The human mind is a super efficient system.
In communication, implicit language creates these efficiencies. For example, slang, business jargon, the usage of various demonstrative pronouns, and more.
Implicit communication with others
The problem with implicit communication when applied externally (with others) is, our natural tendency to communicate efficiently makes it cognitively-straining to communicate in more explicit, specific, and univocal language.
Implicit communication in our own minds
In our own minds, assumptions represent implicit communication. Our pre-existing information about the world around us form implicit and assumed beliefs about the world. We assume through mental shortcuts we call heuristics.
Often, due to tedious time or energy capacity constraints, we don’t invest enough personal resources to bring these hidden assumptions to light for proper scrutiny.
When we are able to put these assumptions and beliefs on paper, we’re able to see the subconscious and semi-subconscious thoughts that were floating in the back of our minds, which ultimately allows us to effectively calibrate these thoughts.
