I haven't gotten used to it completely, but I am often relieved to avoid a terrible faux pas, overreaction, or inappropriate response when I take a step back before clicking "send" on an email.
In general, thinking twice before speaking (when I remember to do it!) has made me more considerate and my speech more appropriate. The trick is to consider other perspectives and to consider how I might be wrong in that moment before committing to hasty speech.
