There are many different answers to this question. I don't believe that there is any objective standard by which to say one answer is better than another.
The way that we choose to answer the question, however, is of tremendous significance--it guides our actions and shapes our lives.
To the extent that we want our actions to support our idea of what is important in life, then, we can propose it as a general rule that it is good to act in a fashion consistent with our beliefs. That's not really news, I suppose.
It seems to me that there are a lot of people in the world who act in a fashion that is inconsistent with their beliefs. And I think the world would be a better place if that were not the case.

At the end of the day, what's important? Health, right? Even if everything else is totallyperfect, without a body that can support our enjoyment of it, what good is all that? So why do I do things that are not good for my health? Why do I NOT do things that I already know make me feel amazing?
I do a lot, but not all. I still struggle with wanting to be perfect, for example, which only makes me anxious!
