3. surrounded by good relationships that encourage well being.
4. a childlike spirit
5. good living environment
6. good habits in general, routines etc.

Answer 2

At least one study on mice eating very much less lives a lot longer than mice eating as usual, in fact 30% longer.
There are literally hundreds of studies showing that diet, exercise and life style (i.e. not doing drugs etc, but have positive relationship with people, etc) lives longer, though not proportionally longer than the mice study.
All said, ones longevity is constrained by ones genetic inheritance, and that includes whether one is pre-disposed to cancer. However, one does not have control over that.
One does have contol over what one eat, drink, exercise and relates to ones family, community and nature.
