Self-overhearing is the technique in which one says something orally, and then re-interprets the meaning of the words to create a different understanding of one's previous comprehension. It is practiced in both literary works and in real life. For example, in Hamlet, Hamlet has several soliloquies in which he develops a new mindset based on his previous thoughts and opinions. I, too, talk to myself occasionally to sort my thoughts and to attain a greater understanding of my own thinking. Critical thinking and the development of one's mind is accomplished through the practice of self-overhearing.
