunctuality and learning better time-management skills.
The most common reason for being late is that you don’t value your own time. This is a problem because if you don’t respect your own time, it can be easier to disrespect others’—especially when you’re in a rush. Here are five tips from experts that can help you learn to love your time again.
