Yes. You are a product and you must upsell yourself to prospective employers, listing off all of your features to place you ahead of competing products in the market. Things like maintaining your health, education, etc. are smart investments into the product of you! There's a reason it's called the "job market" and capitalists call themselves "job creators." It's because you aren't a person, you are a commodity.
I am very glad I became a cynical bastard around the same time I entered the workforce, because I sure as shit wouldn't get a job if I ever told the truth in interviews.

One of the worst things I've said during an interview is that I'm not really that different from the people competing for the job.
