It sounds like you've already made your choice.

From the article: "Regardless of what I was doing I had to be home by 7pm."

7pm is a good time, set a limit on the day and you get more done, then hit the all important hustle hours of 9-1am hard and your overall productivity will soar in relation to simply staying at work till all ours of the night.

9-1am?? When do you sleep?

This sounds like my schedule. After the kids are asleep, I usually do the same (though it's more like 10pm-1am).

As for sleep. I get about 5-6 hours. I wake up at 7am, at the latest, on weekdays to get the kids to school. On weekends I'll get more sleep (like midnight to 8 am).

It works for me.
