Modern humans have existed for the last 300,000 years, the vast majority before the last 2,000 years. Imagine a human from the dawn of time came to speak with you, and asked what they should be doing in order to live a good life? What a staggeringly difficult question, for would this human be more impactful to the world stage if they just tried a little harder? How much of themselves could they truly be wasting, all those millennia in the past, that we would need from them today?

I think the answer would be, and remains, that they should be kind to others and themselves, and they should find out more about what excites them.
