I gathered that. It's cool. Yes, some people struggle more with their stutter than others. Yes, stuttering is ambiguous. But, no necessary connection between our efforts and results? That's untrue. I respectfully disagree with that. You'll hear from prolific entrepreneurs, sports personalities etc about work rate. Those that are the best in the world wanted to be that so badly! They wanted it more than everybody they were around. You can spend 20 hours a week practicing something to help your speaking. However if you're doing it wrong you're speech is going to stay the same. So that's where working smarter is better than working more. But once you know what to focus on, that's when you hit it full force. Which is when the best athletes etc are training/working while others are resting. They want it more than the others. That's realism. The amount of effort and dedication you put in is EXACTLY what you'll get out of it. This is why it's important for our community to be empowered to create positive change. So they know there's things they can do to improve their speaking and improve their quality of life too. Regardless of where they may be in their speaking.
