Thinking is accompanied by some kind of 'brain voice' in my head - this is sort of a dialogue in monologue and it gets obsessive. If I manage to switch off and sleep or do something that demands attention so the internal voice stops, I find I may have moved on past barriers.
There is a public language of thinking that is highly restrictive and various rules on how thinking can be presented through gatekeeping activities. Much 'thought' seems based on copying and in my areas of current study (organisation theory and economics) it's pretty clear we keep copying mistakes.
