There are a number of reasons why this wouldn't work very well. It is a kind of mental game, which would get tiresome quickly. It is a kind of self-dishonesty. Any effect would quickly wear off, I am pretty sure. Besides, we should teach people how to be comfortable with their speech and to communicate easily and well in whatever situation they find themselves in, without having to pretend that something is true that is not.
