This quote suggests that there is no direct connection between a person's achievements as a child and their future success as a professional athlete. It indicates that excelling in sports during childhood does not necessarily guarantee a successful career in athletics. Factors such as talent development, training, dedication, and opportunities that arise later in life may have a greater impact on becoming a professional athlete rather than childhood accomplishments alone.
