Rob Morgan Is A Curious Person

※ A NOW New Years [Daily Guinness]

Nostalgia is my drug of choice, and New Year's Resolutions often fuel my anxiety about the future. It’s all too much. It’s all too big. Maybe simply giving grace for the now is all I can resolve for.

Are You A Traveler?

Do you consider yourself a traveler?

Forget “Yes” or “No.” What I’m really curious about is what comes to mind when I ask you that question.

Maybe you picture yourself boarding a plane with your passport in your pocket.

I’ve been obsessed with asking my music friends that same question this past month, and a gig this past weekend in Minnesota’s Iron Range reminded me of a quote I once heard, “Sometimes, you can get a stamp in your passport, just by crossing the street.”

※ How I Stopped Giving A Sh!t [Daily Guinness]

"Eager" and "enthusiastic" are two words I could use to describe my younger self in multiple aspects of my life. The problem is that those often get perceived externally as "desperate."

Here's how I learned not to give a shit. (or at least calm down and appear like I didn't."

※ Blue-Collar Manifestation [Daily Guinness]

For years... I misunderstood what real manifestation looks like. Turns out, it's far more blue-collar than I thought...

※ Success Can Suck It! [Daily Guinness]

A greenroom conversation with my buddy Steve Bosmans in Columbus, Georgia reminds me of how I defined 'Success' for years... It turns out it was extremely unhelpful.

※ Performance As Playground [Daily Guinness]

I once heard a comedian say, “Writing a set is similar to building a playground.”

The writing and prep, that’s where the real work happens. Once you walk on stage, your only job is to embrace the play and have as much fun as possible. 

It changed the way I view my job as a bassist and music director but last night, eating at one of my favorite restaurants (Tenant) with Sarah, I realized it might need to start changing the way I GO to concerts from now on too.

※ Be Gentle With Yourself! [Daily Guinness]

When I'm developing film, I don't get pissed at it for taking longer than I thought. You don't look at a flower that hasn't opened and get frustrated at the amount of time it's taking to bloom...

Why the hell do that then to ourselves and our creative journey?

Be gentle with yourself my friends, if your evolution is taking longer than you thought.
