Oh yes, I'm with you in this. I'm a dad to three young kids, and we're often working on conscious language. Just this week, we discussed the way they were saying, "I worked really hard on this!" as a way of justifying its worth. Specifically, they were talking about some Lego creations. I'm sure they learned these words from us, related to a meal we made, or whatever. Anyway, "I worked really hard on this" does value the energetic investment, but it doesn't really say what's special about the thing. There's no real substance to it. Instead, I'd like to hear the kids say, "I like the way this helps me to imagine," or, "I feel really happy when I play with this." The entire concept of "hard work" is something we aim to improve, just as you're saying here, because "hardness" isn't a sign of the work's value. Yes, and I think conscious language can bring more meaning, more truth, and there is freedom in this.
