If you are obviously thinking about what you say, the individual you are speaking with will be impressed and will find that you are a "careful" individual, more professional and smart. Since dyslexics flip pronouns around and will say an inversion of what they mean to say, the simple task of thinking through a sentence or phrase will help to eliminate this embarrassing mistake. When you are speaking with another person, do you tend to jumble pronouns when writing letters, papers, e-mails or when you're speaking with someone? For example, instead of you saying, "John went to the store to buy Jane a dog," you say, "Jane when to the store to buy John a dog. John went to the store to buy Jane a dog), make sure you think about what you need to say before you say it.
