This is definitely how I advocate using these blogs. I changed my driving habits, but didn't start biking everywhere. I started thinking about how much the food I buy costs, but still go out with my wife for a nice dinner.
Most people probably won't follow everything on the list, but most people probably don't need to be financially independent (better goal than 'retirement' imo) in 5-10 years.
