Many things in life come in threes. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Scissors, paper, rock. Beginning, middle, and end. Recently I realized something else might also come in threes. >> Got any hobbies? >> What do you answer when you get asked that? See, when you're a kid, the answer comes easily. >> And as you grow older, those hobbies change until eventually you find something that feels a little different. something that doesn't just fill your time, but starts to shape who you are.

For me, that was making videos. I even wanted to go to film school for years. If anyone asked me that question, >> it was the first thing I'd say. >> I make videos. >> But now, >> got any hobbies? uh I don't mention it anymore. And as you make new friends, colleagues, people you meet along the way, the only person who remembers that version of you is you. I think at any given time, a person can only nurture three aspects of their life at once. career often takes up one of those spots.

Kids would be a huge one. And if you try to fit more than that, you'll burn out or something will become neglected. >> How's work? >> What? >> Yeah. >> Uh, chill. We had team lunch. >> Oh, yeah. >> You know, everyone is calling you the car guy now. >> Car guy? >> Why? Uh, I think it's cuz when I talk about you, it's like we went for a drive or you did something to your car. >> Interesting. >> Oh, you know what my manager said today? >> What? >> I didn't know you were into that kind of stuff.

I thought you were just a gym guy. >> I think it's reasonable. What do you think you are? Since the start of the year, my habits drifted towards whatever fit neatly inside my 9 to5. So, whatever caused the least friction, that's what I did. Maybe they're right. >> What do you think? It'd been months since I'd made a video, and it seemed like it'd be more months until the next one. >> And once a version of you stops showing up long enough, people stop seeing it.

Then eventually, so do you. Hello. Is this NRMA roadside assistance? military began major combat operations in Iran. >> Yet another dangerous and deadly escalation >> saying some have jacked up prices prematurely >> with the straight of moves now closed. >> There is not less supply. This is an issue has been an issue of increased demand. >> Diesel topping $3 a liter. >> The only thing rising faster than the price of fuel across the city is anxiety and anger. >> The economic shocks caused by this war will be with us for months. >> At over $2 a liter, I started doing the math every time I filled up.

Is this drive even worth it? One of my three things eventually stopped. And one day there was space again. got any hobbies? >> Yeah, actually, uh, I make videos outside of work. >> Oh, nice. How often do you do that? >> Uh, you know, I try and make time for it. Oh, yeah. >> Obviously, like >> I think the only time I get is >> many things in life come in threes. >> Do anything like >> breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Scissors, paper, rock, and me.

To my colleagues, I'm a car guy. To some people, I'm the gym guy. To the friends who knew me earlier, I'm probably still the video guy. For a while, I thought one of those had to be the real one. And that if life pushed one part of me out of the equation, it meant that I had lost it. So, if I presented myself as if I was still that version of me, it would be dishonest. >> Welcome home, Alex. The time is 9:15 p.m. You have one overdue reminder.

Finalize video script. Would you like me to mark as complete? >> But maybe that's not true. Although we may not have time to cater to every interesting aspect of ourselves, even if every day feels the same as the last. One thing that's guaranteed is that life moves in seasons. And when one thing inevitably goes quiet, something else will return. And maybe life does come in threes. Who you were, who you became, and who patiently waits for you when the season changes.
