Philosophy

We believe in living a balanced life, of finding and pursuing ‘good enough’ solutions. This should be viewed in contrast to ‘optimizing strategies’. We do not believe in optimizing some specific aspect in our life as humans in order to reach old age. No person currently knows what to optimize and even if we knew, all individuals differ from one another. Optimizing the ‘optimal’ aspect for one person might not lead to optimality for another person.

We believe in keeping down excessive behaviour, as long-term excesses, be it drinking large amounts of alcohol or eating too much food, have a tendency of wearing down the body and to cause diseases. We also acknowledge that we are humans and that life could become too dull if all excesses were abolished. Try to keep them limited.

We believe in basing our actions and habits on science, on scientific discoveries. Scientifically established ‘truths’ are often grounded in long-term studies incorporating many study objects, i.e. the probability that the findings are true is higher than for other more non-scientific methods.

We strive for objectivity, but as humans we are affected by our human biases. These biases could, and sometimes do, result in unintended subjectivity.

We acknowledge the presence of external interference, i.e. even if we live our life in a healthy way that, if uninterrupted, would lead to reaching old age, we could be affected by external forces that are beyond our control. For instance, we could tomorrow be run down by a car when crossing the street, we could catch a deadly disease, we could be subject to violence from other people, and so on.
