Yes 100% but I’m cool with that. I’m not that smart so being a lawyer and a doctor was never an option but I do think that couldn’t do it even if I did have the grades. Same goes for being in the police, I couldn’t possible talk to strangers and enforce the law. Currently I’m working as a manager in a kitchen and it’s something I’d never think I could do. I’ve been pushed out of my comfort zone by my boss (who knows I have a stutter) and it’s shown me in capable of a lot more than I thought. I was doing a questionnaire the other day and it asked if I’d even been rejected a job due to my stutter. I honestly don’t think I have. These have been just small part time jobs though. In conclusion, I’m not sure if my stutter does limit my potential. I think it would but seeing my progress so far, maybe I could be capable of something like a lawyer or something else that relies heavily on communication
