Where's Your Olympic Gold Medal?

So far it has been a magical 2016 Rio Olympics for a few super stars like swimmer Michael Phelps and the entire women’s gymnastic team. Record setting performances, personal triumphs of skill and artistry and finally years of work rewarded on the podium with some new gold jewelry.

Redding once again is represented with our own Megan Rapinoe playing soccer for Team USA. With some luck, she will once again lead the team and bring home the top prize with our wonderful American squad!Can you imagine what it is like to be standing there on the top step of the podium accepting your reward for being the best?  After years of training. Endless work, injuries, training and re-hab. Countless competitions, thousands of travel miles, tiny hotel rooms or sleeping in the back of the car while family drives cross country yet again. Can you hear the sounds, the roar, the music? The National Anthem is playing in the background while your teammates, family and thousands of US fans are going crazy cheering your moment!It must be a blur of pride, tears and relief from the pressure.

How will your life change? How will your confidence grow? What’s next? What new challenge and goal can your conquer? For us mere mortals we seldom get an opportunity to be recognized for our efforts and skills. Once past grade school the “gold stars” and happy face stickers are replaced by monthly paychecks.There is no anthem, no cheering or high fives.A trip to the bank and you start all over again.If you own a business, teach a class, or lead a team you might want to find a simple inexpensive way to cheerlead your best performers and customers.
