The only sane, good life is to work very hard and stop enjoying anything at all that feels good. It is a trap of the hormonal characteristics of man, that were put there by the devil to lead you into a depraved life, so he could capture your soul and win a bet with god. Remember, feeling good has to be bad. Stop that and anything that tends to lead you towards it. You will someday be nominated as citizen of the year. You may have to get the undertaker to work overtime to remove the wrinkles from your brow and the grimace from your face, but in the end you will have covered all the ascetic bases and any possible true way of living somehow proscribe by some almight that prohibits any sort of bad stuff you can imagine will have been adhered to. You can call it just-in-case living. On the other hand there is the strategy of maximum risk-to-reward ratio analysis. Since it may be that there is no afterlife or sanctified reward, or there exist a no a-priori rule afterlife with no punishment, what are the odds that living to the max will not win? If conversion to religion is all it takes and lifestyle does not count, I will live a life of excess, whine, women and silly songs and put off conversion until the last minute and call all the priests in the yellow pages to convert to all possible religions. Unless there are some that are mutually exclusive it should work. EC<:-}
