Blah
I process information outside of my head. If I say something it starts to become real – and the solution starts to shape itself. The problem with this is that the words I say are usually unfinished thoughts. Sometimes talking is the processing taking place – not meaningful finished thoughts. So I have to be careful who I talk to to while I’m processing something big because the final result may not look like the words I’m saying.

I know what you mean. What’s worse is when information is beautifully organized in your head but when you verbalize it, you start fumbling and tripping on your own words. In the end, not only is the receiver confused but you also can’t reorganize your original thoughts. Then you start to question whether they (the ideas) had ever made sense in the first place.

Yeah I know what you mean! When I’m talking to someone important or new, I start to become self aware and I lose my words a lot of the time. But I would say that the ideas did make sense in the first place, we just lose focus sometimes.
