When the tide turns

As I watched the tide turn in the USAvGermany Women's World Cup match I could feel a deep sense of relief run through my fellow countryman. 

We want to win. 

We expect to win. 

But we have, as spectators no impact on the match. 

We still know and feel in our hearts that from goal one to goal two to final whistle, that the tide is turning. 

We saw it in the players faces and we marvel that they changed disposition so quickly. From the grimace of a PK against them to the relief of "wide left". We watched the tide turn. 

Today at work we hit several highs. Got an award, got a compliment on social media, got an atta-boy from another Operator, and we got recognized for our efforts. 

We leave work knowing that the tide has turned. What will tomorrow bring? What will we learn? Who might we meet? What new emotion could we learn from? What type of impact are we leaving behind? What's going to be our eulogy?

Even with a US victory and gains within a small business; every great leader ask, what's next?
