It smells like crap? No, it smells like you have a thing against self-help books. I've never heard about this before but it strikes me as a potentially useful way of looking at personal life a bit more systematically than a simply stated "work-life balance" that everyone uses rhetorically but is rarely defined.
Maybe instead of indignantly demanding "how dare this guy attempt to define me according to his own pop psychology metrics!?" or "this clearly does not work for everyone so it's utterly useless crap!", you could suspend judgement for a few microseconds and discuss the actual content.
