Punctuality for success: how to rock your day!

Punctuality for success in Neflental

Everything seems to wake up magically every morning in the Neflental. Today, the sun was just rising over the Dragon's Tooth Mountains. The birds were chirping colourfully and the dewdrops on the ferns glistened in emerald, gold, vermilion and blue-grey in the time mirror clearing. Summer, autumn, winter and spring appeared there at the same time between floating mirrors. It was an ordinary, but also very special day for Rosa Periwinkle.

Why punctuality is important

Rosa Periwinkle had an important plan in the Neflental today. At eight o'clock sharp, she was to meet with the Buchians at the old beech trees. She had been instructed to decorate the time lantern for the big spring festival. If she was late, everyone else would have already started. The mirrors on the Time Mirror Glade only released their special magic at the right time. Anyone who missed this could not collect new light for the festival. Rosa Periwinkle knew that punctuality made all the difference here.

A day with fixed times

Unlike on lazy days, she got up quickly. She set her little alarm clock to the right time, took a sip of spring water and set off. The leaves rustled softly as Rosa Periwinkle hopped between the ferns and moss. There was no time to stroll. On the way, she met the Flossians at the crystal lake. They had heard that arriving too late caused the mirror light to fade. So they also hurried to walk in time with Rosa Periwinkle.

Rosa Immergrün made it in time

The mirrors in the clearing began to shimmer just as everyone arrived together. Spring blossoms were reflected in the glass alongside flying autumn leaves and squeaking snowfall. Rosa Periwinkle called out cheerfully: "Because we're on time, we're going to catch the most beautiful mirror lights for our party today!" Everyone in the team was given their task. One brought golden ribbons, the other blew emerald-green soap bubbles.

Being on time together makes you strong

The Buchians, Periwinkle's friends and the Flossians laughed and worked hand in hand. Because everyone was on time, no one could miss the important time for the mirror light. They collected colours from every season and were happy because the festival would now be especially bright. At the end, one of the mirror walls showed them how friendly and cheerful they looked together. It was only because everyone was there on time that such magic was created.

What do we learn from this?

Rosa Immergrün and her friends did it together. Because they were on time, they collected special light for the festival in Neflental. Those who are punctual don't miss out on any magic and can easily achieve their goals. If everyone joins in, nobody feels left out. This makes every day in the Neflental a little happier, brighter and more successful.
