Today as the world celebrates the start of the Olympics, we want to recognize the many athletes who have had stellar careers but narrowly missed out on the Olympics due to various reasons like not making the team, missing qualifying times, injuries, boycotts, or rule changes. Here are some of the most well-known ones: David Beckham, Allen Iverson, Jimmy Connors, Barry Bonds, Karsten Warholm, Jillian Camarena-Williams... Some of Athletes Soul supporters missed out... These athletes, despite not having the Olympic experience, have left significant marks in their respective sports and are celebrated for their achievements. Can you think of others that we should remember and celebrate? 🤔 #OlympicDreams #AthleteJourney #AthletesSoul #sportcareer #athleticcareer

Life is Ball Game Sports life in Suits I see what you did there! "Life is a ball game" is a common idiomatic expression that means life is full of ups and downs, twists and turns, just like a game. And then you added "Sports life in Suits", which is a clever play on words. It seems like you're suggesting that life is like a sports game, but instead of wearing athletic gear, we're wearing suits and navigating the challenges of professional life. It's a creative and humorous way to look at the ups and downs of life and career! https://lnkd.in/dTcxaa6E #July #NewQuarter #NewTargets
