I listened to a podcast show a few days ago. In the show, two hosts interviewed a baseball player. The player has shared the story so far in his career.
In particular, the player indicated the situation in 2020 and gradually, he made a key decision. In 2020, we all knew what happened in that year. Well, the covid-19 pandemic has dramatically changed the world. So has that player.
He had to think about his career. There were some teams, which showed strong interest in signing him. However, there was a key problem, which was the quarantine. The player talked about this seriously. He mentioned that he couldn’t do anything in the hotel room for 2 weeks and he wasn’t able to maintain his condition well.
In 2020, his performance wasn’t good and he wasn’t satisfied. Later on, he decided to change his career trajectory to join another league, which is in hometown.
His career move is certainly a reasonable decision. When I listened to his story, I just thought about one thing. Staying in a hotel for so many days, what can I do?
I used to travel for more than 2 weeks, however, I never stayed in a hotel or an apartment for more than a week while traveling. The player had to stay in the hotel room for 2 weeks. For me, that’s truly hard to imagine. Moreover, my friend had a similar experience. But he’s not an athlete. He could still do some work in a hotel room.
It seems that the covid-19 pandemic was a while ago. Nonetheless, after listening to the podcast show, the story came vivid again. I remembered that back then, traveling seemed to be quite difficult. Thankfully, we can now travel to many countries and things have become quite different from those crazy years.
