While we are trying to get the string out of myString, we would try to use the key instead of the value to fetch it.
const myString = {
string: "Programming with Treehouse is fun!",
countWords: function(){

myString.characters = myString.string.length;
var numWords = myString.countWords();
Hope that helps!
