[00:07.62]Self-help books
[00:10.10]3 The advice you will hear comes from two books

[00:26.84]a) Water while-you-wait
[00:30.20]You can never drink enough water,
[00:32.60]so keep a bottle of filtered water
[00:34.18]in your car and drink it
[00:36.03]while you wait at red lights.

[00:39.93]for people who spend a lot of time on the road.
