I would say that it must be difficult, if not impossible, to separate someones religion and behavioral convictions. LDS are strongly motivated missionaries and have the courage of their convictions - meaning they dont acept ideas that are counter to their own. The 7 habits is certainly prescriptive and is presented as certain and the correct way to do things. I would say its quite consistent with his LDS stance.
