"The other major one is rehearsing possible social interactions, or having hypothetical conversations,..."

This week I started to experiment writing dialogs to untangle complicated situations where I don't know where to start from. It helps me to overcome mental blocks, when the situation becomes overwhelming.

One character is more logical, the other one is the one performing the actions. It's like a coach talking to a player. After a while coming back and forth fro the dialog and the code editor, I find myself in a deep flow, and then I don't need to write but I can "imagine" the conversation.

I was wondering if dialogues have a special properties for driving thinking, then I remembered Plato the philosopher, he use to write his "Plato dialogues" although I never read them.
