Went looking for Frodo too late, realising Boromir's true desires too late, set out to find Merry and Pippin too late, thus giving the orcs a good head start. Or, maybe, waited too long to ask for the final decision from Frodo.

Ultimately we find that he did all these things in the perfect moment. He met Eoner, and then Gandalf, only because he did what he did when he did it. But at the time he was punishing himself severely, and he said that all his choices were amiss, and this time he has to choose right...

Perfect! I found this too late. Things happen for a good reason that's what's illustrated here.
