Alright, it’s hard to argue that being optimistic is a bad thing, so let’s move on to another reason that your friend might be running late. Maybe she was so caught up in what she was doing that she lost track of time.
People who lose track of time because they’re caught up in their work are probably doing something they’re passionate about, and passion is what causes people to be highly successful (according to Oprah, Steve Jobs and other highly successful entrepreneurs).
Another reason people tend to run late is that they are perfectionists. Not wanting to leave the house until the bed is made and the dishes are put away translates well into a work environment and can lead to a very successful career.
