My kids and my wife make me feel vulnerable.

I meditate every day for between ten to twenty minutes. Every morning, I work out and go to the gym for an hour. I pray to the architect that designed me. I'm grateful.

I do pranayama breathing now as a meditation, and that's very helpful. Meditating changed my life.

Things always work out if you don't send that e-mail. That's another great life lesson: I've sent enough e-mails of just "f - k you, f - k you, f - k you" and hit send. I've learned a lot from never being able to take back that I sent that e-mail.

I love just going out; long drives, the ocean, my kids, new music, new gear, new plug-ins, coffee, and donuts at four in the morning. Even just waking up and writing.

I learned that once it's over, it's really over, and to not take anything for granted.

I've learned that each day is definitely a gift.
