Mr. Witek spoke about the time when after quitting university in 2013, he found himself feeling like his life had lost all momentum. However, an announcement of Tokyo as the host city for the 2020 Summer Olympics and a random comment made by his father inspired him to take uncertain steps. It led him to join the Language Services Team at the Olympic venues, and along the way discover new passions, skills, and career opportunities. Mr. Witek hopes his story finds its way to those who feel stuck at a crossroads, sparks meaningful conversations, and raises awareness of how important it is for our mental health and self-esteem to set personal goals, no matter how big or small they are.
