Perfect, no, but you can try.

Heidegger would say a good life is to be genuine, Sartre would say it's to be free and live in good faith of your own choices, Nietzsche would say it's to pursue the ideal of the ubermensch, Aristotle would say it's to live by your chosen virtues, Siddhartha would say it's to reject delusion and accept your life as it is.

What all these have in common is to live your life as well as you can, rather than by vainly pursuing decadence. In the end, everything enjoyable is transient but building a self identity you can understand and respect will remain until you die, even after if you've managed to have a profound effect.
