Ruben Gonzalez is the only person to ever compete in four Winter Olympics each in a different decade. Ruben started his athletic career at the age of 21 by taking up the sport of luge. He was able to compete in the Winter Olympics four years later, against all odds. At the age of 47, he was the oldest luge competitor racing against 20-year-olds in the Vancouver Winter Olympics.
His story of drive and determination, and his strategy for creating fast results in his Olympic training are now what he shares as time-tested techniques to become unstoppable in business today.
Ruben takes people’s excuses away and proves that ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things. A master storyteller, Ruben uses his Olympic experiences to inspire audiences to think differently, live life with passion and have the courage to take the necessary steps toward their goals – to push beyond self-imposed limitations and to produce better results!
Over the years, Ruben Gonzalez continued to inspire outside of the sporting world. He is now a best-selling author, business consultant and speaker, helping corporations and associations around the world create and sustain business growth…fast.

His clients include Dell, Coca-Cola, Farmers Insurance, Ortho McNeal, the Million Dollar Round Table, Oracle, Wells Fargo, Century21, the U.S. Treasury Department and many more.
