It doesn't make any sense

It doesn't make any sense I've heard a lot of "the more you resist stuttering, the worse it'll be". My logic says "ok, then if I don't resist stuttering, I won't stutter". But- what? It doesn't make any sense. I mean, if not resisting stuttering means I won't stutter, then I'm focusing on not resisting stuttering IN ORDER TO not stutter. It is contradictory. Could someone explain that to me, please?
