It's not just a simple choice. You can call it that, but this can be seen as idle rhetoric. The reality is that there are ALOT of changes and commitments involved in this change.

I said it was a simple calculation, not that it was easy to motivate others to want to be on time. The calculation is simple, meaning not complex--(Destination time - prep time) + a small cushion = on time. It isn't difficult to understand. If I need to be someplace at 7:00, and it takes me 30 minutes to get there and 45 minutes to get ready, I need to start getting ready at 5:45. Simple, uncomplicated.
Getting someone who doesn't care to care is the difficult part.
