But you... you worry a little bit because you have kids.

What kinds of things do you do to make yourself feel more relaxed?
2:27
Well, I think, like you said,
2:30
one useful thing to do could be to try to be rational.
2:36
So, to think that what you're worried about probably isn't that important or...
2:44
or likely to happen.
2:46
Yeah. So, you're quite chilled, as you said.
2:48
That must be nice for your friends.
2:50
Yes.
2:51
And if you have, like you said, a friend who worries about everything,

Listening to music, playing an instrument can help.
3:31
Something that just kind of takes that time away.
3:36
It takes your mind off the stress, yeah.
