When I saw music as a means to an end - more fame, more money, dating celebrities - that's when things have gone terribly wrong. Now my life is focused on just trying to keep making music. Because when it's really good, it's just the most remarkable feeling on the planet.

It's much easier to have a diversified career as an electronic musician than it is as a drummer. Nothing against drummers.
