People’s conscious awareness of their speech often comes after they’ve spoken, not before.
Good read from the journal NATURE..
People can actually be tricked into thinking they said something that they did not, and it’s only when they are faced with their actual words that they realize how much their mind can be deceptive ..

There is also one other thing—something not mentioned in this study. But did you ever notice how you think you sound different than you actually do, and then you hear your voice on some sort of audio and wince at your own sound? So not only do we not know what we are saying but we also think we sound a lot different than we do.. and when we realize our vocal chords don’t give us the Barry White style by instead the Richard Simmons effect, we hang our heads in shame.
