I don't know anything about the author, but sounds to me like he's a person who's not in a relationship and almost certainly doesn't have young children. Many of the things in his routine would be nearly impossible to do for a person who's in a "family"

I disagree with you. He basically recommends a sleeping pattern, having fun, exercising, learning, helping others, finding ways to win. Which of these is impossible for people in a family? If many of these 6 things...lets say 4 of them... are nearly impossible for people in families then you'd think people in families would all be quite unhealthy.

Well, he recommends to stick to a specific schedule (having a walk at 21:30, going to sleep at 22:00, waking up at 06:00, etc) The exact times do not really matter, but sticking to a specific time schedule is problematic IMHO when you have a family because of the non-determinism introduced (especially by the kids).. Unless everyone in your family agrees to follow (and stick to) a similar schedule..
