This week we break down the first principles of note investing, life, and business. All viewed through the scope of our first 100 episode of the Note MBA podcast. We realized there have been some interesting trends and motifs that have emerged throughout the first 100 episodes.

So, today we discuss those principles, as well as a few of our favorite moments.

We kick off this week's Best of Note MBA-esque show with Episode 7: We're Not Gurus. This was a seminal episode for us, where we put a line in the sand about what the show would and wouldn't be. During this show we also talked about how we breakdown a note tape.

Episode 8: Joel Markovitz, VP of Business Development, is the next show up for discussion. An interview with a servicer can usually be a daunting task. However, time with Joel Markovitz is always pleasant. This was also the episode we announced we were on the home page of iTunes. This is something that we could not have accomplished without our growing community.

After this, Robby took some time to talk about NoteLinQ. We launched the service on the show during Episode 18: NoteLinQ. It's no longer available, however, it pointed out some of the systemic issues within the industry. The fact that it is no longer available highlights a few key things, a lack of operational execution and lack of capital. Robby parlayed the experience into a further understand of choosing the right things to go after in business and life.

We continue review some of our favorite shows and guests that have graciously appeared on the show. After musing for a bit, we land on our collective opinions on what the first 100 episodes of the show have been. It wouldn't be prudent to view any one episode in isolation. The experience and knowledge we look to impart to ourselves every time we hit record is something we think will bring value to others.

At the foundation, the core, of progress you have first principles. Fundamental truths that when observed and practiced almost guarantee a harvest. For us, for these first 100 episodes, those first principles have been consistency, omnipresence, and goals.

Whether you've been here since episode 1 or 100, thank you for being apart of the Note MBA community. Here's to the next 100.
