A bold claim — most folks are not serious, /non-committal/ about healthy [1] longevity. I was just like everyone else, until my focus started shifting towards wellness.

Re the conversation with HF.Sun, the conversation with Tanko (about my age).
One of the fundamental attitudes (about longevity) is AAA/no-pleasure — Q: do you cherish and guard the no-pleasure /condition/, such as
- no pleasure in .. alcoholic drinks, sugary drinks, durian
- no pleasure in .. gaming, which tends to derail/disrupt a healthy lifestyle including relationships and support network
This fundamental attitude can have a subconscious (therefore fundamental) impact on everyday choices. Choice often entails sacrifice, trade-offs, priorities.
[1] Un-Healthy longevity is out of scope, obviously.
