If I talk to myself it's usually the question, "Why in the f**k did you do that???" *s* "Even if the world were perfect it wouldn't be." ... Yogi Berra | |||

I've always talked to myself = thinking out loud. Sometimes more than others, but I usually am discrete about it. I'm a technical writer-editor and I often read-out particularly troublesome text to help finalize the prose in question. No worries. | |||

I find myself saying “Ranger Up, you don’t have to like it you just have to do it.” With a sigh. Anytime I am in those type of situations. "Guns are tools. The only weapon ever created was man." | |||

When I'm working through an Excel problem, I find talking to myself helps me focus on finding the solution. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

That's very similar to "Rubber Ducky Debugging", a tool utilized by programmers. They have a Rubber Ducky sitting on their desk (sometimes a real one, and sometimes an imaginary one), and will explain their code line-by-line to the Rubber Ducky. Simply talking out loud about it helps them progress through the debugging process. "Many programmers have had the experience of explaining a problem to someone else, possibly even to someone who knows nothing about programming, and then hitting upon the solution in the process of explaining the problem. In describing what the code is supposed to do and observing what it actually does, any incongruity between these two becomes apparent." | |||
