There are roughly 5 areas of which combined cover 80+% of things you can control.
1. Exercise (aerobic and strength, doesn’t have to be much but more is better).
2. Diet (mostly whole foods, mostly plants, low saturated fat).
3. Prevention (regular check ups and following doctor’s advice).
4. Meaning / purpose (either being passionate about your job or having such hobbies outside of it).
5. Friends and community.
This isn’t too much. By many that’s the bare minimum for having a satisfactory life.
