thanks, I watched part of it....a reason that it doesn't work for a lot of people is because they are not Sannyasins practicing strict renunciation and tapas while mostly or often living in a monastery under the direct guidance and support of a Self realized Satguru and their fellow monks (or nuns) along with a lot "Hindu" culture that also supports them in many ways...a life that only a relatively small number people are able live .   (and sure there are hermits, forest dwellers, sadhu, yogi's, etc (more so in olden days) in a few places that don't have that level of support yet they are Self Realized)

It can be done if there is an unquenchable thirst for liberation/the truth/God/Self and so on.

If you watch the full video, he covers some basic guidelines for practice —

1. pick a schedule and stick with it
2. pick a place and stick with it
3. pick a practice and stick with it 
4. Try to cultivate truth, non-violence etc 
5. try to hangout with people who will support each other in the journey 

…and so on.
