How To Stay INSPIRED To Practice and Keep Learning • Guitar Motivation • Joe Robinson

[@patrick4228]

I am not kidding, yesterday I was thinking the whole day: how in the world can I get in touch with Joe Robinson - one of the best guitar players I've seen in my life - and ask him something personal. I was really keen in knowing how a musician like yourself stays motivated, focused, interested,..in music after all this time you've been playing. And today you post this video. I'm flabbergasted! Many thanks for your advice and answering all of my questions at once!

[@Joe_Robinson]

Thanks Patrick!!!! All the best mate 🤘🏻

[@malachiazariah7237]

you prolly dont care but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times you can stream pretty much all the new series on Instaflixxer. Been binge watching with my gf during the lockdown :)

[@cesarbraylon6708]

@Malachi Azariah yea, have been watching on Instaflixxer for years myself =)

Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish. Hey Joe, I think you’re one of the most inspirational, motivational speakers I've ever heard, and I’m 73!

[@miketempero6073]

Stay hungry, stay foolish. Your video pep talks are so inspirational Joe, they really resonate with me. Not just about music but having a balanced life too.

[@brianbillings6815]

Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish! Great video because I've been struggling for motivation. I've been confused about my direction and the path forward. I now realize I've become distracted and need to look within and reevaluate/eliminate my distractions.

[@ChrisJCarter]

Leaving Facebook allowed me more time to learn about music, gardening and cooking great meals. I've learned so much on KZbin and I'm a lot more inspired and happy! Facebook is a waste of time!

[@Joe_Robinson]

I’ve had the same experience! Cheers Chris ✌🏻

[@tookamooka]

😲 had to check the playback speed on this one! thanks for the inspiration!

[@KRE808]

I wasn't expected to be inspired by a non-guitar playing Joe Robinson video. Lots of practical advice mixed in with more abstract stuff. Love it. Appreciate the book references as well, my immediate task is to look at those and see which one I want to read first. Just a beginner guitarist but right at that moment where I feel like giving up. This video encouraged me to keep at it, and to stay hungry, stay foolish.

[@Joe_Robinson]

Thanks for watching! I think Peak would be the book I recommend most highly to any guitar players... cheers!

[@andrewdurocher2786]

Thank you for sharing these personal and helpful insights.

[@tonybaloney6656]

Bewdy mate , thanks for your insights . Its all helpful for me to learn guitar . “stay hungry stay humble” another good saying works for me. I’m off to the crossroads 👍👍

[@MikeJonesWho]

Thanks Joe. Appreciate you sending this out.

[@sabeesunwar7558]

Stay hungry. Stay foolish.........and stay focused....thnx for this yet another great vdo Joe🙏🙏🙏

[@TrueRoyalsFan]

Thanks Joe. This is awesome and wise council.

[@trigelvza]

Thank you, bro. This is very timely as a self-thought guitarist. I am experiencing a plateau in my practice. I feel stock. Thank you for the inspiration. "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish"

[@TheDjangojunkie]

Very inspiring. Thanks Joe

[@K.L.G_Productions]

Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish. This is a very soulful video with some meaningful life lessons. Thanks for sharing. 🙏🔮

[@tenogliaboystv6503]

Stay Hunger, Stay Foolish! Sage words Joe! Let what you Love, be what You do! Thanks Joe! You are Simply Splendid!

[@TheUltra25]

Great video, very wise suggestions! Thank you, Joe :)

[@timburn]

Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish. Your killing it joe. I feel like I am watching you for most of my TV time through guitar synergy and these videos. Keep up the great content.

[@jonnyoakley5794]

Brilliant video Joe ! Just got your Tab for misty and really excited to learn it. Stay hungry, stay foolish!

[@Joe_Robinson]

Awesome Johnny! All the best with your playing mate!! 🤘🏻

[@CulotteShalott]

Forever hungry, perennially and spectacularly foolish! 🧚🏻‍♀️✨

[@focusconsultinggroupinc.4324]

Wow. What a good guy Joe seems to be. Not to mention talented and inspiring. I've sent this video to friends and business colleagues. worth watching for sure.

[@59simonh]

Love this video.

[@saints2551]

My inspiration is john mayer but for a person that has never played a guitar until 30 not a very good 1st choice to start learning hes insanely hard i found out real quick lol

[@MCbarry4]

Amazing Joe! I really love the part of the craftsmanship, that we should be so inspired to get good at something and make your craft such a valuable thing to add to the world, that just that, fills you up with energy. I've been checking out your videos alot the past months and you are such a humble, kind and wise person, always looking to stay curious and willing to learn and above that, share everything you got on life, with us. Inspiring! Thank you Joe. Also alot of good book recommendations, will check em out. See you at your synergy channel!

[@cherpendarvis-studios]

Stay hungry - Stay foolish! Thank you Joe for your inspiring music and also helpful lessons such as this one! I took notes for my guitar playing journal! By the way, I'm enjoying your Fingerstyle series of lessons on Udemy. You're a wonderful teacher. In your course (and this video) you mentioned your routine of playing at 4 am in the morning. I'm a morning person too and since I joined your course, I've been practicing from 4:30 to 6 am. The world is peaceful and quiet at that time and it's a prefect time to focus! Thank you so much for this wonderful lesson. I hope that when you're touring again that we can see you play in person. Best wishes to you and yours. :)

[@Joe_Robinson]

Love that so much! Thank you for sharing

[@stevoiibeats6688]

Thank you great

[@andrewclark953]

the most important thing for me is to find predictable time slot that is reserved for practice, i look forward to that and also for a short period after I finish playing to evaluate how I feel how I am changing and where I can expect to be ,the light at the end of the tunnel of the daily grind.Love your dedication man ,inspiration is your business !!!

[@BasilWahn]

Not only as a musician but also as a cognitive scientist I have to say: I fully agree! Great advice and very well put! :-)

[@Joe_Robinson]

I really appreciate that Basil!!

[@paulkaufman5031]

Stay hungry, stay foolish. I LOVE these videos, Joe. Often they are the push I need to get myself back on track. Highly inspiring, motivating, insightful and encouraging.

[@lesliechen1214]

This problem has been bothering me for a long time. Thank you for sharing Joe!

[@Joe_Robinson]

All the best Leslie!!

[@instrumentenfreak]

Great advice! Thank you :-)

[@brigittetorres9745]

❤️🎶❤️ I am progressing a little in English because what you say interests me 😃 Sharing as you do is great ideas. I also like salt crystal lamps 🌎 Can’t wait to listen to the new live 👍 MERCI Joe 🙏🙏🙏

[@archtop]

Joe I know I keep fan boying, but you seem to have such timely serendipitous things for me, I was working on Misty, --you came out with the Carter video on that Gibson with the P-90's, Then you got that guitar, right after I was gifted an original stock '66 Gibson with chrome covered P-90's. I've known I need to practice better. - Bam, you post the Talent is BS vid. Today you mention cooking and listening to good speakers ( I probably have 20 sets of speakers. Thanks brother, your inspiration is immeasurable.

[@Joe_Robinson]

Wow! We are in sync somehow - too cool about the 66’ Gibson with the P-90’s!!! They sound so great. I recorded some new videos with the 175 yesterday. Nothing like a good set of speakers to listen to a great recording, one of my favorite things about being home this past year. Cheers mate 🤘🏻

[@PardalRick]

Thank you, joe !

[@nancylukes9791]

Stay hungry, stay foolish! Love the books in the background, Joe. Interesting to hear about your diet. Lots of protein to give you all of that energy. Love your artistry. My dream guitar is to own a Maton Joe Robinson Signature someday. Plus, the goal of playing your version of Misty etc. Such incredibly interesting music you create! So inspiring!

[@Joe_Robinson]

Thanks Nancy! The Maton signature is a great instrument. All the best to you!!! 🤘🏻

[@mooseymoose]

I dunno, I have been playing music for over 40 years and never really even considered motivation or inspiration at all. I just love music and that’s it. I feel like there is no other thing for me. Even if I had to quit playing because of injury or whatever I would still be in love with the music. I just don’t consider ‘progress’ at all. It will come with doing something every day. Of course my perspective is only my own. Ymmv. Fwiw.

[@rvmusictv0122]

You’re amazing person Joe! An inspiration and motivation to play music. Great human being. Greetings from Winnipeg Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️🙏 Just subscribed Joe.

[@Joe_Robinson]

Thanks Ramon!!

[@horaciorosas2467]

Excelentes ideas!!! . Sirven para mucho más que la práctica musical. Gracias

[@Joe_Robinson]

Muchas gracias!!

[@zoltanblazsik9461]

Stay hungry, stay foolish! ;) I love how passionate you are and it is contagious! I have a great job, live a joyful life but for years now I have been trying to make some room for learning more music, creating music because I miss it. Lately, I am able to play my guitar again (after learning it for more than 10 years) and hone my skills by watching the inspiring ones like you, Tommy Emmanuel and carefully studying the insightful lessons of @Michael Palmisano. After watching this inspirational video I'll definitely read some of the books you mentioned. Do you suggest a specific order of the books (or which one is a must read according to you)? I am looking forward to the new Live from home stream even though usually it starts pretty late in Hungary. By the way, after these troubled times I would love to bring my children to your live concert in Hungary because it was a blast when you visited us about 10 years ago (together with Bernard Harris).

[@Joe_Robinson]

Thanks Zoltan!!! I have such great memories of being in Hungary!! Bernard does too. I think the must read book for me is Peak. I think it’s the kind of book every musician would benefit from reading, I can wholeheartedly recommend it. So glad you’re making good use of all the great tools available now! Michael Palmisano’s videos are terrific. Great that he’s helping people learn so many good songs. All the best and hope to see you in Hungary again one of these days ✌🏻 Joe

[@leighannpoulle4095]

Stay hungry! Stay foolish! So inspiring ☺️ I'm definitely motivated to keep following you xoxo

Thanks LeighAnn!!! ❤️

Love that quote!! Cheers Steve!

[@semacoustic3394]

Very nice ❤️👍

[@guitarguy7596]

Less chicken more cow....personally I'd ditch the chicken altogether. Check out Dr Shawn Baker, Dr Paul Saladino, prof Tim Noakes, Nina Ticholz and the low carb downunder channel. Can't remember which song it was but one of your Carter Vintage videos and it's one of the best guitar performances I have seen (and I've been around the block more than once or twice). You're a champ. Stay hungry Stay Foolish.

[@Joe_Robinson]

I agree. I maybe should have clarified that in the video, I didn't want to get too deep in the diet thing. The 1/8th of Beef I regularly buy is the majority of my calories. Probably eat Chicken 4 or 5 days per month. Good for making broth etc. and good to change things up sometimes. Very familiar with that crew - I went zero carb for a while and felt really good. I also like Mark Hyman, Rhonda Patrick, Jason Fung and David Pearlmutter. Thanks on the Carter Vintage Video! I had to buy that guitar.. it was calling me!! Cheers and all the best, Joe

[@jaylichty]

Stay hungry, stay foolish. Nice talk Joe. Very inspirational.

[@Joe_Robinson]

Thanks Jay ✌🏻

[@dmitry.skripnikov]

Great video! It was interesting to hear about you nutrition habits, particularly that you buy protein from farms and grow some plants in your garden. I also like cooking and never buy processed stuff. I can’t catch the name of the plant you mention between bok choy and kale, what is it? :)

[@Joe_Robinson]

Nice one Dmitry! Kindred spirits! They call it Arugula here in the US. In Australia it is called ‘rocket’. Very easy to grow and tasty

[@dmitry.skripnikov]

@@Joe_Robinson thanks, Joe! It’s good to know. They call it “rucola” in Russia and here in Finland.

[@andrewfrancis7739]

Fools stay hungry, be foolish! Did I do it right? Nice video once again Joe

[@dennismenezes9423]

So cool 'Joe youtuber' , hehe One question .. when you have a lot of shows to do, how does your routine works? Do you have another routine when traveling to keep practicing? Or you just try to do what you can do, but not so organized ? ° GUITAR SYNERGY link sent me to "Something's wrong here. This is a 404 error ..." °° English is not my first language .. I saw the video about mean comments, you talking about grammar .. so, feel free to correct if there is something wrong (‾ʖ̫‾) Stay hungry, stay foolish ! !

[@Joe_Robinson]

Cheers Dennis!! Thanks for letting me know about the link.. will check it out, but it's working for me. When on tour it is a different routine.. but I still keep a practice journal and I always stretch and warm up a little before I play. The priority when I'm on the road is always first, to travel safely, which means getting enough rest and leaving enough time for the drive or flight etc. Second is to put on a great show, which also means resting and being well rehearsed.. from there it's about trying to eat well and make the best use of my time. It's a whole different set of challenges. I miss it, but I've enjoyed having a home routine this past year.
