I worked with my dad for 15 years. I apprenticed under him and decided I wanted to become an architect. So I went to college for it and then the acting bug got me.
I get up at sunrise. I'm a Buddhist, so I chant in the morning. My wife and I sit and have coffee together, but then it's list-making time. I have carpentry projects. We have roads we keep in repair. It's not back-breaking, but it's certainly aerobic and mildly strenuous.
I'm an inherently happy person. It comes from the inside, which means you can achieve happiness under any circumstance.
I feel that marrying younger and being quite a young dad helped me with the stability of my career.
