i didn't understand what he said at the beginning about the analogy between a composition and life. (sorry about my english)
help anyone?

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 :}
