Emma McKeon opened up about the mindset that young swimmers around Australia should follow in their career.

In an interview, McKeon shared that young swimmers need to have a dream and the courage to chase it. She also mentioned that at a young age, dreams can change with time, but aspiring swimmers must be able to set their goals and persist with them. She said (via ANU TV YouTube channel, 12:21 onwards):

"Similar to what I said before just having a dream and going after it. I think when you're young, you do have these big dreams and just like when I was five years old, I wanted to go to the Olympics and I mean I had lots of other dreams too and they changed overtime... So you know, you have dreams and goals that change over the years but just learning how to set goals and how to persist and go after them, that's really valuable."

During the conversation, Emma McKeon also said that she learned these aspects about her goals with time, and that it is also important for young athletes to get accustomed with this.
