00:09I don't drink. I'm six years sober. I don't drink alcohol anymore. Yeah. I've given it up. Was it bad?
00:17No, I wouldn't say it was bad.
00:19I didn't know. I wouldn't say it was bad, but definitely it put me in bad situations. Both as a
00:28person and as an actor? As a person. And also, as an actor, it's almost like I was relying on
00:35it too much. At the end of the day, that's what you're using as a tool for doing.
00:39What is that, Jake? For example, did you start drinking? No, no, no. Not like that. But of course, when
00:48I was younger, I used to live for the nightlife. I used to love to party. I used to love
00:53to finish. Everything was about it? Yeah. So almost like it was even more important than work at times for
01:01me. So socializing, friends.
01:03What made you stop? Honestly, what made me stop was my incident when I had a run-in with the
01:10police. We had the chase. That one I remember. It was a rock bottom for me. But I was very
01:16lucky that when it happened in my life, ABS was there to reassure me that my career was intact, we
01:22were still going to work. So at least I was relieved of that. But at the same time, I already
01:27felt uncomfortable because I've been finding myself in a situation like this.
01:31But that was a turning point of your life. Yeah. But like I say, with a rock bottom, it's an
01:38opportunity to rise. Like actually, it can be a powerful driving force that will motivate you for success if you
01:45use it correctly.
01:46That's right. Because when you're at the bottom, you're at the rock bottom. Where else can you go?
01:52Yeah, there's only one way to go.
02:30There's only one way to go.
