>Most of the people who don't achieve their dreams miss out for the same reason you would have her miss out. Simply give up. World class athletes don't simply give up their dreams. They drive forward to achieve them.
You are forgetting that there are world sporting competitions for that purpose. The olympics are meant to promote relations among countries not to promote individuals. For example, the world gymnastics winner isn't necessarily the gold medal winner of the olympics...
