I remember the time when when I was in college and our group made a software for shops. And we wanted shops to buy it so that for final year we can have that as a proof of concept for project.
However in that time shops were not digital, nor having digital payment option. And so they never thought about digitizing the process.
We were disappointed that we made the shop management system and also were ahead of our time, 10 years back. Now same shops run the invoice, catalog, inventory and even the payment system digitally.
But today we neither have time nor the energy to make such software from scratch and compete with the companies.
Today a lot of us who are not yet successful in their venture yet tried the concept which were ahead of time can have that sort of the guilt or say feeling of defeat which makes you think that, we made it but didn't capitalize on the success.
This was one example specific to the business and career.
There are countless other ways you can experience "early in time" event in your life.
Like say you would meet some girl or guy. In my case I met a guy who was good and everything but he had other plans and I was just in his ways. I thought I got the one I got the stability soon enough. But realized that I was early in time and not going to make it to the end with this guy.
What does this tell you? Sometimes it's not people who are wrong, it's you and them early in time. You are just meeting each other as a part of some universe conspiracy for temporary relief.

A lot of times you are early in the process because you try to push the traditional limits that are already added into the society and the family limits. And when you attempt to do so you end up with the failure or lack of success in that point.
This happens because lack of variables which limit the success on that part where you appear "early in time".
What are the consequences of "Early in Time"?
When you are early in time and did not get the success and you get disappointed or hurt due to this event. It can break you bad. Like if you don't meet the partner you want in life, you get broken to not even pursuing dating.
If you are into business and continue to experience "early in time" event, you would run away from those futuristic models for the business. This would also reduce the confidence and also reduce the innovative ideas through that person.
If you experience this type of stuff in relationship of family,friends, dating and even for networking. You would start to push yourself back and avoid trying to do extra ordinary things.
A lot of disappointment, depression, anxiety, sadness and sort of held back approach is generated when more people experience this event.
What is the cure for "early in time"?
Sometimes only cure for this is knowing that you have to be conscious about the variables around you. You can't play foreign music among the people who prefer the local music, trying to do that would lead to "early in time" event.
If you have conservative relationship person in front of you, trying to be liberal or modern would backfire too.
If you have futuristic software or hardware but the target is not even that much intelligent then your efforts are as good as wasting water on circular surface. I hope you get the point.
Conclusion
Early in time event is experienced by almost everyone in the life. And there is literally nobody that can control this and nobody can deny they never experienced it.
Trying to understand present variables instead of future variables or growth is the only way to deal with this type of event.
