Jonathan and Nolan discuss the similarities between sports, investing, and what it takes to be consistent. There are many lessons we can learn from stories about sports that are consistent with investing. Athletes tend to get into business/sales after their playing careers because the experiences they have related to failure, perseverance, and discipline. As investors, we love Warren Buffett and we talk about him because he is so well known. 

As 2022 begins, Jonathan and I discuss what it means to hold each other accountable to our actions and how discipline is going to play such a large role in what we want to accomplish this year and beyond. Financial goals are also very important and many athletes need to learn how to set those goals and where to begin.
