Save this routine in Ready Time and it tells you when to start each step.
Ready Time
You know what you need to do. Ready Time helps you know when to start.
The shower ends and the clock starts. Dry off, get dressed, hair, maybe makeup, grab your stuff, go. It can feel like 15 minutes. Timed out, it's often closer to 40. That gap between the guess and the real number is where the rushing comes from.
You probably underestimate your shower-to-door time by 15 to 20 minutes. No single step is slow. The time hides in the transitions: deciding what to wear, going back for the thing you forgot, checking your phone for one second. A backward plan makes each step visible so those transitions stop disappearing.
If getting dressed takes 12 minutes (not the 5 you tell yourself), put 12 minutes. If hair takes 15, say 15. Ready Time adds them up, works backward from your leave-by time, and sends you a notification for each step. The plan is only as good as the durations are honest.
Usually it isn't one slow step. Dry-off, clothes, hair, bag, and shoes each look short, then the transitions between them add 15 to 20 minutes you never counted. Time how you actually get ready once, write the real numbers, and work backward from leave-by instead of guessing from the shower.
You'll get ready faster by cutting decisions than by rushing the last five minutes. Lay out clothes the night before, keep the bag packed, and give each step a start time from your leave-by. Most shower-to-door stretches land around 40 to 60 minutes when the durations are honest.
Get a nudge at the right moment, while there's still time to act.
Each step gets its own alert, so you know what's next and how long you have.
