Last night, I just watch that movie "The king's Speech". Somehow, I just can relate myself to Duke of York the same problem he has to face with his life. He was a stammer, and he has problem to speak fluently in front of bunch of people, even in reading. But, if he can forget about other people's existence, or he simply onto himself, he might be able to speak fluently without stammer. For myself, I might have such problem, a fear to speak publicly. I just lost my focus, or I might be getting nervous, or shaking with my hands when speak in front of public. Has someone encounter such problem too?

probably not. I never encourter this problem. Maybe I can give you an advice. You spend thirty minutes each day standing before the mirror and practice his speech. That is a good method.

I loved The King's Speech. Colin Firth for Best Actor! As far as relating, I would think plenty of people could relate to to his problems. Public speaking is one of the fears that most people have. I don't stutter, but I'm shy and having to speak in front of a crowd of people is a nightmare to me. So I could relate and sympathize with the way he seemed to approach the microphone with fear, like it was a monster. I'd be doing the same think. And even people who aren't normally shy or afraid to speak in public must have experienced a time when they couldn't think of the right thing to say or they meant one thing but said it wrong and it caused trouble. Or they felt intimidated by someone and couldn't get the words out. And that should give people at least a small way of relating to him.
