To some, the story of success mounts up to 10000 hours. If one trains for 10000 hours, one can probably reach the success they intend to.

When hearing about her ambitions of becoming the greatest gymnast of all time, her mother drew out a plan to facilitate that. 

It was a career-defining moment for the young gymnast who never looked back. The concept of homeschooling is relevant these days in a way to help kids to achieve their dreams. Nellie Biles knew what she had to do and introduced the idea of getting home schooled. That decision became monumental in the course of her career.

Her mother stepped in and gave a bit of life-changing advice. 

“To advance to the elite level and be on that cover, she’d have to be homeschooled… There would be no prom, no after-school activities, no hanging with classmates,” said Ronald. For a young girl to miss out on some of the cherishable moments of her life, Biles had to make a swift decision.
