I'd worry more about having what to live for.
I've lost a great friend to suicide when she was still in her twenties. When we were both just kids, I don't think that longevity wasn't on her goal list. Her parents had a very healthy lifestyle, but nu parent hopes to outlive their child.
My point? As we get older, and based on experiences, our perceptions on life will change many times.
Tomorrow I want to live to 120, the day after - I don't. All sorts of accidents can happen in the meantime. I don't know when or how it's going to end. All I care about is that when it does, if I ever get the time to look back, I'll go out with a smile.
So yeah - "do stuff that makes you happy so you WANT to live longer" - that's on my daily list of supplements. Sometimes I'll be sarcastic or facetious* about anything and everything. Who cares. Ride the wave, dude
*Severity can vary but most cases are mild and moderate
