Rob Morgan Is A Curious Person

It sounds negative... but it's the reminder and the mindset that's had THE GREATEST positive impact on everything I've ever made! www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/nobodywantsit

I often have the temptation to put people I admire, who are masters at their craft, on a pedestal. Robert Greene's thoughts on mastery have been a massive help in my realization that we all have the potential to be a master. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/mastery

I recently learned there are two journeys to dopamine, easy access or meaningful pursuit, and how you get there makes all the difference in the world. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/dopamine

Some musicians may find this my most controversial opinion ever… But I’m right. You can still be “All about the music“ while understanding that people don’t go to shows with their eyes closed. If you play live, not only do you need to put in the work of finding your musical voice on your instrument, but you also need to find your unique sense of style. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/soundandstyle

Do you have an idea you’re sitting on, but you’ve been hesitant to give it a shot?  Maybe it’s new and you’re nervous. Maybe you don’t know where to start. Maybe you do, but the logistics seem daunting… Kieran Folliard knows what that feels like but thinks you should still give it a shot!  Kieran’s name is synonymous with Irish pubs in the Twin Cities and he just released a new Irish whiskey calle...

For the past few years, I've given multiple creative endeavors a shot outside my 'lane' of being a bass player. Like this podcast! Let's talk about some of the frustrating parts that come alongside that process... www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/stayinyourlane  

Pick any day in the past 6 years... I can tell you EXACTLY where I was and what happened. It's not because I have the best memory in the world, far from it! It's because of something I do called "Logging" - It only takes a couple of minutes each morning and it's one of the most curiously rewarding habits or commitments I've ever made.   www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/writeshitdown

Two conversations have changed the way I look at To-Do lists. One, I had with my friend Cory Wong. The other, I overheard with writer/director Robert Rodriguez. But I don't feel like talking about it...   www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/writeshitdown

Let's talk about ideas, the ego, creative collaboration... my insecurity... and how I got all of this WRONG for years! www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/writeshitdown

A few years back, I found myself in a conversation with B.J. Novak while we were both waiting for our luggage at LAX...  www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/writeshitdown

In Pt. II of this mini-series I'm calling, "Write Sh*t Down!" I dive into the method I've developed of taking notes while listening to podcasts and audiobooks. It's totally different from when you're reading and this Sh*t's important! What you're listening to lately MATTERS and is a reflection of, not only your own curiosity but also your friends', and you'll want to keep track of it, here's why.....

For the longest time, I misunderstood what “manifesting” was. I used to think it was the belief that you can somehow attract what you want. I now realize it’s the understanding that you simply attract what you are. File Under: #ACurious Endeavor ( #Life ) www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/manifesting

As a musician, writer, artist, and human, I’ve realized... the unfortunate temptation, when seeing someone who’s good at something you’re not, is the temptation to assume it comes “naturally” to them. As I was going through my Papa’s desk a couple of weeks ago, I found a stack of letters, never sent, never opened. That changed the way I’ll prioritize relationships and music for the rest of my life...

My grandfather passed away a couple of weeks ago.  Papa and I were extremely close so, I just haven’t had it in me to record a podcast or be on social-media up till now. (Thanks to everyone who reached out to me to check in!) Between this and Sarah’s mom passing recently, the two of us have become what I’ve been referring to as, “students of grief” and one thing I’ve realized is, when confronted w...

For years, as a musician and performance artist, I thought the answer was, “Of course! It can only make you better.” Now… I’ve realized the answer isn’t so cut and dry… File Under: Performing, Music, The Arts https://www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/recordingyourself

Later that night, I found myself at a bar with Sarah complaining about how many IPAs were on tap, and suddenly… I realized they were connected.
