BOLD JOURNEY
Meet Hugo Meyer
“I attribute much of my self-disciple to being part of a sports team in my younger years. I was a soccer player for all of my childhood and later played for Germany semi-professionally in 1998-2000. In soccer you are expected to show up on-time, in uniform, ready for practice and give it your all. In order to improve upon yourself you develop self-discipline. You develop the discipline to get enough rest, eat appropriately, schedule your activities and personal life appropriately. I believe this attribute bled over into my professional career which is also a requirement of being a successful entrepreneur.”
