Simplified Meaning:
In 1960, winning a big boxing tournament showed him that he could really succeed in the sport. This gave him the confidence to aim even higher. Later, when he went on to win at the Olympics, it confirmed for him that he was truly the best of the best. Imagine a student who does well on a school test; it gives them hope that they can do even better. Then, when they win a nationwide competition, they know for sure that they have great talent. This teaches us that small successes can motivate us, but bigger victories can cement our belief in our abilities. If you start achieving little goals, it can help you see that bigger dreams are possible too.
