Hi Mr. Winston, You said when you were in your teens the stuttering seemed to improve and I was wondering if you received therapy during this time? If so, what did this therapy entail such as fluency shaping or fluency modification? Also, I believe that today we are judged upon performance and we associate performance on how we are as individuals. If we get praise and acceptance based upon our performance then we think we have done something with our lives but if we don't get the praise and acceptance we feel as though we have failed. As I read your article, I realized how people, inlcuding myself focus too much on performance and the outcome and not enough on inner strength and self reliance. I believe in many instances it truly is mind over matter. Of course, it's easier said then done but I feel your article gives good advice on how to listen to your inner self and let it take over.
