Yes bro that's the intention all together. But since my stutter sometimes is very severe when speaking normal, I'm trying the one word pauses first for about a full month or so, just to give myself time to adjust to the pausing itself. Once comfortable enough, I'll try two words and so on. But I'm trying level best to sound natural and maintain goof eye contact. With good eye contact, people won't focus so much on the pausing I'm doing.
