So you are focused on what you are doing in the moment rather than always living in the future in your head. If you are in the moment, you notice others around you are testy. You notice you kid is rolling their eyes, or is quieter than usual; you listen to what people are saying, rather than think what you will say next the whole time. I agree Being Prepared and not making others wait for you is a minimum courtesy. But being present in the moment and not mentally vacant creates the calm.
