[@rachelengel7229]

Thank you for this. YOU Have no idea how badly I needed a pep talk after a week full of epic fails. thank you so much Sarah Joy.. I always look forward to your wed/fri videos on the edge of my seat

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

Your epic fails are not epic at all! Loved the video you sent. So much progress even in a week!

[@RainyDayMEOW]

This really helped me, I had been feeling discouraged lately with my playing ability and my lack of funds to buy a cello case, thank you

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

Glad it can help! Keep going. :)

[@soulspline]

very helpful! The reason I started to Learn Cello was - One day I got this weird feeling that I needed to play Cello... and I felt that I once knew how to play and I don't know why... and Right then and there I decided to get a cello and fiddle with it for a week and i found you as an awesome teacher :) I never wanted to pay to get famous I just need this feeling to get satisfied - to play the tunes inside my head and share it to the world

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

See?! I love that. Such an awesome motivation. I'm so glad to have you as a student.

[@soulspline]

+Sarah Joy much thanks :)

I'm a cellist and it's been 4 years since my last decent practice momentum. I've been trying so hard to get myself back on track. And I'm happy to say that I've been making progress and watching this video just pushed me even more. Thank you so much for this. Please keep doing what you're doing. You're an inspiration. Sending lots of love to you from the Philippines! 💕

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

That's so awesome to hear! Yes, just keep going! Greetings from Texas!

[@JacquesKinnaerCello]

Having a good teacher -like you- also helps in getting through the moments of demotivation :-)

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

I am lucky to have such encouraging students!

[@JacquesKinnaerCello]

Perfect synergy :-)

[@KarlaFlores-jg2oj]

[@bradg8351]

thanks again Sara for always reaching out for the struggling musicians like myself. your parents did an outstanding job in developing you into such a wonderful person.Whatever you do make sure you don't lose you're passion. You are a true godsend for me, and I can almost say for others as well.Thanks again for taking time out to reach back.

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

Oh of course! I hope practicing is still going well for you! I'm just glad I get the chance to inspire and help others. It really is rewarding.

[@LoghanP]

So helpful! You are such an inspiring person Sarah

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

It helps to be passionate about something, I think. :) Very glad to help!

[@hollyvee2843]

I'm learning the cello because I had to quit dance and because of my dyslexia I wasn't a high achiever at school so my dance was the only thing I was good at. So now I want to work towards being good at the cello. Also it's such a gorgeous instrument and I've always loved music

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

Hi Holly, that's wonderful that you have found something else that you can be passionate about. I hope you continue to enjoy it.

[@hjartatslovsang]

Great to hear! Even though my motivation right now is on top but great to have in the back of my head when it is lacking.

[@TheLibrarylife]

Thank you for this video! I think the tip about setting goals for the year/month/day is a great idea and I will start doing that. I didn't practice my violin much as a young child and I regret that now, so sometimes I have trouble staying positive when I think of "what if I'd practiced more..." but this video has made me feel loads better 👍🏼

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

No matter how much someone practices, I think there is always a little regret for not having practiced more. But ignore that voice. It doesn't help or change anything, and it probably means you have a more well-rounded life! Glad the video could be encouraging!

[@TheLibrarylife]

+Sarah Joy Thank you for the encouragement☺️

[@pwnayr]

I really like your discussion videos, thank you!

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

Oh thank you! I have fun making them!

[@solacehealer]

I needed this. I am god-awful at the violin, but it's easier than the cello to lug around. I fell in love with the cello, and love its sound. I don't love the sound I get from the violin, why am I wasting my time on it?!?? Thank you again!

[@sarabueno5695]

Thanks for this vid, you inspired me a lot!! 👏🏻

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

Awesome! Thanks for the comment Sara!

[@jessicakhaw542]

Wow I love your videos so much!!!! You're such an inspiration to all aspiring musicians ❤️

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

I am so glad that I can help in that way!

[@marielgonzalez5910]

Thank you for this ideas!! I'm a piano student and I'm going to put this on practice :) Love your videos, you are a spectacular musician!

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

Wonderful!! I always like making videos that can be applied other instruments besides the cello. Thank you for the encouragement!

[@yanwogo]

it's great motivation.. I am so blessed ... GBU .. Hehehe

[@viridian_meridian]

Someday I want to make evocative music with amazing people, that's my goal.

[@sarahjoyrecordings]

It's definitely a fulfilling life!
