Thank you for joining us for our 7 days a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. This is Day 322 of our trek. Yesterday, we stopped by the baseball fields and discovered 9 Life Lessons from Baseball. It is such a beautiful spring day that today we will stay at the ball fields and explore what baseball can teach us about our finances.
Thank you so much for coming along with me as we discover that each event of our daily trek in life, whether small or large, is packed with wisdom and insight that we can learn and apply to our lives to expand our living legacy. These bits of wisdom will help us to live a rich and satisfying life that we were created for. While some of our daily treks are a multi-part series, you can join us at any time and start along with us from that point on.

You can also subscribe to Wisdom-Trek on iTunes, Spreaker, Stitcher, Soundcloud, and Google Play, so each day’s trek will be downloaded to you automatically.
