I no longer say to myself on every climbout "the only way I'm going to be alive in an hour's time is if I don't screw up".

I’m a little apprehensive before each flight, I don’t take that personally as I think it’s a good thing as it’s quite a serious thing you’re about to do.

Feeling nervous or scared is genuinely down to your confidence and experience, you could work on that.
