How a kid beat his idol

If you had watched the Rio Olympics, or if you looked at the news, one striking story covered how a kid beat someone whom he deeply respected and idolized since he was young. That young kid is Joseph Schooling and his idol is Michael Phelps. Schooling from a young age wanted to be like Phelps and he trained really really hard, so that he could one day be like his idol. He focused on his goals everyday and at 21 he qualified for the Olympics, beating Phelps in the butterfly event finally. This shows us that we are never too young to have great dreams and as Walt Disney once said: All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
