Staying disciplined is important, but you need not follow every tip.
Some of the tips might not be legal in Norway

Pick some tips that you think you can apply in your daily driving, try them out, make them into new habits, then revisit the list and pick a few more tips.

Many folks shut their engines off while coasting, but i've tried it and decided against it on safety grounds (extremely stiff steering and very limited braking power).

Even leaving the engine running will return better fuel consumption when coasting in neutral.
