>As we prove the validity of these positive perceptions, they will turn into beliefs. And so, over time, we can change ourselves to become more positive. I understand. The problem with aiming for 'positive thoughts and feelings' is that any kind of thought and feeling is not needed to focus on maintaining the forward flow. In fact, if we depend on any thought or feeling, whether positive or negative, it will only reinforce overreliance on sensory feedback which paralyzes speech muscles, causing a speech block.
