The worst thing that panic can do is to mess up with your brain. Okay, so you're late, but it doesn't mean that turning into a wild twister will save you time either. Panic reinforces the "tic-tic" sound of an alarm ready to explode any minute you stop moving your ass. It helps you to speed up, but it makes you lose your
common sense. For instance, when I was rushing to get dressed, I forgot to put on my socks and left my PDA behind. Why? I was moving fast, too fast that I'm no longer thinking on my toes. Panic kills time, and the more you're hurried, things will turn out to be more messy than it already is.
