Sometimes i worry about this. I live life without looking ahead and just enjoying the moment, and my grades suffer for it. But really, I've never been happier.

This is very important to understand, my friend. It means life is all about the 'ride'. The experiences and the feelings you get from those experiences. Instead of thinking that you need to have something 'accomplished' by the time you die. When one composes music, its all about the feelings it inspires while listening to it, not about how it ends. One must enjoy life without concerning too much about how much they are accomplishing, which can destroy the enjoyment! Hope this helps :}
