Language matters

Language matters! How we talk about ourselves, others, and our future. It matters.

Compare:

"I will try hard to do it" to "I will do it."

"I suck at this" to "I have not yet mastered it."

"You are a terrible writer" to "Your writing can be improved and I am here to help you."

How we talk to ourselves and others literally creates the future and defines who we are. What are you creating with your language?
