Jennifer Lawrence is "so good at letting go at the end of the day".

The Oscar-winning actress has enjoyed a hugely successful career in Hollywood, and Jennifer feels fortunate that she doesn't take her work home with her.

She told Variety: "My bad habit is I’m so good at letting go at the end of the day, that I don’t think about the next day. And then it’s a mad scramble in the hair and makeup trailer."

Jennifer, 35, thinks her approach is beneficial for her personal life. However, she acknowledges that it can make her work life more stressful than it needs to be.

She said: "It’s great for my life. It makes me not go crazy, but the next morning is hell.

"With Silver Linings, I had a scene where I’m just yelling nothing but sports stats to Bob De Niro and it’s obviously hard to memorise. It’s just numbers and sports, which I don’t care about. I didn’t know that I had to do that until the day of, and it’s Robert De Niro and I’m like, 'I’m not going to f****** waste Robert de Niro’s time.' So that’s an example of a really bad thing to do."

Meanwhile, Jennifer previously admitted that she suffered self-doubts before giving birth to her first child.

The Hollywood star conceded that she didn't know what to expect from motherhood and how she would cope with the challenge of raising her child.

Jennifer - who has Cy, three, and a son called Louie, who was born earlier this year - told Vogue magazine: "It’s so scary to talk about motherhood. Only because it’s so different for everybody.

"If I say, It was amazing from the start, some people will think, It wasn’t amazing for me at first, and feel bad. Fortunately I have so many girlfriends who were honest. Who were like, It’s scary. You might not connect right away. You might not fall in love right away. So I felt so prepared to be forgiving.

"I remember walking with one of my best friends at, like, nine months, and being like, 'Everyone keeps saying that I will love my baby more than my cat. But that’s not true. Maybe I’ll love him as much as my cat?'"
