You probably know some people who seem eternally calm even when faced with the agony of waiting for important outcomes that won't be resolved until a future time point. It may irritate you when these fret-free people tell you to chill out. It’s even more annoying when they say they’re not at all worried about the exact same situation that’s got you so preoccupied you can hardly think of anything else.
