“This book reminds us that time’s real value lies in the human moments we refuse to rush.” - Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Regret and When
“Sometimes You Should Be Late shows why slowing down in the right contexts isn’t an obstacle to progress, but a prerequisite for it.” - Jamie Metzl, bestselling author of Superconvergence and The AI Ten Commandments
“This insightful meditation on time is ultimately a call to stay attuned to our values more than the clock.” - Rhaina Cohen, Bestselling author of The Other Significant Others
“A must-read for anyone who wants to feel less rushed and more present.” - Anne-Laure Le Cunff, neuroscientist and author of Tiny Experiments
What if the real measure of your life isn’t how fast you run, how much you do, how 'on time' you are, but how well you pay attention to what actually matters?
Sometimes You Should Be Late is about the quiet courage to slow down when the world keeps shouting, hurry up. It’s not really about clocks; it’s about questioning the stories we’ve inherited about time and consciously, rebelliously, choosing our own path.
We live in a culture that worships urgency. Like horses with blinders, we’re trained to look straight ahead—at deadlines, meetings, and to-do lists. This book invites us to lift those blinders and see what we’re missing: the colleague who has a sad look in their eye, the simple joy of a walk, the gift of a slow morning with loved ones, the stranger who needs help. Because sometimes being late is how we arrive on time for what truly matters.
Drawing on stories from government, psychology, and everyday life, meditation teacher and writer Alex Snider offers a field guide for reclaiming your attention from urgency culture. This isn’t about hacks or time-management tricks. It’s about choosing presence over punctuality, kindness over checklists, and our humanity over the clock.
