			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Athletes are not only for athletics, they also have a huge potential in being hired in a business interview or being promoted in a company. A sales guru, Jeffrey Gitomer said that his employees who play sports are the one who performs best.</p>
<p>I agree to Gitomer. Being an athlete you have certain qualities that give you advantage from other co-employees. The following are personal observations:</p>
<ul>?athletes know the sense of teamwork</ul>
<ul>?they are goal oriented people</ul>
<ul>?they have proper motivation in finishing a task</ul>
<ul>?they apply strategies to be more effective</ul>

<p>Ever since, when referred to athletics, usually we immediately can think of sports events having played by males. But nowadays, females can do what males do. But what’s behind the issue of athletes having gender change?</p>
<p><a href="http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/21112007/3/buschbaum-set-quit-athletics-sex-change-op.html  ">Yvonne Buschbaum</a> was one of the athletes who preferred to have a sex change. She claimed that she experienced mental imbalance. She doesn’t want anymore to live in a woman’s body but still feeling like a man.</p>
<p>Decisions like this in athletics are not unusual. For me, what matters is their dedication in what they do. As long as they can do their passion, there’s nothing wrong right? They’re indeed inspiring individuals.</p>
