In order to evaluate the potential effectiveness of your tips, I think it's fair for you to share how long you've been using them, how much improvement you've had, how long that has sustained, and how you have recovered after a period of set-back. In this post, there are contradictions and significant misunderstanding of the book. (one example is the last bullet point - OP disagrees with a statement from the book, but the books clearly has that statement in a list of things to NOT do.) Please read the book yourself to see. 1 - page 26 in the book is a checklist of proactive, tangible, accessible steps to take. None of them include constant "analyze one's stuttering behavior", vague inaccessible ideas like "improve your mindset" or breathing control. 7 and 8 seems to be contradictory. Anyways, 7 suggests something that is not a realistic, achievable short-term goal for some. There are other "tricks" that are more tangible (achieveable) that can lead to the same result. OP seems to keep suggesting to not disclose. Disclosing enabled me (and many others!) to go from 100's of blocks/day to only a few/day, and the ability to speak smoothly and comfortably. Disclosing is a VERY challenging and scary thing to do - but it is probably the most important step to take. ​ There are ways to disclose it with "training wheels". Make a single phone call and include a controlled, voluntary stutter. "Hello, what t-t-time do you close today?"
