It's almost religious in the end. There's no global optimum for life, even at an individual scope. That said, spending too much time trying to optimize makes you myopic, which is clearly a subpar way to live one's existence. A baby is probably near peak life. |

That's a big assumption with no evidence to support it. Depending on who you ask, people might say that the global optimum is Jesus, or Buddha, or Superman. People can instinctively think about the people they admire, abstract out the things these admirable people have in common, and strive towards (and worship) that ideal.
