Limited access to or confidence in primary care, 
patient perceived urgency, 
convenience, 
views of family, friends or other health professionals and 
a belief that their condition required the resources and facilities offered by a particular healthcare provider.

PLEASANT ANTICIPN

A practical tip to take here is that if you want to slow down time, you should always try to create pleasant anticipation in your life. When you imagine something wonderful is going to happen in the future, you create hope and excitement, both of which can make the present slow down and make it even more pleasant. We will later see that you can sometimes derive more pleasure from anticipating a pleasant event then the actual event itself. Similarly, experiencing negative feelings when dreading an unpleasant future event can sometimes be worse than when the event actually occurs."

EXPECTATION X IRRITATION

One thing to take from this is that when you have to wait, lowering your expectations about when things will get done will make your waiting time shorter and more pleasant. You will face fewer disappointments and you will be pleasantly surprised if it ends up taking less time. Change the way you look at waiting time. We are all more than happy to take a 10-minute break at work but feel we are wasting time when we have to wait 10 minutes in a queue."

SEGMENTATION X PREDICTION

Whether you are getting ready for a date, finishing your holiday shopping, completing an essay, or preparing food, you will better meet your deadline by breaking it down into small steps you have to take. The greater the segmentation, the more accurate your prediction of how long the task will take."

MONOTONY OF MEMORY

"A time interval will appear to be longer if it is rich with interesting memories. In his famous 1890 book, The Principles of Psychology, William James argues that ‘the shortening of the years as we grow older is due to the monotony of the memory’s content and the consequent simplification of the backward-glancing view’. He suggested that ‘emptiness, monotony, and familiarity are what make time shrivel up’."
